I love classic rock, but am not really a fan of Heavy metal music.  I once went to a Motley Crue concert just to win over a guy.  Ugh!
I love heavy metal.  Since it combines blues music with acid rock, I consider even Van Halen to be heavy metal due to  the massive sound, distortion, guitar solos, and overall loudness.
Well, then maybe I like Heavy metal, because I like Van Halen.  What is acid rock?
It grew out of 196's drug culture.  Think of Jimi Hendrix and his distorted guitar solos and long improvised jams.
oooh.  I always wondered that.  Hendrix was certainly a good guitar player.
He only had a 4 year career, but is widely regarded as one of the greatest of all time.
4 years isn't very long.  He's such an icon that it seems like his career lasted 100 years!
Yes, he was talented.  Too bad they also call Mohammed Ali the boxer "the greatest".
Lot's of GOATs in this world!
Speaking of goats, have you ever heard of the goat races they have on the islands of Trinidad and Tobago.
