Title: 12 May 2014: it's... 1978
Post by: RGMike on May 11, 2014, 10:28:37 AM
The year of Animal House, sez AL on the promo I heard this morning.

Seems like I missed a pretty decent week, and I can't remember having 2 theme sets in a week for ages.

Sounding good to my years. This one hasn't appeared here much, if at all, so it gets a BOSFRA vote from me.

Hollywood nights, not so much.

I'm sure you young folk love this (Teenage Kicks) but this could be exhibit A for why some people shouldn't be allowed to have Les Pauls and Marshall amps!

I know.. :(   but it was in a (noisy) car, and I was playing the old mastered 'analog' CD. They re-mastered the entire CT catalog, which sounds much better.

I knowingly put on my old man hat for this.  I also guess it's because I'm in the guitar business, I have a sensitivity to wankers slashing power chords.  I've been assaulted countless hours in guitar stores, trade show booths, etc.  My cross to bear I guess.  Usually, but not always, it seems to cover up a lack of talent.

Stairway ...  Check

Well, "rock 'n' roll" does have a looong history of returning to the embrace of simpler forms
and a more raw sound.  From its emergence in the fifites, through the garage bands of the
sixties, the punk groups of the seventies, grunge in the ninties...
