I get it. Speaking of CCR, I do love John Fogerty’s memory of Woodstock as an aside. They were the biggest band in the world and got pushed by delays to playing to a zonked-out ocean of sleeping mud people in the middle of the night. In the middle of the set, Fogerty asked whether anyone was awake. Some guy out in the vast sea of people flicked his lighter and said something like “I’m with you John”, so CCR played the rest Of the set for that guy
That's a bit of a tall tale from John. Their Woodstock set came out recently and it kicks ass. Plenty of people were awake. You ever try to go to sleep on acid?
speaking of stories from rock legends.. I read a book about the Memphis Mafia. apparently the Beatles were obsessed with Elvis and had to meet him. So when Elvis hosted them, they apparently were in awe and basically just stared at him... so he broke the ice and said "are we gonna jam or what"
so the Elvis and Beatles had an impromptu jam session … and no one recorded it. can you imagine what that tape would be worth today??
Beatles had a few wonderfully raw rock and roll songs. But the vast majority of their stuff was simply masturbatory, as they actually did think they were bigger than god.
Apparently, they were able to ejaculate incredible music. Pretty impressive.
That may be the worst song in music ever.
The Beatles broke the ice so when Led Zeppelin got to meet him it was good times. He probably showed Bonzo his cars and guns.
The Beatles were songwriting and producing geniuses. I don't know too much about how good they could be live.
Damn, it came out? I know John ordered their performance to be taken out of the movie because he thought they played subpar. That’s good to hear.
Still a few whoa- a - whoa - eeeeeee - ah's in there, still isn't in Diana Ross's league.
This is a great pod, check it. “Beautiful” story told

My choice as well. I change the station every time one of their songs starts to play. I can’t say that I know all of their songs, but there is an annoyance that is unmistakable.
Do you dislike all Chicago or just one era of Chicago. I really like some 70s era Chicago. 80s Chicago is as bad as music gets for me.
I’m not into music that has what sounds like they have an orchestra of horns playing.
First time I heard Imagine Dragons I thought my son had left his X-Box on and that was the background sound to a game.
WOW...
CCR, GD, Rush, Styx, AC/DC, The Stones... ya'll lost your collective minds. I guess you don't like Kiss either???

So that would be more 70s era Chicago. 80s Chicago that I am familiar with sounded more like Phil Collins’ leftovers.
KISS really blows. Along the same lines as Poison in my opinion.
Sorry, but I STILL hate The Ohio State University band!
They’re famous for spelling out the name of a university in Athens, OH: Ohio.
You think the Michigan State band spells out Michigan? I don’t think so.....
And I know the Kansas State band doesn’t spell out Kansas.
The Pennsylvania State University Marching Blue Band spelling out Penn? Not ever going to be seen in my lifetime.
SUGGESTION FOR tOSU: write smaller and get more band members!

I put CCR and the Band in the same category as the Dead—no thanks you enjoy their music.
The Beatles were a boring, overproduced, boy band.
I realize that is an unpopular opinion, but I really don't give a shit. The Rolling Stones were/are better. I won't debate the matter. It is, after all, just opinion. Time to move on. I had a hard day's night and I need some rest.
Hopefully some rest will help clear your head. LOL.
