wowzers. Any fans of real hip hop will enjoy this new one from Coast Contra. They are leagues above most rappers today.

Yikes!

@Tago-Mago Neil Peart doesn’t mess around

Love this weird ass band.

Been on a Chicago blues kick from the Sympathy for the Drummer book, overcoming recent biases towards the Delta and hill blues of my home state. It’s like hearing it all over again. Bad fucking ass.

@mclaincausey I would think that the author of that book would be quite happy,and surprised to see his book referenced in a Music thread on a Denim Forum.
-
@Jett129 he has some stone cold takes. I loved him ripping on the Doors’ and Cream’s odd blues pretensions and really didn’t have the historical context of the “safeness” and parental compatibility of the Beatles since my view looking back always included their psychedelic era.
-
I really did love that book and all the music it led me to revisit. One thing I remember was the love shown to Charle Connor…didn’t the author reference his intro to Little Richard’s “Keep a Knockin”? Which Bonham basically lifted? I could be misremembering. Thanks again @Jett129 for passing it along
@mclaincausey am I remembering that right?
-
@SKT yup, he showers a lot of the great New Orleans drummers with love including him.
One of his hot takes is that Rush pivoted to blues to prog because it was easier
