Harry P. Posted May 15, 2016 Author Posted May 15, 2016 Dave Edmunds and Nick Lowe got together and formed Rockpile in about 1980 or so. It didn't last, they only put out two albums, but they were good.
Harry P. Posted May 15, 2016 Author Posted May 15, 2016 And speaking of Nick Lowe... again, technically not a band, but I just love this song. And even though I was never a fan of music videos, this is one I actually like.
Petetrucker07 Posted May 15, 2016 Posted May 15, 2016 Im not a fan of the Beetles, neither were my parents. I understand they were big, people liked them, they're just not my cup of tea. Zeppelin is a bit played out for me. Im not all that crazy about Floyd. Of the "big 4" from Britain, I understand they were very popular, still are, but I prefer the Stones over the others. Judas Priest, Iron Maiden, Motorhead, Def Leppard, Thunder (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=87BRGJf3wTU), Grim Reaper (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IGvU4XXntMk) and AC/DC. I don't care for the Beatles at all (and neither did my parents), and I'm not big on Pink Floyd. I can handle the Stones, and like a lot of Zepplin.

PowerPlant Posted May 15, 2016 Posted May 15, 2016 Adding to Metallica A great band indeed, but last time I checked Metallica was from California, not Britain
GTJUNIOR Posted May 15, 2016 Posted May 15, 2016 Manfred Mann You might be interested to know that Manfred Mann was actually born in South Africa, as was Peter Gabriel.
slusher Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 You might be interested to know that Manfred Mann was actually born in South Africa, as was Peter Gabriel. I just looked up Manfred Mann the group. The group is listed as English out of London. I guess i must be taking part in to many topics so i will not be trying to participate in any more music boards. So i am sorry
slusher Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 A great band indeed, but last time I checked Metallica was from California, not Britain I made a mistake. Harry please delete Metallica Videos for me...I do apologize.
Harry P. Posted May 16, 2016 Author Posted May 16, 2016 I made a mistake. Harry please delete Metallica Videos for me...I do apologize. Yeah, Metallica is from LA. No problem, Carl. Nobody's perfect.
slusher Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 Yeah, Metallica is from LA. No problem, Carl. Nobody's perfect. I looked them up and they are american. Bad weekend for me been in bed almost all weekend with MS.
maltsr Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 I looked them up and they are american. Bad weekend for me been in bed almost all weekend with MS.No worries Carl, they were probably influenced by some of the British metal bands listed here. Hope you are feeling better, my friend.

So i am sorryWhen I said that he was born in South Africa, I did not mean to imply that the band was South African. They are very much a British band as Manfred moved to the UK when he was still in his teens. I was merely adding an interesting fact to the post. It seems that I may have been misinformed regarding Peter Gabriel being South African born. My apologies. Edited May 16, 2016 by GTJUNIOR
iamsuperdan Posted May 16, 2016 Posted May 16, 2016 Yeah, Metallica is from LA. No problem, Carl. Nobody's perfect. San Fran actually. Well...they moved to San Fran before they were signed. It was the only way Cliff would join the band. And now they're known as a Bay Area band.
Harry P. Posted May 16, 2016 Author Posted May 16, 2016 I looked them up and they are american. Bad weekend for me been in bed almost all weekend with MS.I hope you're feeling better soon, Carl. We're all pulling for you.
