it's not your everyday type music it's kinda abstract, i Dk but i like that type of stuff. re;axing get lost music. pictures without visuals...feelmea

I hear you, I never really gave it a good focused listen, I'll put it back in the queue... and try and be in the right state of mind. you advocate the 'Runt (the 2nd)'? or should I be looking for another album?

Yeah, early Genesis with Peter Gabriel on vocals was definitely sick.
"The Lamb Lies Down On Broadway" is a really good album, and so was "A Trick Of The Tail".

10 years after

All of the names people laid out are good ,but with rock music in general , you have to be careful cause there are so many rock records with so many nice looking covers ,but alot of them are wack imo.Where as with soul music it's the other way around.With rock records it's best to listen before buying because like i said, there soooo many of them.

i recommend a site called the breaks

"10. Watch the year. Other's will of course will disagree with this time-line, but I think you will be best off if you stick to these years:

Funk, Soul and R&B: 1968-1974
Jazz: 1968-1974
Rock and Pop: 1970-1979"

I'd just get a bunch of rock music in bulk buys if it were up to me. Won't even matter if they're classics, or the worst band you've ever heard, but just see if you can find any break, chord, vocal, solo that you can put to use. Rock had a bunch of evolutions from it's beginning to it's current state (most of it that emo **** that needs to die now), so it really might depend on the sound you're after. Your best bet might just be to spend a hour or more just going from record to record, song to song, and see if anything grabs you. Maybe some band you've never heard of has something that you can build a beat from. I'm getting a bunch of records from my dad for free, so when I get a Technic 1200, mixer and mpc, I'll be doing that first......Just digging.....

also to add to this,is have a look in the credits on artists you listen to and see what artsits they sampled when they recorded what style of rock etc, you cant go wrong with Prog rock, led zepperlin etc. but then again you may dig some of that early ice t stuff that has a bit of a metal influence. its all subjective see i love jazz but only to listen to i cant get influenced to make a beat cos i like a heavy sound
