dig! especially on GC shanrilas and Fela kuti.
i love fela kuti, he always makes me happy, even when he is talking about nigerian oppression.

i think the fugs should get more recognition, and all of the 60's garage rock that gets looked over because of all the hippies.
like the thirteenth floor elevators
and especially The Sonics. they are so unflippinbelivable, and yet, nobodyt in the real world seems to appreaciate them and their contribution to punk.
and the monks too

Tav Falco - he really should have the same level of kudos as The Cramps. Poor sod.

In a forum that is over 75% white, almost 100% indie-bitch and about 50% below the age of 20, you couldn't expect to find many enthusiasts of classic funk, could you? You're way more likely to find fans of Dinosaur here, thats all I was saying.


Racist.

Pop Will Eat Itself - without whom no rock/rave crossover (perhaps)

And Head of David were not crap.

MC5 maybe?

I blame "cool"-hoarding hipsters for failing to tell others about great bands and, thus, cheating the bands out of their due attention. It's not that people don't look hard enough, it's that people don't share the wealth.

Plans within plans.
Secrets within secrets.
Cliques within cliques.
