[QUOTE=pigonthewing82]God wouldn't the whole thing be so much easier just to have put on one cd instead of putting out three different versions of the same show?[/QUOTE]

Well when they released it in 1971 as an LP, they only had room for the 6 songs they put on there. Someone eventually went back and got the 14, then that new company that has Deluxe Versions of all these albums came along and added the Tommy disc.

This thread has to stop dying

Random Who Fact: The Who performed Woodstock but reportably hated it. Entwistle quoted "Probably the worst ever festival experience we ever had."

Everyone always says how bad their performance was, but I've never seen it.

Did they do the bluesy one?

Yeah I heard that the Dead were suppose to play, but Jerry kept getting shocked from his guitar and the rain, and he said somthing like that, though he also said he still had fun though. I forget where I heard it so I may be wrong but meh.

You should see the Beatles page, before I bumped it, it was on page 4 or 5.

The footage from the Woodstock dvd wasn't bad, though I suppose they would't show the bad parts.

thats because almost nobody except some classic rock regulars can respect the beatles. bands like Zep, Floyd, or metallica can get some credit for being in more progressive or harder rock, but most people think of the beatles as nothing but gay love songs, when they have so many better unknown ones latter in their carrer.

Eh, whatever. Im outta here. We'll have to do one of those Chats again soon. This place seems to be getting duller every time i visit...or maybe its just me

The bad parts would be the most fun to see. lol

Yea, Bob Weir also said they were completely tripping during the performance.

Not to change the subject but who here has heard the Mc5 live cd Kick Out The Jams. You know that cd must have been really influencial to some because lots of people do covers of Kick Out The Jams, and open with saying "kick out the jams mother [COLOR=White]f[/COLOR]uckers" (well when BOC does it they say brothers and sisters, but that was before the uncensored one). I've heard a couple local bands doing that, and the most famous cover of it today is probally RATM'S cover of it.

its an extremely influencial album. the opening line has definitely been integrated into rock vernacular. badmoon may get angry because APPARENTLY it sounded like i was disrespecting them in some other thread. cant quite recall which though. stupid memory. temporal lobes! anyway, yes, kick out the jams is one of the best live albums i own. the energy that comes out of the recording is awesome.

Yeah thats actually the only MC5 I own, its really good though. Motor City is Burning is my favorite song on the cd. Wasn't like the lead singers brother the head of a really radical extreame hippie group that would blow up army recruiting buildings (though at a time when nobody would get hurt).

[QUOTE]it sounded like i was disrespecting them in some other thread.[/QUOTE]

I recall is seeming as a dis, but let's put it be us. :)

[I]Kick out the Jams[/I] is a fantastic album. Rob Tyner was a machine. I wish they would release a DVD of them from back then, with the original members.

The MC5's mentor was the radical John Sinclair (Listen to the John Lennon song "John Sinclair"). He was a real crazy guy; he was the main cause for the riots during the Democratic Convention is Chicago. He did a bunch of crazy stuff. Sorry I can't tell you all of it.

:)

I see Badmoon double postin'.


(sung to the tune of Bad Moon Rising, the part where he says "I see rivers overflowin..")

I see, yea I've just been getting into MC5 but they are really interesting, and a great band. Its too band so few people know who they are. Though I heard they are doing or did a recent tour.

My friend wants to start a Reggae-American Roots band with me. We both really like the sound the Grateful Dead have on "Catfish John", and we'd like to make our own, but similar.

Anyone know any songs similar to "Catfish John".

i thought they had some sort of affiliation with the white panthers. i too wish they had a dvd of the original line up. those afros! they were monsters.

I believe they were the house band for the White Panther party.

So.....[I]Forever Changes[/I] is a fantastic album.

NP: "You Set the Scene"

ch-ch-ch-ch-changes!
