Rock groups swept into the bin of history.

Humble Pie and Black Oak Arkansas, notable only because I saw them on the same day. Pretty sure Frampton was with HP then, but I don't remember anything about them.
 
Back in the day and once upon a time the Traffic got so heavy that Stevie got lost. He wandered for a while before running into some friends that helped him find his way home.


But alas, after having been given detailed directions he ran into a chum that showed him an alternative reality.

Later in life he'd throw off the shackles and dance with one hand free.

Sam The Sham & The Pharaohs

I remember my grandpa half singing Wooly Bully while hunting in 1967, like he expected the moose to just come to him.
 
Everyone, well almost, knows Neil Young. But you can draw a direct line from Neil then to Neil now.

Stop!

So how many you know of the younger generation could tell you who wrote it or when it was originally recorded?

Ishmael

Well, if they're anything like me (even if I'm older) : not many.

I liked the song and the verses, yet I had no idea or interest in who wrote that song. Until I read a movie review that commented on it.
 
These guys couldn't decide whether they were Country, rock, Folk Rock or what?

The Dirt Band is still around.

The Belmonts w/Dion\

The last time I saw Dion he was sitting under a tree in Bay Front Park The music mill had ground him down to the point that he barely knew who he was anymore.

Clapton. Everyone knows Clapton Started in the Yardbirds and went from there. He was a member of two groups that were one album wonders.

Blind Faith
(Yeah, you heard it earlier. So who wrote it? (No google allowed.))
And

Derek and the Dominoes

Oh shit!!! Quick Silver Messenger Service. Obviously named after a delivery business in New York city.

They finally hit the Top 100 after getting out of LA and getting a little Fresh Air to clear their heads.

But they had to get back to the studio and back on the streets. But they managed to pick up on the local color. Personally I think they should have stayed in town and picked up a little more Local Color.

It's like amateur audition night for the open host slot on American Blandstand.

lol eyer…

One thing's for sure: he doesn't discriminate. Libs. or conservatives, 'Cool kids' or the 'Outcasts',
he porks them all the same. ;)
 
This dude isn't a group, just another in the parade of those that came and went on the pop charts.

For nearly ten years I spent my time flying between Orlando and Detroit. A couple of times a year I was on the floor pitching my company at Cobo Center. From time to time I had to get out of there to get away from too many people asking questions in an attempt to appear oh so clever.

About the second day of the first trip in Cobo I walked past the fist of Joe Louis (which seems to be a shrine in downtown Detroit) to a little church on the river. Reading the names and dates on the plagues puts life in perspective. The Mariners Church.

He's just another Penis Gazer. One of those people you'd never invite to a party. Probably be good at a wake though.

Maybe some day you'll have a plague.
Nobody on this board deserves a plague more than you.
