Woops Wednesday. Rock and Roll Catch-up.
First off, I missed two Rock and Roll Tuesdays in a row, damn holidays. Second, I am always looking for an excuse to listen to Sound and Vision. To my liking, I am going to say that David Bowie and Lou Reed are arguably two of the most influential artists to ever impact today's sound assortment of avant-garde in Rock and Roll. Bowie's Stardust literally used to be one of my most-oft listened to records the year that I only listened to records and didn't have tv, but I have to tell you Low is even better. Do you think we'd have any of today's emo layered instrumentalist tracks if not for this album?? Or Sonic Youth, would you even know what to do without The Velvet Underground? This title song off their 1968 release must've seemed like a little bit of a joke when it came out. Hear that raw dog distort and guitar over the doowap? Yowza. Just sayin. Sorry I've been slackin on the posts!
