One of the best bands of all time
My hippie friend started an "Exploring music" club at school. Last week was British invasion week, and I learned about all these bands I never really gave a chance. Like, the Animals? Those guys were insane! But they had to dress up and look spiffy on TV because those variety shows were the only ones that would feature them. It was ironically funny at the time to see the Animals performing in suits the way we see their recordings on youtube now, and it gave me a whole new perspective on the time because I hadn't realized the irony. Another famous performance from this era, which I can't now recall (they also destroyed their instruments at the end of it), featured stylistic stuttering in vocals that went down in history... turns out the dude was just messed up on speed and couldn't get the words out. Whew. This is a pic of Eric Burdon, from the Animals, from the House of the Rising Sun video. This is Tyler, the Creator. I'm just saying, there's an insanity connection. love it.
Talkin' about my g-g-g-generation? They destroy their equipment and things explode at the end -- very funny!!Another famous performance from this era, which I can't now recall (they also destroyed their instruments at the end of it), featured stylistic stuttering in vocals that went down in history.
