The day Elvis died, Johnny Rotten was being interviewed by Rolling Stoneand upon being told the King was dead, said: “Good riddance to a fucking load of old rubbish!” While a bit harsh, as music criticism it isn’t that far off. Elvis was a very average musician, with a very good voice that came along at the right time, to be the white, commercial,a...
Gary Puckett & The Union Gap (named after a city in Washington, near where Puckett grew up) were a moment in the late ’60s, elevated by Puckett’s rich tenor voice, which contrasted with most of what you heard on the radio. The band had hits with “Young Girl” (a song about fearing your girlfriend is underage — Jimmy Page did not cover this, just say...
Many people — chiefly among them Bono — would expect to see his name at the top of this list, elbowing David Bowie and Mick and Jimi, not at the bottom where, frankly, he belongs. Because he’s a bore. Great singer, yes, and writer/co-writer of some classic, anthemic U2 songs. But, well, we’ve really just had enough of him, haven’t we? Jesus Christ ...
From Tina Turner’s raucous, edgy early performances of “Nutbush City Limits” and “Proud Mary” to an unexpected, massive second act — restrained but no less passionate hit ballads of the ‘80s like “What’s Love Got To Do With It” and “We Don’t Need Another Hero” — Turner exudes a power, pride and poise as commanding as her voice. Simply “The Best” in...
Hey, hey…did you know that the Monkees outsold boththe Beatles and the Rolling Stones in 1967? They were a TV fabrication, but along the way made some truly great, rousing and enduring music, with chart-topping hits like “I’m a Believer” and “Last Train to Clarksville.” Well, here’s your chance to bow down: Mickey, who had been a child TV star and ...
When your nickname is “Diamond Dave,” that should say it all. But it doesn’t come close. Easily the fastest tongue in the West (for his amazing one-liners), Roth brought the attitude to Van Halen. His high-energy routine was the perfect counterbalance (and foil) to Eddie Van Halen’s eruptions that see the band hit heights never expected for a Pasad...
The man who named his children such peculiar names like Dweezil and Moon Unit was actually a straight-laced cat who didn’t embrace the drug culture of rock, leaning more towards a jazzy-innovative rock sound in the ‘70s. Zappa released a mind-bending 60 albums in his 30-year career, including the conceptual double album Freak Out!— only the second ...
“Our Paul” as a whole generation of British people, mainly old women, curiously, called him, is one the greatest songwriters ever, and a singer gifted with an Angel’s voice, and the star of the greatest band of all time, Wings — no, I’m kidding! The Beatles, of course! But he only gets on our list for Wings, which had some superlative rock songs, a...
Jones really did die before he got old, and is a charter member of the eerie “27 Club” of rock superstars who died at the tragically early and precious age of 27. He was found dead in his swimming pool, a presumed accident following drug overindulgence, a possible suicide, a whispered rumored murder. I guess it doesn’t matter anymore, if it ever di...
Decked out in a kilt, a ball gag around his neck and his strawberry-blonde hair ratted high, Indiana’s Axl Rose was a new breed of rock star on the L.A. scene in the mid-’80s. With his lineup of debaucherous street urchins, early Axl was a pinup-worthy screamer who captured the personal decadence of his Hollywood on the classic Appetite For Destruc...
