    The B-52's (Official Thread)

    I was hanging round their turf a few years before they took off. The talent there was astounding but nobody knew about it. I'm pretty sure I hit on the big redhead during one of my drunken rampages in an Augusta nightclub in 1973. Their big influence was Talking Heads. Look up the producer...

    I was trying to find what I thought was an Aldo Nova song once called a radio station played some notes on the guitar had them stumped but apparently they enjoy such snipe hunts - got back to me that it was Fire on High by ELO - try that route if they can identify an instrumental they can...

    Forgotten Bands of the Sixties

    my guess would be the usual- signed with a big predatory label - got 2 smash hits and the execs started howling for more - had them do every piece of crap song some veep liked... the guys got tired of being dragged into a studio to do hogcrap like the Nebraska Hogtacklers Song and rebelled -...

    Re: 40 years of great Funk! I love Terry Knight. For his contribution to Rock he should be in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. Impaled on a BC Rich Warlock. - big end first - to the tuners - with the mummy of Michael Jackson shoved down his gullet until only a sequined glove can be seen...

    truth of the matter is we're all just a bunch of dumb cattle looking for a patch of grass somebody hasn't pooped on yet there's some like it that way and poop as much as possible (see Rap and Hip Hop and _________ <viewer choice>) fortunately there's Muses that take pity on the herd now and...

    Every decade had horrible stuff. If I wanted to put you to a merciless death of agonizing madness I'd lock you in a room with Freddy and the Dreamers playing until your brainpan exploded. I have no doubt that somewhere in a garage some kid is working on something that will set it all off...

    Artists/bands that saved the 80s from total oblivion

    Poco had wheels for a while there (can't believe people still have vinyl). The grudge against the 80s always intrigued me. Some of what are considered hard rockers like Neil Young loved the 80s sound. As I recall what happened was what took place in the mid 70s. Some of the big dogs of...

    Artists/bands that saved the 80s from total oblivion

    Very true. I was a rotten player in my first years but I got good gigs. That is the odd nature of the beast. You could be a great player, have good moves, even your own superior material and never get a shot - while a total bozo got TV gigs. In fact if all you were was a good player you...

    Felix Cavaliere's Rascals

    Re: Felix Cavaliere show Warren Zevon got his start at White Whale - when it went belly up (atrocious pun) he was out in the cold and had to start all over. A couple other small names and that was it. After it went down K&V bought their songs for a song (ugh I got it bad today) from the...

    Artists/bands that saved the 80s from total oblivion

    Not ragging on you bro. Your examples show how desperate rock was becoming when major acts had to do disco to get any sales. I can't think of an act that didn't start as a joke band, it's where you learned the craft. The payoff came when an exec heard your demo and sent a promo man out with it...

    Felix Cavaliere's Rascals

    Re: Felix Cavaliere show No doubt about it they had stage presence - Kaylan proved that by shoving Mr.T on stage and getting him to loosen up and not get moidalized - I'm still in awe of that. However they did one of the dumbest things I ever saw a made act do - they were the only act White...

    Artists/bands that saved the 80s from total oblivion

    Oh yes Disco did hurt rock. I went to some Disco bars and they BOOED if the DJ tried to play rock and roll. Disco dingbats hated rock and roll. Rock stations began going to Disco formats and without that outlet a lot fewer upcoming rock groups had a vehicle for getting their music out...

    Artists/bands that saved the 80s from total oblivion

    What nearly destroyed rock was Disco Vomit - it was a 70s creation. The 80s thankfully killed off that abomination and rock began a slow recovery. The 80s get a bad rap - all I have to remember is John Travolta and leisure suits.

    favorite 80's bands

    Re: What Are Your 80s Favorites? Gotta put in a word for Billy Idol. Rebel Yell - White Wedding - Hot in the City - the kind of elemental rock that never gets old - and Eyes Without a Face shows his range. If Rebel Yell doesn't rear up your rock and roll soul you might be a butterfly...
