Music I have never got bored of

That's their regular guitarist, Craig Chaquico.

Now isn't that weird.
You And I share very similar musical tastes and yet I love Joe Cocker's voice.
Janis Joplin sometimes grated with me....
But I love the rough, gruff voices, male or female.....
Rod Stewart with The Faces, Steve Marriott with The Small Faces,Humble Pie and The Packet of Three,
And what about Beth Hart???
Another rough voice that I love.

Saw them twice Milo. Loud and funky. 110 db one fan said. Damaged the ceiling at the Albany Rooms in Nottingham I recall 😂
Never saw Budgie 😠

Shame, you would have loved them.
They were heavy, but funky, soulful and a bit acoustic too.
I am sure you know their music though.

Sure. I only have one Budgie album though strangely, must have played it 100 times over the years - "Never Turn Your Back On A Friend"

RIP Neil Peart.
One of the greatest rock drummers. And his lyrics helped Rush become a prog monster. I will crank up my CD of Caress Of Steel tomorrow am. and lift a glass of Canadian whisky to a true pioneer.

They are awesome. I posted one of their songs (Erotica) on the first page already. Here are some more from two of their many live albums:

Man - C'Mon

Man - 7171-551

Check out their performance on the 4 LP set of Live at the Roundhouse - "Spunk Rock" is easily their best ever jam captured on tape.

No drugs required. The music takes you there.

4 LP set? Which year? 1976 or 1975? The album Maximum Darkness I posted above was recorded there. That's probably the one you meant, right?


The band smoked more dope than Cheech & Chong...

Yes - just realised that TheOther - I used to have the album I refer to, but traded it:(( It is an album of multi groups such as Brinsley Schwarz and Hawkwind, as well as Man.... and the 20 plus minute version of Spunk Rock was akin to Little Feat in it's magnificence.


But like with all good rock music, you didn't have to take drugs yourself. I never smoked as a 20 something year old, because listening to Hendrix and others was mind altering.

"Jam up Jelly Tight / Oh No, Not Again (Spunk Rock '73)" is another great jam. 21 minutes long.

I miss Stacia... :)

Thanks The Other. Smokin.'
Just trying to take in the news about Neil Peart. 25 pages already on SteveHoffman.tv. Very sad:(

I was at that gig!!

And the air was full of the smell of hash...........

And I have just remembered that at that Roundhouse gig, supporting Man were Deke Leonard's Iceberg and the amazing Quicksilver Messenger Service.
It was a very hippy gig................

Cracking days. I just thought of that as normal at the time. Amazing that you were there. I had tickets for Knebworth one year but my parents wouldn't let me go:(

Have you ever been to a five hour long Grateful Dead concert with a few thousand potheads? :)

Speaking of: anyone remember these guys?

David Peel & The Lower Eastside - Alphabet Song

youtu.be/Xx4QkxBzUjI

I once declined a free ticket to a Dead concert. The person with the ticket told me " Once the band starts everyone turns around and watches the real show" lol

He meant the freak show! Haha, I admit, the crowd would be fun, but the band still sucks......

You had a narrow escape! Why bother with that tedium when we have Ronnie Van Zant and Skynyrd!

youtu.be/4z3gkq_gWL4

I saw them once in Europe in a small concert venue. Probably 3000 GIs in there, everybody stoned. The show itself was endless and pretty much unbearable. Grateful Dead is more about the audience than about the music, you're right. They had their best phase when they released the "Live/Dead" album in 1969. That one was great. After that: too much Country music for my personal liking.

@TheOther
Thanks for starting this thread.

Thanks for giving me the idea... :)

Here are two concert videos for you guys. Not the best sound quality, but who cares.

Hot Tuna - Full Concert - 11/20/76 - Capitol Theatre (OFFICIAL)
youtu.be/IiniZha6PQM

Patti Smith Group - Full Concert - 05/11/79 - Capitol Theatre (OFFICIAL)

youtu.be/oUCBQc1t_gE

Never get into them for some reason. They missed the hooks of Jefferson Airplane....me and my school pal were looking for some guitar music to replace Hendrix - seeing as he'd upped and died...

We settled on Alvin Lee and Ten Years After, Wishbone Ash, Robin Trower and Rory Gallagher - all of which somehow failed to fill the void. It seems we weren't looking very hard, but Hot Tuna didn't make any waves in the UK.

Love Patti Smith!

Very similar to me and my friends.
But we liked Hot Tuna too.

There was this guy who could play a bit.......:):)
..but...but..we were SO serious about music and weren't wise enough to get Franks' genius.

@Dougpol1

Zappa was a genius.I was buying his records in the mid seaventies.
Unfortunately I never saw him live.

@TheOther

Yeah, I know Airbourne, a bit of an AC/DC soundalike band, but they are good.


I was surprised that you would even heard of Taste.
You did good to discover them.

Hey Mods
You killed my embedded links in todays post but have not deleted my failed post from yesterday that I aasked you to delete.
Why?

Well, you asked:
