On occasion, celebrating the midweek hump with a meticulously curated selection of the most disrespectful, impolite, disgraceful, badass, head-banging, disturbing, irreverent, rebellious, most enjoyable rock n roll of its time feels like a perfectly responsible thing to do, for some reason. Or no reason at all. Crank it up!
Trump Derangement Syndrome is alive and well in the music industry. Fuck Offspring – they suck anyway.
One pill makes you larger, one pill makes you small. Jefferson Airplane – White Rabbit
Cutting edge, in 1976. Supernaut – I Like It Both Ways
Mongolian folk rock – tasty rhythm lick. NINE TREASURES – Wisdom Eyes
Punks on bicycles. MAID OF ACE – BONE DETH
Too far to get home. Alice In Chains – Would
Thanks Karajan. I remember having a big crush on Grace Slick and thinking she was the most talented woman in the world. I liked the Mongolian folk rock; it was a good song, even if I could not understand the words.
Have you seen Grace recently? Yikes! Time marches on.
She was pretty hot in her day, judging by this video.
I like the way you put together these eclectic mixes each week. Something old, something new, something foreign, something familiar, etc. The Alice in Chains selection takes me back to the days when I was fortunate enough to attend lots concerts for free, they were just one of the hundreds of shows I attended over the span of 20+ years. Good times gone but not forgotten. RIP freedom.
Thanks, Orang. There’s so much good music in the world, and I never tire of finding it. It’s a refuge from the doom and gloom of the rising totalitarian state and a glimpse into the genius of human expression. The past 50 years have produced music like few other times in history – it will be marked as a golden era.
The song from JA was used in the movie Go Ask Alice movie. It was released in 1973.
The funny part is I smoked my first joint as Freshman on my way to a Teen Drug Awareness meeting. I along with about 6 other kids from the school were sent to the meeting by my High School, The meeting was put on by Crisis Hotline .
There I was at the meeting loaded, relaxed in a beanbag chair. When the long haired dude from Crisis Hotline asked us to answer truthfully, how many of us had smoked marijuana, my stoned ass ,shot my hand in the air in a split second.
This song has been stuck in y mind all day while working. Thanks for your contributions.
