Greetings Rocksmith fans!
The decades packs continue with the groovy 60s pack coming to us today. Featuring three classic psychedelic rock tracks, including two debuting artists, you aren’t going to want to miss this one!
First up, we have the return of The Doors with their 1967 classic Love Me Two Times from the album Strange Days. Long time rhythm game fans may remember this one from Guitar Hero World Tour, as well as being launch DLC for Rock Band 3, but this is the first time we can play it on real guitar!
Next, we have a legendary band that’s appeared a little bit in rhythm games in their various incarnations, but have never made their way over to Rocksmith. Truly one of the all time greats of the San Francisco scene, from Jefferson Airplane‘s 1967 album Surrealistic Pillow we have White Rabbit!
Finally, we have somewhat of a more obscure act that’s never appeared in any game before. The first Dutch act since Focus all those months ago, Shocking Blue are the originators of both Nirvana’s debut single Love Buzz, and Bananarama’s infectious 80s hit Venus. Now, for the first time ever their music appears in a game as Venus, one of the biggest songs off of 1969’s At Home, comes to Rocksmith 2014!
Even better for those of us who hate detuning, all three tracks here are in E Standard (although the Doors song is tuned slightly sharp)!
- The Doors “Love Me Two Times” – E Standard: A446 – [XBL] / Steam
- Jefferson Airplane “White Rabbit” – [XBL] / Steam
- Shocking Blue “Venus” – [XBL] / Steam
