ML: "The Ramones weren't even the first US Punk band, if you count NY
Dolls and Iggy Pop as I must. And the Velvet Underground too. What's more
Punk than I'm Waiting For The Man? AAA, maybe...."
True enough. Personally, I think the MC5 are often overlooked as being
early punk pioneers. They didn't have the look but the had the sound and
the 'tude.
ML "Don't you notice how D&D is a very precision band, unlike The Who
but much like Rush?"
Maybe on 'Little Wing' but D&D was blues-influenced. Rush was so not
blues. Have you heard the D&D live set? Pretty sloppy stuff, must've
been the heroin.
After all this Prog talk has got me wondering. Where do you see The Who
gettting Progressive? Rael, Relax, Tommy?
