My version (first pressing) of Surfing With The Alien is a verygood sounding vinyl.

Back when instruments didn't mask the singing, but accompanied it...http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AO073fekFfA

It was my son that introduced me to Joe Sartriani...and boy can he play a guitar.
and one of the best vocal songs I have ever heard the emotion is awesmome...Joe Cocker!!!! yes he was probably as high as a kite but Justin Bieber look at real talent and listen to the Hammond B3 organ.

As for Warhol, yeah the soup can thing sucked as he partied his way to the bank. My mid-sixties " Electric Salvation Jug Band Army" auditioned for him to play at his club, the" Exploding Plastic Inevitble". Our sound was even too wierd for him, but he took a movie of us playing to project on the walls of the club.
Then there was the time at the Cafe Wha? in Grenwich Village (early sixties) when after hanging out with the Chambers Brothers at their hotel (my friend Richie's sister was dating Willie) , we went down to the Wha ? where Willie stepped up to the mike, said : " There were times when we were so poor that sitting around the dinner table our Mother sadly said there's no food tonight...." So we would Sing - and opened with a version of "People Get Ready" that f'ing wrenched every gut in the place.
Next on the bill was the Paul Butterfield Blues Band - Paul, Michael Bloomfield, Elvin Bishop, and Sam Lay. Blew the doors off, even impressing a certain Mr. Zimmerman who sat down next to me (I quit trembling after a while).

Tony, you are correct the sixties were where some of the best modern music was formed.....Lady Honk and the wee twit from Canada....I think his first name is Justin should listen to some of the great bands of that time, and not the American Idol idiots and other single singers that are the modern idiom of crappy music that they can download for free.

I'm really enjoying this thread (in the midst of setting up seven boats for WWVIII coming up in two weeks
) It's so nice to connect with those who have love of music in their hearts.
I'm with Douggie in that there's so much garbage on the airwaves. And then there's music that makes you smile, set yer toes a-tappin', and some that display a deep respect for the craft by serious songwriters, players and arrangers.
Not to get too "political" (which I'll do if needed), here's a song collaborated on by two respected songwriters, Radney Foster and Darden Smith which I've previously posted some time ago that displays the enormous serious emotional impact that music can elicit. Perfectly crafted, beautifully delivered with accompanying video. Let it play through ( it's long, just hang with it) and take a moment.....

That was an amazing powerful bit of Reality Filming, thanks. When fallen heros come home to rest, the Patriot Guard Riders see that the idiots don't disrupt the service.
I've ridden on one in my hometown, very moving.
An example of what I mean : (don't even try to count the PGR's bikes !)

Well I had to post a band from my home town...GLASGOW...Battlefield Band and as good wine they age very well. I have seen them live many times and my son who is a Canadian got up at the very tender age of 7 years old and danced in his seat at a live performance, he is now 37 years old.

You have to go Cape Breton (Nova Scotia) and hear the talent that is there and often played in a home or a bar
