Music thread for all you old hippies (vanity, oh yeah)
some former hippie

Posted on 03/16/2013 3:31:44 PM PDT by West Texas Chuck

Who among us used to be one of those long-haired flea-infested dope-smoking denizens of the rock concert world?

Guilty. And recovered.

Post up some old tunes for a Saturday night.

The road to recovery is littered with shattered souls, some living , some dead.

One of my all time favorites ... not a bad cut on it. Arthur Lee was great.

I got a few dead pals who went just a few steps too many down that Highway to Hell.

The Scorsese documentary of The Band, The Last Waltz, raised the bar for concert documentaries through the roof. Unlike most, it is a good movie even if you never heard of The Band before.

Animals - House Of The Rising Sun 1964

The White Buffalo - The House of The Rising Sun (Sons of Anarchy Version)

Both are brilliant. Heck the Animals could probably read music.

Yeah, I'm the Brasilian music guy. Doesn't mean I don't love the genius of the classics, I just can't find comparable today.

Cheers!

Oh mang, I ain't heared that in at least 30 years. My only recourse at this point, is A Classic. Chew on that for 17 minutes and 6 seconds.

Kind of wrong, I do like Slipknot (perhaps we should re-read the zombie threat from earlier)

One of the first tunes that I recall having a vaguely pre-psychedelic sound:

I was an oddball hippie, always very Conservative. Learned to play (sort of) lap steel one day, and played this tune at the first Milwaukee “Be In.” We were the big hit of the show!
