A little of both, back in the early 70's, Plant's voice was higher like Kiszka.

Is this genre called metalneck?

I'm a 60's rock and roller, Cream, Led Zeppelin, Blind Faith etc and in my opinion good music is good music, period it doesn't matter what genre' it is. if it's good its good.

Anyone who listens to Bluegrass understands that the "pickers" literally ROCK their guitar, mandolin, banjo or bass. I have heard 80 year old guitar pickers play runs that most rock guitar "masters" would be proud of.

All brought to the hills of North Carolina, Kentucky and Tennessee by the Scots. :)

I'd heard Tyler Childers before but it hadn't really grabbed me. I watched this video the other day and it put me down the rabbit hole and now I'm on day 2 of a Tyler Childers bender.

This dude is awesome.

MANY MANY THANKS for all the great leads!

I am very grateful to all of you for the bands and the discussion about them as well.

Keep them coming!

Think rockabilly and Chuck Berry and Elvis. No reason country cant meld with metal.

Going through and giving out Rep when I found this post.

Have you guys seen "The Ronnie Wood Show"? I found it on some Music channel on our cable provider. I guess he has a radio show so they video him too and he has a guest on every week, they play pieces of different songs, talk about their influences and play along and tell stories. I have been hooked on it.

Plus he had Steve Cropper on a week or so back. I just saw Steve play when he came into town with Dave Mason. We have a great old theater in a small town way west of Chicago and they have these oldies acts come through and they all do a great job. Not the greatest concert I ever went to but I marked them off the list. Steve told some of the same stories and made others longer and told some different ones. He was the best of the guest on Ronnies show.

I need to re-listen and see the comparison. I love me Led Zep! My brother's favorite band because of me. :clap:

We've played some festivals with Cornmeal, fun band. If you're from Chicago, maybe you've seen Steepwater Band? Fantastic group, great guys. Jeff Massey came down and played guitar on some tracks for our new album.

My best friend from the old neighborhood used to be married to Paul Jackson's cousin, so I've been seeing Blackberry Smoke since they were playing to 50 people at Knuckleheads. We've played some shows with them too, and I even got them on archive.org :

Most of the KC/Como/StL area shows were taped by me; Sept 2014 in Lawrence and CoMo especially hot, along with StL 2015.
