I remember the following and other similar bits throughout the late 60s/early 70s on Laugh-In, but was a young kid and never had any idea what the genesis was.

My all-time favorite band, Skinny Puppy, announced a “Final Tour” this morning. They’ve been paving the way for industrial music for the past 40 years and have decided to finally call it quits.
Part of me is sad because they’re the band who have had the largest influence on my musical tastes since the mid-80’s. The other part of me is incredibly grateful I’ll get to see them one last time (my 6th).
They put on easily the best live show I’ve ever seen.

Pretty fascinating. It really was the first ever rap record, a full decade before others that are often recognized as such.

I heard this song on the sound system at Home Depot yesterday, and remember loving it in the early 70’s when it was first recorded, but could not recall that it was Loggins and Messina. It seems they didn’t do much else of note; I never owned any of their recordings and only remember one other song.
This, however is a very catchy, old style, rock and roll tune, with some pretty good Chuck Berry-esque guitar, nice piano and sax, and a fun lyric. Been walking around with it stuck in my head ever since.

I love both Cortez the Killer and Don’t let it get you down.
When he last came to Utah at Usana, he played Down by the River which lasted probably 15 or 20 minutes.

Lukas Nelson is Willie’s son & is the singer for POTR. His voice sounds almost exactly like Willie’s but their sound is more classic rock than country.
For several years they would play on Labor Day weekend at Snowbasin. They are a great band.

I think this is fantastic. I had never heard them sing it with Andy Williams before today.

This was a great song written by Adam Schlesinger of Fountains of Wayne. I know he’s a Grammy winner among other accolades. He died of COVID in 2020 but left a string of great songs behind. I always thought this song in particular was really cool and very well written.

A unique album - who else, ever, in their heyday, released a live album of covers? They’re all great, but the only one that even then, anybody was familiar with was Barbara Ann. Every tune showcases one of the primary Beach Boys calling cards - their vocal harmonies.
