[1093]

Okay, /{D so } we've got to talk about music. /

[1167]

Okay. /

[1093]

{C And, } {F um, } do you like classic rock, or modern rock, or which kind? /No, /not a seventies baby. /

[1167]

{D Well, } {D no } that's ] really when I grew up, /{C so } that's really what I like better, /is that kind of music , /{E I mean, } -/

[1093]

Is it disco, /or is it like, -/

[1167]

No, /no, /no, /not that kind of music . /

[1093]

{C but, } -/

[1167]

No, /more like, {F uh, } rock, {F um, } {D you know, } like Led Zepplin type . /

[1093]

{F Oh, } okay. /[ {C So, } + {C so } ] they can get {D like } the Doors and Led Zepplin. /

[1167]

Right. /

[1093]

Yeah, /that's cool. /

[1167]

Right. /

[1093]

{C And, } how about the Rolling Stones? /

[1167]

{F Oh, } sure, /sure /I went to their concert last year when they were here. /

[1093]

{F Oh, } [ that's when, + that's when ] they [ took, + toured. ] /How about, {F um, } Pink Floyd? /

[1167]

Sure, /yeah, /I like them. /

[1093]

Okay. /[ {C So, } + {C so } ] then [ we got, + we got ] some same things /{C because, } -/

[1167]

Okay, /{D well, } I just didn't know that much about music /{C and } I wasn't sure what kind of music. /

[1093]

No, /it's very hard /{C because, } {D see, } {D well, } {E I mean, } in the whole spectrum I'd rather listen, {D you know, } - /I listen to heavy metal or classic rock. /

[1167]

[ What, + what ] kind of heavy metal are we talking about? /What, -/

[1093]

We're talking about [ what they, + what they ] call hard rock. /

[1167]

Okay, /{D like, } give me some examples. /

[1093]

{D Like, } for example, let's see, {F uh, } Bad Company, /what, -/

[1167]

{F Oh, } {D well, } Bad [ Cam-, + Company's ] not bad, /that's not, /

[1093]

{D well, } they're like, for example, A C D C. /

[1167]

Yeah, /A C D C . /

[1093]

Why, /have you heard of them? /

[1167]

Yes . /

[1093]

Okay. /{C And, } stuff like that. /[ [ That's, + that's, ] +

[1167]

{D Well, } okay. /

[1093]

that's ] not really hard rock. /

[1167]

Okay, /I guess I didn't really consider that heavy metal. /

[1093]

Okay. /

[1167]

{E I mean, } [ I, + I ] think, when you say heavy metal, [ I'm, + I'm ] thinking about like Cinderella, {D you know. } /

[1093]

{D Well, } Cinderella [ is, + is ] hard rock, heavy metal. /

[1167]

{D Well, } {D see, } I don't really care for Cinderella . /{C But, } I like A C D C's okay. /

[1093]

{C But, } {D see, } for example, they have, {D see } what, - /{C but } other bands consider it {D like } really hard rock. /It's like brash metal, which all they do is {D like, } they have this guitar and they just bang at the guitar, /{C and } the guitar is set {D like, } really low, /

[1167]

Yeah. /No, /I don't really care for that too much, I guess. /

[1093]

{C and, } what happens is {D like, } {F oh, } everybody gets {D like } totally into the music /{C and then } they start dancing around, /

[1167]

Uh-huh. /

[1093]

{C and } they just bump into each other, /

[1167]

Uh-huh. /

[1093]

[ {D like, } + {D like } ] they hit each other with their shoulders, /

[1167]

Uh-huh. /

[1093]

{C and, then, } you knock people down, /{C and } what you do is, you also try to get up on stage and jump down on top of all these other people. /

[1167]

Is that the kind of music that you like? /

[1093]

No, /I don't like that music. /

[1167]

{F Oh, } okay. /

[1093]

{C But, } [ that's, + that's ] what they do. /[ That's, + that's ] what some people call {D like } really heavy metal. /

[1167]

{F Oh, } okay. /

[1093]

{C And, } {D see, } the difference, I guess, between hard rock and heavy metal is [ that + ] the lyrics also. /{D Like } really, {D like } heavy metal, [ wo-, + is ] considered, {D like } the words heavy metal /{C and, } {D like, } you always thought about, {D like, } suicide. And killing people and stuff like that. /

[1167]

Yeah. /

[1093]

{C And, } just hard rock has, - /[ they, + they ] don't talk about that, /they just talk about, {D like, } life in general. /

[1167]

Right. /

[1093]

Like, Queen's Reich, if you ever heard of them. /

[1167]

{F Oh, } sure. /Of course. /

[1093]

Yeah. /

[1167]

[ Que-, + [ you, + you're ] talking Queen, ] /is that what you said? /

[1093]

Okay, /{D well, } no. /I said Queen's Reich, /[ [ {C but, } +

[1167]

{F Oh, } {F oh, } {F oh, } okay, /

[1093]

{C but, } ] + {F oh, } {C but ] } you got to {D like } Queen also. /

[1167]

Right. /

[1093]

{D So } {C because, } -/

[1167]

{D Well } sure, /{C because } Queen was real popular when I was growing up. /

[1093]

Yeah, /especially, {F uh, } {F oh } God, what is it, A Night At The Opera? /Don't they have a, - /no /let's see, the one that they have [ the, + the ] whole opera singing in the background. /

[1167]

Oh! /

[1093]

[ [ Bo, + Bo, ] + Bohemian ] Rhapsody. /

[1167]

Right, /right, /yeah, /yeah. /

[1093]

Yeah, /[ that, + that ] was great. /I heard that the other day on the radio /{C and } I pumped it up. /

[1167]

.

[1093]

{C Because, } {E I mean, } I just love that song. /

[1167]

Yeah, /[ that, + that ] was a real good one. /

[1093]

Yeah, /{C but } they had, - /[ that, + that ] whole record was pretty good. /{C But then, } they started going downhill like everybody else. /

[1167]

{D Well, } that's true. /They came up with some pretty weird stuff after that. /

[1093]

Yeah, /[ they're, + they're ] still around, /they've got a [ ne-, + new ] C D out, /{C but } [ I, + I ] wouldn't buy it. /{C Because } {D see, } what happens is, the old, {D see } whe-, - /[ I like, + I like ] the old Rolling Stones. /I don't like the new stuff. /

[1167]

Of the Stones? /

[1093]

Yeah. /

[1167]

Yeah. /I agree. /That's the ne-, - /the older stuff is the best of it. /[ The, + the ] new stuff's kind of more like, today's rock and roll, which I,

[1093]

Yeah. /

[1167]

don't really care for today's rock and roll too much. /

[1093]

{D Well, } for example, I used to like old Phil Collins. /

[1167]

Right. /Yes, /definitely. /I agree. /

[1093]

[ {C And, } + {C and, then } ] what happened was that Phil Collins said, hey I can make money, a lot of money doing this, /{C and then } he came out with, {F uh, } {D see, } for example, [ his, + his ] record {D like, } No Jacket Required. /

[1167]

Uh-huh. /

[1093]

That was good, /{C but } it was on his way of going downhill, /{C because } he said, I can make a lot of money just singing alone, /{C and then } he came out with the Invisible Touch, with, {F uh, } Genesis /{C and } that really, - /{D like } now, I hate Phil Collins, /I can't stand him. /

[1167]

Right. /

[1093]

{C Because, } I look at him /{C and } I say, {D you know, } you were singing at this time, and with these people, /{C and } you were great, /{C and } now you're singing all this stuff that, doesn't matter [ what you, + what you ] sing or what you record, /it's still going to be a number one hit. /{C And so, } [ that's, + that's ] what gets me mad. /

[1167]

Yeah. /

[1093]

{C But, } [ did, + did ] you go see that new Doors movie? /

[1167]

No, /not yet. /I guess I've been, [ con-, + kind of considering ] it. /Have you seen it yet? /

[1093]

Yeah. /I saw it when it opened. /

[1167]

Was it really good? /

[1093]

Yeah. /

[1167]

Uh-huh. /

[1093]

{D you know, } {D like } those guys that criticize movies? /

[1167]

Right. /

[1093]

{C And, } they both loved the movie, right? /

[1167]

Uh-huh. /

[1093]

They said the music's great, /it took me back to the sixties, and stuff like that. /

[1167]

Uh-huh. /

[1093]

{C And then, } one of them said, {D well, } everything is great, /{C but } I'm going to give it thumbs down. /{C And } they go, /{C but } why? /{C Because } [ it's + {D like, } the end is, ] {D like, } really depressing. /{C And so, } -/

[1167]

Oh. /

[1093]

[ [ {C But } it, + {C but } it's ] + {D like } the movie is ] so well made, /{C and } the music that goes with it just picks you up, {D see, } - /[ I was never, + I was ] born in nineteen hundred sixty-nine. /

[1167]

{F Oh, } okay. /

[1093]

[ {C So, } + {E I mean, } {C so } ] for me, -/

[1167]

{C So, } you didn't really grow up with that kind of music then. /

[1093]

No, /{C but } you learn to. /{E I mean } it's just that, {D like } [ the, + the ] sixties music's got a lot to say. /

[1167]

Right. /

[1093]

[ I, + I ] never found out what a lot of the seventies music had too. /{D You know, } I was like, -/

[1167]

{D Well } no, /I've never liked disco. /

[1093]

Hey, /{C but } I bet you were out there with your bell bottomed pants, /

[1167]

{D Well, } that's true . /

[1093]

.

[1167]

That's true. /{C But, } I was more in the late seven-, - /{D well, } I shou-, - /{D like } mid to late seventies, {D like } between seventy-five [ and, +

[1093]

Yeah, /yeah. /

[1167]

and, ] seventy-nine, was more my era. /

[1093]

[ Did, + did ] you go to college? /

[1167]

{D Well, } no. /I'm going right now . /

[1093]

{F Oh, } that's cool. /

[1167]

{C But } {F uh, } no /I didn't go then. /{C But } {D see, } I graduated high school in seventy-eight, /

[1093]

Okay. /

[1167]

{C so, } {D you know, } in seventy-eight, {D you know } rock was starting to get really heavy, {D you know, } /{C and } real, {F um, }

[1093]

Yeah, /yeah. /

[1167]

I don't know, /disco was pretty much dead by then. /

[1093]

Yeah. /

[1167]

[ {C So, } + {C so } ] that's what I mean, /disco wasn't really my time. /

[1093]

{D Well, } they always say that the seventies was the lowest point [ in, + in ] progression, ever in history. /{C So, } -/

[1167]

About music? /

[1093]

No, /about everything. /

[1167]

{F Oh. } Okay. /

[1093]

{C So, } it's like, nothing happened during the seventies. /Everything happened during the sixties, /the seventies I don't know what they're called, {D you know, } /it's [ like, + like ] - /[ the, + the ] eighties are called, {D like } the progressive years, [ or the, + or, {D you know, } {D like } the ] technology years,

[1167]

Uh-huh. /

[1093]

because of all the computers and stuff. /{C But } the seventies got nothing. /{E I mean, } nobody cared to name it . /

[1167]

That's kind of funny . /

[1093]

{D So. } /

[1167]

You're right. /I never thought of that. /The disco years, that's what they're calling them,

[1093]

Yeah, /I know. /

[1167]

are gone. /

[1093]

Can you imagine [ the, + {D like } a ] big picture of John Travolta, ta-da, what is it SATURDAY NIGHT FEVER? /Him just standing there. /

[1167]

Yeah, /right. /

[1093]

Yeah, /that's a good example to look for in history. /{D Well, } from now on we're going to go [ from the, + from nineteen sixty-nine ] when they took the first step on the moon, to nineteen eighties. /Okay, /what happened in the middle? /Don't worry, /don't worry, /[ you're not, + you're not ] missing anything, {D you know, } /{C so, } -/

[1167]

That's true. /{D Well, } except for Vietnam. /

[1093]

Yeah, /really. /{C And, } [ that's, +

[1167]

You know with, -/

[1093]

that's ] why I guess, everybody, - /yeah, /it's like they don't want to talk about that, /{C so } they just, don't name it. /{E I mean, } [ [ it was, + it was, ] + I guess it was ] pretty bad times. /

[1167]

Yeah. /{D Well, } that's very true . /{C But, } -/

[1093]

{F Oh, } {D well, } let's see, /yeah, /okay, /we've been talking for seven minutes, /{C so, } -/

[1167]

{F Oh, } good. /I haven't even been keeping track. /

[1093]

Okay, /all right, /{D so } {F um, } I'm going to leave you alone. /{F Uh } [ what, + what ] are you doing? /Do you have a family? /

[1167]

{F Uh, } yeah. /

[1093]

Okay. /

[1167]

[ We're kind of, + I was kind of ] in the middle of supper, /{C but } it's not a big deal, /

[1093]

{F Oh, } I'm sorry. /

[1167]

I just left it. /No, /it's okay, /{C because } {D see } I didn't, {D see } - /somebody tried to call me last night /{C but } I didn't have my number yet, /I just got it today. /
