Summertime..



Είναι στιγμή παρανοϊκοί και νευρωσικές μου ακόλουθοι να αποχαιρετιστούμε, όπως κάνανε πάντα τα χειμερινά σινεμά εκεί κάπου στον Μάιο… και να δώσουμε...

Και παρά τα αντίξοα, αποδειχθήκαμε, ακόμη μια φορά τυχεροί, μέσα στην γενικευμένη μιζέρια, που διατηρήσαμε την δυνατότητα να ζούμε, όπως επιθυμούμε, δίχως να νιώθουμε στέρηση, την ίδια στιγμή που άλλοι με ίδιες συνθήκες, νιώθουν ότι πνίγονται σε μια ανέξοδη προοπτική συντριβής.. εντάξει παιδιά, όλοι θα πεθάνουμε!! πρέπει να γίνει τώρα που φεύγουμε διακοπές μήπως και καθαρίσει το μυαλουδάκι μας και να σκεφτούμε ανθρώπινα? Πρωτόγονα μεν, ανθρώπινα δε?… … Σε πείσμα όσων δεν θέλουν, πρέπει να έρθει η στιγμή να κοιμήσεις τον αγχογόνο πολιτισμό μέσα σου μπάς και στο κτήνος που θα συναντήσεις στην ερημιά (??) ξανάβρεις τον εαυτό σου…Και ο τόπος θα βοηθήσει…

 Γι αυτό μη νομίζετε πέρα απο τις προκαταλήψεις είμαστε εχθροί του εαυτού μας και η φύση γύρω μας επιμένει να μας υπογραμμίζει οτι δεν είναι έτσι....

« Όσο κι αν κανείς προσέχει, 
όσο κι αν το κυνηγά, 
πάντα, πάντα, 
θα' ναι αργά 
(Όδυσσέας Ελύτης)








Και όσο για την αρχική photo ας ελπίσουμε ότι ο Χρόνος να μας ευνοήσει και να βρει να ξαναξεκινήσει όταν θα είμαστε πια ξεκούραστοι (κ κανα σχετικό τραγουδάκι)…





Και για να μη νομίζετε, λάβετε υμέτεροι τις ευχαριστίες μου σε μια μουσική, καλοκαιρινή λούπα..



Κάθε πράμα στον καιρό του κ τον Αύγουστο Κομός...

Bob Dylan The 60's: Music Suggestion Of The Day 14/08/2015

Today I had to keep it great since I'm referring to one of my best in rock history. Those who saw the Beatles post must have guessed it... I had many thoughts in my head about the musical suggestion of today's playlist the first thought was about a very ambitious (as it turned out) compilation that was named From Redneck Marxist to Neo-Christian Communist covering time from 1962 to 1979... The other one was named The Road Trip Soundtrack referring to my imminent (as a threat) summertime 17-day break (the longest since 1999) and the music the car stereo should play all the way through the course...
The word is for the illustrious and ultra-influential, world wide, solo, rock artist to date (yes even greater than the King)... This is why is No2 in my list... and if u didn’t get the notion on cannabis u should if u can check the differences of musical styles and attitudes pre and post the infamous August meeting between Dylan and the Beatles. Quite simply music itself was never the same because after that meeting we had electrified Dylan and suddenly matured and highly experimental Beatles... 
If u like ramblings and u think the translator can help u check these older Dylanesque posts 1, 2, 3
But Mr Zimmerman fell under the curse of being old, becoming thus rigid to change (don't criticize what u don't understand) so banned every piece of original audio from Youtube, forcing me to upload personal Dylan's stuff, only to be blocked by copyright claims....
So not as intended let me present to you 
Mr. Robert Allen Zimmerman
a.k.a.
in a wide selections of his 60's era hits named:
those we could compile....

The Beatles: Music Suggestion Of The Day 13/08/2015



Some say the Stones are probably the meanest, most successful and most influential rock band in the history of music business… I, alongside Lemmy surely do not agree about that statement: ...the Beatles were hard men too. Brian Epstein cleaned them up for mass consumption, but they were anything but sissies. They were from Liverpool, which is like Hamburg or Norfolk, Virginia--a hard, sea-farin' town, all these dockers and sailors around all the time who would beat the piss out of you if you so much as winked at them. Ringo's from the Dingle, which is like the f***ing Bronx. The Rolling Stones were the mummy's boys--they were all college students from the outskirts of London. They went to starve in London, but it was by choice, to give themselves some sort of aura of disrespectability. I did like the Stones, but they were never anywhere near the Beatles--not for humour, not for originality, not for songs, not for presentation. All they had was Mick Jagger dancing about. Fair enough, the Stones made great records, but they were always s**t on stage, whereas the Beatles were the gear.”

Pink Floyd: Music Suggestion Of The Day 12/08/2015


It’s the final countdown… 3 days to go so it is ranked #3 @ MyTop 100 List… so the joined forces of Pink Anderson and Floyd Council the two bluesmen whose albums were to be found in Syd Barrett’s record collection, formed the greatest, most influential, highly progressive, band that practically established a trendsetter sound’s exploration, even if that didn’t found either the term nor the musical style of psychedelic rock …


Alternatively this post could be listed under the category of experiential fixation… the selections in this playlist are vividly alive in my memory as under the influence helped me and friends, experience sounds and feel the musical stories unveiled to us every time we were hearing The Ummagumma Live Ep par example… or just imagining seeing Syd entering the studio where the rest of the boys performed the shine track….
Ladies & Gentlemen, initiating the final countdown of The List,
It is a great privilege to present to you a playlist that could have been named It's What We Do: 

Pink Floyd

Guns 'N Roses: Music Suggestion Of The Day 10/08/2015


Since this week is the last before of a necessary summertime switch-off it is time to recollect some bands from MyTop100 List… u might call it follow – up on TS and Mötley Crüe posts as far as glamorous looking/high octane r’n’r performing but giving a new excuse to the term sleaze to be a major trendsetter of mid-80’s… 

Referring to groups like the stooges and the Dolls, but incorporating a poser style rather than a plain eccentric/mocking/provoking one (unlike Turbonegro did some years later), they managed to release the definitive mainstream hard rock album (ironically justifying the lust of 70’s punk rockers for commercial success)…


So today ladies and gentlemen we present to you a playlist that could be called «Use your Appetite for Lies», extensively covering 
(ranking #81 @ My Top100 List)
 Golden Era 1987 - 1991
