Greetings,
In the latest issue of Perfect Sound Forever <[link]>, you'll find (among other things):
KEITH RELF
The Yardbirds' Voice- a tribute by Sam Leighty
"Arguably, Keith's harmonica and singing were as important to the sixties Yardbirds sound as were the lead guitars of Clapton, Beck and Page. Of course, a dominant lead guitar was important to their sound. you'll notice in most of the old clips and old tapes of the band they are careful not to crowd the lead guitar too much on solos and fills.

Greetings,
In the latest issue of Perfect Sound Forever <[link]>, you'll find (among other things):
BEATLES/RESIDENTS/LAIBACH Letting It Be Without Love?, by Kurt Gottshalk "Let it Be persists as the archetype of sticking around too long, of rock indulgence... Musicians were asking 'If love is dead, what's left in its place?' If the Beatles were posterboys of love, there was an even clearer personification of hate, one that six years after the release of Let it Be, an art project disguised as a rock band called 'The Residents' chose to put on the cover of a mutant tribute to pop music."... more »

Confess, you dog! I know of one guilty pleasure you hide in
the
deepest part of your right brain: Every time you hear that song, it
transports you to that particular summer.
I was a lad, all of 13. My dad was attempting to euhemerize
the
“flower power” movement. He loved to carp about anything. The... more »
