Members Fender&EHX4ever Posted April 14, 2008 Members Share Posted April 14, 2008 I heard the Raspberries "Go All The Way" in Sears the other day, and it made me hungry for the days when Pop/Rock music was still naive, melodic, and influenced by the Beatles and the Beach Boys Granted, I was only in pre-school during the early-to-mid 70's; but I was listening to a lot of radio during those formative years, and hearing this stuff makes me feel all nostalgic. Please post some other good flashbacks, and jog my memory.

Members Fender&EHX4ever Posted April 14, 2008 Author Members Share Posted April 14, 2008 lol, I love that song. Great stuff! I like the first album best, but that's because I like Bell's melodies better than Chilton's. Especially this one: Big Star, Thirteen zKrk-ebQkac Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Fender&EHX4ever Posted April 14, 2008 Author Members Share Posted April 14, 2008 Check this amazing Easybeats live footage, such a cool guitar riff at the start. Move and Easybeats are late 60s :cop:That's a whole different era worthy of a separate thread. Cool songs though. Ever heard Bowie's version of Friday on My Mind?

Members Fender&EHX4ever Posted April 14, 2008 Author Members Share Posted April 14, 2008 Yeah, I know Lil' better: Sniff & the Tears ... and that's late 70s, another era worthy of its own thread. Come on guys, I wanna see some hippie fros and platform shoes. (cool song BTW, never head it before) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Fender&EHX4ever Posted April 15, 2008 Author Members Share Posted April 15, 2008 LOL exactly I always thought this guy was a woman when I was a kid Nick Gilder, Hot Child In The City I remember that one, and yeah, I didn't know if he was a man or woman either. That was the norm for this genre, wasn't it? Think of all the male vocalists of the mid-70s who had high feminine voices - Robert Plant, Isley Bros, Bee Gees, etc. That's something that has really died off since the homophobia of the 80s (for better of for worse) with the exception of a handful of greats - Thom Yorke, Jeff Buckley, Perry Ferrel, Axl Rose, Jack White, Prince, Jacko, etc. I also remember totally loving this song: Paper Lace, The Night Chicago Died [YOUTUBE]p-L0NpaErkk[/YOUTUBE] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Fender&EHX4ever Posted April 15, 2008 Author Members Share Posted April 15, 2008 Thanks machine gunner and Melx for saving me from being the only one to post in my own thread Is there no HCFX for early 70s power pop? Gawd, I feel so out of touch.
