You're not alone, Jack. I'm 55 and listen to just about every genre there is. I can easily go from PF to country swing to chick with guitar to opera and back all in one session. ;-) I like what I like and make no apologies for it. |
Who gives a shit if they were "stoners in the studio"? So were the Beatles. And both bands were divine.
You think Cream would've been half as good without chemical additives? I doubt it.
Dan_ed, are you trying to say you wouldn't listen to a band or don't like a band merely because they used LSD or pot or who-knows-what? Or that the music must not be good because it was drug-influenced? I don't get your point. |
I hear you Achilles, couldn't agree more. Good music is good music, simple as that! |
It's fairly well known that many jazz and blues musicians of the 30's, 40's, and 50's smoked a little reefer.
Of course all of that illegal activity ended by the 60's. |

Admittedly they could take themselves too seriously at times but they produced some very interesting music as well. |
Oh, Achilles. If you knew me you'd realize how far off the mark you are. :-) I'm going on 55 and my hair is STILL well below my shoulders. Get the picture? I'm wondering what the hell happened to the rest of you guys. |
Hair below shoulders.... sure, back hair. And I still wear 70's style sideburns.... combed forward ear hair. (best I can do pre-coffee) |
Apparently the rock stars are aging much better than their fans...... |
Hehehe...Dan_ed, in response to your question -- dihydrotestosterone and genetics - LOL :-)

Certainly the number of "procedures" currently available to these folks accounts for this.
Coming this summer, the Plastic Surgery 2011 Depends For All Ages tour starring:
Botoxicats
Nip Tuck and the Cuts
Augmentia
Lipo and the Suctions |
My poor little brother got the gene from the other side of the family. Pretty much lost all of his hair in his thirties. :-)
Most of what I listen to could be considered stoner in the studio music. Most everything was back then. There is a huge amount of great music nonetheless. Didn't Mozart write totally bombed at times? Mebbe I saw that in a movie. Anyway, I do believe that the more things change the more they stay the same. |

Add Aerosmith to that list LOL |
I always thought the Lipos sucked, but they're a great band! |
But Paul McCartney just looks that way naturally, so don't toss him in with the rest of those guys. |
Download the 1970 Fillmore West show from Wolfy's Vault.
It's all anyone needs to "experience" via P.F. |
