Title: Defining Photos of Rock
Post by: soundgarden on July 10, 2011, 03:35:16 PM
No photo exhibits more of what the soul of Rock and Roll is (and all sub-genres) then these two of Hendrix and Tina Turner.

**Don't post generic live performance shots, even if it is really cool.  Only photos/paintings that express the heart and soul of everything rock (however you may define that)

Yes, I did, and there's nothing that can be done to reverse it's having happened.  Much as Love Beach will forever remain in the rectum of the colon of disappointments in the history of rock. 

With that said, here's a serious entry:

Nice!  I always wished Morrison had stayed in that band longer, as I really felt she added a new dimension to that band which made Floodland such a fantastic record.  I guess between his ego and his inability to pay people for services provided, Eldritch had a way of making people not want to work with him again.  Oh well..............  :(

Same. She fit the band so well, music-wise and image-wise. Eldritch always made everything so chaotic for everyone involved with the process of each album. I love the man, but I don't think I'd ever wanna work with him on anything.

Great to see another Sisters of Mercy fan on here, by the way. :tup

It's hard to imagine today, but in 1975 when this album came out, the cover shot was nothing short of mindblowing.  The costumes, the smoke and lights, the overall feeling of organized chaos.  Say what you will about their music, but KISS did a lot to put proto-metal in the public eye.

If we're doing a round of fill-in-the-blanks, my guess is "horrendous rap cliche"

You say cliche, I say every single rap song on the radio.

And I say I agree, as every single rap song on the radio is a shallow-cliche-storm.

So aside from a chat thread, I guess this has turned into a "post pictures of artists you like" thread?

Wait, you mean it wasn't a chat/"post pictures of artists you like" thread?

Every thread is a "Tease Ravehart" thread.  You can try making fun of him.

There was teasing going on? Where was I?

Nothing to be concerned bout.  We (except for you, since you were gone) were making fun of this hipster-guy.  His name was Ravehart, or something gothic like that.  It was so bad, he left.  If he comes round again, feel free to beat on him.

Of all the pictures in this thread, I'd say about 4.5 are definitive.

Which 4.5?  (Was my Queen pic one of them by any chance?)

Bryan Adams would win this thread with some simple digging.
Though most of your photos are pretty cool.

Honestly, I assumed that pictures posted did not have to be "classic" or popular, just that they had to have that certain rock feel.

I think when you think of defining, some think of iconic which lends to the classic band.  Though some of the last decade certainly look iconic in years to come.

This did it for me. I don't think it can be described as a generic live shot.

I really can't tell who it is due to the image being small, and such.

Aha, now I get it; it's short-haired Mercury.  (I've always been more familiar with the long-haired version of him from 71-80)

I chose the image because, to me, it was a truly defining rock moment, one of the greatest live acts owning two stadiums and millions of viewers across the globe.  Plus, every time I watch Freddie and the 100,000 plus at Wembley clapping in unison during the chorus, I get tears, every time.

Considering the magnitude of Live Aid, I can get where you're coming from.  Same for Wembley, it being their final tour.  (I DO NOT count the Paul Rodgers collab as Queen.  Because it's not.)

Oh man lonestar.  Home run.  The sea of hands clapping was a goosebump moment for me.
