State the obvious? I thought you were claiming I was misinformed and didn't know what I was talking about.

From my fist post in this thread onwards.

I said that what I was hearing in public nowadays was almost all computer chip, whence you went balistic and named 20 bands that had nothing to do with what I was talking about.

You were more interested in blasting than understanding.

But my just previous link is exactly what I was talking about.

No, I'm calling it garage as it's far too dull and plodding to be dubstep or grime. These days, garage is a genre of the evil music played with microchips, rather than a noisy record made by a band who can't play very well in the '60s, or a retro band who want to sound like a shoddy retread of the Sonics.
And again: when did I say dull shite by chavs sounded like ELP?

(I understand where you're coming from with all this perfectly, btw: you've got the needle because it's now possible for somebody to record something on a laptop and put it on youtube without having to involve an audio engineer, so you find that offensive and have a beef with microchip music as a whole. You've made that pretty clear by now.)

Good gosh, how clueless.

I only did some bit of studio recording years ago, and quit the live shows thing to get a degree at the uni. Computer noise shite has nothing to do with my livelihood. I made it plain from the get-go that the issue was the abomination to the ears.

Even if so, whatever crap somebody brought to the stage I had to get through the soundboard and into a sound system. The computer drum toys don't come with a 2,000 watt amplifier and large speakers, sweetie.

Why don't you just can it and quit being stupid.

Unlike you, I won't have to 'quit' being stupid because I stated the issue from the outset quite clearly. You're the one having such difficulty here.

Up to you.

If you're so smart, perhaps you could find where I equated ELP and a shoddy garage track?

Excuse me, but Lothar was not of the Hand People (never really met any of the Hand People) but a Norseman of some ill repute (albeit he came by it honestly, nasty temper and quick with an axe and sword.)

The Hand People, or guild of the hand (depending on your source) was (is?) a guild of thieves and assassins (evidently world wide) since the name has shown up from Persia to Japan.

The hand has been used in modern literature in comic books, fantasy novels, video games etc, and to be quite honest, never has done them justice.

The term I heard was fingersmith, rather than hand person
(But you ain't kidding about videogames dissing the hand. You should've seen the state of my thumbs after I finished the first Tomb Raider...)

Oddly I hve always really liked his stuff, particularly Trout Mask Replica, which I consider a masterpiece.
Other than that I have a soft spot for Cream.
Also The Crazy World of Arthur Brown, Jefferson Airplane (they lost me when they switched to Starship)
But my absolute fave is Hot Tuna, though I guess they are really more a 70s band.

They are, but I suppose you could claim most of Hot Tuna were the original Jefferson Starship lineup from Blows Against the Empire in '69 and get around it like that.
(Or you could take the line that the '60s were '62 through to '72 as those were the dates for the first and last Beatles singles, and the Beatles defined the decade. I rather like that argument, myself...)

As for the good Cap'n, my favourite by him is Clear Spot, but nobody's going to have that one as a '60s record.

Okay, first, Jefferson Starship was in 1969, Jefferson Airplane

Secondly, Hot Tuna was formed during the touring hiatus when Jefferson Airplane's Grace Slick was recuperating from throat node surgery by members of Airplane.

So there is validity in the claim, although the band was formed because the members didnt want to wait around doing nothing while Grace was recuperating.

The band was intended to be a short lived group, and began by performing a lot of Airplane material, but even after Airplane returned to touring, the band stayed a semi independent entity gaining a following in its own right.

To put it bluntly, it is Rock History 101... maybe more of an intro to Rock History for dweebs.

FYI, some of Hot Tuna's albums are worth big bucks on ebay if they are first pressings and made of the old vinyl.
