to like every song by one singer, good, bad, or indifferent, I don’t understand that.
I don’t have the “fan” mentality
as a guitar player who was told a bunch of times that “you’re a dime a dozen” by singers that are no longer around & I’M STILL HERE.
sorry I get carried away as a musician who plays and is still a student of the insturment going on 40+ years.
singers are a dime a million.
just look at that kareoke (sp) show on TV.
when I see the ads for it I want to throw up.

I’M WITH YOU ON THIS ONE 100% I am with the ok Blue Hall of Fame and -truwst me on this—they ALL write a few clinkers! The fact that i almost NEVER find an album that i like ALL the songs on is why i lOVE downloads—pay for the tune i LIKE—why pay $15 for a cd with THREE songs that i lkike!

Gotta go with the Traveling Willburys on this one!! Who’s not to like. Jeff Lynn from E.L.O., Roy Orbison, Tom Petty, Bob Dillon, and Ringo Starr. I bought every song that was available on I-Tunes.

I don’t think Ringo was involved with the Travelling Willburys…

You are absolutely correct. He has never been a part of the Wilburys. George Harrison, however… [:)]

There are a lot of people mentioned on this thread that I
have never heard of. I never knew there was a Deathcab for Cutie.

And as long as my CD keeps playing the music of Frankie, etc—
I will never hear of them except if I go back into the Roadfood archives and dig up this thread. Play it again Sam, play “As Time Goes By”. I love that movie “The Maltese Falcon”.

Jan & Dean
Buddy Holly
Roy Orbison

I agree on these three.

To them I will add:

Connie Francis
The Everly Brothers
Emmylou Harris
The Aquatones (doo wop from 1958 or so)
Five Discs
Norman Fox and the Rob Roys
Oesch’s Die Dritten
The Mystics
The Tokens
The Shirelles
Slim Whitman
Shania Twain
The Danleers
Conway Twitty
Marty Robbins
Sweethearts of the Rodeo
Patty Loveless

Your list is interesting. When I saw this thread when it first started, I meant to post, but got busy and then forgot. The group on your list that I would have posted is Sweethearts of the Rodeo. I’m shocked that someone agreed with me. They were a victim of timing. When it came to awards, they were always up against the likes of The Judds and Brooks and Dunn.

I would add Dylan but some of his stuff is just terrible and you cannot understand what he is saying.
I will listen to almost every Beatles song and know all the words.

Watch the video for End of the Line on VH1 Classic and tell me who is drumming in the back round. It sure looks like Ringo to me. I did forget to mention George Harrison though. Thanks for the refresher.

David O.

He may have made a guest appearance, but according to the Wilburys website he was never a member. [:)]

Jim Keltner is listed as the Drummer for the Traveling Wilburys but, he was a studio musician for three of the original Beatles excluding Paul. It may very well have been that Ringo made a guest appearance on the video as they worked together closely for a number of years.

Or… maybe it was Pete Best trying to ???
