Something a little different - pick out 5 tracks you like that you think would go well together, or make a nice mix. Only qualification is, each track must be longer than 5 minutes.....
OK, here's mine.....
Sad Eyed Lady Of The Lowlands - Dylan
Kashmir - Led Zep
Mother Of Pearl - Roxy Music
Heard It Through The Grapevine - CCR
Knockin' On Your Back Door - Deep Purple
About 48 minutes there......which is at least 10 minutes more than you got on most albums, back in the 70's!
:D :D :D

Calvary - Quicksilver
Dark Star Live - Grateful Dead

Disqualifying it. I'll replace it with...)

Of course any fan of Miles Davis' *itches Brew is familliar with Soft Machine's Third album.
Those four songs PLUS Davis' *itches Brew.

Well, seeing as Rush is so different from most of my other favorite bands, I'd basically have to do a Rush and a non-Rush. Anyway, the Rush one is pretty easy:
La Villa Strangiato - 9:34
2112 - 20:34
The Main Monkey Business - 6:01
Natural Science - 9:17
Secret Touch - 6:36
The non-Rush would take a lot more thought, so maybe I'll get back to ya on that one. =) Interesting thread here!

Ha, I was going to list all RUSH songs too. Well, some non-Rush faves:
George Thorogood - One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer - 8 minutes or so
Joe Satriani - Flying in a Blue Dream (Live) - 8+
Aztec Camera - We Could Send Letters - just under 6
Squeeze - Black Coffee In Bed - 6+
Waterboys - Sweet Thing - 7+
"Everybody got to elevate from the norm."
Frank Zappa - Son of Mr Green Genes
Al Stewart - Love Chronicles
Neil Young - Like a hurricane
Rolling Stones - Sympathy for the devil
Renaissance - Island
do the usual addition of a few more :shock:
Family - Good News Bad News
Stone Roses - I am the resurection
Blood Sweat & Tears - Lucretia Mcevil
Zeppellin - Stairway to heaven
Quintessance - Sea of immortality
Lynard Skynard - Freebird
hey Vic..you have cool ideas for threads :))
'Supper's Ready' - Genesis
'Summertime in England' - Van Morrison
'Baker Street Muse' -Jethro Tull
'If there is Something'- Roxy Music
'You Set the Scene' - Love
Gee what a lovely concert should be if I hear this Medley
Just the first 5 off the top of my head:
My Only Love Roxy Music
Down by the River Neil Young
Playmate of the Mouth Procol Harum
When the Train Comes In Sleutelbos
Cousin Dupree Steely Dan
:)
Don
Jesus of Suburbia - Green Day
Homecoming - Green Day
Stairway to heaven - Led Zep
Suite Judy Blue Eyes (by CSNY)
Bohemian Rhapsody - Queen (if you would consider it big)
The going together bit is the hard bit here... Let's see if I can come up with something.
SRV - Riviera Paradise 9m
Jimi Hendrix - Voodoo Chile (the slow version, not the slight return version) 15m
Pink Floyd - Echoes. 22m. Was the entire B-side of Meddle
Phish - Mike's Song (live) 15m or so (I'm sure this one varies)
Grateful Dead - Truckin'. Album version clocks in just over 5m so it's game, but live versions go on and on... The one on Europe 72 is 15m
Total runtime - 76m. If you really want to go overboard, replace Mike's Song with Headphones Jam (also by Phish), and you're somewhere around 100m...
I wanted to throw Jesus of Suburbia on there, but I don't think it goes with the rest...
I thought about doing an all Floyd mix... it would go something like this:
Pink Floyd - Shine on You Crazy Diamond (1-5)
Pink Floyd - Echoes
Pink Floyd - Comfortably Numb
Pink Floyd - Interstellar Overdrive
Pink Floyd - Shine on You Crazy Diamond (6-9)
Hmmm... I may have to set that up as a playlist on my ipod... :)
Rahul, I like your mix, I think that would work pretty well. Stairway would make a decent bridge from the manic Green Day opening to the more mellow CSNY and Queen closers...
TZ
Rats, how could I forget about Pink Floyd !!
Ok here are their tracks -
Comfy Numb
Shine on you crazy diamond
Money
Coming back to life
Another brick in the wall part II
