Hate to be a sexist but I never could get over the fact that Joan was claiming to be a dude named Virgil Kane.

Too fast. Plus she admits to being from the Isles of Lesbo.

And then there was this guy who said he was an old woman named after her mother.

He sounds so funny with that young man voice. He was always an old soul.

I always play this song when I catch myself on the wrong end of a broom.

Just stumbled on this.

If anyone complains about this, just remember I could have posted "Ruby."

I remember a blues/rocker cover, but I can't remember who it was. These guys take it sideways.

This is like, prog rock to the nth degree.

Bon Scott was a major bad-ass and his death was a loss to both rock and roll.

I only saw them once. At the Tuck in Tallahassee during the for those about to rock tour. So loud you had a two day head ache.

I am so jealous.

I'm posting this in honor of myself having just passed my 60th birthday Cal DMV test. I'm good to drive for a few more years!

Congrats. I just turned 58 a month or so back. Getting old is a trip.

I'm not sure, but I think in Florida they don't start with the old folks test until well into the 70's. But then we are the retirement capital of the world.

I only saw the Brothers once. In Dothan Al. It was 1979-80, the Cher years, and the show just didn't have the fire like it should have. About 1981-82 I saw the Gregg Allman Band in or near Norfolk Va. Small club and a great show. I've looked all over YT and can't find any video of the rig he was playing that night. There was a turning horn type thing mounted on the piano.

This is from the same time frame.

It does not get much more '70s than this.

A Leslie speaker, I believe.

I can't believe I found this video. They were even playing this tune on AM radio in Texas when I was a budding juvenile delinquent.

I can't believe these guys dont get more credit.They have influenced so many.I've only scratched the surface of their work,but they are partly responsible for one of my favorite bands.Here's one of KC I really like

I'll spare you the 32 minute 'Cassandra Gemini' track off of this album Frances the Mute.But definitely give it a listen.You can hear some similarities in a lot of Mars songs.Their songs are a bit of a journey
This one is a little more straight forward lol
