When Rock was Real! I’m so glad that I got my musical education during the 60’s and 70’s
@deaddocreallydeaddoc5244Ай бұрын
I gave your comment a thumbs up. I'm a Boomer, too (1952). The truth is, I'm not really sure how much this song or a lot of music that our generation produced can be called "Rock." At least not in the real sense. This piece of music would do fine without any drums. But what's rock and roll without a beat? The 50s was when rock was real. We muddied it up quite a bit. But that's okay, too. The stuff that came out of that was great.

@@deaddocreallydeaddoc5244As most people already know, “Rock” evolved from Rock and Roll, which was heavily influenced by Blues, as well as some elements of Rockabilly, and Country Swing, but music doesn’t always fit into categories. Acid rock, psychedelic rock, southern rock, country rock…..lots of intermixing. The crap of today hardly compares.

Agreed Pete. They played all 4 years at Stony Brook (70-74) when I was there with the first and last years being acoustic. Then seeing them at the Academy of Music around Thanksgiving most years, along with summer shows at the Sunshine Inn (Asbury Park), Gaelic Park, etc.

I remember being at this show. It was overcrowded due to the fact that it became a free show. The drugs flowed freely and the concert was spectacular, as the venue was just a local movie theater in Borough Park on New Utrecht Ave.

First concert I ever went to see: Hot Tuna at the Holiwood Paladium in the mid-70s. Joe Walsh and ELO were the two warm-up acts.

Those were the days my friend , I thought they would never end, and the sad truth... nothing stays the same for very long!! The 70's Music I witnessed first hand every friday or saturady at Winterland... Thank you Bill Graham!!
