Sorry about that outburst but having lived through the 60's era and being a big fan of SOUL I get really pissed when I hear the garbage of today.
That's okay. You're allowed. Like me, you've lived through it when it was new. |

How many musicians can say that their signature song was a cover? Of this magnitude?

No exceptions. I was a huge Zep, Beatles, Floyd fan, etc. and at almost 52 years old, I've heard enough of it. If I never hear Comfortably Numb again that will be fine with me. Every note is permanently engraved in my brain anyway. |
