One of those 80s songs that has stood the test of time, along with "Our House" by Madness - which, while both bad and good, has been embedded in our minds because it was a product of its time.

Speaking of period pieces, I still hate "We Built This City" by Starship. I have to listen to Cannibal Corpse to get that piece out of my head.

I have to admit that the Cookie Monster could do some really good cover vocals in place of either Chris Barnes or George "Corpsegrinder" Fisher.

Crossed my mind a few minutes ago. Ever since I heard this 40 years ago, it has ALWAYS made a huge impression on me - especially if it's done by Ton Koopman or Trevor Pinnock.

Went to a little Mac & Cheese festival today. They had a cover band playing. They were pretty solid. Classic and modern rock and country hits. Pretty standard stuff for the most part. Then they broke out Atlantic City by The Band. Man, that's a great jam.

Testament, Exodus and Death Angel coming to Buffalo Oct 28th. That's one old school metal show at its finest.

Too bad they suck. Can't stand those guys still milking off Curt Cobains teat just like Courtney Love. David Grohl sucks on his own. Just keep.screaming man. He's a mediocre guitar player at best. Sooooo overrated.

Yeah and they have what, eight guitar players ? I don’t disagree with you and disco ain’t my thing. Thought it was interesting considering where Grohl and Pat Smear came from.

I think Grohl himself would tell you he’s an average guitar player.

I‘ve never thought of him as a guitar player, anyway. Same with Bruce. They are singer songwriters who play guitar, and are all about the show. I’m not particularly a fan of either, but they are really good at what they do.

Bruce as in Bruce Springsteen? Yeah, I don't think he can hold a candle to Andrés Segovia.

How the hell did I get to 51 years of age and only now stumble onto Funkadelic?  My 24 year old turned me on to it!

Don't sweat the 51 years.  Thank your lucky stars for your 24-year old.  The mothership has been here far longer than we have!

Here is Eddie Hazel at his finest...

I'm thinking Roger Waters and David Gilmour tripped out to this before recording Dark Side.

The timing is right for Pink Floyd to hear this pre-Dark Side, but there was no tripping involved.  The original Pink Floyd line-up of Syd Barrett, Roger Waters, Rick Wright and Nick Mason was an astoundingly heavy psychedelic drug consuming entity, but it was due 100% to the intake of Syd Barrett alone.  Syd was basically taking acid/LSD every single day, in large quantities, among other things.  Everyone else in Pink Floyd, including David Gilmour, who replaced Syd, never had any use whatsoever for any kind of drugs.  I read Roger tried pot once (back when it was 5% as strong as it is now), and had an anxiety attack.  Stoners love Pink Floyd, but Pink Floyd were never stoners, not even remotely.

Here is one of my favorite Syd songs...

I'm well aware.  But it was primarily Barrett that was heavy into drugs.  The rest experimented a bit but mostly stuck to pot.
