Metal was awsome, then I turned 14.

like him or not the program was pretty cool

I am an 'Iron Butterfly'-'Led Zeppelin' man myself. Things became too soft and sissy-like after the mid 70s for me. Even Pete Townsend gave up destroying his Gibson and Fender Guitars on stage at one point, so I had to go 'underground' after that. Take notes Joe, you may be asked to testify one day about kwakers and his early 60s Vox MkVI teardrop guitar.

That was great, thanks for posting the link.

"Tosser". Now there's a term I haven't heard since I lived in England.

The taming down of music in the 70s, and the advent of disco, was why I got into punk rock back in the day.

I didnt realise us diecast folk where so MACHO....I like a little light operetta myself like THE DESERT SONG and Hendrix....
