Hixter Posted December 22, 2013 Share Posted December 22, 2013 Check out the Ballad of Dwight Fry from the Beat Club (1971). I love those Beat Club rehearsal videos.That was great! I didn't know those videos existed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Analogman Posted December 22, 2013 Author Share Posted December 22, 2013 It seems that the company who put that up is buying up all that sort of stuff. Another great one is Deep Purple doing No, No, No. Not the greatest song, but the footage is cool. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

calvino Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Rolling Stones manager protests Rock Hall of Fame, skips own induction http://www.chicagotribune.com/entertainment/la-et-ms-rock-hall-fame-andrew-loog-oldham-boycott-20140407,0,683711.story His main point, I guess, is that he can't do blow at his table if he wants, because the festivities are being filmed (unlike 20 years ago). I listen to his radio show sometimes, he does have some great stories. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
NoJ Posted April 7, 2014 Share Posted April 7, 2014 Are you kidding? You liked KISS as a ute but not Cooper? Christ, man! That '70-'75 period has some of the best riffs this side of Keef imo. I don't give a shit about the "shock rock" thing, but there's some mighty fine rock and roll songs by the original band. MB, you gotta read "What you want is in the limo".....a good portion of the book is about Alice Cooper's rise to fame and glory. I'm not an Alice Cooper fan but now I'm sorta intrigued. One factoid....the lead guitarist was so wasted all the time that the band brought in another guy to play on the album/tour. Sometimes they'd just turn his guitar off during shows and he wouldnt even notice. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I have no idea who half those women are - and I wonder why they chose women to sing Nirvana songs. The choice of the singers who fronted the band was nothing short of masterful: One performer who influenced the core band members as teens, and even produced the only album by late-era guitarist Pat Smear's first band, the Germs (Joan Jett); another who was both an influence and a key mentor early in the band's career (Sonic Youth's Kim Gordon); another who discovered Nirvana at the age of nine and has gone on to a highly individual career -- and is herself a shredding guitarist (St. Vincent's Annie Clark); and finally, a highly individual teenaged singer who wasn't even born when Cobain died, and who looks to be doing a good job so far of facing down the star machine that caused him so much pain.

tinnitus photography Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 edit - I wonder if he mentioned Dale Crover Brief speeches from Grohl -- who classily thanked each of the Nirvana drummers who preceded him, particularly Chad Channing -- Quote Link to post Share on other sites
IRememberDBoon Posted April 11, 2014 Share Posted April 11, 2014 why didn't they let Courtney sing some Nirvana songs?? she would have been a better fit than the ones that played IMO Quote Link to post Share on other sites
