Q: Are We Not Men?

#Devo #arewenotmen #70smusic #altrock #70srock #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky Q: Are We Not Men? A: We Are Devo! The line and the band's name are based on a satirical and pessimistic theory of human society called "de-evolution". The band's concept of "de-evolution" posits that, contrary to the idea of human progress, mankind is actually regressing. Based on the last few years, I'd say they knew what the hell they were talking about.

It's driven heavily by John Paul Jones' synthesizers and keyboards and the album sounds like a shift away from the heavy blues stuff to more of a prog rock, synth sound. Paige, Plant and Bonham have their…

Every Good Boy Deserves Favour

#themoodyblues #everygoodboydeservesfavour #70smusic #70srock #progrock #classicrock #rock #rockmusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky The Moody Blues release my fav ... July 23, 1971. For me, it's the key of their "core seven" album run, reaching #1 on the UK albums chart and #2 on the US Billboard 200. Music students got the title to that album right away -- it's the tuneage mnemonic used to remember notes on the treble clef lines:…

The Idiot

Released on March 18, 1977, The Idiot is the debut solo album by Iggy Pop. It was produced and largely co-written by David Bowie and, as Iggy called it ... "a cross between James Brown and Kraftwerk." The album is hailed as a foundational blueprint for post-punk, industrial, and gothic rock. It was the album playing on Joy Division singer Ian Curtis's turntable the night he died. #iggypop #theidiot #70srock #rockmusic #70smusic #music #musicsky #musiciansky…

Who saves their stubs?

40 years and about 90 bucks apart. Staggering to me that I ever paid $9.50 for a show, no matter what year it was.
