zim zax- I like jannis - but to me her voice sounds a bit like lorrette lynn.
and the jimmy hendrix experience cd is cool. some of his drug induced rifts are pretty wild, but even his music can get a bit too aggressive for me. I also like some lead zepplin and frank zappa, and jethro tull. deep purple I know I’m forgetting someone.
no, no one that I admire lived into the 80’s except david gilmore. (pink floydd). although there was a time in my unfortunate youth that I listened to van halen, def leopard, twisted sister, Quiet riot, black sabbath (with ozzy and rodney james dio), ozzy, dio, motley crue, poison, white snake, guns n roses, slayer, megadeath, white zombie, bio hazard, alice in chains, faith no more, canibal corpse, metallica and others- but then I stopped being a communist , cut my hair and got a job. unfortunately the tattoos are not so easy to take off.
