"Don't worry boy, life'll be sweet someday."  BOS3 to one of my favorite Freak anthems, "We Ain't Got Nothin' Yet."  I bet Mike gives it BOS too.  Garage rock at its finest and most prototypical.

HM to Cream.  That Jack Bruce was a looker in the day, not much of a lyricist though.  But he's glad, he's glad, he's glad, and he feels free.


If you want top see what he looks like now, just be at the Royal ALbert Hall in May.

I'm more interested in seeing what Andrea True looks like now, per RGMike's comments on Deep Throat.

8 Miles High
« Reply #23 on: February 22, 2005, 08:32:10 AM »
question for you older folks who might remember:  When people first heard McGuinn's guitars on this song, had they ever heard anything like it before?  This predates anything heard by the masses from Hendrix or the Airplane, who else might have come had a similar sound by this point (April '66)?

TEN @ 10 LOG FOR 02.22.05

1966

 1.  The Beach Boys  -  Sloop John B
 2.  Lou Christie  -  Lightning Strikes
 3.  The Kinks  -  Til the End of the Day
  4.  Wilson Pickett  -  Land of 1,000 Dances
 5.  The Lovin' Spoonful  -  Summer in the City
  6.  Cream  -  I Feel Free
  7.  The Blues Magoos  -  We Ain't Got Nothin' Yet
  8.  The Isley Brothers  -  This Old Heart of Mine
  9.  ? & Mysterians  -  96 Tears
10.  The Byrds  -  8 Miles High


Actually, The Byrds would have been BOS4 behind Summer in the City, I Feel Free, and Sloop John B.

And in regards to Marks earlier comment about guitar styles, see the Grateful Dead's first album, the guitar crescendo on "Viola Lee Blues"

but that was released 11 months later.  You may well have heard it before April of '66, but not many others did.

Reason I am asking is that it is always a challenge for me to recreate the chronologies of Pop Culture things like this that happened before my time & which were not usually documented with unnerring accuracy.
