I don't know if this is common or not but amongst socal folks le cronique was another term for high potency marijuana...or if something was super great like even a restaurants food they would say it was "Le cronique" haha

 

 

 

It's common knowledge 😁🤣

True Story #1

 

the name Blink 182 was chosen due to a high school rivalry. Blink is anacronym for **** and RB (Rancho Bernardo High) if you look up the letters R and B they fall in sequence with 182. So the band were basically saying **** RB High  true story

 

# 2 members are locals to my hood and it was well known that when they were off tour their favorite mexican takeout was Sombreros in Carmel Mtn Ranch. It was so well known that fans would come and leave writing on the bathroom walls...to the extent that the owner then agreed to accept fan notes and give them to the band next time they visited to save on bathroom painting costs LOL...Yep.

 

I believe a Rolling Stone article was involved with the publicity regarding Sombreros. The place is still there. 

Interesting stories, they were an ok band, but nothing I would rush out to buy/see. I am more interested in the restaurant. I miss good Mexican (Sonoran style)food. In rochester there is none to speak of. In Cali. , you have fish tacos and Baja sauce, but there is nothing like machaka chimichanga with a side of rice and beans. (Think the Original Garcia's in Scottsdale) and a strolling mariachi band, while drinking margaritas

That whole album was awesome. Nazareth was one of my favorite bands. Although this was a great album and a commercial success  I think loud and proud was their best.

Razamanaz and Rampant were my number 3 and 4. I Didn't care much for their later stuff, just like almost all the great bands from the 70's they sold out to the teeny bop crowd on their later albums.

Here's one from Loud and Proud.

I like this right off the bat. Great beat, rocks and the album cover is so cool..Owls y'all with sharp talons and sharp horns too

 

LOOK OUT!  whooooooooot.  hahahaa

That was a good show by Yes. I liked the Original lineup with Steve Howe better though.

Funny story about Nazareth's album art. My business partner, who was quite the artist in his own right, (and a damn fine house painter)drew the creature off this album as a mural on his bedroom wall when he was a teenager. When his grandmother was visiting from Michigan, she refused to stay in that room because she thought that was a picture of the devil. She suggested to his dad (her son) that he should immediately paint over it, so as to keep the house from being cursed.

Here's one from way back in the album archives.

I bought this record back in the mid 70's. I bought it because John Nitzinger was lead guitarist and I was always impressed by his performance at Mar y Sol festival (1972)(jellyroll/texas blues) on a record I got from my brother.

Bloodrock 2 is a really a hard driving blues record except for the song " DOA", which was a minor AM radio hit (and a truly dark song about a kid who dies on the way to the hospital after a plane crash).

This song is called "Cheater"

***BIC LIGHTER FLICKER****** 

 

do you recall the band cover of Blind Faith was a nekkid from the top like 12 year old girl? One year a YMCA camp counselor saw me and he says "Blind Faith"....I didn't know what that meant until I got home and looked it up..I WAS SO EMBARRASSED  skeezy guy saying basically I looked like that girl LOL the fact I did bears no consequence to my story. But it happened when I was ,maybe 11..

 

BLIND FAITH

Sorry you had that experience at such a young age. That album art was so controversial at the time, that the cover was changed after the original pressing. 

The band was a super grouping of

Stevie Winwood from traffic and Eric Clapton/ Ginger Baker from cream. They only lasted a few months as a group and only produced the 1 album

 

Winwood went on to reform Traffic.

The original band (w/ Dave Mason):

 The reformed version:

Delving into rock history today:

Carmen Appice is one of my all time favorite drummers. He and Tim Bogert (bass) have had a long history of playing together in various bands, starting with Vanilla Fudge

 

 

They moved on to form Cactus

 Then they teamed up with Jeff Beck
