I remember the first time I heard this song, all I could think about was the harmonizing they were doing. This is the first song I heard by them and they immediately became a favorite of mine. This sing was released in 1985.

Their most well known song is "Tender Love" that came out in 1986. Great tune as well.

Sad to know that all original members of this group have passed away.

not much of a rap fan, but this is pretty good. I also especially liked the line that appeared at the beginning..."mediocrity is the result of complacency". True, and something we should have drilled into our skulls on a daily basis.

Another one by Dax. In this video, he has the lyrics on the screen. Check out his word play. This is the kind of rap I love. Lyrics that make you think and have a solid vocabulary to be able to follow. Kinda like Mitch Hedburg and Steven Wrights comedy.

Love that he gave a shout to NF. His music is hot as well.

ETA: video with the lyrics on screen. Sorry about that.

I agree with this, another good one but no lyrics on my screen and I can't quite keep up I'll have to go to a lyrics site and I think it will be worth it.

Not a song but was watching some older comedy shorts and came across this. I've seen Winslow a few times and he is an incredible artist with what he does. His skit as Jimmy Hendrix is spot on. Check this out.

Hard to argue the guy's point, whether one likes his music or not.

Glenn Danzig: Punk explosion could never happen today because of "cancel culture and woke bullshit"

Glenn Danzig is grateful that Misfits got their start in the '70s, because he thinks that they would have been canceled in today's climate.

I used to hate Frampton and his solo stuff just because of his splitting from Humble Pie. Humble Pie to me is the all-time most underrated rock band and Steve Marriot is even more underrated. They never got elevated like they should have and I blamed that on Frampton. But since, I have to admit that those few songs of his that were hits, and some others, are really good listening.

I know virtually nothing about Frampton outside of that Frampton Comes Alive album. It was one of the 10 albums I bought through the Columbia House mail order deal where you got like 10 CDs for a penny. I love that album. I've heard of Humble Pie but never listened to them, at least not knowingly.

However, I always was fascinated with the whole talking through the guitar thing. Maybe @strummingram can tell us how that's done.

Always liked Frampton and was pretty pumped when he came to my undergrad to play. Working for the on campus police department as a part-time job, I got assigned as part of Frampton's security detail and had the specific responsibility of escorting/clearing the way from the dressing room area to the stage area as well as the return at the end of the show. If nothing else, it was a great vantage point from the side stage for the show itself. What struck me during my "duties" was just how freaking small the guy was. I'm 6'4" and was also pretty thin during that era. Frampton made me feel like Andre the Giant walking next to him, lol.

The Talk Box is an amplifier and the speaker is "covered" and comes out through a tube that you put in your mouth and then the microphone picks up the sound that comes out of your mouth. They work, in a way, like the people who lose their voice box due to smoking.





And, Humble Pie is one of THE BEST rock bands ever. Steve Marriott is in the Top 5 list of all-time vocalists. I kinda prefer Humble Pie with Clem Clempson than Frampton, but it's close. Rockin' The Fillmore is an iconic rock album.

interesting, I always thought he was taller.

I used to usher at the Dean Dome back when they were more of a concert venue and it could be pretty entertaining and/or a real pain in the butt; but I knew that the security guys and the CC's got REALLY interesting gigs from the standpoint of rubbing shoulders with the stage talent. But then, I had some very interesting interactions with some of the talent in the crowd. Ethics and morals and dedication to the job though.
