The interesting thing about the flourishing scene of the mid 60's to early 70's was that most of the Rock Musicians were trained first in Classical Music. In other words they understood notation and timing as well as melody and harmony. Emerson, Lake, and Palmer were all students of the London Conservatory, as was the Organist for Uriah Heep. Most all had at least some classical training. So, by understanding higher level music they were able to create higher level Rock.

Holy crap, did you hear her rendition of I Want You (She's So Heavy) by the Beatles?

You mean like Jimi Hendrix, The Who, Black Sabbath, stuff like that? Yep, that's classical... :)

I haven't heard too many people who could play any better...
She's unbelievable.

Ozzy's first guitarist was classically trained and you can hear it in his playing. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randy_Rhoads He'd be in the god category if he lived longer.
That girls playing kind of reminded me of him, with the quick little improvised fills she used.
I'm sure there's others that had that training. I just know Rhoads did because I enjoy his playing.

It was a joke. You know how they play all that stuff on "classical rock" stations, and give it that term.
It was a pun my man, a pun. That's my story and I'm sticking to it.

Actually, Randy Rhoads, who played for Ozzy, formerly of Sabbath, was a classical background guitarist.
Compare to the sound today and you'll see the differences.
I wasn't disputing what OI said, it was a play on words...
You know, "classical rock".

Scratch what I said. I thought you meant Randy was formerly of Sabbath. You obviously meant Ozzy.

I'm a sucker for hot redheads who sing like angels.

Sounds great, but dude needs, badly, to lose the nail polish
Yeah, the dude is a bit full of himself. Perhaps he's one of yukko's pals...LOL

You are correct sir. The main reason why I follow the European scene, particularly the Dutch scene---even the rappers are classically trained. This video was done by Perquisite, a cello player and a rapper/singer from Aruba Pete Philley---everything they do is better than us....

Thanks for slapping one enormous tile into the mosaic of my music arsenal!
Why TF aren't these bands on the radio here!
You're welcome Eric.
I'd recommend the live concert DVD's, "End of an Era" and "From Wishes to Eternity". That along with their album "Once", and some of their earlier works such as "Century Child", "Wishmaster", and "Oceanborn".
Their last album, "Dark Passion Play", sucked. They fired their singer, Tarja Turunen, and replaced her with a wannabe pop diva. They used to be one of the best live bands ever, now they're more like a club band. It's a shame their egos got the best of them.
As far as why aren't they on the radio, well, it seems like a bit of social engineering is at play where they only allow hip hop bands to make it big here in the US these days, along with a few token rock bands to keep the crackers happy.

As well some groups, Camel comes to mind, have done rock variations on classical compositions. Some of which are quite interesting. Their rock version of "The Snow Goose" was, I thought, quite good. I was going to post the video but evidently it is not available in the U.S. due to copyright restrictions.
