Anyone can be confident with a full head of hair. But a confident bald man - there's your diamond in the rough

HBO On-Demand has 5 eps from season 2 of Curb (aka the best show still on TV) and I just can't stop thinking about how much I love Mr. David and his antics.

I don't know what's come over me, but I'm fairly certain that Black Flag is the only band I'm going to listen to for the next 3 months.

Got # 734 of 2000 copies (1/500 BLUE MARBLE) in the mail -- completely destroyed. Vinyl Collective sent me a second copy for free. Oddly enough, it was #735. Coincidence or crazy ass conspiracy? The world will never know.

Born At The Wrong Time

I convince myself that I know a lot about rock music and history, but anytime I discover (or re-discover, in this case) a band like Canned Heat, I realize the contrary. Its not the distorted blues riffs of the late 60's, its not the driving beats, the hair nor the beards that comprise the true essence of rock. Rather, its the reality, the understanding that the music was an experience and culmination of of a generation ready to break out of the Pop-oriented seams of the time. This performance by the classic psychedelic rock band Canned Heat portrays the true, unbridled rock & roll aesthetic that seems to have disappeared over the last forty or so years.

The sixties was a different, fresh time period for music, and while I pretend... WISH... that I truly understood all there is to know about good ol' rock 'n' roll, I find myself starting fresh any time I find a performance of this caliber. 

Enjoy.
