From the days when Fleetwood Mac were ballers….before they hired a chipmunk sounding vocalist spinning around in a cape…..that made them hundreds of millions of dollars.

*Richie Furay, formerly of Buffalo Springfield singing lead and Timothy B. Schmidt, later of the Eagles, singing backup.

* The Eagles made all the money off Country Rock, but they were not necessarily the best. Poco, Byrds with Gram Parsons, Flying Burrito Brothers with Gram, Gram with Emmylou, and Stephen Stills and Manassas all gave them more than a run for their money.

Wow, I haven't heard Japan in a while. They had a cool Ferry Roxy Music vibe.

^Yes exactly, they were a bridge between 70s glam rock and 80s new wave.



This IMO is the best French indie band to come out the last few years, a bit of a similar retro vibe:

With only an occasional insult being cast by an OG about modern music sucking.

I hate the label Classic Rock. It is simply Rock. Present day Rock music should be labeled Modern Rock to make it clear that it is usually little more that a b@st@rdization of Rock played by people with meager musical and song writing skills, and virtually unlistenable. When a Modern Rock act appears on SNL, I give them the gong and hook after 30 seconds in most cases.

Greta Van Fleet passed my test, however.

Greta is a little too close to their inspiration for my taste. Have you listened to Ty Segall? He dips into similar sources, but is way more original, imho. His catalog is massive and super solid.

I hear bits of Bowie, T Rex and Jerry Garcia. Maybe a sprinkling of Ray Davies. Yes, Mikey Likey.

That's my favorite track of them, an awesome instrumental not available on the Ta Det Lugnt CD but included in the triple LP edition:

That's a new track to me. Nice.

Dungen have a bunch of cool jammy instrumentals. I picture Tull on one leg whenever I hear this one

~ "Lydon later described the social context in which the band formed:
"Early Seventies Britain was a very depressing place. It was completely run-down, there was trash on the streets, total unemploymentjust about everybody was on strike...if you came from the wrong side of the tracks...then you had no hope in hell and no career prospects at all. Out of that came...the Sex Pistols and then a whole bunch of copycat wankers after us""

When I backpacked in Europe during the summer of '76 after graduating, I saw a dude in London with a green Mohawk. I had never seen anything close to that before.

London didn't seem dirty to me like Johnny Rotten described it. I have never been back. I see London all the time now in British police shows. It has lost a lot of charm in 50 years. Too modern now.
