Foxhound, it would be awesome if you wanted to do a thread on one, two or even all three bands you just posted in the brandy new punk forum
Man, Teenage Head were some ugly dudes lol, they might be right up there with Motorhead....

 

[Foxhound]

Yes! I was thinking of doing precisely that over the next few days - but one at a time of course to make sure each has time enough to get the attention it properly deserves.

I'm also planning to start a thread on some of the great old blues harp players such as Slim Harpo, Junior Wells, Little Walter and Sonny Boy Williamson (both of them).

Don't know much bout the older blues folk (or frankly care, sorry, I can respect them, but if I really need to get the blues on it will just be my BB king cassette, or Blues Brothers soundtrack lol, I'm not often in a bluesy mood) but yeah, just get around to it one of these days and hopefully "one of these days" for you is not the same it is for me, I keep saying I'm going to do ____ one of these days, but one of these days hasn't happened for years lol......

Yeah, just because they sold millions, doesn't make them great. Case in point, Spice Girls.
