the stark contrast to the "summer of love" '67 hippie s*** had to have been the heaviest and msot infernal music ever recorded by 1967

I thought that's what the Velvet Underground were doing Red Krayola too. probably everybody assumed there was lots of wild free jazz racket getting made at any given time over the decade that would make rock and rollers shrivel into their Cuban heeled boots.

yes true but VU and krayola still sound like kids doing it, for lack of a better term. not that the approach is a bad or inferior thing at all, just hits in the opposite way when its a 40 year old knowingly months away from death vs. young genius musicians debuting with bursts of inspiration and creativity. party music vs death music

like artists starting out as young and wild and later getting more refined vs. the reverse of artists that started out more normal or beautiful seeing total chaos as the logical path. both fascinating

True. Shoutout to our boys Ray and Frank for also rejecting flower power at its height (in their own dramatically different ways) even at the height of British Invasion Ray was writing songs like Where Have All The Good Times Gone cause he was already sick of this s***.

Waiting for 1988, 1993, 2002

how you like these?

pretty good album. no version of satsified mind really does too much for me though

"Wonder, could you ever know me
Know the reason why I live
Is there nothing you can show me
Life seems so little to give"

you should watch it out of respect for your region

same with Chinatown and Inherent Vice

great music all around

Looks like he was forced to film this 😭

when it gets to '65 s*** gets so much harder good footage too

jesus christ Keef looks like he barely made it out of the decade at 24:30

cant believe youre taking Spinetta over Richard Manuel @RVI

i cant decide which songs are the best off Big Pink but its crazy that its down to Tears/Released, both sung by Richard, or Station/Suzie which he wrote as well and stand just as tall as the Dylan songs what a goat

im not
