Ok. Here's your musical question of the day. A site I visit that is a bittorrent site for bootleg music occasionally will offer collections created by fans.

Like someone who created their own set of CDs to catalog Neil Young over the years.

Anyways, this last weekend offered up a volume of Dylan collections. All centered around Freddy Koella as the guitarist.

Do you guys know what the significance is of Freddy? I've never heard of him before.

>>>Just like anyone did Dylan's songs better than mr. Zimmerman himself. Not that the music is comparable, of course. Actually, once 120/12V did his song, they screwed it totally by adding about twenty unnecessary yeahiyeahiyeahs.

>>>BTW, seeing you're into mains/battery, how many good acoustic songs did they make? In your opinion, that is.

>>I don't remember a single one. I dig Zimmerman for turning on (off?) his fanbase by using amplifiers.

>That's my reason for still thinking that Zeppelin were a great band - because they did acoustic too, and did them quite well, and even put them on their regular albums. They never had this "we're a hardrock/heavymetal/justmetal/heavymental band, we don't do acoustic" attitude. They just did the music they liked.

>The latter hard/heavy/etc bands just imitated what they (or their producers) thought would sell well. No guts to do an experiment. I'm waiting for years for someone to combine heavy guitars with a cool voice of, say, Amanda Lear or Leonard Cohen, or just to play heavy without screaming. They barely push a single finger out of the cage of their genre. Which isn't rock'n'roll then IMO, it's just moneymaking.

>Which means that I still don't distinguish G'n'R from AC/DC, and think that they had a total of one good song (November rain, whichever of the two it was).
