REG got a lot better otherwise you got me.
Dylan/Bee Gees, say waaa?????
He produced solo albums for Paul, George and Ringo and also the traveling Willburies.
Are you talking about his vocal range?
Live comeback tour of 2001
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZBNuPxPtREM
Impeccable timing and harmonizing for a live performance. He could still hit the notes but didn’t put a lot of power into his vocals. 53 years old, in a relationship with his younger main backup singer and it was a long set. I don’t care for the Jeff Lynn Country sound though.
I was thinking about some of the ELO songs, where Jeff would sing like Dylan, or even sound like Barry Gibb, Jeff is a huge fan of Bee Gees, and certainly paid homage to them.
I also have a favorite rune. :)
I did a lot acid forty years ago. Never had a flashback. Don’t know how it’s even possible.
>Always wondered about that myself, but I knew people who told me they had, especially those who were into the early Owsley stuff that was really unadulterated, and usually did lots of it. Others said not once.
I was a bit on the late side, never saw any of that, also I grew up in Louisiana where not much made it to us in the first place. Had a couple of friends from out of state and later on in the military...scary thought that...
Knew people who had stories about the west coast Orange Sunshine, Purple Haze, Mr Natural, Blue Cheer, Purple Microdot I can’t remember what else. Only a couple related stories about flashbacks.
What made me really wary of a lot of it was a friend in 12th grade. He went to the dentist to have a tooth worked on, then told me he shot some pink speed. (meth) Did it in the gums and was walking down the hall, and had already told me about his little friend about 2 inches tall he saw when tripping. We were walking down the hall when this guy freaked out because his friend had suddenly appeared on a door knob and jumped off.
I’m looking around wondering if this guy is totally around the bend or what, he’s really serious, he just watched this little 2 inch tall imaginary man jump off a door knob...
Here’s what’s really strange. He knew this little guy was imaginary, and said so, and still freaked out because he jumped off a door knob...
For a long time pot was the only thing I would touch...I still don’t even like to take an aspirin...not because of that, just don’t like eating chemicals.
Don’t know if he ever had any flashbacks, he never said. We parted company when I got out of school and moved out of Louisiana. Knowing how much he was into anything and everything, I would almost bet he ended up a casualty of the 60s...First person I ever knew who had done acid, I think he was maybe 17...He was one of those who would take it then ask what it was...and usually it was “gimme two”...
it might come to that
LOL! Me too. Actually - I’m a big fan of headlamps. I help out an older lady and she gets a kick out of my headlamp!
I’m guessing that the flashlight = nerd = RUSH?
“Each time we bathe our reactions
In artificial light
Each time we alter the focus
To make the wrong moves seem right”

Back in 1994. 20+ years as a band. Only 20+ more to go. ;(
Heh. Father’s day present from my wife. A flashlight.
She did go to one RUSH concert with me. My kids went with me to the others.
My wife also went to a YES concert with me too.
YES, fom 1991. Perhaps not as good as the earlier stuff - but was able to hear them live!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FsPlGBXqgGI
Funny. For our wedding I gave the DJ a bunch of YES and ELP albums to play. He didn’t use any of them! Five years later I was glad that he didn’t! (Even then I knew that RUSH wasn’t wedding material. Although it is the music of my life.)
ELP:

Went to see them for their Black Moon concert. I had loved them as a teen. I went to a small concert hall (the size of a school auditorium. Three sections, maybe 500 people total). I figured I might snag a ticket to a sold-out show. I was sitting for an hour before-hand. At the last minute a group came in - with an extra ticket of a friend that didn’t show.
It took them perhaps an hour to get things sorted out. They came on stage at the small venue - two notes in and circuits blew! It was a couple of blocks of the small city!
It took one or two times for them (and the town!) to get things figured out. They put on a great show! Was SO GLAD that I went. (Alone).
I had just got out of surgery a few days previous, and felt like crap. But figured it would be my only chance to see Emerson...Lake.... and Palmer. It was an amazing show!!
RIP Greg. RIP Keith.
