warning--off topic

zevele1

there is definitely no need whatsoever to make an apology--I was not offended by your statement in any way, but rather, I was just saying "I second Scronch's motion," so as to keep out topics that might close the thread. Forgot about that other topic that got it closed.

zevele1,
Nashville junk!?!?!
I grew up there. Actually, most of it IS "junk".
Whenever there are discussions about music, artists, publishers and producers, I think of the record executives that I have had the "pleasure" to meet ... most are obsenely wealthy and some are just plain obsene. They all have one thing in common and that is that the artists that they represent are just chattel to them. You can think what you want about music piracy but, from what I've seen, the Music Executives Cartel, a.k.a. R.I.A.A. are the EXACT wrong people to represent the artists.
This IS "off topic" here, right?
Back to "Nashville Junk" ... try Bonepony - Voodoo Banjo.mp3 or Mountainside.mp3. It's quite good and they ARE Nashvillians.

have you ever heard Robbie Fulks - #### This Town? It's about his experience in trying to get a record deal in Nashville. Can't put the lyrics here if we want to keep the thread open, but try http://www.thestranger.com/2001-09-06/music.html for an album review, or http://robbiefulks.com/lyricstab/southmouthlyrics.html#12 for lyrics. The song mentions BR-549--I like them. And Wayne Hancock. My Mother-In-Law is a die-hard country fan. We can never agree on music on road trips (we drive to Illinois once or twice a year). Last year I brought some Wayne Hancock and BR-549 CD's and popped them in as we were heading in to Texas. My M-I-L woke up, made a face like she'd just took a swig from the beer can that she'd been using as an ashtray, and said "This is the kind of hillbilly crap that my parents used to listen to." Sorry, its not that chubby bald guy with the cowboy hat pickin' and grinnin' on the sody-pop commercial, or Ms. Shenida Twang and her softcorn porn country. But it's what I think of as country. Just like early Hank Thompson and Bob Wills. He-haw! My recently departed dad--a real hillbilly who helped out in his uncle's speakeasy when he was a kid, really enjoyed listening to Wayne, Robbie, BR-549, Hank Williams III, Big Sandy & His Fly-Right Boys, and even Neko Case. I grew up with this style of music (along with the great ones: Johnny Horton, Marty Robbins, Claude King, Hank Snow, Johnny Cash, Hank Williams Sr. and Wynn Stewart).  I still enjoy it--but for very short periods at a time. It kills brain cells faster'n hooch.

MHead - Minnesota-eh .  I spent 5 years there.  Used to be kind of cool when we had as many Packer fans in the Roller Dome as Minnehaha put up ViQueens fans.  Nowadays, it's different.  Lots of people pay lots of money to watch Moss play one or two plays a game.  Ear plugs are a necessity, not due to a good crowd, but due to the obnoxiously loud music the Vikes' cronies pipe in when the visitor has the ball.  Even Sports Illustrated is complaining about it.  I suppose if that's what it takes to win...  I do like the Scandi women over there, though; so much that I married one.

Nashville junk was a kind of "shortcut"I love a lot of country from Nashville.My father did some business with US army and was friend with some "boss' from the base.We got some country and R&R records from them.Once i saw a concert inside the base.I was very young and it was kind of a fairytale for me.One of my aunt was in the US with US army during the war,and was mad about country music after that.Like this,in a town south of France,i can say that i grew up on country for a part
I know Nashville,i found a lot of records there[rock] and i still have my Dolly Parton best of with the Ernest Tuub sticker on it.   BR-549 is good

zevele1- I have a friend who used to play in a bar band. One night I went to see these guys play and my friend, who didn't do much lead singing got his chance. Most of the people didn't know what to make of him when he put on a pair of old hornrims, complete with tape around the middle. He then sang 'blister in the sun' in his best Jerry Lewis voice. It was the best show I had seen him do.

zevele1,
Get rid of Gator. It's spyware big time. You'll have to go to both the registry and Windows Explorer to get rid of it completely.

I grew up watching and listening to Flatt & Scruggs on TV every Saturday afternoon and Grand Ole Opry on the radio on Saturday night. Hank Williams, Sr., early George Jones and the above are the REAL Nashville sound to me. This new stuff is crass commercialism written and performed for the money instead of the music. Business and not art. I suppose all genres of music are like that to some degree. There's nothing wrong with making a living - even a GOOD living - doing what you love.
But who started everybody thinking of the money first? I'm going to leave it at that because I can get all worked up on this subject quickly.

More good Nashville musicians:
Bonepony (mentioned them before)
Barefoot Jerry
Tracy Nelson
Dianne Davidson

BTW, ONE of Johnny Cash's houses is about a half mile from here. He seems to like it here because everybody knows who he is but they leave him alone. I've seen him at Wal-Mart, at the convenience store on the corner and at the local hardware store. Nice guy, suprisingly.

MHorton - I gave Marillion a brief listen.  My conclusion so far is that I will need to hear more.  I like some and dislike some of what I've heard:

---------------------------------------------
Lavender - Nice.  More like Gabriel's early solo work than his Genesis output.

Incommunicado - Too ELP-like for my tastes ("Welcome back my friend to the show that never ends...")  Gabriel had some of that early on in his solo efforts, but pretty much dumped it.

Tux On - OK.  More like post-Hackett Genesis.

Kayleigh - I recognize this song!  Bit too much of a ballad for me.

Warm Wet Circles - Good instrumental, very Hackett-like.

I Know What I Like (with Steve Hackett, live 1986 Genesis cover) - Very cool.  A lot of emotion.
---------------------------------------------

It's strange listening to stuff like this.  I'm not sure if I'm disappointed or relieved that it's not quite what I had hoped.  Maybe I'm just tired.  Goodnight.

Foxtrot :heavy stuf,far from the light side of Trespass.'Supper's ready 'quitte a piece.The kind of album you need to listen a lot of times
Selling England: more like Trespass,much more airy than Foxtrot.
I will have more to say after a play on the stereo,just listening to the music.

Zev - Listening in the kitchen, heh heh.  Good for you.  You home in quickly on the meat of things.  Supper's Ready is a gem.  And Selling England by the Pound is my personal favorite Genesis album, possibly my favorite album, period.

Zevele1

Right. 1971 was the year I bought my first Gong and Genesis albums. Listened to them steadily untl 1980 or so. For western swing, Hank Thompson & His Brazos Valley Boys and Bob Wills & His Texas Playboys set the agenda. I bet they're on those albums, Zevele1, but who else stands out?

Scronch

Gabriel era Genesis was my favorite band throughout the 70's, but 1977-1980 was tough because there was nothing new to listen to. Per that was a major influence in my drift drift and then subsequest move in to other genres entirely. If I had known about Neuschwanstein, England and Marillion at that time, things may have gone differently for me musically. Hope you find something enjoyable there.

yes, "Imagine" is there, but its surrounded by the likes of the following, and this is supposed to represent the "high;ights" of the year:

One Bad Apple
Maggie May (gets my vote for the most annoying song ever)
Knock Three Times
Rose Garden
Gypsies, Tramps & Thieves

I've gotta stop there--too much like reliving a bad trip. No wonder so many people did drugs . . .

Salvation comming with the english punk and the New York wave.Again an other circle, punk,new wave.After a certain time ,disco,a kind of "new wave/midlle of the road " .Grunge,hardcore,us punk,new wave of heavy metal comming to put train on the rails

JollyJim

many of the recent threads involved problems that were too technical in nature, and therefore way above some of our heads, so some of us resorted to discussing actual music for awhile, until the other threads get easier again. But Doof got the first "test" thread closed, so we started "test II." JimH must be sympathising a little, because he's left us pretty much alone.  Care to discuss your musical tastes? your musical journey?

MHorton
Thanks for the explanation
I would like to discuss my musical taste, but it's something I find very difficult. The problem I have is that you guys may not want to communicate with me any more. It's all to do with the problems I've had in my head over a period of years. No it is'nt. Oh yes it darn well is. Sorry, that's what happens when I try to open up. My psychiatrist keeps telling me that talking about my problem will give me ownership, empowerment and then absolution if only I will discuss it. No it wont. It will, it will - oh my god, there I go again. That was'nt you, it was me. Get back, get away from me. Sorry, to continue. This can't continue, I can't carry on this way. I'm just gonna have to come clean. This is like group therapy, but on your own. I can do it - I can make that final admittance and cleanse myself. No you can't. I can, I can - I'm gonna do it now. 'I like John Denver and I like Cliff Richard !!!!'

I've done it, I've finally done it. But, wait, hold fast, (pause), I don't feel any different. Yes I do. No I don't. Oh my god, please don't tell me that everyone now knows my deep guilty secret and I have'nt received any absolution. Oh no! Oh, woe is me !!

worst songs -

Tie a yellow ribbon
Hey Paula (I think that's what it's called, by Paul and Paula. Obviously, a lot of thought went into this one)
Shaddupa ya face (you may not have got this in the US - think yourself very lucky)
Y Viva Espana (ditto)
White Christmas (Bing Crosby)
anything else by Bing Crosby
anything heavily featuring electronic drum machines
anything by Tiny Tim (deceased)
anything by Boy George (hopefully, soon to be deceased)

and, especially, some tracks that prob never get heard outside the UK. They're by various football teams who put out a record, or more like a chant, extolling the virtues of their team. These are unbelievably mundane, banal and totally embarrassing to listen to. For those outside the UK who've never heard one of these, you have my envy. They are, in part, responsible for my previous post.

>ok, so he could'nt fly a plane to save his life.

No, he was an experienced pilot:

On his most recent medical application of record, dated June 13, 1996, he
reported a total flight time of 2,750 hours. He held a private pilot certificate,
with airplane ratings for single and multiengine land, single-engine sea and gliders.
He also held an instrument airplane rating and a Lear Jet type rating.


He lost control while reaching over his shoulder to operate a non-standard fuel selector.  OK, reaching over your shoulder is a little odd, but to lose control?

I will admit (oh, no) that I do like some of his music.  But not that country boy thing.  His fans and most GA pilots would be a lot happier if he had just been more careful that day.

Now his acting, well, I don't want to totally denigrate the dead, so I'll just say nothing at all.

Please don't banish me to the wastelands of guilt for this. In no particular order.
Black Sabbath-Paranoid. First time I heard this I had to pinch myself. Kinda scary.
Pink Floyd-Dark Side of the Moon. I know it has been played to death, but one of my favs.
Jeff Beck-There and Back. Maybe one of his most underrated, listened to it alot after parents split. No vocals to get in the way.
Grand Funk Railroad-Mark,Don & Mel. Hey I was young when the neighbors turned this one loose.
Husker Du-New Day Rising. Zevele I was completly surprised to see them on your list also. I made this discovery during my 'Blank' years. 59 times the pain was what my head used to feel like on most mornings.
Nirvanna-Nevermind. Thankfully these guys were credited for killing most hair band music.
Guns N Roses-Appetite For Destruction. I said most hair bands.
Sound Garden-Superunknown. I had a tough time with these guys, Badmotorfinger was also in mind.
Deep Purple-Machine Head. What can I say? One of my first album purchases was Made in Japan. I didn't get M.H. until recently. Boy did I ever miss out. Lazy is probably my all-time favorite.
Stevie Ray Vaughn-Anything he made. I was truly saddened when I heard he had died. I even remember where I was at that moment.
Savoy Brown-Lookin In. Another late in life discovery. Kim Simmonds masterful touch on anything with six strings is amazing.
There you have it. My favorites. I can't count either.Next Page

I hope the list-making continues

What I expected to find is that there will be artists on each list that we like, don't like and are indifferent to/unfamiliar with

What I didn't expect to find was people including albums from different periods of their musical life, eg:

theoretical top10, in no particular order:

Black Sabbath - Paranoid
Disney - Soundtrack to Snow White
Partridge Family - first album
Burl Ives - Chim Chim Cheree & Other Children's Choices
Sex Pistols - Never Mind the Bollocks Here's the Sex...
CSN&Y - Deja Vu
Tito Puente: Best of Tito Puente: El Rey del Timbal!
Jimmy Witherspoon: Blowin' in from Kansas City
Genesis - Foxtrot
Pavlov's Dog - The At The Sound of the Bell
Mott the Hoople - Mott

still working on mine, and still looking forward to other's lists (feel free to add commentary, as machinehead did--keeps it interesting, to me anyway)

sorry--an old alias slipped in there somehow. I've used that one, Leonides, Kitfox and countless others. Trying to gather all into one distinct personality is proving more difficult than I expected. The doctors say I'm making progress. "What's the point of being crazy if you can't have a little fun with it." John Nash, A Beautiful Mind (quote not exact)

Zevele1

correct. But, it's hard for me. My top10 albums right now are different that those that I would have chosen a year ago, and different from what I would lilely choose a year from now. From 1982-1985, I only listened to Celtic folk music. I really, really like that stuff, but I just don't listen to it any more. Did I like "Wolfe Tones - Let the People Sing" when I was 25 more or less than I liked "Burl Ives - Chim Chim Cheree & Other Children's Choices" when I was five? Did I like "Genesis - Selling Egland By The Pound" when I was 16 more or less than I liked "Handel - The Music for the Royal Fireworks" when I was 20? I afraid that if I list my 10 favorite albums of all time, that it will simply be a reflection of who I am musically at this given moment. And that wouldn't be fair to the previous musical lives of MHorton. (In other words, I'm having trouble making up my mind.)

If I had to make up this list ten years from now it may change. But that is ten years from now. At this particular time, however, it is what I consider to be my favorites. I'm constantly looking for something new, even if it is old. I have a friend who has shown me a lot of real treasures in the last few years. And most of it I have not heard before. I might also add that his collection is mainly vinyl, and to preserve what he has he is burning most of it to disc.

When I was a child (say 14 years old to as far back as I can remember), I liked folk, country and martial music. I had albums by Trini Lopez, the Kingston Trio, Peter, Paul & Mary (hated that Puff song, though--still do), Burl Ives, Pete Seeger, The New Christy Minstrels, The Brothers Four, Etc. I also liked to listen to albums that belonged to my dad or my uncle-in-law (when we visited), such as Johnny Horton, Johnny Cash (late 50s-early 60s material), Hank Williams Sr., Roger Miller, Claude King, Pee Wee King, and Marty Robbins. I really loved historical ballads. I also, for some silly reason, really loved martial music--you know, military marches. I was very hawkish as a child.

A friend gave me The Beatles - Meet the Beatles for my birthday in '64 (or so) but I just wasn't in to pop/rock at that time at all. Can't say why, though. Perhaps it was because they were singing about love and girls rather than battle and glory? I really don't remember.

In, or around 1973, I ran across Genesis - Live somehow, and it brought about the first change in my musical direction since I was born. I immediately become hooked on prog-rock--Camel, Caravan, Druid, Renaissance, M. Frog Labatt, Gong etc. But mostly Genesis. But I also became a big glam rock fan at that time too--David Bowie, Mott The Hoople, Roxy Music, the New York Dolls, Be Bop Deluxe, T. Rex. My mom and my aunt (married to my uncle-in-law that had all the good country albums from earlier), along with nearly all of my friends, and everyone at my high school, were fans for the Top40 music of the day. Chicago, the Eagles, The Average White Band, the BeeGees, J. Geils Band,  Rod Stewart, Fleetwood Mac. Yes, my mother listened to the same crap that my high school acquaintances listened to. Pretty sorry sate of affairs for rock the early to mid 70s. I liked the fact that no one I knew listened to, or had even heard of most of "my kind of music." To me, being a rebel had always meant rebelling from your peers--everyone rebels from their parent's generation (doing what your peers do in music, dress, slang--that's not being rebellious, its being a lemming).

Prog rock and glam rock lasted, for me, until I heard Television for the first time around the very end of 1978. Their debut album, Marquee Moon, came out in 1977, but since I hadn't listened to the radio since 1964 or so, I had to read about new stuff in rock magazines or run across stuff by accident. [I still don't listen to music on the radio. I listened to KROQ (an alternative rock station) during the early 1980s when I still lived in Los Angeles, and I listened to the Thistle & Shamrock program on NPR for awhile during that same time, but since 1993 (Nirvana-grunge takeover) now only listen to NPR news if a radio is turned on).

My college sweetheart during the late 70s pretty much just listened to church choir music, along with Mozart, Handel, Telemann, Vivaldi, etc, so I just listened to that for awhile. I'd say, that all in all, that classical is my favorite music, and it's what I typically listen to when alone. But, classical music puts my wife to sleep like right now, bless her heart. My wife and I agree one type of music, discussed later.

So, for a couple of years though I was a punk (1979-80), listening to the Damned, the Clash, The Jam, the Sex Pistols, The Buzzcocks, Generation X and later I added the Dead Kennedys, Black Flag, the Vibrators and the Zippers. This phase lasted less than 2 years, but my head still hurts thinking about it. I was working with my dad in construction (as sprinkler-fitters), and my dad had two partners--one was from England, the other from Ireland. My dad's ancestry was Native American, Welsh and English  [I'm adopted--my natural parents were born in Germany. I'm a tall thin blonde. My adopted parents were short, squat, dark-haired, with very high cheek bones--they looked Native American. My adopted mom was as close to being full-blooded Cherokee as one could be these days. I made for some funny "mail man" jokes.]. So, anyway, we'd go to either an Irish or English pub after work for beer, and they argued, and argued . . . . and argued (but none would ever fail to "stand their round."). So, for several years I listened to Genesis, Steeleye Span, Fairport Convention, the Albion Band, Ralph McTell alongside of the Wolfe Tones, Christy Moore, The Clancy Bros & Tommy Makem, the Pogues, the Oysterband, the Chieftons, as well as a couple of local Southern California Celtic bands, the Mulligans and Innisfree. From prog rock to grog rock.

The next, and last change in music direction came in 1989, when I met my [second]wife [had been divorced already for 6|PLS| years, so no bad ideas you guys]. She was (and still is) an alt/indie rock fan (she's 11 years younger than I, and feels like Doof about this music thread-- "I've never heard of any of these groups. I didn't know that you liked glam rock. What's prog rock? You listened to Johnny Cash? Trini Lopez!?!"

So, since 1989 I'm a big alt-rock fanatic--the Smiths, The Church, the Grapes of Wrath, et.al. But my wife and I still have different tastes. She likes new wave dance music like Depeche Mode and New Order, and I don't. I like paisley underground bands like Rain Parade, Dream Syndicate and Game Theory, and she doesn't. We both agree on jangle/power pop, such as R.E.M., Let's Active, the dB's, Guadalcanal Diary, and The Connells, and on indie pop, twee pop, chamber pop and on shoegazing. Her favorite band is, perhaps The Stone Roses. We find that there is a lot that we can both listen to and enjoy. She loathes anything with even the tiniest twinge of country, though.

Lastly, I have to add that since 1989, I've reevaluated my position on the Beatles, and find their early work immensely enjoyable. Much to the great pleasure of my wife and I, we've rediscovered the Searchers, the Turtles, the Dave Clark Five and most importantly, the Byrds, and listen to the music of 1963-1967 quite a bit now. The music in my computer (and therefore on Music01) is alternative and oldies.  

Favorites (no order):

Trash Can Sinatras - Cake
Byrds - Younger than Yesterday
Byrds - Mr. Tambourine Man
Byrds - Turn! Turn! Turn!
The Church - Starfish

The Chills - Submarine Bells

Zevele!

I think that I am brain-dead today. 99% of what you say I understand fully and enjoy reading. Today, though, I am having a problem. Maybe it is this pounding headache. But, . . . .

>>>>New-york dools in glam rock!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Put them in rock&roll...PPPPLLLEASE

I will comment on this when I get back later

>>>>I will not be long today,but i will come back latter

looking forward to it

>>>>3 records of the same band on a top 10 is not usual!

why?

>>>>do you have a soft spot for "up-under'?

what?

>>>>The way you show us your list is of much more interest than my way

This is what I was hoping many people would do. Making a list is great, and interesting to read. Commentary on the list you've made is even better. But a short little history of how you got from point A to point B in your music likes is even better. I left out any description of WHAT I SPECIFICALLY ENJOY about the music itself because I'm not good at that. You, machinehead and Scronch have done very good with that. I'm impressed. Just different mindsets is all. That is why I was a history major and not an English major. I was better at explaining how a great work of literatire fits in historically than I was in explaining why a great work of literature is a great work of literature.

>>>>on "the other post"did you mind salon litteraire?

what?

>>>>Do you know a site for classical,20th century american compositers?

No, sorry. I'll look. Are there any great 20th century american composers? (that outta get some people going . . .)

For when you gat back to this forum at some future date . . . .

Is it zevele10 now, or have I been calling you by the wrong name all along?

re the salon comment, you are correct about what I meant, and I'm quite positive that Tullio also knew what I meant, but that he was making a joke about the duel meaning of the word, and also the meaning of Hair vs. hair, as in the touchy-feely tie-in with the musical by that name (but I must admit, I didn't quite get his joke. I know that when I get it, I will find that it was very clever, and I'll kick myself for not getting it).

re up-under--comments for later also

I like my alt rock to be fragile, subtle and poetic: butterfly wings, not a hammer; a hang glider not a muscle car. I tend to find that alt/indie rock from NZ, Australia, England and Scotland is more to my taste than even the alt/indie rock from the US. The Steinbecks or Sugargliders over the Goo Goo Dolls or Guadalcanal Diary, for example. I think that if I sorted my music by country it would wind up 50% USA, 50% elsewhere, but if I categorized the music by favorites, the overwhelming majority of the songs in the "5" category would be from outside the US. I don't know why that is the case. One consistent theme--I do tend to listen to music that's in English, so I can understand the words.

Because i started to listen to "english musique" when a very small nice[?] boy.I and millions like me ,knows  what is it to not understand the lyrics
The day i started to understand the words,i saw that ,most of the time,better not to understand.Like this ,you do not feel embarrassed for the band.
I have a very soft spot for bands from NZ,and a soft spot for australiens one.In general,i am not a great fan of english music
Until after the Paisley underground,i can say that i had around 75% of US rock.But most of the best neo-psy and neo-garage bands are from Europe.So now i have a lot of "rock from non anglo countrys'The large part singing in english.
since having a computer,i do mp3 dics for my nephews.Most of them from Emusic,but according  to they tastes,not mine-of cause there is allways an "have try to this"cd in the lot-
And there is many punk from today bands that i like-Nofx[?] Electric Frankesten-Bands they asked for

One American artist that I really appreciate is David Steinhart--his work with Pop Art, his solo work, and recently with Smart Brown Handbag. I have 91 songs by this artist and one more CD on the way, and for me, so far they are all '5's.

Slobberbone favorites

Engine Joe
Gimme Back My Dog
Josephine
Lumberlung
[and every other song they've done]

my wife says that being forced to listen to Slobberbone is grounds for divorce in 126 counties--and not so in the remaining countries only because those countries hate women

I need help with a small problem. In MJ I'm now using Custom Field #1 as country (the country of origin of the band), so I can then make media library view schemes such as country/genre/artist. I'm not sure where to put the band "Ivy." Per AMG, "Less than a year after moving to New York from France in 1989, vocalist Dominique Durand formed the indie-pop band Ivy with guitarist Andy Chase." She has a French accent. So are they from France or the USA? I'd like to list them under France because then I can say that I have a French band (no others yet, I'm afraid. Recommendations?).Actually it doesn't really matter too much, and I really just wanted to talk about Dominique Durand anyway. http://www.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&sql=Aih9hs31qa3vg

Do you happen to know where the Autumn Leaves are from? Anyone? New Mexico, USA I think, but I'm not sure.

Cannot tell you more about Ivy.After few samples on Amazone,yes she has a french accent
It is not us music for sure,and there is few bands of the same kind of music in France.So you can put them as french
try to find Autour de Lucie[this is the name of the band]   Immobile
They had some succes in US,and they records are on american label as well.I have the french one on Columbia.They have more than this album,but not so good
Funny thing:first time i heard about them,was in an US magazine
You will like this band,i am sure ,and your wife will not jump as when you play the EXELLENT

Well,i do not know how to say it and not to look a monster
I can deal about my friend.Like me ,he was here as a choise.Like me not a political one.a "love one"[for the country].But it was a choise knowing the danger
It is much more difficult to deal with the family.At this time he was single-divorced one year ago-and alone here,all his family in France
The fact what he was here was not his family choise.And now,beyond the loost,they will have to deal with f### problems.Flat with still a morgage on it ,empty the flat and so on.Regular mess in such a case,but most of the time NOT with 5 thousands kilometers distance
A drop of luck.The divorce was kind of"gentlemen agrement".So his ex-wife,who is a lauwyer, will be of great help

Listening to Louise Attaque -same
I play music again.Only with lyrics in french.We have funny and stange  reaction.I need french at this time
Anyway i have one PassionFolder on cd,will put it on Audio,same for Louise Attaque

Just went down this post again to refresh. I want to add another song as worst ever recorded. Muskrat Love by Captain & Tenille. One of my sisters loved that song when it first came out. That was also about the time I started listening to Black Sabboth and similar. Makes me cringe just thinking about it.

Looking in to Young Marble Giant

You might try:

Hangdogs - Come The Night
Hangdogs - The World Is Yours
Bottle Rockets - Wave That Flag
Blue Mountain - Generic America

MachineHead --

Fortunately (or not) much of my work is at the computer, so I just brouse on over here for a little "diversion." Trouble is, a "diversion" used to mean getting up, stretching, resting my eyes, starting a load of laundry, and perhaps, eating something.

Deep Purple - Machinehead

I used to listen to that quite a bit. My best buddy's older brother would play it when he was on leave. Great album. My tastes have changed now though.

I'm headed out to take the dogs for a hike in the mountains. Will be gone the rest of the day. This morning my pet guinea pig died (Charmin--she was soft and fluffy). I know--just a "pocket pet." But no, I have very great passion for these animals. They (not humans) are proof to me that there is a god. Or at least that god has a sense of humor. I've had pet dogs since I was born but have never had the passion for them as I do for GPs. Charmin's mate, a hairless GP named Mr Biggles (the pet store nemed him) died last week, a couple of days before I left for Illinois. Perhaps that is why my posts have been so down this past week.  Tomorrow I will go sit on the beach for the day. or longer.

I'm seriously headed out the door--but have to say this

GP

With the "English" meaning of the abbreviation, my statement above is rather funny.

In the U.S., a "punk" is:

1. someone on the receiving end of prison sex, or likely to be due to their stature
2. a child with an attitude problem, but not otherwise a serious threat
3. someone not to be taken seriously

Maybe that's why "punk rock" didn't catch on as readily here as in England.

Charmin's sister died in labor a short time ago.

"punk rock" was first used in USA,not sure but maybe by Lester Bang.For all the "one Hit'garage bands.Shadows of night-chocolat w. b.,standells and many more
Punk in England  was in the "real" meaning of the word:seedy,shabby
English punk music did not make sens outside Europe.Was a very strong recession.And US was the real santuary of all this pre-punk mongoloide music punk was againts
