Grateful Dead -Live/Dead
The "true" essence of the Dead. An exceptional live album, cosmic, hallucinatory, immense. Just the presence of Dark Star would justify its purchase. Released by the band primarily to pay off debts after they spent a fortune on recording studios. Then Hart's father, their manager, also got involved, disappearing with the money... more
Children of Bodom
To be avoided like the plague more
The Beatles
I am history! more
Duane Eddy
together with Dick Dale, he is the godfather of Surf Music more
Debaser
the best site for music and various arts, democratic where everyone can express everything and this democracy makes the site truly reputable when it comes to music, but if someone makes a wrong definition or one that does not align with the history of rock, why should they be stoned? wouldn't it be better to give them advice and help them instead of ridiculing them? more
Alfred Hitchcock
master of fear and thrill, he could terrify audiences even with a door moving on its own. Incredible! more
Pier Paolo Pasolini
great poet and writer, he would improvise his films with random actors and immense masterpieces would emerge. more
Kubrick
the greatest director of all time, took care of each of his films personally and obsessively, from the strictly period costumes to the photography and editing, a 360° artist. more
Rush
a legendary group made up of three monsters of skill. Metal has never been the same since them. more
The Chantays
surf group that has stepped outside traditional electric norms to embrace a delicate soundscape and the use of keyboards that are foreign to surf standards. their sole album Pipeline contains gems of incomparable beauty. more
The Ventures
not exactly Surf, in the beginning everything was instrumental rock, then they rightfully entered the scene even though they don’t like being labeled as Surf.
great performers, spectacular, legendary tracks more
The Shadows
A true puzzle for historians of the seventh art. They are surf but they are English! Did they invent the passetto (see FBI) or their legendary rivals Ventures (see walk on run)? Was the American surf scene influenced by them or vice versa? more
Pink Floyd
huge. But if they had lived in America without the hyper-technological English studios, without their legendary overdubs that have covered their backsides multiple times, maybe we would be talking about something else or maybe they would have taken a different musical path.....who knows..... more
The Beach Boys
group unjustly labeled as Surf (real surf has no vocals) assemblers of styles and sounds taken a bit from here and a bit from there, ridiculous in their imitation of the English psychedelic scene that was so popular at the time. more
Jefferson Airplane
overrated group from the California west coast. great artists but if Grace hadn't brought those two magical pieces she inherited from the other group she came from, maybe we’d be talking about a legend. more
Nick Mason
an excellent drummer but not a virtuoso, better than Phil Collins, but sometimes the incapacity and simplicity of execution have a better effect more
David Gilmour
not a virtuoso of the instrument, timid in the approach to the instrument, but his technical incapacity, fervent imagination, and Barrett's dictates have synergistically created his splendid sound. more
Led Zeppelin
great in blues rock and also in folk, but if they hadn't had the driving force of the Yardbirds, if they hadn't copied the intro of stairway to heaven and various things, maybe we would be talking about good followers but not about a legendary band. more
Bob Marley & The Wailers
immense artist who has internationalized Reggae as a whole. But let's not forget that underworld of like-minded musicians who coexisted in the Jamaican scene, unjustly forgotten and terribly exploited by overseas record labels. more
Caducity
Interesting death metal with epic tones. more
