Great band. So much more to them than the two songs for which they're known. (Three if you count Wait Until the Summer's Gone.) I would like to see them do another record. The last one, IV, came out 14 years ago. Here's one of my favorite Zebra tracks: Another incredible band who is more than More Than Words. (See what I did there? heh) Actually, we could probably do this for just about every band listed in this thread. RIP AOR |

Not a big fan of the "genre", but I do like these more or less "rock" bands from what is generally accepted as the "classic rock" era:
Love
The Byrds
The Beach Boys
Creedence Clearwater Revival
The Velvet Underground
The 13th Floor Elevators
The Sonics
Big Star

Just a question, have you heard any of the new AOR bands 'cause if you are a fan of the genre and haven't you might be in for a surprise. There are heaps of new AOR bands releasing albums but they are mostly in Europe and they don't get mainstream airplay on radio or music channels here in Australia or America 'cause they are so different than the type of Pop music the major record labels want artists and bands to perform but some of them have strong followings and have released multiple albums. Here are some you might like. There are a lot of them on Melodicrock.com and I have discovered heaps looking at that site. 
Nice post, thanks. I'll be sure to check out some of those bands. Assuming that's you in your avatar, do you play guitar or are you just posing? If the former, you should play us all a song.  |

No that is not me.  That is singer, actress and model, McKenzie Porter. ![]()  I can sing and play guitar, bass, piano, banjo, and drums and write my own songs. I used to be the lead singer of a band when I was younger. We were never famous but we played support for some famous acts such as Killing Heidi, the Sleepy Jackson and Waikiki and were offered a record deal. I quit my music career 'cause I had just got together with my Wifey and I wanted to be with her and didn't want to tour all the time. We were best friends when we were kids and after I came out my parents abandoned me and her parents who were devout Christians kept us apart for a long time when they suspected something was going on between us and I never stopped loving her when we were apart. A lot of my friends think I am really talented and should go on a show like 'The Voice' or 'Australia's Got Talent' but I don't want to be famous. I love singing and writing songs and I am trying to sell my songs to some artists but that is all.
As for Mackenzie I am a big fan of hers and have been using her as my avatar on and off for the past year on the IMDB Boards, Colliding Worlds and here. I used to get a few private messages on the IMDB boards asking me if that was me and I would tell them all about Mackenzie and I made her some new fans who went on to buy her music and watched her show.  Mackenzie is currently working on her second album and Season 2 of her show, 'Travelers' is going to air on Netflix soon. Her are some pictures and videos of the gorgeous and talented Mackenzie Porter.

I should have recognized her from this pic you posted last week because I spent a few minutes playing around with it in Photoshop. It's a beautiful photo but the washed-out contrast and yellow hue was bugging me. lol   |
