ITT: /mu/ in 1967
I'm incredibly gay and like The Beatles. That's pretty much all I had to say
>>130034096It's no longer gay to like The Beatles
Anybody wanna join me at the Summer of Love?
dude acid XD
>>130034130Sorry man, I actually value my appearance, personal hygiene and mental health.
When's the next acid test?
>George Harrison later travels to Haight-Ashbury to see what all the fuss is about>finds nothing but dirty squalid junkies laying everywhere with no place to go
>>130034175>Anon shares information about his favorite boyband>Just comes across as incredibly autistic and gay
What did I tell you about these guys being nothing but dime store Beatles impersonators? If the Beatles came out with an album of nothing but armpit noises they'd have their own armpit noise album on shelves in three months.
>>130034182Why do you hate The Beatles so much?
>Writing about Hendrix's performance at Monterey, Christgau said "Grunting and groaning, on the brink of sham orgasm, he made his way through five or six almost indistinguishable songs, occasionally flicking an anteater tongue at the great crotch in the sky. He also played what everyone seems to call "heavy" guitar; in this case that means he was loud. He was loud with his teeth and behind his back and between his legs, and just in case anyone still remembered the Who, Hendrix had a capper. With his back to the audience, Hendrix humped the amplifier and jacked the guitar around his midsection, then turned and sat astride his instrument so that its neck extended like a third leg. For a few tender moments he caressed the strings. Then, in a sacrifice that couldn't have satisfied him more than it did me, he squirted it with lighter fluid from a can held near his crotch and set the cursed thing afire. The audience scrambled for the chunks he tossed into the front rows. He had tailored a caricature to their mythic standards and didn't overdo it a shade. The destructiveness of the Who is consistent theater, deriving directly from the group's defiant, lower-class stance. I suppose Hendrix's act can be understood as a consistently vulgar parody of rock theatrics, but I don't feel I have to like it. Anyway, he can't sing."
This is going to be THE jam of a lifetime!
F
BB at his best, when he roared like a lion. Too bad about the shitty 60s stereo use though.
>>130034236GOnna say something about the album?
>>130034093Think I'm taking an extended vacation to Canada for a while, folks. See ya.
>>130034166When the cops bust down your door, hippy scum.
>>130034245Dude, there's better ways to dodge the draft. Like shitting your pants
Though this came out at year's end and is more associated with 68.
>>130034236Crazy that Mr. Frog’s dad was in this band
>>130034093Lulu is hot.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v3FzvFhtJtQThe Everlys' last Billboard appearance.
>>130034175>George somehow expected to find anything else
And so it began.
>>130034293Oh hey! I've seen these guys back in 1966. Groovy shit man. There was this midget with them though, claimed he could fly.
>>130034300Can you not just spam album covers?
Wow you West Coast hippy acid pop tards are really fucking lame. I just peeled a banana on this new record and started a band.
>>130034319>>130034314
>>130034319Didn't Cuckgau say he was lame and you should just listen to BB instead?
What's with this weird country slop? When's he gonna go back to making protest songs?
>>130034337Who the fuck listens to what honkies have to say about the blues?
Kind of an underwhelming effort since it was recorded in LA, where she wasn't at home, instead of Nashville, where she was.
>>130034350I guess a lot since blacks are abandoning blues now for soul and it's being left to white hippies.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=25YxNSkLDB8
>>130034371What a bummer
I is born.
No introduction needed.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vI3fFV2qNhIBobby the reliable. Never says much, keeps cranking out the anonymous MOR hits.
>>130034329Where's Elvis when we need him?
>>130034429Why are you posting square music?
Fulfilling the promise Ruby Wright never lived up to.
>>130034445It could always be the Lettermen instead but fuck them.
Guys, is Paul dead?
>>130034521>caring if 60s Zayn is deadI sure hope you guys don't do this.
>>130034545What's your fucking problem man, getting real sick of your shit. Leave us alone
>>130034444His new stuff is just shitty soundtracks and it never gets airplay outside the South.
>>130034572Poor Otis dead and gone, left me here to sing his song
>SoftlyYou wanna try "Jackhammer" or "Air Horn" instead?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzDVaKRApcg
This is the point where the original lineup disbanded and the records are just Mark+the Wrecking Crew.
HEY HEY LBJ, HOW MANY KIDS DID YOU KILL TODAY?
Christgau hated this album for them selling out to standards glop.
>>130034705Bro, stop talking about her
>>130034705Fortunately she goes on an extended hiatus after this.
And so...
>>130034754Of course Graham Nash is carrying this band
What a load of fluff.
>>130034760Ah what do you know, square
>having to bury Nancy's shit vocals way back in the mix
>>130034705Should have covered The Wayward Wind ten years ago instead of now.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Y2C3ZTMwaekAnd that other Bobby character.
Aw come on, Jose, why you gotta do me like that?
>>130034345Come back, Bob. Please?

God did American critics hate this guy.
>>130034791Stop posting lame AM music, man. You're ruining the vibe
Also Christgau's other music nemesis.
John's Children just upstaged THE WHO in Germany?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GUhJw6pyFUcThe number one single of the entire year, not the Beatles/Stones/Doors/Byrds and anything else that appeared on a Rolling Stone Magazine list.
An entire _year_ for this?
>>130034894the buzz has it they were working on a completely different album but scrapped it
Not that country is really an "album" format.
Hey kiddo, wanna get in the van with us? We have free cookies and puppies in here.
>>130034705wow man, that chick's still around? i thought she was hot back in '53 when i was like 13.
Ha ha I totally hope some freadk in California with a hobo beard doesn't listen to this and claim there's subliminal messages calling for world revolution so he has to kill a bunch of people.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vHbRZwyik6wThe last anyone will be hearing from Roy in quite a while, as in 20 years.
>>130034943gee i hope nobody gets killed over a pop band for 10 year old girls
>>130034922No thanks.
>>130034982He didn't post The Monkees
More Don.
Still hanging in there.
tf does he make those sounds? this has gotta be some kind of studio trickery. nobody can do that on a guitar
>>130034954Roy was really screwed over by his label.
IT WAS 20 YEARS AGO TODAYSGT. PEPPER TAUGHT THE BAND TO PLAY
I can't believe this. Pete can't possibly do worse.
>>130035072Why do you have shit opinions, man? You're a real drag
>>130035047it's 1967's version of Backstreet Boys' "Bye Bye Bye"
>>130035092They didn't sing that song, you idiot
>>130035072This is Cuckgau's favorite rock album of all time but...meh.
>>130034093these Velvet Underground & Nico are kinda revolutionary ngl
there's this guy in the /mu/ in X year threads who always complains if you post a album cover without text or else music he personally doesn't like.>>130034314>>130034846this is him btw
>>130035407Why are you enabling this?
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J36z7AnhvOM
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ieM91LQqfII
I predict this is the best record this creep will ever release.
>>130035407I think the last one is RPing as a hippy from the 60s
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mzujCMrJXUg
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4NPAz8-O29U
>>130035072Meh, not as enjoyable as A Quick One.
>>130035746>>130035725>>130035674>>130035510Man, why are you posting these dinosaurs? Get hip
>>130035754>Man, why are you posting these dinosaurs?>Dionne Warwick>a has-been in '67Uh...
>>130034860So, SO many rock critics from the 70s, 80s and 90s held a deep grudge against the Doors. Jimbo was nerd repellant.
Syd Barrett seems like a cool guy, I hope he doesn't get kicked out of the band or go insane.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VCPbLIgnjc8The Shirelles' last charting song. Yeah they couldn't adapt to the rise of Motown.
Song always annoyed me.
>>130035774there's two kinds of nerds. one resents Chad, the other admires and imagines himself as Chad.
Time to get the hook and pull her off the stage already.
INCENSE PEPPERMINTS AND...
Yep yep yep.
far out, man
ONE PILL MAKES YOU LARGERAND ONE PILL MAKES YOU SMALLAND THE ONES THAT MOTHER GIVES YOUDON'T DO ANYTHING AT ALL
And you should have never started to begin with, Stevie.
Cute opening cover song.
>>130036015I could never figure out whose vocals are Michelle's and who's is the garden slug's.
>>130036015>Cass Elliot was pregnant during the recording of the album, which the title is an allusion to. The group kept her pregnancy a secret as it was out of wedlock at a time when that was still socially stigmatized.[7]
>>130034157Wow!
>>130036062>someone or something actually fucked that thing to be able to impregnate itJust let that slowly sink in and then cry to me for putting that thought in your head.
>>130034202A clear proof that christgau doesn't have always a clear pro black political stance or whatever that strawman of him retards around here love to autistically sperg babble about as the political pseuds they are
AND IF YOU SEE ANDMOREAGAIN THEN YOU MIGHT BEEE ANDMOREAGAIN!
These guys are pretty good, hopefully they don't break up in a year lolhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TpAPEbjJGtg
>>130036440Expecting To Fly is better
>>130035407Is that the same guy who also complains about Christgau reviews?
>>130036532Reasonable
Quite possibly the most uniquely eclectic band ever
Her second biggest US hit came out of this one.
>>130036818I prefer the Uk band of the same name
where it all began
>>130037139Ella must be admired for her persistence though a lot of the older generation of singers were increasingly being left by the wayside in the 60s, worse material and many simply chose to retire rather than cover Carole King or whatever songs.
>>130037172imagine when you could be the daughter of a Welsh coal miner and make it in music instead of a trust fund nepo babby
>>130037215shame, he had a decent voice in the early days before he trashed it with coke abuse
>>130037315Who wants to hear the lower classes?
And so
>>130037315>of a Welsh coal miner andAverage LE around 52. Awful existence.

>>130040864>Hey, hey we're the junkies!
this whole civil rights for colored folk movement is going to be the death of this nation, mark my words. I fear the dystopian hellscape our children and grandchildren will undoubtedly experience.
This album pisses me the fuck off.>waah im sad>waah my girl loves me and i love her>waah i have to grow up>waah im a successful artist and nobody understands meGrow the fuck up. Mike Love was right to hate on this shit. And of course the retards on here ate it right up.
How do you do fellow kids?
The Vietnam conflict is just & needed to stop the spread of communism to outer reaches of southeast Asia. For God sake think of the Philippines!
>>130043377Track 1 isn't as good as Sinatra but it's an ok enough cover.

>>1300341902000 Light Years From Home makes me fear Vietnam
>>130044093He doesn’t stand a chance in the primaries against Reagan
>>130044093nixon already ran for president 7 years ago and lost to kennedy, your LARP needs work.
>>130044786What the fuck is a LARP you communist? You young people are what's wrong with America

Everything this decade has just been white dudes doing worse r&b. Rock n roll should've never moved past Chuck Berry.
>>130046200t. Christgau
tfw when you want to start a band but your garage is full of junk
