Greatest performing son or daughter of a music legend

Poll question: Greatest performing son or daughter of a music legend

[BikeWriter]

1. Hank Jr. of course.

[johnnie]

2. Hank III is better in my opinion

I guess he would count.

[BikeWriter]

4. I haven't seen or heard him yet, I guess.

[johnnie]

8. He is his grandfather

But twice as much a hell raiser.

5. Hank III's version of "Fearless Boogie" on THIS CD...

...is pretty amazing. If you're a fan and you don't have it, you should. The album takes more of a rocking country approach than one would suspect. Brooks & Dunn's version of "Rough Boy" plays pretty close to the original, and Hank Jr. tackles "Jesus Just Left Chicago/Waitin' For The Bus."

:toast:

3. I forgot Bocephus...and POLAND!

[BikeWriter]

7. Ya got to remember Bocephus!

[SofaKingLiberal]

36. Hank Jr.

:thumbsup:

[wildhorses]

6. you forgot Robb is a dingbat...I heard that it is NOT an

official poll unless there is that option...:silly:



tough poll here...

[imperialismispasse]

9. Hank Williams III

[LostinVA]

10. Roseanne Cash BY FAR

Whether or not you like Country -- the best of herself, her dad, and her stepmom...

[Left Is Write]

12. I agree.

[LostinVA]

13. We're so smart...

[LSK]

23. yep

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

27. "Rhythm and Romance"...the best album Stevie Nicks never made.

AND it includes Tom Petty songs and Heatbreaker guest appearances, PLUS Linda Ronstadt / Joe Walsh / Stevie guitarist Waddy Wachtel.

It's everything Stevie ever tried to attempt in her career and more, and a damn fine Rosanne album to boot. The song "Halfway House" is so good it's TERRIFYING.

Not to diminish any other album in her catalog, but THIS one...this was inspired, this was a human bonfire captured on tape.

[begin_within]

11. Lisa Marie Presley's not a bad singer - soulful and expressive

[mvd]

14. I like Rosanne Cash, Carlene Carter, and Jakob Dylan a lot

But I'll have to choose other, since I don't really have time to go through all the names right now.

[XNASA]

15. What about the Wilson sisters?

Or Nelson?



No that one. This one.

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

28. Nice voices, very forgettable material.

"Hold On" was good in an "MTV One-Hit Wonder" kind of way, but...

:toast:

[vademocrat]

16. Definitely Roseanne Cash -

She wrote some great songs & good covers on others...

[LostinVA]

17. Her new CD is masterful

[vademocrat]

19. I didn't even know she was still recording...

guess I should get out more! :dunce:

[LostinVA]

22. It's basically about her father and stepmother's deaths...

And coming to terms with them...

[vademocrat]

26. Just read a review in Rolling Stone -

Definitely sounds worthwhile

[michreject]

18. Derek Trucks

This guy is awesome.

[Redstone]

20. Gotta take Rosanne AND Carlene.

Their musical styles are so different...I'd pay $1,000.00 to see them do a double-bill concert and sing a few songs together as well.

And Carlene isn't just terrific legs..."Quarter Moon in a Ten-Cent Town" says she's as good a songwriter as anyone.

Redstone

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

29. Carlene had the added benefit...

...of the whole Nick Lowe / Dave Edmunds "Rockpile" thing (since, for a while, she was married to Lowe). I also remember her hitting it big at the dawn of Stiff Records, Elvis Costello, that whole phenomenon. She had the looks, the talent, and the attitude...what a triple threat...and she definitely made her mark.

21. Peter Serkin, piano

Son of Rudolf Serkin, piano.

[Karenina]

32. Goddess of Guinness

WHERE ARE YOU WHEN I NEED YOU???? ;-)

[GoddessOfGuinness]

33. Late, as usual...

:toast:

[Vidar]

24. Liza Minelli comes to mind.

[LynneSin]

25. My vote is for Jason, he plays just like his dad!

Let's just hope he doesn't party like him :cry:

I keep hoping for the Led Zeppelin reunion tour with him sitting in for his dad. He's the only person who can drum Led Zeppelin the way it should be.

I've seen him in concert during the 1989 Jimmy Page tour. Jimmy did an instrumental version of "Stairway to Heaven" and Jason stood up behind his drum set and directed everyone to sing along.

[Bush_Eats_Beef]

31. He's definitely the motivator in the current version of UFO...

This is a very good live DVD...better than one might think:



...and all during the performance Bonham is encouraging the crowd...sometimes with a "U...F...O..." chant, others with sing-along stuff, but in terms of attitude, he seems to fit in well and be happy with what he's doing.

:toast:

[Taverner]

30. HAY What about Norah Jones

Uber hot daughter of Ravi Shankar!!!!

[joneschick]

48. I don't believe I had to go this far down-thread to find her! eom

[Floogeldy]

34. Elizabeth Montgomery!

Twink-a-dink-a-dink! ;)

[maveric]

35. Arlo Guthrie

[Jeff In Milwaukee]

39. Sarah Lee Guthrie

Great voice, and she's a lefty just like her Dad and her Grandfather.

[elshiva]

47. Love Arlo!

[GoddessOfGuinness]

37. Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart...

Hi father wasn't so shabby either.

[WCGreen]

38. Norah Jones......

Ravi Shankar's Daughter.....

[meegbear]

40. Dweezil and Ahmet Zappa have more talent Jason Bottom thank you ...

his dad was a two bit skin man. Deal with it.

[Rabrrrrrr]

41. Boy, no shit on that one. The Dweez isn't Frank-Genius, but he's damned

good.

[Deja Q]

42. Nancy Sinatra!

[Rabrrrrrr]

43. Maxim Shostakovitch
