May 7, 1946 - January 14, 1992

New York Dolls - Looking for a Kiss

Can you believe that this #TheSonics #protopunk gem was recorded in 1965? I bet #RollingStones and so many others including #TheBeatles listened to this. It's timeless but ahead of it's time for sure. #music #punk

#NowPlaying Blue Cheer's 'Vincebus Eruptum' from 1968. Thanks to @wendigo for tipping me off to this. I think I'd heard a cover of Summertime Blues but never this whole record. It's rad as FUCK. Like a more psych Sonics or almost Kinks, with some great, extreme fuzz too- bluesy psych rock or "acid rock". Mudhoney definitely took a cue or two from these guys, too. A KILLER listen.

Bin ich ein Nerd, was die Musik der 60er und 70er angeht, wenn ich nur drei der 15 Bands nicht kannte? Oder doch ein Loser, weil ich von The Soft Boys, Sir Lord Baltimore und Comus noch nie gehört habe?
Fragen über Fragen.

Review: Sunny Afternoon, Chicago Shakespeare Theatre https://www.talkinbroadway.com/page/regional/chicago/ch801.html

Was #listening to #PBSNewsHour from last night and I was turned on to #Death, an African-American #PunkRock band, but considered #ProtoPunk because they were ahead of their time compared to other #punk bands according to the Newshour.

Put this album on just now and my mind is blown at how good this is! Not surprising that #PoC musicians are amazing, but this blew away my already high expectations! You have to give this a listen if you haven't!

#NowPlaying The Velvet Underground - White Light / White Heat Keeping going with the VU theme. I'm not sure any band can match the quality and consistency of their discography. #protopunk #psychedelic #rock #classicrock

#NowPlaying The Velvet Underground & Nico - The Velvet Underground & Nico Quite simply one of my favourite albums of all time. Is it my favourite album of theirs? I'm not sure. #protopunk #psychedelic #rock #classicrock

In memory of the great late Lou Reed, American musician, singer, songwriter and member of The Velvet Underground, born on this day in 1942, New York City

Love – s/t (1966, US)

Our next spotlight is on number 1043 on The List, submitted by mark_ohe. This debut album opens with a wild Burt Bacharach cover, and then Arthur Lee's fantastic voice keeps taking you places that require the volume to continuously be turned up. If you love love (and proto-punk, and the High Fidelity soundtrack), you might just love Love's "Love"!

RELEASE YEAR: 2024BAND URL: https://omnibuspress.com/products/mc5-an-oral-biography-of-rock-s-most-revolutionary-band

In this day and age, it might be nigh on impossible to imagine or even fathom just how pivotal MC5 truly were. Inhabiting a musical landscape that laid somewhere between raw garage rock and fierce proto-punk, these Detroit-based rebels essentially spearheaded a new movement […]
