It's all a matter of what you like, isn't it? As far as I'm concerned, personally, most things I can think of are complete without Jackson Browne! One man's Marmite is another man's......errr.....Marmite and all that.
Sorrry!

I don't think Love have been mentioned yet circa-ish 1970. Some of the tracks on Forever Changes are absolutely sublime like this one.

I wouldn't dispute that! However, I prefer music to be lifechanging, as opposed to quite good. That's why, apart from my dad, Jackson is my all time hero. Sadly, there are too many Bridcutts out there and not enough Van Bastens.

I'm sure Sharon Tate would agree with you

So do I (prefer music that is life changing, that is) - and there are a few things on this thread that were life changing for me - but JB just isn't one of them. Like I say, Marmite.

Kosh, this was thread dedicated to one type of music, no-one has suggested it is the ONLY kind of music, Would you post some heavy metal music on a Northern Soul thread. Silly question, yes of course you would
Ah! You know me so well...
I would.
Although I dispute the heavy metal tag, I prefer heavy rock and/or proto metal.
From every coast, as well as the universe and... beyond.

The music scene in LA and SF around then must have been very incestuous because the chap I posted about, Craig Smith, got involved with Manson as well. Charlie boy certainly had charm, that's for sure.

Completely different genre but Sly Stone was from SF so this definitely qualifies and puts me in more familiar territory. This is the opening track to There's A Riot Going On. This is the sort of track that goes on forever and still finishes leaving you wanting more.

Dennis Wilson, as I think you alluded to in an earlier post, was also smitten by Manson and hung out at his commune much to the disgust of the other Beach Boys I believe.
Has to be said that Dennis was a complete feck up in his later life through drink and drugs, with people avoiding him wherever he went. Sad indeed.

Still think I'd have preferred to hang out with Dennis Wilson than Mike Love though!

I seem to remember this featuring on Silence of the Lambs, drum solos like they used to be when songs were longer. Starts around six minutes 30, have a listen if you’ve never heard it.
