| Chase | Chase is a group founded by Bill Chase, an excellent trumpet player. Chase
plays jazz/rock fusion with asound eminiscent of Blood Sweat and Tears or
older Chicago rock songs. Some of the members of the band died in a plane
crash in the early 1970s which led to the demise of the band itself.
| | DC Talk | DC Talk is one of only a few Christian Rock bands that I can stand to listen
to. Most Christian musicians provide plenty of word with little musicality to
back it up. Jars of Clay is probably the best Christian contemporary band out
there. But DC Talk ranks right up there in the number two spot. DC Talk plays
rock, ballads, and even does some rap. I normally HATE rap, but I find that
the rap that DC Talk does is entertaining and tasteful. I hope you will enjoy
their music as well.
| | Deep Blue Something | Deep Blue Something is a band that has lighthearted songs that kind of remind me
of a light and happy High School band. Their music is not heavy, nor is it
slow and sappy. It is kind of uplifting and joyful. Their instrumentation is
very good, and they have an interesting musical style. Despite being much newer than the classic rock I usually listen to, I still enjoy their music very much.
| | Dishwalla | | | Jars Of Clay | Jars of Clay is a contemporary Christian rock band that, unlike many Christian
artists, manages to produce music that is interesting to listen to, as well as
incorporating the message of God. Their musical style could be described as
alternative (although alternative is pretty mainstream these days). They have
a good mix of reasonably complex rock arrangements, and also some softer
ballads with acoustic guitar and a quieter tone. Their message about God is
consistent throughout, but to me it seems like their music comes about as a
result of their experience with God, rather than just singing a song about
God, which is what most other Christian musicians sound like to me. I believe
Jars of Clay music is music which even non-Christians would find interesting.
| | Pink Floyd | Pink Floyd is probably my all time favorite group. Their albums span four
decades of rock history and contain psychedelic, rock, classic rock, symphonic
and even some disco. Although Roger Waters and the rest of Pink Floyd
eventually separated due to personality conflicts, their music stylings
interplayed perfectly. They are known for album oriented rock, meaning that
the entire album had a theme, and made most sense when played in sequence.
Particularly, their double album, The Wall was even made into a movie,showing
just how much of a storyline an album could have. Animals, was of course, also
an entire album about different kinds of animals, while also being a social and
political commentary. I hope that you will purchase Pink Floyd albums and
enjoy them as much as I have. Oh, yeah, contrary to what you may have heard,
you don't have to do drugs to enjoy this music.
| | David Gilmour | | | Joe Walsh | Joe Walsh is a former member of the Eagles and the James Gang. He is best known for songs such as Rocky Mountain Way and Life's Been Good. He is an excellent
guitar player, not known for blinding solos, but more for soulfull slide guitar.
He is an interesting person outside of the music realm as well, having appeared
on the Drew Carey show for s short stretch, and also guest hosting the Steve
Dahl show on WCKG in Chicago.
| | Roger Waters | Roger Waters was the bass player and lead singer for Pink Floyd until he left
the band due to personality conflicts. Some of his solo work is pretty good,
though not as good as David Gilmour's in my opinion. His solo work, much like
Pink Floyds albums, are usually focused on a theme.
