Muzz Posted February 8, 2008 Report Share Posted February 8, 2008 (edited) What's up with the dork in the hat?Is nobody real anymore,or is it all just an act for money? I am guessing that back when the young Slash was Saul, he listened to one of the all time classic albums and looked at the cover. In a blinding flash of epiphany his whole life had meaning and direction, the dirty boogie riffs, the look, the 'tude. The picture of the dude in the rebel topper was tattooed into his brain. Perhaps when he was younger, Master Bates, oops, I mean Master Gates had the same experience with a trilby Edited February 8, 2008 by Muzz Quote Link to comment
westhemann Posted February 11, 2008 Report Share Posted February 11, 2008 I would argue against Tesla being an "image" band. I agree they were great musicians...but unfortunately they were promoted by the record company as a "good looking hair band"...which I think killed them with the serious listeners...IMO But I have to say...Tesla are much greater talents than The Black Crowes.

GregP Posted February 14, 2008 Report Share Posted February 14, 2008 Tesla were definitely better musicians than the Black Crowes. But the Black Crowes had/have a better vibe. "She Talks to Angels", "Twice as Hard", and even "Remedy" were better and more memorable recordings than anything Tesla came out with. Quote Link to comment

avengers63 Posted February 15, 2008 Report Share Posted February 15, 2008 "love is gonna find a way"...instant classic Actually, it was titles "Love Song", but you're absolutely right. It had a great acoustic/classical intro. This might have been the second best power ballad of the era. Sister Christian was hands-down the best. Quote Link to comment
