Jul 26, 2008 - Occidental harmony is born and based on the BASS. All of Bach's works rely heavily on the basso continuo, even the violin solo works have some form of bass in them. And Bach has influenced every single composer this side of the world since Mendelsohn, and then some. Historic fact.I understand you may not like some genre, but don't call it a waste of time unless it is My Chemical Romance.

Jul 26, 2008 - Every musical genre will have one or more instruments that dominate. That is part of what makes for a different sound. What does a "real band" actually mean? It's subjective. MCR is heavily guitar-based. Does that make it less of a musical genre because it doesn't include strings, brass, woodwinds, etc.? A classical enthusiast could say MCR does not create real music using your same argument targeting different instruments.

Jul 26, 2008 - u idiot, MCR sucks.this is music. "..just bass and drums.." what do you want to play?just because there isnt a metal fast guitar solo this one is not music?learn something.listen to hendrix, he was/is the greatest guitarist of all the time but his guitar solo are not just loud and fast.he used solo drums and bass as well.

Jul 26, 2008 - This was when people took instruments to the show to take part in the show!!Tambarines,whitsles,cowbells,maracas,blocks,you name it and it was brought to the show.Nowadays I guess people think since I have to pay so much to see you,you better do everything!!

Jul 26, 2008 - the reason we werent listening to funk was cos of ska reggae and punk there was a whole different seen going on. And a s for no black kids around at the time, how the fuck do you explain all the race equality marches and the fukin brixton riots?

basslord7188 Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - This is good music, but Hendrix is not the best guitarist. Most influencial maybe, but not the best.

acidtones1 Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Bootsy Collins sure is awesome though.

Sypher474 Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Who would you suggest is the best in that case?

jangofettish1 Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Did that get started because of Kool and the Gang ? I seem to remember people doing a lot of that with the percussion instruments and whistles when they came out with "Funky Stuff".

ijb446 Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - Are you fuckn joking?

Pootjuice Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - I Don't know if it started with them or not Ijust remember as a kid seeing my people go out to shows and they would take stuff with them!!This was during the mid to late 70's.I do remember Richard Pryor telling someone blowing a whistle on one of his LIVE records,"THIS AIN'T KOOL IN THE GANG MOTHERF#@$ER!!",so maybe they did start it??Let me know what you find!!

bestkepsecret Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - I was just thinking if Bootsy and Hendrix were the same person, cause I love them both, man, I feel them so much that its like sometimes when I'm hanging out with them I get amnesia and so now I was like, hey Jimmy, or something, but yeah, Jimmy Hendrix is in some sense part of the funk soul brotha order amen

jkosciol Says:

Jul 26, 2008 - I bet Jimi and Bootsy would've have a blast playing together
