Axiom Home Page Forums General Discussion The Water Cooler Favourite Guitar Riff/Solo

Thats funny! Neither of those bands were one hit wonders or even close to it. I know what you mean though. The funny thing is that the first album I owned was CSNY Deja Vu, pretty far from the other stuff I listened to.

Fred, I wasn't inferring that either Abba or the Bee Gees were "one hit" bands. I mean like, your Gloria Gaynor, Sister Sledge types. Omg, why do I remember these people?

To be fair, I do enjoy AC/DC quite a bit. In small quantities.

Here's a pretty heavy riff and a favourite solo of mine by Rush

Well, you scared me Fred. I was afraid my aging memory had failed me once more. Happily (and surprisingly), it hadn't.

Dewey Martin, Messina, Neil Young, Richie Furay, Steven Stills


And, thanks for mentioning Chet Atkins. Truly a guitar virtuoso.

Don't worry. I think I'm the only one who likes her that much, and it doesn't hurt my feelings when other people fail to see her in the same way. I'm sure I would think you're crazy for some of your crushes, too.

I feel like I did music a great disservice by not immediately thinking of the greatest surf guitar band of all time.

Walk Don't Run, Hawaii Five-O, Apache, Wipe Out... The Ventures.

Take me to Surfin' Turf, the Ventures capital of the world.

I have no idea to what you refer.

Bren R.

Nothing. You just said the word "surf," which made me think of "surf 'n' turf," which sounded like it could be a place they hail from, and venture capital was something else.
