![]() ![]() “Then Came The Last Days Of May” – Blue Öyster CultĪmerican hard rockers Blue Oyster Cult are one of the most unique acts in the genre, often blending their heavy rock attack with pop hooks and cerebral, academic-like lyrics. In comparison to its 1987 heavy metal-infused counterpart, this version is a more soulful outing and arguably more of a match to the heartbreak-filled lyrics.Ĥ. A good representation of that era is certainly the original version of “Crying In The Rain”.Ī gargantuan riff-based number originally appearing on Saints and Sinners (1982), “Crying In The Rain” features Coverdale’s melancholic yet powerful vocals and guitarist Bernie Marden’s stirring leads cutting through the song’s notably bluesy mid-section. While no one can deny the drawing power and sheer quality of the group’s glam phase, many still prefer their earlier, more underrated material, which is more grounded and blues-based. The English group, led by former Deep Purple vocalist David Coverdale, is responsible for some of the ’80s most enduring glam metal anthems such as “Love Ain’t No Stranger”, “Here I Go Again” and especially “Is This Love”. There are few hard rock acts as memorable as Whitesnake. “Crying In The Rain” – Whitesnake (Original Version) Also including apparently autobiographical lyrics which deal with alcohol addiction and depression, “Dying Inside” is metal at its bluesiest and most honest.ħ. Originally appearing on the quintessential album Born Too Late (1986), “Dying Inside” is a blues-based, riff-driven monster that progresses menacingly at a slow pace, made all the more haunting by guitarist Dave Chandler’s hazy, feedback-laden lead break and vocalist Scott Weinrich’s tortured performance. “Dying Inside”, in a way, epitomizes their style. Seemingly inspired by Black Sabbath’s early albums and the psychedelic acid blues of the likes of Jimi Hendrix and Blue Cheer, Vitus and their bluesy, bottom-end sound and raw, street-level lyricism ooze with the type of relatable working-class appeal that most metal acts lack. ![]() ![]() Despite being pretty much underrated outside doom/stoner listening circles, the group remains a force, churning out crushingly heavy, power chord-based thunder since releasing their self-titled debut album in 1984. Originally from L.A, Saint Vitus are known for being pioneering icons of the American doom metal scene. While Rush never really returned to producing blues-based rock, “Here Again” remains a strong, if relatively underappreciated, contribution to the genre. However, the record also features a number of underrated cuts such as the bluesy ballad-like number “Here Again”.Ĭemented in John Rutsey’s competent, steady drumming and the muscular coils of Geddy Lee’s bass, the song truly shines by means of Lee’s inspired vocals and guitarist Alex Lifeson’s penetrating, emotional lead work. While the trio is notorious for highly complex and often extended compositions featuring elements of jazz, metal and classical, their underrated self-titled debut album (1974) is contrastingly rooted in the more primal heavy blues sound of the likes of early Led Zeppelin and Cream.īeing the only album in the band’s catalog not to include iconic drummer Neil Peart, Rush is more known for featuring the group’s very first hit in the enormous blue-collar anthem “Working Man”. We invite you, fellow blues rock fans, to contribute your own suggestions in the comments below.Ĭanadian progressive act Rush is undoubtedly among the greatest rock bands of all time. With that being said, this list is by no means exhaustive. You’ll also find a few deep cuts from celebrated blues rock acts that may have slipped through the cracks of recognition as well as underrated masterpieces from artists that deserve more praise. Our compilation partially delves beyond the established blues rock artists and explores tracks from acts not commonly associated with the genre. Welcome to our list of 10 underrated blues rock songs. However, it’s time to shine a spotlight on the underappreciated compositions that deserve more recognition. These and many other classics have rightfully earned their place in the pantheon of blues rock music and are unlikely to ever fade from mankind. When it comes to blues rock, certain iconic tunes immediately spring to mind - Cream’s “Crossroads,” Stevie Ray Vaughan’s “Texas Flood,” or ZZ Top’s La Grange”, for example.

They really aren’t intended for this long of a run. In fact, you’d have to use at least 2 RV extension cords to travel this distance. □ġ20 feet is a really long distance to use an RV extension cord. There’s a reason why RVs come with a minimum of a 30 amp input. But you aren’t going to have too much luck running both at once (or with other 120 appliances) I hope you aren’t planning on running high energy use appliances in your RV via a 15 amp connection. A quick check of prices showed the Camco 25 foot 30 amp extension cord is as inexpensive, or even costs less, than the household specific ones on Amazon. Not sure why you would want to buy one of these instead of an RV specific one. If you could find a 10 gauge heavy duty, outdoor use household extension cord that is of high quality maybe you could get away with using it. ![]() I see that is may have a slightly smaller 15 amp end, but I seriously doubt you are going to gain any storage space using this dog bone over the Camco one. ![]() The Conntek 15200 (30 amp female to 15 amp male) dog bone would be a fine choice. Thanks for visiting and for the question! I assume you are wanting to put some sort of 120-volt patio lights around your RV? Why not just plug them into your RV’s external 120-volt power outlets that are being fed when your rig is plugged into the 30 amp outlet? Just keep in mind that when you plug a 50 amp RV into a 30 amp outlet you have to be very careful to limit the number of high power consuming devices at one time to not trip the power pedestal’s 30 amp circuit breaker. You can get this type of a setup going from a 50 amp power source to a 30 amp RV plug and a 15 amp household plug, but not the other way around. No manufacturer in their right mind would put out a product capable of this. In other words, you would be asking a 30 amp power source to supply up to 65 amps of power (50 amp + 15 amp). To ask the 30 amp power source to additionally supply a potential 15 amps of power (the standard household outlet that you want to run porch lights from) would mean a further potential power deficit. You are asking a 30amp power source to supply power to a 50 amp rig, so you are already running a potential power deficit. Not that I’m aware of and here’s my take on why. The Conntek looks like it would be difficult as well. With the original plug I also had a terrible time disconnecting it. ![]() I’ve looked at Home Depot, Lowes, Amazon, and internet searching and the one that looks promising is the Conntek 30 amp. The hatch is 2″ deep, 2.7″ ID and the hole in the side of the trailer is 3″. The cord end must have flipped up and caught on the folded stair pretty quickly after the end sheared off as there is very little wear on the cable. At some point on our return home yesterday on a 240 mile trip, the cord wiggled out and the connector sheared right off. Upon returning home, I found the cord without a connector stuck on the folded stair with about 4 ft of cable protruding. The hatch lid had broken off years ago and the cord always stayed put…. The mini did not quite fit all the way into the hatch, the slight protrusion seemed ok. I replaced it with the Camco mini to ease unplugging. The plug pulled apart from the sheathing exposing the individual wires. The original plug looked like the one “Kelly” had in this article. ![]() The DirectX SDK has to be installed for this to work.

All empty slots are fundamentally broken, loading varying amounts of graphics data from Emerald Hill Zone (depending on the build). This order is mirrored (with empty slots cut out) by some prototype level select screens. ![]() Occupied by Genocide City Zone in prototypes. Palette and object/ring locations remain. Metropolis Zone covers two level slots as it has three Acts. ![]() The internal level order can be seen by using Pro Action Replay code (FFFE10:?00), substituting the question marks with the hexadecimal values for the level slots described in the table below and then attempting to enter any level (any number past 10 crashes the game). It gives some clues as to what the original progression looked like, and the differences are quite significant. Like its predecessor, Sonic 2 on the Mega Drive lays out its levels in a different order internally to how the player sees them when playing through the game. Sounds like a slightly shorter version of Mystic Cave Zone's bridges stopping in place ( $69). Sounds not used anywhere in the game can be heard in the sound test, some of which are leftovers from the original Sonic the Hedgehog. This has been established to be the music meant for Hidden Palace Zone. In the sound test, song $10 is a unused song. The final version of Hill Top Zone is also not suited to 2-player thanks to some level gimmicks, such as its inside lava sections these make it impossible to back-track to the beginning of the stage by creating dead-ends, so if the two players were at opposite ends, the slower player would in theory get stuck.ĭue to the way scrolling is handled in Oil Ocean Zone, part of the background is never seen. However, the parallax effect for the clouds is missing and some parts are corrupted, and while sharing data with Emerald Hill Zone means the foreground also renders correctly, objects are not optimised, meaning the experience is still noticeably buggy. Hill Top Zone's background is partially optimised for 2-player mode the background scrolls independently for both players, which cannot be said for other 1-player only levels. It is theorised that this may be a leftover from an early version of the level, as with the final art the seam is quite obvious. As the code executes, the effect is reverted, so cannot be not seen without hacking. Its object ID is $17.Ĭode exists to scroll part of the top tree background layer at a different rate, giving the impression it is closer to the camera. Unfortunately, the graphics have been deleted, but the coding is intact. The spinning log spikes from Sonic the Hedgehog's Green Hill Zone. Placing one with a subtype greater than 17 will spawn garbage objects on the right. Its height is equal to 16*(lower five bits of subtype)+16 pixels. Again, the graphics no longer exist in the ROM. The waterfall object from Hidden Palace Zone, which is also left over. It's a simple solid indestructible object and its coding hasn't changed since the Nick Arcade prototype. The graphics are long gone, but the code is still there. The emerald-shaped object that was used in Hidden Palace Zone to block off a tube. However, only those that are 6 segments long are used (subtypes 05 and 15), leaving all other subtypes unused.Īlthough very similar to the small platforms used in Metropolis Zone, this platform behaves strangely, usually rising at an angle. The blue bubble snakes in Chemical Plant Zone have many subtypes that define their movement pattern ( 00- 0F for jumping back and forth, 10- 1F for jumping between the floor and ceiling) and their length, which can be any number of segments between 1 and 16. The upper four bits can be used to offset when it starts to rise in the air. The amount of time it floats in the air is 128*(lower four bits of subtype) frames. Every 1024 frames, it will slowly rise up for 128 frames, float in the air, then come back down 128 frames later. To see it, a monitor's subtype should be set to 00.Ī hovering platform for Chemical Plant Zone that has been around since the Nick Arcade prototype.
