I'm a bit too old for AC/DC to have been a part of my youth, although I like a few songs. Ramones were a huge life-changer.

The specifics are these, which is those principles I described (Dan Peterson), Wednesday, 19 September 2012 18:59 (eleven years ago) link

both great but CCR's insane short period of genius is one of the great accomplishment of rock n roll

I've tried to get into Motorhead and Thin Lizzy, but so far they haven't really clicked beyond the most obvious songs/albums (same with Deep Purple). Whereas as far as my listening habits go, AC/DC and Ramones remain a satisfyingly monolithic body of work.

CCR rulesl, but they're a different kind of band.

i pull pints in a corporate bar and we have both motorhead and metallica beers on tap. ac/dc would never sell out to craft beer fuckery.

AC/DC's wine range launched in 2011 (and STILL doesn't have a Whole Lotta Rosé)

Their lager came out from Karlsberg in 2015

Still no best-of album though, right?

Not officially, but there is Who Made Who and the Iron Man 2 soundtrack.

add böc to the list of “only rock bands worth listening to” you cowards

jolene club remix (BradNelson), Sunday, 7 April 2019 16:00 (five years ago) link

If we try hard, we can get the list up to four or five.

clemenza, Sunday, 7 April 2019 16:37 (five years ago) link

BOC is the cutoff. No more rock bands worth listening to.

glad we can find some middle ground on this pressing matter.

I agree, CCR is the <3 and I would vote for them over Thin Lizzy, but there are moments where Phil Lynott’s voice just gets me in a way that Fogerty can’t (and never really tries to).

Those two bands have two of my favorite rhythm sections: so tough, but still lithe.
