"Befuddled by the shreddery" is my new favorite phrase.
I'd say dads in the late 50s were totally into how Eddie Van Halen shredded on "Eruption" on the 1st album, but dads in their early 50s were totally into "1984" and they had at least one friend who would play the opening keyboard riff from "Jump" every single damn time they found a piano. Both cohorts of dads would have listened to their friends arguing in junior high over whether keyboards in heavy metal music are or are not "gay."
My dad was into jazz. Every once in awhile he would break into a thirty minute dissertation on the greatness of jazz and how jazz was the only truly American art form.
He was right
Your dad would have been my dads best friend had they ever met.
It depends on what your dad called "jazz" - if he was talking about Stan Getz then I would agree with him but if Glenn Miller was your dad's idea of jazz then not so much.
@@ANationalAcrobat-qj2dlJazz is Black.
"Steely Dan is the dadliest dad rock" deserves to be a bumper sticker.
Dire Straits - Brothers in Arms! Never met a father who didn't care for Walk of Life.
Here's one. 60 and can't stand it.
.
I'm a dad. Aged 66. I have six of those albums among my 1,200 collection. Maybe you should have qualified this as "American dads" 😅
If anybody knows Dad Rock, it's a record shop owner!
Happy Father's Day, Dillon.
Surprised not to see Queen mentioned in the dad rock list!😊
Because they turned out to be gay
@@Musicmaneuverswasn’t that Village People?
What?! No Doobie Brothers? B L A S P H E M Y.
Harvest by Neil Young. Tea for the Tillerman by Cat Stevens were two of Dads favorite that I still love.
soft rock was strong with them Dads.
Joe cocker, Billy Joel, Chris Deburgh.
even Elton John... or Boz Scaggs (as in Breaking Bad!)
yes Neil should be on the list also! 🙂
Fantastic video. This one had me chuckling! I have 7 of these masterpieces
My dad was into all the popular 60s stuff like Herb Alpert, Thelonius Monk, Brasil 66, Ramsey Lewis, If, Vince Garuldi...He didn't completely influence me, but he definitely pointed me in the right direction... lost him 4 years ago. He was a great guy.
BTO- definitely Canadian Dad rock!
Quite possibly the band that launched that genre tag, first time I heard Dad Rock, Wilco! Hilarious episode, Happy Father's Day!
I'm a 76 year old dad/grandfather who still collects 60s psych rock. And not just the Airplane and Doors. I'm talkin' Gandalf, July, Chocolate Watchband, the Elevators, etc.
Have you heard Brainticket's "Cottonwood Hill"?
Grand Funk Railroad
Dire Straits- Alchemy
Meat Loaf Bat out of Hell
MEat Loaf was Jack Black's dad in Pick of Destiny.... and heck did he rock in Rocky Horror ! "Hot Patootie!"
Us poorer Dads in the 60s and 70s could not afford to buy many vinyl albums and 8 tracks, so we listened to pop music radio stations, all the classic rock now.
Where’s Bruce Springsteen? Ultimate dad rock artist
Last comment: Bachman-Turner Overdrive, Not Fragile! Epic! BTO is another Canadian band. They were also the first band I ever saw live back in the '70s. The second band I ever saw live was Queen on their Night at the Opera tour...
Great trip down memory lane...
DADDY WHO HAS MADE by JERUSALEM a great dad song on UA-cam
Foghat "Live", REO Speedwagon "You Get What You Play For" and UFO "Strangers In the Night" are the Dad Rock records that got me hooked on live albums growing up.
Have you heard UFO's live album "Werewolves Of London"? Many people say it is even better than SITN.
My dad would have been 93 this year. He grew up with Hank Williams and was a big fan of Merl Haggard. One evening in the early eighties I started watching a live concert on PBS of David Bowie. Both my parents sat and watched it with me and enjoyed it.😮
If your Dad is 93 you should be dad age. Dad rock is what you like
I remember listening to The Eagles greatest hits volume 1 on 8-track over and over and over again in his old van.
Saw BTO open for Van Halen…in the Greensboro Coliseum! No spaceships involved though…lol. I did see Boston at the Dean Dome on the Third Stage tour. Still no spaceships involved but one of my all-time favorite concerts!
My parents took me to Bad Company and Lynyrd Skynyrd in the early 90s. Bad Company was one of those bands that my parents would crank up on the stereo system.
You forgot Alice Cooper! First album I ever bought. Alice Cooper Killer 1972 I was 12 years old, and I still have it! Loved the video!
Is really Rock but loved listening to Glenn Campbell with my dad! Miss him.🔊
Great dad rock list for sure, my dad is 72, and pretty much listened to everything you mentioned. But he really loved Uriah Heep, Jimi Hendrix, Judas Priest, Pink Floyd, Trapeze, Deep Purple. Thanks for all the great videos, Happy Fathers day to you also!
It is Electric Light Orchestra that came out and played on a spaceship, not Boston. Haha!
ua-cam.com/video/kXReQZ55fVc/v-deo.htmlsi=JAJPub0aHbJhE2M7
I would have thought Who's Next is way more Dad-ly. There are at least 4 songs on there that are staples of classic rock radio that some Dads have listened to every week of their lives since the album came out.
My dad’s favorite band is KISS. Named me after one of their songs…
My mom was a classical pianist, dad was an Air Force fighter pilot and in his 80’s still flys.
But he raised me on pretty much all the bands you listed. But what he was listening to was allot of Jimi Hendrix, CCR and the lot, but when Black Sabbath and Led Zeppelin came on the scene he was hit hard. 70’s and 80’s hard rock and metal are his favorites.
I love The Beatles and Tom Petty. My best friend believed Paul was dead. I am 72 I hate Kiss!
I'm a 60 year old dad. I'll go for the Beatles and CCR lp's
Wouldn't want any of the rest.
.
Down here in '60s & '70s in Texas, it was all Country, all the time with my dad. He was always walking around the house singing the first line of every chorus of every hit, then rinse, repeat. Hank Williams, George Jones, Merle Haggard, Johnny Cash, Conway Twitty...etc, etc... Happy Father's Day all!
Yep I know about all those albums, I was born in 51! I'm listening to some Janis Joplin now🎉
My dad was born in 1930. 20% of what he listened to was pretty good even if I didn't appreciate it at the time. Count Basie, Artie Shaw, Glenn Miller, etc. Unfortunately, the rest was elevator music, Lawrence Welk, and polka. Long car rides could be hell on earth.
Springsteen Queen Journey BOC GnR Heart Dire Straits
Hi Dillan I loooooooooooooove your vids u inspire me so much can I like Mimi Hendrix the door Led Zeppelin Beatles and Pink Floyd all cause of u can u give me recommendations and help me with content creation so I can be just like you ps I’m 11😊
I own 5 of the 20. Happy Fathers Day!
Great topic on Father's Day. I'm counting to see how many of these I have... I'm about 5 minutes in and you're holding up Led Zeppelin IV... That was the album where my two young boys and I got on the same page about music... They were singing, "Hey hey, mama said the way you move" in the car at the top of their lungs with me when they were 2 and 4 years old...
And now I'm singing Cat's in the Cradle...
It’s as if you when thru my music collection!!!! You are spot on with your list!! Happy Father’s Day!!
And don’t forget to connect the dots on the back of Abby Road. It will create the number 3, as three remaining Beatles.
My Dad got an opportunity to see AC/DC at what is now the Bojangles Coliseum during the For Those About To Rock tour. He said after the show it came to light that their cannons used during the show were so strong, it cracked the foundation of the coliseum.
My dads favoryte band is pink floyd in the from wish you where here and ongoing Gilmours work of today. We actually saw roger waters last year together in Hamburg and we will see David Gilmore this year in Rome. Oh and another dad classic gor me is supertramp. My dad loves them.
What is Dad rock? I'm not a yank so I'd like to know?
Must have taken you forever to make that list, having to rule out soo many great dad rock albums. Let me add a few of my faves...
Cat Stevens. Supertramp. Alan Parsons. Doobies... OMG the list goes on.
Great vid.
Happy fathers day all.
As a dad I can confirm. I have owned all but three of these. I'm taking credit for moving pictures cause that's the one Rush I have.
Sounds like the dads you're talking about are about my age (62). My father, who passed away 22 years ago, was not much of a music fan, but what music he did like was mostly instrumental jazz and bluegrass. We did have a handful of albums around the house in the late Sixties - The Beatles, The Mamas And The Papas, The Lovin' Spoonful, and Simon & Garfunkel. Today my musical tastes run the gamut from Black Metal to Baroque orchestral music, but then again I am not a dad. Just please don't make me listen to Steely Dan, Huey Lewis, or Kansas. Also, one major Dad Rock album for folks of my age that you left out would have to be Meat Loaf's Bat Out Of Hell.
Dire straits. Foreigner. Journey.😊
No allman brothers or Bruce Springsteen
Hey! I just watched a Rick Beato video about AI writing new music! So appreciate your Dad's music written by real people!
Great video Dillon! My dad liked a few of those Boston, Beatles, Tommy. His big Pink Floyd album was The Wall, which he got me into as a young boy. As a Scottish dad though, he liked some other dad rock: The Police, early Genesis, ELO, 10CC, Barclay James Harvest, and the big one… Supertramp! My dad also loved a compilation (like you I’m not so keen). Well for Father’s Day, my kids got me First Utterance by Comus and Tone Soul Evolution by Apples in Stereo… yes, I pick my own FD presents 😂 Happy Fathers Day! Cheers, Jack
Dark side of the moon
Bat out of hell
Phil collins no jacket required
Peter gabriel so
Zeppelin 4
Genesis foxtrot
Back in black
Grandad rock
I think def leopard should be on here
You nailed this one brother 😂❤🎉
I’m a bit older but some of the albums that make me think of my dad are Roger Millers greatest hits, Johnny Cash at Folsom Prison, David Allan Coe greatest hits, all of the early Kris Kristoffersen.
My dad was into big band and country music. I was (and still am) a huge KISS fan. There were two records we really bonded over. Peter Criss' 1978 solo album and ELO Out of the Blue. We listened to those albums all the time when we went places. The ELO album was the one we listened to the most, and we called it boating music, because we always had it playing on our boat. Fun memories that I would give anything to do one more time.
I favor Quadrophena
My dad's rock : Allman Brothers band.
Pink Floyd. Queen. Boston. The Cars. Offenbach AND Robert Charlebois! Québec Tabarnak!
Dad Rock Rocks!!! Happy to say I have every single one of these.......except Kiss. I don't own a single KISS album.
As an Aussie my dad was into cold chisel/Jimmy Barnes, AC/DC, Metallica, Midnight Oil, Dire Straits, and Santana
Man, you have no clue about KISS. You should've went to see them when you could have. You would've seen kids younger than yours there.
For f' sake its' classic rock... no one except clueless, zombie brained Millennials/Gen z'ers use the term "dad rock", ya dig? And I got news for you they consider anything from the 90s "dad-rock" too.
Daddy chill.
It's Grandad rock
Now you're holding up Rush's first album. They had not yet found Neil Peart, so John Rutsey played drums on that one.
I grew up in a place called Richmond Hill, Ontario in Canada, which is Rush's old stomping grounds. They played at our high school a couple of times in the '70s along with bands like Max Webster, Triumph, April Wine and a few other local Canadian acts. If you've never heard the band Max Webster, you should look them up. They were one of the coolest Toronto bands back in the day and they were making the circuit back in the day as well.
🫨Hangover!
I had over 500 albums including all the ones mentioned. Lost to fire in 1996. 13 Beatle albums, almost every Stones until Steeler’s Wheels(saw them 4 times), all Syknyrd albums until and including Street Survivor. I had the original that was pulled, and about every rock album, 1963-80.
I’m probably older than your dad (75 next month), so my list is a bit different. My dad was born in 1913, a very different time. His favorite was Frank Sinatra, especially his Capitol period. Songs For Swinging Lovers, Come Fly With Me etc. Next would be anything by Ella Fitzgerald. He turned me onto Jazz when I was 12 by playing me Dizzy Gillespie doing “Salt Peanuts”. He loved all the great big bands, Duke Ellington, Count Basie etc etc. When I was 13 (1964) my parents took me to see Nina Simone. Yea, they were pretty hip. Thanks for sharing
I'm a 72 year old dad, my classic picks are a little different. The albums I still listen to constantly are Moody Blues Days of Future Past, ELO A New Worlds Record, Raspberries 1st, The Band Self Titled, Gypsys' 1st , BeeGees 1st, Steve Miller #5, Spirit Twelve Dreams of Dr Sardonicus, Youngbloods Elephant Mountain, Byrds Untitled, Working Mans Dead, Little Feat Dixie Chicken, Mountain Climbing, Johnny Winter 1st on colombia, Allman Bros at the Filmore, Bang Bang Youre Terry Reid, JoJo Gunne Bite Down Hard, T Rex Electric Warrior and more
Speaking as a dad, I like most of the picks from the first half of your video. The Rush "dad album" is 2112. Tres Hombres >>>> Eliminator. Kiss, Boston, Steely Dan = lame 😴. If I hear one more review comparing Aja releases my head might explode. Yeah, we get it, it's the best audiophile recording of impotent music ever.
My dad had 78s and a crank-up record player console that looked like a piece of furniture. Not kidding. One record was just people laughing... both sides.
P.s. Cool dads listen to Grateful Dead and Jerry Garcia concert tapes. 🤙😎👍🤯✌️
I’m a dad. I was 21 when Woodstock happened. I like about 2/3 of the bands in the list. I was surprised that Jimi Hendrix was not mentioned. And Hall and Oats. In concert I have seen The Who (3 times), Led Zeppelin (2 times), The Eagles, Eric Clapton, ZZTop and Paul Rodgers (the singer for Bad Company) and others. Interesting video.
My dad was into Tears For Fears, Rush, Dream Theater, Candlebox, Killswitch Engage, Type O Negative, Kiss, Great White, and Boston.
Someone has seen High Fidelity and thought being an ass hat record snob was a good thing. Fact is vinyl record collecting of all musical genres is a sliver of a niche of a market and pissing on anyone’s musical taste is bad business.
Doobie Brothers, Chicago, Billy Joel, Elton John, Fleetwood Mac, and Jimmy Buffett.
My Dad LOVED Lionel Ritchie. When his songs came on the radio...he turned it UP. He was also a Billy Joel fan which i was surprised not to see on the list. 52nd Street was a favorite of his. RIP Dad...I miss you. Im 43. He dies when i was 19.
So glad you squeezed BTO in there👍
almost had to!
Like Guess Who, in canada they are legends ! ""No time" !!
I discovered last week if you look at that Boston album upside down, the spaceship is actually a guitar.
Love your Channel but I am Dad and you are quite a bit off from my list - to put in perspective I graduated in 1976 and had two older brothers - that influenced my musical taste.
You were close on some but way off on others of what I love as Dad Rock. You forgot or did not have time for:
Jimi Hendrix
Johnny Winter
Roxy Music
Jethro Tull
Cheap Trick
David Bowie
Yes
The Tubes
ELP
Okay ZZ top - we agree on
Eric Clapton - you can Keep but that's me!
Van Morrison
Joe Walsh
Miles Davis
Stan Getz
Weather Report
Jeff Beck
Little Feat
But Again time and references are relative - this is what I grew up on. Love your show!
If you were doing this from a British Dad perspective, you'd have a lot of those but you would also have to include an album by the following bands: Jethro Tull, Status Quo, Dire Straits, The Clash, the Kinks and Queen.
That's grandad rock. Dad rock is RATM, green day, foo fighters
@@njwtube It's a generational thing, you're obviously a bit younger than me and Dillon 🤣
@@jimmycampbell78 I'm 37. My dad loves dire straits, Jethro, Springsteen etc
@@njwtube ok, so your dad is not into RATM, Green Day and Foo Fighters then. I was 13 when I picked up RATM's debut on release, and 15 when I bought Dookie and 16 when I bought Foo Fighters s/t debut so it's pretty alien to me to call those bands dadrock.
Exactly. I'm a dad. He's a grandad @@jimmycampbell78
There should be even more AOR in this Video: Foreigner Styx Journey Toto REO Speedwagon Asia Survivor ....
Dad Rock. You know what it is. Don't you? "OH YEAH....SURE. DAD ROCK!"
Suppose dad rock would'nt be dad rock without Fleetwood Mac - Rumours. (The cool dads favourite would be Then Play On by the Peter Green version of Fleetwood Mac).
Dad's favourite jazz album Miles Davis - Kind of Blue (cool dad's favourite - Miles Davis - Get up with it!).
Dad's rock favourite REM - Out of Time (cool dad's favourite REM - GREEN).
Dad's rock favourite Santana -Black magic woman (cool dad's favourite Santana - Caravanserai).
Dad's rock favourite -Peter Framton - Comes alive (cool dad's favourite - John Martyn - live at Leeds).
Sadly my hero is gone and I’m getting up there myself. When I was a kid and got the music bug, my Dad commented on how he loved a song by Eddie Arnold. With that in mind I was so excited to buy my first box set at Woolworth’s for him at Christmas. He never played it or much of anything else. But he was always there and one of maybe 3 Fans at one of my football games. Thanks Dad, you were the best!!!!!!
If you play "The Wall" backwards at the "if you don't eat your meat" part, it says
"Ahh You Have Found the Secret Message, send ** to Old Pink"... something like that...
if you listen forward you can hear the backwards talk right after he says pudding stuff...
At 58, I'm firmly in the "Dadopshere" contemplated here and I heard all of these bands when I got into music in my mid-teens. But I realized that I own only five of these 20 albums. And I'm more into jazz than anything else. I like R.E.M. and The National, and I occasionally enjoy some hip-hop and just recently listened to (and enjoyed) Olivia Rodrigo's 'Guts.' So sometimes I fly in the Dadopshere but more often I don't. :)
Here's my picks for the top 10 Dad rock lps
Steely Dan Aja
Fleetwood Mac Rumors
Eagles Greatest Hits
Elton John Greatest Hits
Supertramp Breakfast In America
Rolling Stones Tattoo You
Chicago's Greatest Hits
Peter Frampton Alive
The Knack Get The Knack
Wings Speed of Sound
My Father liked Hank Williams, Dolly Parton, and Simon and Garfunkel.
My "Dad Rock" top album is Joe's Garage, acts I, II, III by Frank Zappa.
L.A woman : The Doors
Animalization : The Animals
Bayou Country : Creedence
Distan lights : The Hollies
America : America
Deep Purple in Rock : Deep purple
Glass houses : Billy Joel
With the Beatles : The Beatles
Happy Father's Day to a dad who rocks
Is that an ol' Gibson?
Sheet... my dad was into doo-wop.
Yea... I'm geezin'.
Peace on earth.
Eddie Money, Billy Joel, Dire Straits are the big ones for my dad (and most of the ones mentioned)
He was cool though, liked a lot of the current 90’s and 2000’s stuff at the time. We jammed to Gin Blossoms, Third Eye Blind, Oasis, Coldplay, Dave Matthews, 3 Doors Down, all of that.
My dad was born in ‘24 so on trips we listened to 8-tracks of Henry Mancini, Percy Faith, Herb Albert, etc! 🙄 At 66 and both a dad and granddad, most of of your list was in my wheelhouse. Boston, Bad Company, Skynrd, and Steely Dan were in constant rotation. But my collection also included Tull, ELP, Chicago, Guess Who, Allman Bros., early Chicago, Yes and Dan Fogelberg. Never could get my daughters into Prog Rock! 🤪
At a Dad age, got to be said there are some REALLY embarrassing truths there!!! Oh no!! But…..No Sabbath, No Clash, No Stranglers…….so at least I dońt feel too bad!!!😂
I love that you never post any "albums that suck" or "albums you love that I hate" videos. Your videos are always so positive and inclusive, not to mention informative and interesting. Thanks for being a beacon of positivity in the VC, Dillon.
Edit: I'm a 55yo dad and I have 10 of the 20. 😂
As a 60+ dad, I think I have 17 of the top Dad Bands on your list but not necessarily those albums. No Kiss, Kansas or ACDC for me. You have to have Tres Hombres on the list, La Grange is the song that sent ZZ Top on its way!. I also loved the Allman Brothers, Doobie Brothers, Foghat, Grand Funk, James Gang, Springsteen, Mellencamp plus Ten Years After, and Rory Gallagher in the top 25.
The new Nathaniel Rateliff coming out next week- total Dad rock. The song " heartless " is already on youtube. Its amazing. Also, check out his song " love dont"
Funny, I'm a dad and albums like Walk Among Us, Beggar's Banquet and Rage Against The Machine's first album are among the first that I reach for -- not Van Halen, CCR, or Pink Floyd. Further, my dad listened to John Denver (hated The Beatles, didn't like David Bowie - the only things we could agree on were early Aerosmith and Alice Cooper) and his dad listened to Hank Snow and Johnny Cash.
is an unplayed Boston Picture Disc from the 70's worth anything...?
also Judas Priest Sad Wings pic disc.
''cool dad into Iron Maiden''!? Hard to imagine a less 'cool' band. Muzak for Engineering students and similar.
I've always disliked that term. It's like it's a disgrace of some sort to like classic rock albums. Ridiculous really. Good music is just good music whether it's from 1936 or 1973.
Hank Williams Sr & Bill Monroe for my granddad. Add Ten Years After - Space IN Time & Neil Young - Everyone know this is nowhere for myself
I’m 63, been collecting albums and all music for over 5 decades now and my kids know it. My kids see and hear music 🎵 of multiple genres so for Father’s Day they bought me 3 albums. Black Sabbath Vol 4 (I did not own that sabbath yet), The Specials new release and a Joan Jett repress I didn’t have. Great kids, they dun good. 👍 😊. Oh and my dad bought me my first hard rock Lp in 73’ Deep Purple Machine Head…cool dad eh?
