To be a good song, in my mind´s eye, it must have an original, distinct and not too complicated melody - and it must have a strong hook. The melody should be "in your face", it should leap out at...

If a piece of putative music does not have a melody, then it is mere noise, not genuine music.

Melody is the sine qua non of music worthy of the name.

I say that Hawkwind were *very* uneven. A few of their songs (e.g. Silver Machine, Lord of Light, Spirit of the Age) were great, some were meh and many were just boring masses of noise.

I voted Kansas. But I was close to voting Foreigner or Styx. All three of the bands aforementioned made music without sufficiently distinctive melodies, in my opinion.

Aside from the Beatles, my favourite British Invasion band - at that time (ca. 1964) was The Dave Clark Five. They had lots of melodic, up-tempo songs. The kind of songs I liked.

Budgie - great hard rock!

I was just checking out old threads "at random" and stumbled on this antediluvian Budgie thread. "Aha!" I thought to myself. I remember them. Back in the early 1970s Budgie were my second favourite...

Problem Child is by far my favourite AC/DC song. It is uptempo and hardrocking.

But Bon Scott´s sense of humour is rather sick. Cracking jokes about a vicious knife-murderer! Yuck.

The Woodstock festival was an ill-prepared, unhygienic mess. The hippies under the bare sky got all messed up with mud mixed with human excrements.

Nothing to wax romantic about, in my opinion.

Böc

Does Blue Öyster Cult count as heavy metal?

BÖC were making melodic heavy music way back in the early 1970s.

To the best of my knowledge the only King Crimson LP with consistently good melodies was their first one. That LP is the only one by King Crimson that I really like a lot.

A Saucerful of Secrets

I voted for A Saucerful of Secrets as my favorite Pink Floyd album - for the only reason that it has the song "Remember a Day". I only love songs with strong melodies and hooks. I care not for...
