You're on fire, Hank! I can't agree with you on everything, of course, but we share many of the same hates. You're right about Santana. They're largely no good. Least your parents had some seriously decent stuff in their record collections.

I do enjoy hearing you slag off Led Zeppelin, Pink Floyd and all that. Fusion too. And hippies. I'm always gonna love a bit of Can and La Dusseldorf type stuff, though. And music to my ears to hear Zappa slagged!

I always make plenty of serious exceptions, but it does seem that most moves away from the basic templates of rock & roll, rockabilly, blues, country and all that after the 50s were failed experiments.

Of course, we can't agree on everything... world would be a more boring place if we all liked exactly the same stuff....

Santana are of course all solid... no, that's wrong.... better than solid... or maybe that's part of the problem... they were very good professional musicians... but that's not the problem, really... Booker T. & The MGs, The Funk Brothers at Motown or The Meters etc. were also very good.... it's the showing off of their skills....

Santana got a good groove but then it gets on my nerves with all the wanking solos...

drum solos are even worse for me... in rock music, I should say...

I love Art Blakey getting wild or almost any other hard bop drummers, even Elvin Jones, I love swing drummers and all.... but I can't stand, say Iron Butterfly's In-a-Whatever Vida....

Sorry for the rant and the old hippy bashing... It's a little tedious since all the punk rockers always went on about that, and some of the new wave deserves a good bashing, too...

It's definitely not about the long hair with me. Some longhairs are not hippies.... I really like the Stooges (apart from the awful John Cale composition "We Will Fall" on their first lp) and I like most of the Velvets stuff, even some of the Lou Reed solo stuff, I like a few MC5 songs and some of the New York Dolls and Flaming Groovies stuff and some Modern Lovers stuff, it's all punk rock "avant la lettre" or simply decent rock'n'roll if you want ....a bit of glam and even some pub rock is fine, too... CCR look like hippies but if you listen to the songs it's down to earth rock'n'roll, too.... or some Big Star and some Alex Chilton solo stuff is alright as well...

But in general the late sixties and early seventies were not a good time for rock'n'roll... All the rock classics compilations, and the radio stations playing "classic rock" songs (always the same 200 songs) or "album oriented rock", dumbass dickweed "rock critics" making lists and "analysing" Dylan lyrics and advertising all this corporate so-called underground...

Punk rock just had to happen... in the US, in the UK and in Australia at the same time!!!

...and the first four Ramones albums, the early Cramps stuff, Johnny Thunders and the Heartbreakers, The Dead Boys, the first albums by the Clash and the Damned, the Saints and the Radio Birdman stuff... that's all real rock'n'roll...

some good rock'n'roll radio here:

http://www.thehound.net/

all styles, rockabilly, r&b, doo wop, surf, garage, soul....

(although there is even a show with a little rap set)

Failed Experiments, right!

But there's lots of good rockin stuff after the 50s, too...

It probably starts around 1966/67.... Take the Pebbles compilations as a typical example.... For those who don't know about this stuff, obscure "garage rock" or "sixties punk" (and unlike the earlier "Nuggets" not even one-hit-wonders, it's all failed stuff)...

The first 10 Pebbles compilations are all good except one of them: Vol.III The Acid Gallery.... (except maybe one or two tracks)... Most of this "Acid Punk" or "Psychedelic Garage" is just badly recorded hippy shit....

....and here's why Slayer was such a bad example: Heavy Metal is also hippy shit! They might change love and peace to Hate and War, but it's the same contrived bullshit. It's music for people who play Dungeon & Dragons and seen all the Lord of the Ring movies, twice! people with long hair and short dicks....

Let's get back to jazz tomorrow....

seriously, what's going on here???

Santana, my ass... Hippie shit!!!

I hate this love and peace bollocks...

They were so awful at Woodstock (well, Woodstock was awful in general) that these dirty longhairs started to fuck some sheep...

and there you see, that's what hippydom leads to... bestiality!!!
Tell me this isn't great, Hank. Wait for the drum solo, amazing. If you don't like this I have some brown acid for you. http://youtu.be/8BB_aeN61lA
Rock festivals, "open air" festivals (you couldn't stand being in a room with such a bunch of smellies, anyway)... it's all not for me...

If I was a more violent character, and not the peaceful saint that I am, I'd fancy myself being a copper beating up the lot!!! Or pulling them by their hair or kicking them in the heads with my longwings...

I wonder what would happen if Hank ran into a group of" smellies." Let us imagine for a minute, that three hippies are touring Europe on their motorcycles. They stop at a diner where Hank, the local "copper",(dressed in cowboy boots not longwings)is having lunch with a group of friends. Let's pick up the story as the three hungry hippies enter the diner ... http://youtu.be/GzRYQcsTjWc

Luckily the three didn't run into Hank on the open road. I'd hate to think what would have happened if Hank pulled up alongside them in his pickup with a shotgun...

Listen to the first 20 seconds or so of these two back to back. Very similar.

Yep, digging that mate. Years ahead of Acid Jazz and yet still sounds fresh.

Steve, heard the Nancy Wilson version? Not better, just different...I'm a bit of a Nancy W fan. Stunning voice, stunning to look at.
