Top 5 Bands of all time?

Alan said:
Just unbelievably ashamed of this forum that I am going to be the one to mention Iron Maiden.

Probably Powerslave (1985). Though personally I think Somewhere In Time (1987) has become my favorite of theirs. Or Killers (1981).

They are in my top 10 no doubt. Bruce Dickinson is ageless.
 
Who said I don’t like Dickinson??
 
You said his voice was shit. You even posted his singing wasn’t great on Live After Death and Beast Over Hammersmith.
 
I do think his voice wasn’t at it’s best during Live After Death, but I’ve never ever said he’s shit and I certainly wouldn’t talk poorly about Beast Over Hammersmith. That performance went hard as fuck.

Gamma Ray-Heading for Tomorrow

These are some solid ones also.

Hypertrace is massively underrated. Anything Kai Hansen does is ace. Two great calls. If I wasn’t in Oz and you in the States a few beers and music discussion would be in order
 
Read something over the weekend about Paul McCartney complaining over the length of some concerts, some of which seem to run for 4 hours or so.
I never realised but he said that quite often the Beatles would go out and play for about 30 minutes then that was it!
30 fucking minutes!! and of course got well paid for it!
 
Quite often they pretended to play, crowds so loud they couldn’t hear the band
 
Turned out that Ringo was, whilst being a bang average drummer, was a brilliant human being.
When Harry Nilsson got a phone call from his bank saying he was seriously overdrawn, ("What!!! What are you talking about?") he found out he was broke when his dirty accountant had syphoned off all of his millions and he was in the process of buying his family a nice big house in Los Angeles that he'd designed and built, Ringo stepped up and bought him (a smaller, but perfectly lovely) house near where he wanted to be living.
Now there's a good friend.
Average drummer, but a great guy.
 
No way is Ringo an average drummer, there’s videos on YouTube by drummers explaining how good a drummer he actually is, he’s the reason a lot of famous drummers became drummers.
Don’t use the when asked if Ringo was the best drummer in the world John Lennon replied ‘ he’s not even the best drummer in the Beatles’ quote, because that’s a Jasper Carrott joke from the 80s
 
Other bang average drummers talking about the bang average Ringo on his induction to the Rock 'n' Roll Hall of Bang Averageness:

 
They actively headhunted him as well, just because they knew how good he was, and how much better they’d be with him in the Beatles.
 
Oh no no no, very underrated was Ringo. Half hour spots were typical in those days.
