danexmachina answered Saturday July 9 2005, 7:22 am: most of what you named is classic rock, except for weird al, who plays music parodies (funny versions of other people's songs) and rage against the machine, who play rap-rock that's very influenced by led zeppelin [ danexmachina's advice column | Ask danexmachina A Question ]
K3587 answered Thursday July 7 2005, 2:26 pm: MFS did a great job on the list, allow me to finish it. Rage Against the Machine is a rock/metal band with a side of hip-hop. They always carry a message within their songs. They despise the government, oppression, and other political jargon. I've liked them for sometime, and they were popular back in the day. "Renegades of Funk", "Bulls on Parade", and "Guerrila Radio" are still played on the radio. [ K3587's advice column | Ask K3587 A Question ]

FunnyCide answered Thursday July 7 2005, 1:34 pm: You've got a little rock, classic rock, rap, and a little metal in there. If you put them all on one CD, it'd be a rock/classic rock CD.

MFS answered Wednesday July 6 2005, 11:59 pm: The Dead was a classic hippie jam band.
Zappa was his own thing. He was avante garde rock, he was jazz, he was classical, he was whatever he felt like being. The man was an amazing genius.
Little Feet/Feat - laid-back country/bluegrass/rockabilly/rock band. Hard to pin any particular genre on them.
The Who - Classic rock at its finest. Many modern hard rock bands owe homage to the Who.
Rolling Stones - yet again, classic rock... more blues oriented than The Who, often went head-to-head with the Beatles. I'm not fond of the Stones, mostly because I despise Mick Jagger's "singing".
Led Zeppelin - "heavy progressive blues" - they were a blues band, spun from the Yardbirds. They went in new directions, with a heavy sound that while clearly not exactly metal, was the predecessor to many hard rock and metal bands. Their sound is still imitated by many to this day.
Pat Benetar - former opera student with a huge vocal range. Fell in love with rock. She's a damn good performer and an amazing singer.
Carlos Santana - merged the worlds of late 60s classic rock and blues with latin music. Often considered an early pioneer of "world music". His band often includes many amazing musicians, and his rhythm section is always suprerb. His early material I feel is too often overlooked due to some of his recent commercial successes with his collaborations with modern artists. Santana is an amazing guitarist and well worth listening to: check out <I>Freedom</I> and <I>Abraxas</I>.
Rage Against the Machine - I have never followed them enough to form an opinion.
Jimi Hendrix - guitar virtuoso who pushed what the instrument can do, as well as pushed what could be accomplished in the studio. He was a true visionary and revolutionary. Died far too young for stupid reasons (drugs). His legacy continues to inspire many a guitarist, both new and established.
Have any specific questions, by all means, ask me.
p.s. - dude... I can't believe I forgot to address Weird Al. The dude is waaay too smart for his own good, and is a genius of parody. Quite silly, sometimes so subtle in his message that people totally miss his point. Hillarious none the less. [ MFS's advice column | Ask MFS A Question ]
