Yeah, thats right but the indo prog/raga rock doesn´t always contain rock IMHO. Edit: Not a hundred percent sure about some of the electronic ones too. In general some of the last additions were ... questionable. At first we should ask ourselves is this still rock : D Edited by GrafHaarschnitt - November 11 2018 at 07:35 |

The closest example would be the Come With Me song Puff ("I don't know no D from no E" Daddy did with Jimmy Page. I did hear of a rumour which as far as I know has not happened. Jon Andrson doing rap / opera concept something. All these point toward a negative. Hip hop does occasionally demonstrate some ability to use the song format. But it's just reinventing the wheel and painfully for the most part. A pair of words followed by two beats (repeated slowly) is musical impoverishment indeed. The last thing of hip hop I heard... Currently listening to a Carl Palmer drum solo (Steve Hackett guesting). No voices, no melodies and only the occasional well timed phrase in it's arsenal. Big fat no... |

^ And the man sometimes referred to as the Godfather of Rap, Gil Scott-Heron (a label he rejected, spoken word proto-hip hop would suit him better)
