For 20 years now, even when i played d2 in 2005 THIS was THE shit.
And as drummer, mike portnoy was ofc my "god" 😅


Are there better products by USA?

I love Dream Theater, Tool, Primus, Living Colour, and of course Jimi Hendrix, Jeff Beck, and the priceless Stevie Ray Vaughan.
Please, let us not forget Frank Zappa and the ferocious artists who surrounded him. And, Prince, too.

Yeye ofc ofc, dont forget dog pound gangsters, wutangclan and

There alot

But

Is there any better product then this album? I mean, awake is 2nd, but this one... hooooly shit still today

Can and doing whistle complete album when hearing, full solos and stuff, beatboxing the crazy rythm switches etc

Is there better production? More complicated, but still harmonic, more crazy and difficult solos on guitar or keyboard? Which in the end still brings the ONE vibe that they deliver?


And yes, posted wrong forum right? This belongs to trophy room obviosly.

Ok found one more that comes close to, but im afraid i get reported for posting porn

Anyways, ill post it

Yeah! Steve Vai was only 16 when he auditioned for Zappa's band. He's played with so many and his solo work is fericious. He is one of those rare session artists who can do anything asked of them and more. And, he is wonderfully kooky, too. Kooky artists are the best.

Hahaha! Yup. There ought to be a trophy room for bands and/or songs.

Bin!

So you answer my main question with no?^^

Well, if I were to select my favourite musical artist that was born and raised in the United States, I would have to venture into Jazz and Jazz Fusion and say Miles Davis and a tight second is John Coltrane. But for Prog Rock, Dream Theater has my vote.

Mike Portnoy playing Tool on Drumeo is peak video.
Great band

Bump coz into it.. duuuuuuuuude they sooo crazy man
