Kevin 3 Posted February 27, 2005 Author Report Share Posted February 27, 2005 A funky Acid -jazz sounding group from Boston, I think. Great lyrics, and musical varieties . Excellent background stuff for parties. Try 'em you'll love 'em , or your money back (from fidelity fiend , of course). UB-40 Link to post Share on other sites

fidelityfiend 0 Posted March 1, 2005 Report Share Posted March 1, 2005 taking a cue from Bowie were one of the original overtly androgynous rock bands - they acheived very little notoriety for their music, more for their style and attitude - "Personality Crisis" was a minor hit for them - they also spawned the freak we know and love (or detest) as Buster Poindexter (David Johansen) - countless hair metal bands emulated their look and sound in the mid-eighties.

edna 6 Posted March 1, 2005 Report Share Posted March 1, 2005 All I know is three guys from Colorado, and it seems they´re pretty good...I remember they begun in the late 80´s... I will have to check about them and download something... Patti Palladine Link to post Share on other sites
Brad_M 3 Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Ok. First of all. She has no "e" on the end of her name. It's Patti Palladin. I was ten years old when my punk princess moved to the U.K. and recorded with Judy Nylon as "Snatch". Their single "All I Want" wasn't the only thing I wanted. I was just out of high school when she took on this gothic look that I still drool over today. For those of you who may have missed it, her teeth appear on the cover of Skrewdriver's album, "All Skrewed Up". I've been all skrewed up since she left.

edna 6 Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Oh, Cheap Trick... the two handsome guys and the other two! Great rock from the 80´s, "I want you to want me" and "Surrender" are my fave... and the "Live at Budokan" album is a must. Great you know Patti Palladin... I saw her a couple of times with Johnny Thunders and she´s recorded a very good cover album with him, "Copycats". Rufus Wainwright Link to post Share on other sites
fidelityfiend 0 Posted March 4, 2005 Report Share Posted March 4, 2005 Rufus Wainwright is the son of Loudon Wainwright III and Kate McGarrigle (?) and has forged a name for himself as a talented but very eclectic artist. His style of music has evolved over the years from vaudevillian to a type of operatic performance on his most recent release. Not my type of music but here's to ya if you like him. Let's go in the opposite direction: Clawhammer Link to post Share on other sites

miamisammy29 4 Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 Barry McGuire had a classic one-hit wonder with "Eve Of Destruction" around 1968, but then was blackballed by the radio stations and record companies, and never had a hit again. Lynyrd Skynyrd Link to post Share on other sites
katie_sane 0 Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 Pronounced Leh-nerd Skin-nerd, this southern rock band is particularly popular here on songfacts, with many posters naming 'Free Bird' as their pick for the greatest song of all time.

Brad_M 3 Posted March 5, 2005 Report Share Posted March 5, 2005 Sorry, Edna. I was laughing so hard at your comment, I forgot to post. Anyone who is a Rolling Stones fan should know Keith Richards and the X-Pensive Winos. Keith's solo career with the winos was short lived with only 2 studio album releases in 4 years. Good thing there's also a live album. If you're not acquainted with his solo work, get out there and pick up "Talk Is Cheap". Keith Richards' fans, enjoy the visuals: Give: April Wine Link to post Share on other sites
