_________________ is to Jimi Hendrix


"Electric Ladyland"


BZZZZZTTTTT.... wrong....


and


_________________ is to Deep Purple


"Deep Purple"


~~ Yawn ~~


Never heard that album...


Got anything else?


Yeah, but I will wait for someone to answer this one first.. Huge hint
was in my origional question...


BBBZZZZTTTTT this, Shark Boy.


Never hard of "Deep Purple" - honest to pete - next time do some
research because you sure as hell don't know nuttin' about rock 'n
roll. * :


Oh man, I **** people off when I play Rock and Roll Trivial Persuit...


But anyway, I can be schooled, *Generally not by someone who's
favorite album is a cross between Al Yankovich and Roy Acuff, but here
is the challenge. Tell me why you said Electric Ladyland.. ? See if we
are on the same page..


I see a particular characteristic of Blow by Blow to Jeff Beck as I do
________ to Hendrix, and ___________ to Deep Purple. *(Deep Purple,
Smoke on the water, Highway Star, etc...) *What is that
characteristic? If you can answer that, you are good...


You can't make the characterization because "Blow by Blow" is
instrumental and considered "the best" of Beck. *As "Electric
Ladyland" is considered the best of Hendrix as "Deep Purple" is
considered the best of Deep Purple. *The assumption was that you were
looking for "best" and "album" - not content.

Oh, and BTW, I consder very little of Beck or Hendrix to be Rock and
Roll...


Of course you do. *Probably think Jerry Garcia was an upstanding
member of the Temperance Union too. *:)- Hide quoted text -

"The Best" is not at all the characteristic I was looking for.. Try
again. You need to dig a little deeper into the albums to get where I
was going.... "The Best" is too subjective.. I will give you a
few... You really need to be deeper into the bands and their
histories to get this one.. I don't think you are the guy.. I bet Tim
could knock it off, Mabey Loogie, but I doubt it..


Ok, here's the deal.

In a direct comparison test, which is what this is, you are trying to
define is the base parameters - this is to that as that is to...

In order to make appropriate comparisons, the terms of the question
have to have properties analogous to the series whose convergence
properties are known.

In this instance the known properties are "Blow by Blow" which is an
album written and performed by Jeff Beck. The comparisons are .....is
to Jimi Hendrix as ..... is to Deep Purple.

The known subject is an album by Jeff Beck which is considered his
"best" - thus the object comparison set must be similar, not
different.

What you are probably looking for is particular members of the
accompanying bands who all share X in common, that's an entirely
different construction.
