@Bonsai Nut , the Loop died today. The contract to run the station was bought out of Bankruptcy Court by a right wing christian media group. One of the other stations in Chicago did a tribute by playing some of the local bands they introduced. The played Off Broadway, Survivor and others.

In the early sixties, I was about 5-6 years old, and we didn't have a TV set at home. But there was a neighbour up the street, my friends'granpa, who would watch the 30-minute weekly programme on the only black and white channel on tghe only TV set in the whole neighbourhood.

Charlie Parker, Miles Davis, ...

And later, these people putting french words on black music:


An important part of my 'side-) education ;)
 
PS: my mainstream musical education, that I don't deny either, was rather something like:


Then, Santa Claus brought me a record player, and that was the beginning of... Rock'n Roll!!!
 
French "Folk-rock", a curiosity ;)

I hadn't heard that in 40 years or so. Rather in tune with what I felt in the 70s, serious and depressed at first, but exploring more "social" encounters, ;)


Saw them at the "Bataclan" in the early 70s, with Planxty as the guest stars. Then, they played a few tunes together.

 
Strange to think it's been twenty-four years since Kurt committed suicide. I was not a rabid fan back in the day, on first listen I thought it was Megadeth, and they decided to go a little more mainstream. Obvious talent but the catalogue needed some "mileage".....but in hindsight, you can clearly see Bowie-level talent. Gotta' stay away from that hard shit man. It's true, bigger the high, be prepared to die.
