Not just @[sergio60] and the Count were keeping busy; it is said that in ancient times the Etruscans were no less creative in satisfying that obsession we all carry from birth...

Here, for example, is an Etruscan amphora from the 6th century B.C. It is now on display along with other repatriated art (almost exclusively Etruscan or Greek) in the Aula Ottagona of the Baths of Diocletian, which is now a exhibition space in the National Roman Museum in Rome and gnente... #chiaroscuro

Chicago - 25 or 6 to 4 - 7/21/1970 - Tanglewood (Official)

Chicago was an American rock band formed in Chicago in 1967.

In the beginning, they called themselves "The Big Thing" and later changed their name to "Chicago Transit Authority," which was subsequently shortened to "Chicago."

They defined themselves as a "rock and roll band with horns."

They started as a politically engaged and sometimes experimental rock band, later also exploring progressive rock and jazz rock.

In the '70s, Chicago were absolute leaders in the States for single sales, with over 40,000,000 copies sold in the USA alone, earning them 23 gold records, 18 platinum, and 8 double platinum.

Interestingly, they were also invited to the Woodstock festival. They accepted, and the band was scheduled to perform, but that scoundrel of their promoter, Bill Graham, canceled their participation to let Santana, whom he managed, play in their place.

THE 13TH FLOOR ELEVATORS Your Gonna Miss Me - Subtítulos

The Essential Albums: “THE PSYCHEDELIC SOUND of The 13Th Floor Elevators” and

“… it’s a paranoid and essentially perverse record… the music of the Elevators is breathless, claustrophobic, and oppressive. As if the doors of that elevator never really opened. suffocating like a cotton ball soaked in paraffin stuffed down your throat. No one smiles in the hallways of the thirteenth floor but it’s in the belly of this skyscraper in Austin that the elevator flows, bringing up the most insane and delirious psychedelic music of the sixties.”

Oh I, Rev, I also find it amusing, it’s more exhilarating than oppressive… these are personal feelings, savansadir.

More than the word (the album comes out simultaneously with Psychedelic Lollipop, just to say), in my opinion, it’s really the sound… what it should mean to be psychedelic. A word abused recklessly like few others. I can’t define it, let alone… for me it’s not a genre but an aura that assimilates with other sounds, giving particular “effects” both to the sound and to the listener.

This is the ALBUM… like few others.
Garage-Beat-R&B and Psychedelia… Psychedelia and Melody perfectly blended. Not some guitar effect or a computer left on randomly for 5 minutes… that’s crap, not Psychedelia.

Well… one of the 10, 5, 3 garage-psycho-beat anthems… you figure it out.

Reigning Sound - Is It True - 2009

In addition to Mick Collins, another beautiful bastard devil-wizard of the genre is Greg - Oblivians - Cartwright. Legendary with the Oblivians, immense with the Compulsive Gamblers, and superb with this other magnificent creature of his.

With Too Much Guitar, you say to yourself, "okay, he made the masterpiece album with his Reigning Sound," and instead, this cursed bastard does what?! He lets a few years pass and then drops a wonderful album, a "moody & melancholic" side - his words - of the Oblivians sound. You can't define it... it takes you back to adolescence with sounds full of sixties moods, R&B, soul, but also infused with that traditional American sound… And with that bastard voice, flirtatious… in spite of the 17 octaves of the "great singer" whose opinion I couldn't care less about… that animates this splendid bastard…

AlbumONE… if you haven't figured it out yet… But the beauty is that this guy who makes an album like this, mixing bitols, van morrison, arthur lee, graham parker, and even bob dylan… after having been one of the craziest iconoclasts of "Classic" Rock… you say he has no class, talent, nobility?! Naaaaaaaaaaa

Demolition Doll Rods - Hey You [TV Live] (1/3)
But from Michigan, especially from Detroit, is there anyone who sucks??!! Naaaaiiinnn!!! Another great band with that lovable delinquent Dan Groha (Gories) accompanied by two terribly Ruock sisters. Garage-glam-punk… the usual second course that satisfies you while leaving you feeling light, savansadir.
I went looking for something written about the beginnings of the DDR and found more than I was looking for. In particular, a beautiful article by one Paolo Barone (who the hell knows who that is, savansadir) after seeing them with the Cramps, yes those Cramps at Fillmore West, yes that Fillmore West on Tim Tirelli's site, one of the most crazily obsessed music lovers out there… a junkie for every possible genre. One who, in the mid-eighties, just over twenty, wrote Oh Jimmy, a real compendium on the Zepp (along with a cool homonymous piece), a true chronic addict… and indeed he is nobly exhausted. Then there’s an engaging “Ultima Thule.” a wonderful review by Federico Guglielmi, which begins, "it's useless to deny it: it's groups like the Demolition Doll Rods - two wild sisters with their boobs out, an ex Gories guy dressed like a low-life drag queen - who today take on the difficult task of being the custodians of the unquenchable fire of rock’n’roll. At least of that rock’n’roll….”
It continues splendidly … but you get the idea …
