I knew what that was before clicking on it. and that song convinced me that neil should never again use a word with "iller" in it. Now, off of this:Agree- that's worse than the Monkees. They didn't have a choice, the Stones did.
I guess for the flip side you have Neil Young:

Just because a band was more pop or singles oriented doesn't mean they were "media contrived". The Raiders and the Cowsills started in the normal way- friends or family members getting together to play music. I actually like them and the Monkees more than Cream. I think just about every band in that era wanted to make money and have hit records if they were honest about it- whatever their street cred or status with the rock critics was. They all took major record label money for one thing.Thanx Pam. These 3 bands, were media "contrived" to make money, so I can see them selling product, especially The Monkees. Cream was the acid-dropping, booze swilling, disrespectful spearhead of the anti-establishment movement, [[how long since anyone's heard that phrase) so a commercial venture seems so unlikely for them. I sent the clip to my old Gtrande-Cream-head buddy, who's also in disbelief. Probably done @ an early stage of their career, and the movement, before bands like that were shunned.
I guess Cream was so booze swilling, they wanted to endorse their fave product?
Sounds like I offended you, sorry. Peace.....
I think@ one point, they actually learned to play instruments after being called out by their public. No matter, I bought their first album. But don't get down on me, I'm not your stepping stone.
IMO, Ernest Ranglin is one of the finest guitar players of the past 50 years.

Nesmith, Tork and Dolenz are doing a tour in May. Their last two tours skipped Detroit [[where they had the largest audience with the last tour before Jones died). Saw them in Cleveland, it was an excellent show. Nez was at the Magic Bag twice in a year with one of the best bands I have ever seen backing him. Magic Bag treated a band member's family like crap, they won't go back
Guess we need something Irish for today:

Įrstķšir - Heyr himna smišur [[13th century Icelandic hymn) in train station
From Google Translate-
Group's name translates to "Seasons"
Hymn's name translates to "hear carpenter heaven"
What would happen if a group with one person barefoot and another with a beer bottle started performing a hymn at a US airline terminal?
Nice! thanks for the postĮrstķšir - Heyr himna smišur [[13th century Icelandic hymn) in train station

I was made aware of this, in turn, by Danny Young a professional drummer who grew up with my kids. This hymn was originally written by an Icelandic chieftain Kolbeinn Tumason, in the Christian era, who wound up in a conflict with a bishop resulting in the chieftain being killed by having his head bashed in with a rock. "Notwithstanding his opposition to bishop Gušmundur, sources indicate that Kolbeinn was a devoutly religious man of some education. He is best known for composing the hymn Heyr himna smišur [[English: "Hear, Smith of heavens") on his deathbed." - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kolbeinn_Tumason
what a thoroughly Icelandic story
