I can understand that.

I've recently rediscovered my love for ZZ Top.
Anyone else like them?

I do! Currently i have 6 of their albums and while any of them is a "good listen", my faves are clearly ELIMINATOR and AFTERBURNER; two solid records (real close stylewise) that i enjoy playing consecutively, as if they were one double LP... For me, Need you tonight and especially Rough boy have a great nostalgic/emotional vibe to them*. But the first ZZ Top song i ever heard was, of course, La Grange (in 1974, i was 17)... Man, that was "powerful"!!

*Rock based songs with a slow-paced beat often have a lasting effect on me; for example, Def Leppard's poignant Miss you in a heartbeat (1993) still gives me the shivers anytime i hear it

A true great, check out eponymously named first album, a cool cover and great music. I had the privilege of meeting him backstage after a gig many years ago in the UK. A lovely gentle man, another who sadly never received the level of global acclaim his talent deserved. Was offered the Stones gig after Brian Jones died but declined - probably to avoid embarrassing Keef....

I love ZZ Top .........but I like their older stuff better (from Deguello or Tres Hombres, for example). One of my faves that I just listened to, was "Ten Foot Pole"

I grew up with the long hair, flared trousers, bombastic epic progressive rock and love most of it to this day.
Anyway....the piano intro to Genesis' Firth of Fifth from Selling Englan By the Pound album has always been a favourite and now I am finally learning piano, I have set myself the challenge to play the piece within 12 months.
Check out this link on YouTube (hope this is allowed to namecheck???) to see how it can and should be done:

Find the you tube clip you want to post.
The URL for Adele clip above is: http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=bgGidGBe0T8

That end code is the bit you insert into the BBcode instruction for embedding youtube clips:
[ youtube]>>>The Youtube code goes in this bit<<<[ /youtube]

but without the gaps shown here: [ youtube]bgGidGBe0T8[ /youtube]

Do it properly and Adele should start singing!
If not, then copy the title of the youtube clip and paste it into the youtube search bar.
You should find that clip again in the search results, but this time with a usable code.
