OT – What is your greatest musical hot take?
It’s a Friday deep in the heart of OT season so I thought I’d ask, what is your greatest musical hot take? Someone must believe that “Major Tom” is better than “Space Oddity” or that Chris Gaines is superior to Garth Brooks
For me it is that George Harrison was the greatest Beatle. He wrote the single greatest Beatles song “While my guitar gently weeps” and had the best solo career. I will go to my grave believing that “My Sweet Lord” Is infinitely better than “Imagine”. There can also be no argument that The Travelling Wilburys were better than Wings (it’s not a fair comparison, I know).
greatest guitarists. And Pink Floyd is one of the greatest bands of all time. They were very similar to the Beatles in their use of non-traditional rock sounds in their music.
And . . .I also think Ted Nugent is a great guitar player. His politics and loud mouth antics aside (some of it is hilarious) I think he got in his own way and was overly defiant stay with his old sound too long. But no matter what back in the day nobody put more energy into a show than he did.
