I've been trying to do vertical video and TikTok and
reels and stories, and then I even started doing shorts
on YouTube, which is I'm not really liking shorts because
it's like it's so different than everything. But anyway, for
(01:58):
some reason, I noticed, because I'm doing shorts now that
there's a lot of buttons at the top, and there
was this one button and it was I don't know,
I can't even off the top of my head right
now remember where it took me, but it took me

was like three videos in there, and one of them

I don't know that I would want cottage cheese in
my jello. Dave, inquiring minds want to know.

and he goes, I need to write this down. It
was just funny that you both on the same night
said you needed to write questions down.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Steve reminded us of the old kool Aid popsicle molds
that you could make your own popsicles with basically whatever. Yeah,
I forgot about.

filling them with doctor pepper.

Almost a minute. So the recording went for like another minute,
and you were you were shaking bacon, and.

don't think he realizes he's still recording, like, oh, please,
don't say anything funny. Oh yes, do please something funny.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
And then then you said, what did he say?
Speaker 2 (07:43):
So at the very very end, he goes, we love Stevie, we.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Love your phone calls. Love the phone calls. We got, well,
we bear get permission. First, Okay, I got some email.
So I think I told you guys last week that
Jeffrey had a girlfriend. And then we.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Asked, yeah, you never showed me a picture.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Both we asked if he was going to get to
see her. So in that meantime he sent an email
and said that they had to get something to travel
and they were going to try to meet like over
the summer, but then he emailed today, maybe yesterday or today, says, hello,
Jeffrey here, how are you bus heeads doing. My girlfriend
boke up with me? So I'm a bit a wee
(08:31):
bit heartbroke up.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Ah, So how dude, it happens. You'll be all right?
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Yeah, he says. We had a huge storm yesterday. One
of the trees in my street now looks like the
nose of rut. I don't know who the nose of
rutt is? Are you tte? He says. Anyway, I was
re listening to some episodes of the podcast and reminded
me we still have no porn episodes and no episode
(08:56):
about Boogie Nights. We also have no episode about Shaft,
Sanford and Mork and Mindy, the Jeffersons, the Dukes of Hazard.
I find this shocking. Oh yeah, we're not on Well
I got them all on our list, Jeffrey, they are
on our list. We will do at least one, if
not two, of those next month.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
I have no idea what knows ifredd is. I looked
it up and.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
I stayton call or emailed. He listened. He's been behind,
hasn't been listening to every episode, he said, because I
he had emailed me, I think, or texted me, and
I said, yeah, we were talking about you on the
show last week. And he says, what about what? And
I said, well, you just have to listen. So he listened,
(09:41):
and he says, hey, guys, I listened to the last
episode and heard about the stat episode request. I would love, love,
love love to do that. Let's see if I can
try to get up your way sometime in the next
few months, and let's plan on getting that done. I
can just report on what I've done. Unfortunately, we've been
(10:02):
so busy, I've fallen behind again. That said, I have
a lot of episodes analyzed, and then he says, my
memories of recipes in the seventies are mostly desserts. First,
my Grandma Weldon's orange zest drizzle bunt cake.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
Oh, well, that sounds good.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
I don't remember him. I guess I never got any
of Grandma Welden's. And then there was Grandma that says,
Next was Grandma Weldon's egg custard. Not a fan, but
my mom loved it. And then last and I do
remember his other Grandma Petty John and her chocolate Texas
sheet cake, which I think they did. They make that
when we went down for Marvin's funeral. I don't remember it,
(10:39):
or maybe they made it for Kid's funeral, so I
know I've had They made it sometime down there when
I was down there.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
So uh.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
And the gal from Zimbabwe, she sent a video. She says,
I came across this while looking for a video to
listen to while practicing guitar. In the beginning of the video,
it shows a little girl writing an inch worm. I
had that toy and wrote it all around the yard.
I even rode it through our vegetable garden after it
was cleaned up for the year. And you click on
(11:07):
the video and it says strangest nineteen seventies toys You'll
never see again. And it's got some pretty odd dolls
and stuff. So we may have to do an episode
on that as well, of strange toys that You'll never
see again. Oh and for some reason, they ad they
added the enchworm to it. But I think they still
sell the inchworm, don't they.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
I remember the song, you remember.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
The little toy kind of bounced up and down.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Yeah, yeah, I don't. I haven't seen one in a
long time.
Speaker 5 (11:35):
Maybe they don't.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
It's on the list, but there were some creepy toys
on the list. So we'll watch, We'll watch the video
and maybe do an episode of Strange nineteen seventies toys.
We've done toys, but we haven't done strange toys.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Oh and are you done?
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
So Steve actually he'd mentioned that he was trying to remember,
you know, show ideas, and he's like, you know, have
a music Oh yeah, he podcasting.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Well guess what, yes, yess yess yess he would what what?
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
So I think we're going to shock a few people tonight,
shock me, especially the people that really liked the eighties
and think they invented glamrock. No, no, no, no, no, no.
Glamrock was invented in the nineteen seventies.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Folks.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Now, there was anti before glamrock in the sixties, and
there was hair band glamrock in the eighties, but the true,
really great glamrock was in the seventies. And why is that,
mister Wheeler, because that was the greatest thing.
Speaker 5 (12:38):
He noted, man, Yes it was.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Yeah, even I didn't know some of this glam rock stuff. Yeah,
start it actually was a United Kingdom invention.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Yeah, a lot of stuff from over across the pond.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Yeah, and so I guess the definition of glamrock is
bands that have flamboyant clothing, makeup, and hairstyles, particularly platform
shoes and glitter. Glam artist draw on a diverse range
of sources bubblegum pop, fifties rock and cabaret, science fiction,
(13:15):
complex art rock, flamboyant clothing, and visual styles of the
performers often camp or and and grogenous, and have been
described as playing with other gender roles. Glitter rock was
more extreme, was a more extreme version of glam rock, right,
So I guess there was a guy named Johnny Glitter,
(13:36):
john John Glitter, Johnny Glitter, Gary Glitter, Gary Glitter. He
kind of he got in trouble. What I guess. I
didn't get to that part.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yeah, well he got arrested for having child porn and then, oh,
let's see nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Oh, well that's not in the seventies. So no, he
was cool in the seventies, I guess. So the UK
charts were inundated with glam rock from seventy one to
seventy five. And I didn't really, I guess I didn't.
I guess I've never like really seen t Rex. Yeah,
I mean I know their songs, but I don't really
remember what they look like. But their frontman, Mark Bolin,
(14:14):
was on BBC's music show Top of the Pops and
they performed Hot Love. He was wearing glitter and satins,
and that is often cited as the very beginning of
the glam rock movement.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
What song did they play?
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Hot Love?
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Hot Love? Well, this one's more popular.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Yeah, now I love this song, but I never I guess,
I don't, I don't. I can't visually tell you what
t Rex looks like.
Speaker 6 (14:44):
They look normal.
Speaker 8 (14:46):
That's weird because not sure why it's them during their
heyday Bill Legend, Mickey Finn, Mark Bowen and Steve Curry.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Maybe they got out of the glam rock in like
normal rock later on. What year was this song bang
No Gong? This seems like it was later than seventy one.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Well, for some reason, I don't have that.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Anyway. Yeah, so I guess h other British glam rock
would be The King, David Bowie, Matta Hoopel Sweet Now
see I never thought of Sweet as a glam rock
band either, but they had some great songs Yep, Slade,
Mud Roxy Music Alvin Stardust and Gary Glitter Yeah, and
(15:45):
then I think mostly because of David Bowie. Then glam
rock came to the United States. And that's where where
other other artist in the UK, Elton, John Rod Stewart,
Freddy Mercury of Queen all kind of adapted the glam
(16:06):
style and then it came over and then you got
Alice Cooper Lou Reed the only American artist to score
a hit in the UK. And then I think the
big one that really started it in the United States
as far as glam rock bands was the New York Dolls.
Oh yeah, and that's kind of where Kiss got their
(16:26):
idea to do their makeup and stuff was off of
the New York Dolls.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
I just happened to have.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
See that kind of sounds like Kiss. It does now
it kind of sounds like a rocky horror picture show,
which is rocky horror picture show is glam rock?
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Yeah, this is personality Crisis. Doesn't sound like Kiss any order.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
That sounds like clam rock. I like it. I gonna
have to try to dig up a New York Dolls
vinyl album. I wonder if he could even get a
New York Dolls vinyl album. Sure, I don't know, dude,
(17:28):
some of these albums are hard to get. Uh so yeah,
so t Rex kind of started it. Then you got
Roxy Music. They formed in nineteen seventy in London with
frontman Brian Ferry. Two years later they dropped their self
titled debut album and add a drummer, saxophone, obo player, synthesizers.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
I didn't get any rock. I didn't get any.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
Any Roxy music. I can't even think of if I've
ever heard a Roxy Music song.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
I probably have.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
I don't know that I ever heard a New York
Dolls song. Oh, we've talked about We've talked about them,
but like, growing up in the seventies, did you ever
know they even I don't think I knew they even existed.
Let's see the New York Dolls out of New York
and again that's kind of where Kiss saw them playing.
(18:29):
Nineteen seventy three debut album compared their style to the
sound of Lawnmower's cutting grass. However, in retrospect, the Dolls
have become known as a cult favorite and one of
the most influential bands of glam rock era. Thanks to
their first two records, New York Dolls and Too Much,
No Much, Too Soon nineteen seventy four. The band dissolved
(18:51):
in nineteen seventy six amid artistic tensions in rampant substance
abuse among them members No a Mon, Let's See, but
their legacy helped influence the birth of glam metal sub genre,
inspiring the likes of Aerosmith, Motley Crue, Twisted, Sister Poison,
(19:11):
and fellow New Yorkers Kiss.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Would you consider would you consider Aerosmith glamrock?
Speaker 1 (19:20):
Well, glam metal kind of?
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (19:24):
I mean, I guess if you're considering t Rex and
some of these other groups that weren't as glittery, I guess, yeah,
I got a little bit on, you know. So Kiss
put on the makeup and have this. They were more
of shock rock. They were kind of a glam slash
shock rock and with their makeup and so Stanley was Starchild,
(19:50):
Simmon was the Demon, Freely was Ace Space Ace, and
Chris was the Catman.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
I didn't do any Kiss songs, as everybody knows all
the Kiss Yeah, and they're not.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Yeah, I think they're more of the metal subgenre of
they're not really I don't think would consider it.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Yeah, everything i'd uploaded or downloaded was more unknown.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Did you get any Sweet? Oh yeah, play me some Sweet.
I love Sweet. I just and I've got Sweet albums
that I've just recently bought within the last year, and
they don't look like they're glam rockers on the album.
You know, I asked people about this song, and a
lot of people don't ever remember it.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
It was huge.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
I mean they played it all the stink and time.
But this wasn't seventies, yeah, I guess it was. This
was like late late seventies.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
It was like late seventies because this was played on
MTV a lot.
Speaker 9 (20:52):
Don't get jack it.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Seventy eight when it came out, seventy eight.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
You know, I think I think the first rock song
that you know how Christopher Todd's got all these stories
about different albums and songs that did one thing or
another when he was growing up. I think hearing Fox
on the Run on the radio was the first hard
rock song that I heard that. I was like, holy smoke,
(21:28):
I love rock and roll music. Sweet's got some good songs.
The album I got like the best of and every
song on the albums like you can sing along to
because you know the words to everyone.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
The stars, Shimmy, show Down Vote.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
That was a fun one.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
I love sweet Yeah so yeah, but Fox on Fox
on the Run is my favorite sweet song.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
Well, let's just plea that.
Speaker 5 (22:35):
I love.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
This song is out the album.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
No I've Got like it's like a best This is best.
It is mine's like best of seventy one to seventy
five or something. I remember this song coming on the
radio and me just jamming out.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Seventy four.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
This was definitely in my top ten of all time
favorite seventy songs.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Rescues out of place. I always cracking in.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
So when we do the Banana Seat Squad movie and
the song is definitely in it.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Speaking of I don't mean to get off topic here,
speaking of a banana seat bicycles. I was down at
the warehouse last night and Kip was going through Facebook marketplace.
He goes, oh my gosh, look at this and it
was a swim. It's called app Apple is a red
(24:03):
one apple crate?
Speaker 1 (24:05):
No, yeah, ap uh yeah, apple crate.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
I think. Anyway, it was on Facebook.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
It was red or green red.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
It was red like apple green.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
I thought apple crate was green, but I don't know
what red would have been, could have been anyway.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
He told me what it was anyway. It's never been ridden.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Oh wow, like like every straight from the store, everything on.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Its original and it's it's in perfect condition. It's like
fourner bucks.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Huh yeah, I had to be a scam. Yeah yeah,
yeah rats.
Speaker 5 (24:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Either either either it's a scam or it's the little
tiny version like Styton got me. Yeah, there's no way.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
About the no. See if I can find that show
you Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Uh so glam rock, uh, I guess they dubbed David
Bowie the King of glam Rock. I go with all
because his ever changing personas especially prominent during his Ziggy
Stardust era.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
Oh I didn't do any ziggy everybody knows all songs.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
Yeah, Bowie's flashy orange hair, painted nails, and elaborate makeup
looks alone were enough to turn heads. But he didn't
stop there. So I just you know, I wasn't ever
a big I wasn't that I didn't like Bowie songs.
I just wasn't a fan enough to probably ever buy.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
I don't think I ever bought up David Boye Bowe.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
Booe booy Bowie Bowie Boye. Then that kind of spilled
over to Alice Cooper, who was here Innina just super
long time ago. Uh, he was more he took the
glamorock to theata. Yeah, and his was more theatrical, and
he was known as the godfather of shock rock.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Category, especially after a solo album Welcome to My Nightmare
in nineteen seventy five.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Can't come as you just to listen to him?
Speaker 1 (26:01):
Yeah. His shows evolved from frenetic displays culminating in feather
pillows being ripped open, to goolish productions in which he
stabbed baby dolls and suffered mocks execution, though his latest
later career, such performances came to be more tongue in cheek. Yeah, yeah,
because I yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
And that's just a character, you know. Alice Cooper is
just a character, you know.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Though I didn't know he actually legally had his name changed,
oh did it in the seventies to Alice Cooper. So
when people say there there is no Alice Cooper, yeah, no,
there is an Alice Cooper because he actually changed his name,
which I didn't know. Uh, well, he was I can't
remember his first name, but Fernier was his last name,
and it says legally changed his name to Alice Cooper. Yeah,
(26:49):
I didn't know that, okay, So here was one. So
I've got a list and i'll after you play some
other songs, a list of a bunch of glam rock.
But so we were just talking about so last week's
episod was the recipes, and I threw in some alcoholic drinks.
So I'm looking at this list of glam rock bands
and one of them is called Vodka Collins. It's a
(27:12):
Tokyo based Japanese American rock band formed in nineteen seventy one.
The core band members were Blah Blah blah, blah blah blah,
a lot of Japanese sounding names. Most of the band's
released works were original compositions by lead singer Alan Merrill.
The band recorded four albums, the most well known being
the glam Rock Tokyo Slash New York, released in nineteen
(27:34):
seventy three.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Do not remember them?
Speaker 1 (27:36):
I yeah, never never even heard of them. Japanese Vodka
Collins were the opening act on The Jackson Five's first
show in Japan on April twenty seventh, nineteen seventy three. Yeah,
so there you go. Huh, Vodka Collins. I'll have to look.
I have to do a search for some Vodka Colins songs.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
If in the future, if you ever come across something
like that and i'd own you want to hear a song,
let me know on because I was just well, I
just found a list and started going through their songs
and yeah, did we ever play any t Rex?
Speaker 1 (28:13):
Yep, you did?
Speaker 2 (28:13):
Okay, Banging Gong? Yeah?
Speaker 9 (28:17):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (28:19):
They considered abba glam rock.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Really yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
So that so there was this list, and it's not
a huge list, but they listed all the groups. I'm
sure they left out a few, but Bay City Rollers
Oh yeah, I guess they were kind of glam rock.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
Yeah, yeah, they were the big shoes. Then the Outfits,
Yeah yeah, what was that one song?

Interesting, that was pretty normal.
Speaker 10 (29:49):

Like you were talking to your daughter about the the
Ozmpic song by Pilot, Yeah did magic? Yeah what did
she say? She liked that song or something like that. Yeah,
and you're like, yeah, it's been very long time.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
You know what's really funny is they just had nationals
for palm. So all the all the all the college
uh college colleges that have palm teams that compete nationally
meet in Orlando, Florida, And so Denise and went to
watch OU, and Cheney stayed here because she had stuff
(40:05):
to do. But we're hoping Cheney will be there with
OU next year. But every song, every dance, so Cheney
would come find me and she say, oh, you got
to see Ohio Ohio State or whatever. And all the
ones that she showed me were the palm teams competing
with a seventy song, and there was a lot of them.
Speaker 2 (40:25):

would think.
Speaker 2 (41:10):
He would do. I don't think it might be a
very good name for a me, Mud mud Dad.
Speaker 5 (41:26):
I'd have to rethink that one.
Speaker 2 (41:28):
Got nets. That's a little uh so.
Speaker 1 (41:33):
Real quick, and I might I'll probably bring this up
on the Buzzhead Radio podcast as well.
Speaker 5 (41:39):
But if you have not.
Speaker 1 (41:40):
Seen Norman's Classic Guitar Store documentary on Netflix, if you
like rock and roll and you like guitars, especially if
you like guitars, check it out.
Speaker 10 (41:56):
It it is.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
It makes me want to buy fifty freaking guitars. It
is so cool and they're doing and I think I
had I think I shared an ad for the documentary
on my personal Facebook because if you shared it and
tagged some people, you're entered to win a Fender Mustang.
Speaker 2 (42:18):
Oh nice.
Speaker 1 (42:18):
So I entered anyway, But yeah, great story, and it's
real cool because it's like right there over the Hollywood
sign on the on the back side of the mountain
on the Hollywood Sign. It's right there by the highway
and like a shopping or a strip mall. Oh yeah, yeah,
and you just go in there and there's like what's
what's the place called Norman's Norman's Classic Guitars. I think
(42:44):
he literally just sells classic guitars. I mean he's been
he started collecting them, and I mean he's got like
probably the biggest most expensive collection of guitars in the world.
And he's even got like this secret so he's got
he's got all the guitars in the front and then
he's got some stored in the back. But then he's
got a warehouse where there's like sixty thousand dollars guitars,
(43:09):
you know, like famous guitar like you know the guitar
Jimmy Hendrix played before he died, or you know, all
the all those type of guitars. He's even got those guitars.
Speaker 2 (43:18):
It's cool, and they're all old y're not like repas.
Speaker 1 (43:20):
I don't know that, no, no, no, no, no, Now,
I think he might sell like some brand new like
a Gibson Les Paul maybe, but I think I think
most of them are classic or vintage. So okay, check
it out.
Speaker 2 (43:36):
A couple more year ago, pop through Real Quick was
the sensational Alex Haley band Alex Harvey band on your list.
Speaker 1 (43:44):
It is not.
Speaker 2 (43:46):
Let's just see what they sound like. This is called faify.
Speaker 1 (43:53):
Well they're not using guitar.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
That'd be a synthony saturn.
Speaker 6 (43:58):
I guess.
Speaker 2 (44:01):
Maybe there's more to it than this. Ope, yeah, there's
some rockets. Yeah, that makes he's losing me.
Speaker 1 (44:13):
They're gonna take a while to get through the song.
Speaker 2 (44:15):
There, it's a seven minute song. Oh okay, they got
a different song, let's play it. Uh here, that's possibly
our last song ever. Heball, Well, they like they like
(44:42):
to make people eat.
Speaker 1 (44:44):
Yeah, now we got some guitar.
Speaker 4 (45:00):
I saw the lights on the nights that I passed
by her windows.
Speaker 1 (45:07):
Now this this is a little bit theatrical shadows of.
Speaker 8 (45:10):
The lot of line like Rocky horcicture showish.
Speaker 1 (45:17):
You know, but there's if you there's almost a little.
Speaker 2 (45:21):
Bit of sticks.
Speaker 1 (45:24):
Between me the one the one album. I don't know
there there for a second there was kind of like
a stick hunt.
Speaker 4 (45:33):
My.
Speaker 1 (45:39):
Well, they're not as big a fan of this one
as the other guys.
Speaker 2 (45:45):
Yeah, they're all over the place. Make sure it didn't
miss a good one.
Speaker 1 (45:50):
You're not using accordion in your rock song?
Speaker 2 (45:53):
Do we do the glitter band?
Speaker 1 (45:55):
No play some glitter band? H?
Speaker 7 (46:05):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (46:06):
They uh they look uh how they look like the
Brady bunch or something with their with their their PANTSU
so on.
Speaker 2 (46:24):
So this guy's like a light green, this guy's silver,
and he got two guys are gold and one purple,
one green by the two guys gold.
Speaker 1 (46:42):
Who knew glitter was such a big thing in the seventies.
Speaker 2 (46:49):
Yeah, And don't you think most of the really flashy,
oddball stuff was early seventies and yeah, kind of mellowed
out after the mid seventies.
Speaker 1 (46:58):
Yeah, yeah, And it sounds like like the glam rock
was kind of a defiance to the angst of the
sixties music. You know, it was so sixties music was
so you know, I don't even know, so dramatic. I
guess that I think glamrock came out to be kind
of like, let's be fun and flashy and not as
(47:22):
I guess, not as serious. I guess the sixties towards
the end was music was so sious. Everything was war
and anti war, and I think that's where glam rock
came from, where they were like kind of like, hey,
we're done with that, Let's do something fun.
Speaker 2 (47:36):
Let's be positive.
Speaker 1 (47:37):
Yeah, let's throw some glita, let's wear some glita and
make it fun.
Speaker 2 (47:43):
There's always fun.

tour in twenty second. Oh no, that was a number
of Yeah, that was.
Speaker 1 (48:03):
A number, But I mean we were at seven hundred
and fifty thousand so way back when.
Speaker 2 (48:09):

So.
Speaker 1 (01:36):
Yeah, So I've been trying so we have the whole discussion.
I've been trying to do vertical video and TikTok and
reels and stories, and then I even started doing shorts
on YouTube, which is I'm not really liking shorts because
it's like it's so different than everything. But anyway, for
(01:58):
some reason, I noticed, because I'm doing shorts now that
there's a lot of buttons at the top, and there
was this one button and it was I don't know,
I can't even off the top of my head right
now remember where it took me, but it took me
to this one section of my YouTube account and there
was like three videos in there, and one of them
(02:19):
was our very very very first episode of the Seventies
Buzz podcast, not the one that I posted on as
our first on the show. This was one that we videoed,
so it's us on video and it's only like I
think we only talked about the seventies for like fifteen
(02:41):
minutes and then we go into something else. But it's
like our very very first seventies Buzz podcast. It it's
on my YouTube channel. I'll have to figure out it's
but it's not in my regular videos. It's like in
some other section.
Speaker 2 (02:55):
Huh.
Speaker 1 (02:56):
Yeah, it's you and me down in Broadway Tower and
we're like we had something going because it I think
we were switching between Oh, I think we had switcher
going because we were there was different angles and yeah.
I'm like, I'm like, so this is like and I
think we're talking about, Hey, we're going to start this
podcast about the seventies and and so it was like
(03:16):
the and then I think we like maybe came back
and did kind of an intro to the seventies Buzz podcast,
which we recorded just audio, but this that video was
I think like our first first official Yeah. So I'll
try to find it and that needs to be it
in the yeah, in the world it's on my Yeah,
(03:37):
I don't know if people can get to it or
and only me can get to it. But I'll as
soon as we get done, I'll look on my phone.
Speaker 2 (03:43):
Okay.
Speaker 1 (03:44):
Now I found it on the computer, not on my phone,
so finding it on my phone might be a little harder.
Oh but we'll see. So we anyway back to the shoe. Yeah,
if you guys give us a ringy dinghy, we will
answer any questions. Did you have?
Speaker 5 (04:02):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (04:02):
Dave called.
Speaker 2 (04:03):
Dave called. He was talking about he still doesn't like it.
We'll go with Buzzhead Radio. Uh. He does like ranch.
Speaker 1 (04:11):
He does like ranch. And he talked about green jello
and cottage cheese.
Speaker 6 (04:16):
So is the cottage cheese in the green jello?
Speaker 1 (04:18):
I hope not. I thought he was going to say
green jello with carrots in it? But yeah, he went
he went to the cottage cheese route.
Speaker 2 (04:25):
Now, I like cottage cheese and I like jello, but
I don't know that I would want cottage cheese in
my jello. Dave, inquiring minds want to know.
Speaker 1 (04:31):
I'm thinking it's too so I'm thinking it's like a
blob of each next to each other.
Speaker 2 (04:36):
I would hope. Well, I don't know. Maybe we should
try it.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
No, I don't do cottage cheese.

He said, and so Dave always calls back because he forgets,
and he goes, I need to write this down. It
was just funny that you both on the same night
said you needed to write questions down.
Speaker 2 (06:43):
Steve reminded us of the old kool Aid popsicle molds
that you could make your own popsicles with basically whatever. Yeah,
I forgot about.

Oh wow, that were doing good.
Speaker 1 (06:57):
Yeah, they never it seemed like when you put pop

Speaker 1 (07:27):
Almost a minute. So the recording went for like another minute,
and you were you were shaking bacon, and.
Speaker 2 (07:34):
So we were sitting there listening to We're like, I
don't think he realizes he's still recording, like, oh, please,
don't say anything funny. Oh yes, do please something funny.
Speaker 1 (07:41):
And then then you said, what did he say?
Speaker 2 (07:43):
So at the very very end, he goes, we love Stevie, we.
Speaker 1 (07:51):
Love your phone calls. Love the phone calls. We got, well,
we bear get permission. First, Okay, I got some email.
So I think I told you guys last week that
Jeffrey had a girlfriend. And then we.
Speaker 2 (08:07):
Asked, yeah, you never showed me a picture.
Speaker 1 (08:10):
Both we asked if he was going to get to
see her. So in that meantime he sent an email
and said that they had to get something to travel
and they were going to try to meet like over
the summer, but then he emailed today, maybe yesterday or today, says, hello,
Jeffrey here, how are you bus heeads doing. My girlfriend
boke up with me? So I'm a bit a wee
(08:31):
bit heartbroke up.
Speaker 2 (08:32):
Ah, So how dude, it happens. You'll be all right?
Speaker 1 (08:35):
Yeah, he says. We had a huge storm yesterday. One
of the trees in my street now looks like the
nose of rut. I don't know who the nose of
rutt is? Are you tte? He says. Anyway, I was
re listening to some episodes of the podcast and reminded
me we still have no porn episodes and no episode
(08:56):
about Boogie Nights. We also have no episode about Shaft,
Sanford and Mork and Mindy, the Jeffersons, the Dukes of Hazard.
I find this shocking. Oh yeah, we're not on Well
I got them all on our list, Jeffrey, they are
on our list. We will do at least one, if
not two, of those next month.
Speaker 2 (09:16):
I have no idea what knows ifredd is. I looked
it up and.
Speaker 1 (09:20):
I stayton call or emailed. He listened. He's been behind,
hasn't been listening to every episode, he said, because I
he had emailed me, I think, or texted me, and
I said, yeah, we were talking about you on the
show last week. And he says, what about what? And
I said, well, you just have to listen. So he listened,
(09:41):
and he says, hey, guys, I listened to the last
episode and heard about the stat episode request. I would love, love,
love love to do that. Let's see if I can
try to get up your way sometime in the next
few months, and let's plan on getting that done. I
can just report on what I've done. Unfortunately, we've been
(10:02):
so busy, I've fallen behind again. That said, I have
a lot of episodes analyzed, and then he says, my
memories of recipes in the seventies are mostly desserts. First,
my Grandma Weldon's orange zest drizzle bunt cake.
Speaker 2 (10:15):
Oh, well, that sounds good.
Speaker 1 (10:16):
I don't remember him. I guess I never got any
of Grandma Welden's. And then there was Grandma that says,
Next was Grandma Weldon's egg custard. Not a fan, but
my mom loved it. And then last and I do
remember his other Grandma Petty John and her chocolate Texas
sheet cake, which I think they did. They make that
when we went down for Marvin's funeral. I don't remember it,
(10:39):
or maybe they made it for Kid's funeral, so I
know I've had They made it sometime down there when
I was down there.
Speaker 5 (10:45):
So uh.
Speaker 1 (10:46):
And the gal from Zimbabwe, she sent a video. She says,
I came across this while looking for a video to
listen to while practicing guitar. In the beginning of the video,
it shows a little girl writing an inch worm. I
had that toy and wrote it all around the yard.
I even rode it through our vegetable garden after it
was cleaned up for the year. And you click on
(11:07):
the video and it says strangest nineteen seventies toys You'll
never see again. And it's got some pretty odd dolls
and stuff. So we may have to do an episode
on that as well, of strange toys that You'll never
see again. Oh and for some reason, they ad they
added the enchworm to it. But I think they still
sell the inchworm, don't they.
Speaker 2 (11:28):
I remember the song, you remember.
Speaker 1 (11:30):
The little toy kind of bounced up and down.
Speaker 2 (11:32):
Yeah, yeah, I don't. I haven't seen one in a
long time.
Speaker 5 (11:35):
Maybe they don't.
Speaker 1 (11:35):
It's on the list, but there were some creepy toys
on the list. So we'll watch, We'll watch the video
and maybe do an episode of Strange nineteen seventies toys.
We've done toys, but we haven't done strange toys.
Speaker 2 (11:49):
Oh and are you done?
Speaker 1 (11:52):
Yep.
Speaker 2 (11:52):
So Steve actually he'd mentioned that he was trying to remember,
you know, show ideas, and he's like, you know, have
a music Oh yeah, he podcasting.
Speaker 1 (12:03):
Well guess what, yes, yess yess yess he would what what?
Speaker 2 (12:07):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (12:08):
So I think we're going to shock a few people tonight,
shock me, especially the people that really liked the eighties
and think they invented glamrock. No, no, no, no, no, no.
Glamrock was invented in the nineteen seventies.
Speaker 2 (12:24):
Folks.
Speaker 1 (12:25):
Now, there was anti before glamrock in the sixties, and
there was hair band glamrock in the eighties, but the true,
really great glamrock was in the seventies. And why is that,
mister Wheeler, because that was the greatest thing.
Speaker 5 (12:38):
He noted, man, Yes it was.
Speaker 1 (12:42):
Yeah, even I didn't know some of this glam rock stuff. Yeah,
start it actually was a United Kingdom invention.
Speaker 2 (12:52):
Yeah, a lot of stuff from over across the pond.
Speaker 1 (12:54):
Yeah, and so I guess the definition of glamrock is
bands that have flamboyant clothing, makeup, and hairstyles, particularly platform
shoes and glitter. Glam artist draw on a diverse range
of sources bubblegum pop, fifties rock and cabaret, science fiction,
(13:15):
complex art rock, flamboyant clothing, and visual styles of the
performers often camp or and and grogenous, and have been
described as playing with other gender roles. Glitter rock was
more extreme, was a more extreme version of glam rock, right,
So I guess there was a guy named Johnny Glitter,
(13:36):
john John Glitter, Johnny Glitter, Gary Glitter, Gary Glitter. He
kind of he got in trouble. What I guess. I
didn't get to that part.
Speaker 2 (13:45):
Yeah, well he got arrested for having child porn and then, oh,
let's see nineteen ninety four.
Speaker 1 (13:50):
Oh, well that's not in the seventies. So no, he
was cool in the seventies, I guess. So the UK
charts were inundated with glam rock from seventy one to
seventy five. And I didn't really, I guess I didn't.
I guess I've never like really seen t Rex. Yeah,
I mean I know their songs, but I don't really
remember what they look like. But their frontman, Mark Bolin,
(14:14):
was on BBC's music show Top of the Pops and
they performed Hot Love. He was wearing glitter and satins,
and that is often cited as the very beginning of
the glam rock movement.
Speaker 2 (14:28):
What song did they play?
Speaker 1 (14:31):
Hot Love?
Speaker 2 (14:32):
Hot Love? Well, this one's more popular.
Speaker 1 (14:35):
Yeah, now I love this song, but I never I guess,
I don't, I don't. I can't visually tell you what
t Rex looks like.
Speaker 6 (14:44):
They look normal.
Speaker 8 (14:46):
That's weird because not sure why it's them during their
heyday Bill Legend, Mickey Finn, Mark Bowen and Steve Curry.
Speaker 1 (14:57):
Maybe they got out of the glam rock in like
normal rock later on. What year was this song bang
No Gong? This seems like it was later than seventy one.
Speaker 2 (15:19):
Well, for some reason, I don't have that.
Speaker 1 (15:24):
Anyway. Yeah, so I guess h other British glam rock
would be The King, David Bowie, Matta Hoopel Sweet Now
see I never thought of Sweet as a glam rock
band either, but they had some great songs Yep, Slade,
Mud Roxy Music Alvin Stardust and Gary Glitter Yeah, and
(15:45):
then I think mostly because of David Bowie. Then glam
rock came to the United States. And that's where where
other other artist in the UK, Elton, John Rod Stewart,
Freddy Mercury of Queen all kind of adapted the glam
(16:06):
style and then it came over and then you got
Alice Cooper Lou Reed the only American artist to score
a hit in the UK. And then I think the
big one that really started it in the United States
as far as glam rock bands was the New York Dolls.
Oh yeah, and that's kind of where Kiss got their
(16:26):
idea to do their makeup and stuff was off of
the New York Dolls.
Speaker 2 (16:33):
I just happened to have.
Speaker 1 (16:39):
See that kind of sounds like Kiss. It does now
it kind of sounds like a rocky horror picture show,
which is rocky horror picture show is glam rock?
Speaker 2 (16:48):
Yeah, this is personality Crisis. Doesn't sound like Kiss any order.
Speaker 1 (17:08):
That sounds like clam rock. I like it. I gonna
have to try to dig up a New York Dolls
vinyl album. I wonder if he could even get a
New York Dolls vinyl album. Sure, I don't know, dude,
(17:28):
some of these albums are hard to get. Uh so yeah,
so t Rex kind of started it. Then you got
Roxy Music. They formed in nineteen seventy in London with
frontman Brian Ferry. Two years later they dropped their self
titled debut album and add a drummer, saxophone, obo player, synthesizers.
Speaker 2 (17:55):
I didn't get any rock. I didn't get any.
Speaker 1 (17:57):
Any Roxy music. I can't even think of if I've
ever heard a Roxy Music song.
Speaker 2 (18:03):
I probably have.
Speaker 1 (18:05):
I don't know that I ever heard a New York
Dolls song. Oh, we've talked about We've talked about them,
but like, growing up in the seventies, did you ever
know they even I don't think I knew they even existed.
Let's see the New York Dolls out of New York
and again that's kind of where Kiss saw them playing.
(18:29):
Nineteen seventy three debut album compared their style to the
sound of Lawnmower's cutting grass. However, in retrospect, the Dolls
have become known as a cult favorite and one of
the most influential bands of glam rock era. Thanks to
their first two records, New York Dolls and Too Much,
No Much, Too Soon nineteen seventy four. The band dissolved
(18:51):
in nineteen seventy six amid artistic tensions in rampant substance
abuse among them members No a Mon, Let's See, but
their legacy helped influence the birth of glam metal sub genre,
inspiring the likes of Aerosmith, Motley Crue, Twisted, Sister Poison,
(19:11):
and fellow New Yorkers Kiss.
Speaker 2 (19:14):
Would you consider would you consider Aerosmith glamrock?
Speaker 1 (19:20):
Well, glam metal kind of?
Speaker 2 (19:23):
Yeah?
Speaker 1 (19:24):
I mean, I guess if you're considering t Rex and
some of these other groups that weren't as glittery, I guess, yeah,
I got a little bit on, you know. So Kiss
put on the makeup and have this. They were more
of shock rock. They were kind of a glam slash
shock rock and with their makeup and so Stanley was Starchild,
(19:50):
Simmon was the Demon, Freely was Ace Space Ace, and
Chris was the Catman.
Speaker 2 (19:56):
I didn't do any Kiss songs, as everybody knows all
the Kiss Yeah, and they're not.
Speaker 1 (20:00):
Yeah, I think they're more of the metal subgenre of
they're not really I don't think would consider it.
Speaker 2 (20:07):
Yeah, everything i'd uploaded or downloaded was more unknown.
Speaker 1 (20:13):
Did you get any Sweet? Oh yeah, play me some Sweet.
I love Sweet. I just and I've got Sweet albums
that I've just recently bought within the last year, and
they don't look like they're glam rockers on the album.
You know, I asked people about this song, and a
lot of people don't ever remember it.
Speaker 2 (20:33):
It was huge.
Speaker 1 (20:34):
I mean they played it all the stink and time.
But this wasn't seventies, yeah, I guess it was. This
was like late late seventies.
Speaker 2 (20:42):
Yeah, I mean.
Speaker 1 (20:44):
It was like late seventies because this was played on
MTV a lot.
Speaker 9 (20:52):
Don't get jack it.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
Seventy eight when it came out, seventy eight.
Speaker 1 (21:05):
You know, I think I think the first rock song
that you know how Christopher Todd's got all these stories
about different albums and songs that did one thing or
another when he was growing up. I think hearing Fox
on the Run on the radio was the first hard
rock song that I heard that. I was like, holy smoke,
(21:28):
I love rock and roll music. Sweet's got some good songs.
The album I got like the best of and every
song on the albums like you can sing along to
because you know the words to everyone.
Speaker 4 (21:50):
The stars, Shimmy, show Down Vote.
Speaker 2 (22:25):
That was a fun one.
Speaker 1 (22:26):
I love sweet Yeah so yeah, but Fox on Fox
on the Run is my favorite sweet song.
Speaker 2 (22:32):
Well, let's just plea that.
Speaker 5 (22:35):
I love.
Speaker 2 (22:36):
This song is out the album.
Speaker 1 (22:37):
No I've Got like it's like a best This is best.
It is mine's like best of seventy one to seventy
five or something. I remember this song coming on the
radio and me just jamming out.
Speaker 2 (23:08):
Seventy four.
Speaker 1 (23:09):
This was definitely in my top ten of all time
favorite seventy songs.
Speaker 2 (23:19):
Rescues out of place. I always cracking in.
Speaker 1 (23:35):
So when we do the Banana Seat Squad movie and
the song is definitely in it.
Speaker 2 (23:43):
Speaking of I don't mean to get off topic here,
speaking of a banana seat bicycles. I was down at
the warehouse last night and Kip was going through Facebook marketplace.
He goes, oh my gosh, look at this and it
was a swim. It's called app Apple is a red
(24:03):
one apple crate?
Speaker 1 (24:05):
No, yeah, ap uh yeah, apple crate.
Speaker 2 (24:08):
I think. Anyway, it was on Facebook.
Speaker 1 (24:11):
It was red or green red.
Speaker 2 (24:13):
It was red like apple green.
Speaker 1 (24:16):
I thought apple crate was green, but I don't know
what red would have been, could have been anyway.
Speaker 2 (24:20):
He told me what it was anyway. It's never been ridden.
Speaker 1 (24:26):
Oh wow, like like every straight from the store, everything on.
Speaker 2 (24:30):
Its original and it's it's in perfect condition. It's like
fourner bucks.
Speaker 1 (24:34):
Huh yeah, I had to be a scam. Yeah yeah,
yeah rats.
Speaker 5 (24:39):
Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:40):
Either either either it's a scam or it's the little
tiny version like Styton got me. Yeah, there's no way.
Speaker 2 (24:48):
About the no. See if I can find that show
you Yeah.
Speaker 1 (24:52):
Uh so glam rock, uh, I guess they dubbed David
Bowie the King of glam Rock. I go with all
because his ever changing personas especially prominent during his Ziggy
Stardust era.
Speaker 2 (25:07):
Oh I didn't do any ziggy everybody knows all songs.
Speaker 1 (25:11):
Yeah, Bowie's flashy orange hair, painted nails, and elaborate makeup
looks alone were enough to turn heads. But he didn't
stop there. So I just you know, I wasn't ever
a big I wasn't that I didn't like Bowie songs.
I just wasn't a fan enough to probably ever buy.
Speaker 2 (25:28):
I don't think I ever bought up David Boye Bowe.
Speaker 1 (25:31):
Booe booy Bowie Bowie Boye. Then that kind of spilled
over to Alice Cooper, who was here Innina just super
long time ago. Uh, he was more he took the
glamorock to theata. Yeah, and his was more theatrical, and
he was known as the godfather of shock rock.
Speaker 2 (25:50):
There you go.
Speaker 1 (25:52):
Category, especially after a solo album Welcome to My Nightmare
in nineteen seventy five.
Speaker 2 (26:00):
Can't come as you just to listen to him?
Speaker 1 (26:01):
Yeah. His shows evolved from frenetic displays culminating in feather
pillows being ripped open, to goolish productions in which he
stabbed baby dolls and suffered mocks execution, though his latest
later career, such performances came to be more tongue in cheek. Yeah, yeah,
because I yeah.
Speaker 2 (26:22):
And that's just a character, you know. Alice Cooper is
just a character, you know.
Speaker 1 (26:26):
Though I didn't know he actually legally had his name changed,
oh did it in the seventies to Alice Cooper. So
when people say there there is no Alice Cooper, yeah, no,
there is an Alice Cooper because he actually changed his name,
which I didn't know. Uh, well, he was I can't
remember his first name, but Fernier was his last name,
and it says legally changed his name to Alice Cooper. Yeah,
(26:49):
I didn't know that, okay, So here was one. So
I've got a list and i'll after you play some
other songs, a list of a bunch of glam rock.
But so we were just talking about so last week's
episod was the recipes, and I threw in some alcoholic drinks.
So I'm looking at this list of glam rock bands
and one of them is called Vodka Collins. It's a
(27:12):
Tokyo based Japanese American rock band formed in nineteen seventy one.
The core band members were Blah Blah blah, blah blah blah,
a lot of Japanese sounding names. Most of the band's
released works were original compositions by lead singer Alan Merrill.
The band recorded four albums, the most well known being
the glam Rock Tokyo Slash New York, released in nineteen
(27:34):
seventy three.
Speaker 2 (27:35):
Do not remember them?
Speaker 1 (27:36):
I yeah, never never even heard of them. Japanese Vodka
Collins were the opening act on The Jackson Five's first
show in Japan on April twenty seventh, nineteen seventy three. Yeah,
so there you go. Huh, Vodka Collins. I'll have to look.
I have to do a search for some Vodka Colins songs.
Speaker 2 (27:56):
If in the future, if you ever come across something
like that and i'd own you want to hear a song,
let me know on because I was just well, I
just found a list and started going through their songs
and yeah, did we ever play any t Rex?
Speaker 1 (28:13):
Yep, you did?
Speaker 2 (28:13):
Okay, Banging Gong? Yeah?
Speaker 9 (28:17):
Uh?
Speaker 1 (28:19):
They considered abba glam rock.
Speaker 2 (28:23):
Really yeah.
Speaker 1 (28:24):
So that so there was this list, and it's not
a huge list, but they listed all the groups. I'm
sure they left out a few, but Bay City Rollers
Oh yeah, I guess they were kind of glam rock.
Speaker 2 (28:34):
Yeah, yeah, they were the big shoes. Then the Outfits,
Yeah yeah, what was that one song?
Speaker 1 (28:44):
Saturday?
Speaker 2 (28:44):
Oh yeah to you?
Speaker 1 (28:46):
Why?
Speaker 6 (28:47):

Good song?
Speaker 1 (28:52):
Who you gonna play with it?
Speaker 2 (28:53):
What do you if? I remember it? I think you
like these guys.
Speaker 6 (29:00):
Matt the Hoople.
Speaker 1 (29:02):
See, I wouldn't have thought. I wouldn't have thought Mant
the Hoople was a glam rock man either.
Speaker 5 (29:08):
Who knew?
Speaker 2 (29:11):
It's a great song?
Speaker 1 (29:12):
Yeah? Do they look glamorck? I don't even know what
they look like.
Speaker 2 (29:19):
I didn't see any fixtures.
Speaker 9 (29:23):
And bred as god spots to rep that up the side.
Speaker 2 (29:26):
Rock his face. No normal, I mean normal for early seventies.
Speaker 1 (29:37):
It's kind of odd that some of these groups they
considered glam rock.
Speaker 2 (29:41):
See, I just.
Speaker 1 (29:43):
Interesting, that was pretty normal.
Speaker 10 (29:49):
Oh the young dude.
Speaker 2 (30:05):
I would have to say, it's probably their biggest song.
Speaker 1 (30:08):
Yeah. There was a group called Sweeney Todd.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
Oh I've heard of them. Yeah.
Speaker 1 (30:14):
Wasn't that a movie too? I mean, wasn't that a Yeah?

You know it was right there on the I just

Damn it?
Speaker 2 (31:00):
You got anybody else to see? If I got one?

Speaker 1 (31:38):
Johnny Depp Johnny Depp.
Speaker 2 (31:46):
This call, let's say this sugar Baby Beloved, and then
slowed down ten percent in parentheses. It wasn't actually slowed down.

Speaker 2 (39:30):
Like you were talking to your daughter about the the
Ozmpic song by Pilot, Yeah did magic? Yeah what did
she say? She liked that song or something like that. Yeah,
and you're like, yeah, it's been very long time.
Speaker 1 (39:43):
You know what's really funny is they just had nationals
for palm. So all the all the all the college
uh college colleges that have palm teams that compete nationally
meet in Orlando, Florida, And so Denise and went to
watch OU, and Cheney stayed here because she had stuff
(40:05):
to do. But we're hoping Cheney will be there with
OU next year. But every song, every dance, so Cheney
would come find me and she say, oh, you got
to see Ohio Ohio State or whatever. And all the
ones that she showed me were the palm teams competing
with a seventy song, and there was a lot of them.

would think.
Speaker 2 (41:10):
He would do. I don't think it might be a
very good name for a me, Mud mud Dad.
Speaker 5 (41:26):
I'd have to rethink that one.
Speaker 2 (41:28):
Got nets. That's a little uh so.
Speaker 1 (41:33):
Real quick, and I might I'll probably bring this up
on the Buzzhead Radio podcast as well.
Speaker 5 (41:39):
But if you have not.
Speaker 1 (41:40):
Seen Norman's Classic Guitar Store documentary on Netflix, if you
like rock and roll and you like guitars, especially if
you like guitars, check it out.
Speaker 10 (41:56):
It it is.
Speaker 1 (41:58):
It makes me want to buy fifty freaking guitars. It
is so cool and they're doing and I think I
had I think I shared an ad for the documentary
on my personal Facebook because if you shared it and
tagged some people, you're entered to win a Fender Mustang.
Speaker 2 (42:18):
Oh nice.
Speaker 1 (42:18):
So I entered anyway, But yeah, great story, and it's
real cool because it's like right there over the Hollywood
sign on the on the back side of the mountain
on the Hollywood Sign. It's right there by the highway
and like a shopping or a strip mall. Oh yeah, yeah,
and you just go in there and there's like what's
what's the place called Norman's Norman's Classic Guitars. I think
(42:44):
he literally just sells classic guitars. I mean he's been
he started collecting them, and I mean he's got like
probably the biggest most expensive collection of guitars in the world.
And he's even got like this secret so he's got
he's got all the guitars in the front and then
he's got some stored in the back. But then he's
got a warehouse where there's like sixty thousand dollars guitars,
(43:09):
you know, like famous guitar like you know the guitar
Jimmy Hendrix played before he died, or you know, all
the all those type of guitars. He's even got those guitars.
Speaker 2 (43:18):
It's cool, and they're all old y're not like repas.
Speaker 1 (43:20):
I don't know that, no, no, no, no, no, Now,
I think he might sell like some brand new like
a Gibson Les Paul maybe, but I think I think
most of them are classic or vintage. So okay, check
it out.
Speaker 2 (43:36):
A couple more year ago, pop through Real Quick was
the sensational Alex Haley band Alex Harvey band on your list.
Speaker 1 (43:44):
It is not.
Speaker 2 (43:46):
Let's just see what they sound like. This is called faify.
Speaker 1 (43:53):
Well they're not using guitar.
Speaker 2 (43:55):
That'd be a synthony saturn.
Speaker 6 (43:58):
I guess.
Speaker 2 (44:01):
Maybe there's more to it than this. Ope, yeah, there's
some rockets. Yeah, that makes he's losing me.
Speaker 1 (44:13):
They're gonna take a while to get through the song.
Speaker 2 (44:15):
There, it's a seven minute song. Oh okay, they got
a different song, let's play it. Uh here, that's possibly
our last song ever. Heball, Well, they like they like
(44:42):
to make people eat.
Speaker 1 (44:44):
Yeah, now we got some guitar.
Speaker 4 (45:00):
I saw the lights on the nights that I passed
by her windows.
Speaker 1 (45:07):
Now this this is a little bit theatrical shadows of.
Speaker 8 (45:10):
The lot of line like Rocky horcicture showish.
Speaker 1 (45:17):
You know, but there's if you there's almost a little.
Speaker 2 (45:21):
Bit of sticks.
Speaker 1 (45:24):
Between me the one the one album. I don't know
there there for a second there was kind of like
a stick hunt.
Speaker 4 (45:33):
My.
Speaker 1 (45:39):
Well, they're not as big a fan of this one
as the other guys.
Speaker 2 (45:45):
Yeah, they're all over the place. Make sure it didn't
miss a good one.
Speaker 1 (45:50):

Speaker 1 (46:06):
They uh they look uh how they look like the
Brady bunch or something with their with their their PANTSU
so on.
Speaker 2 (46:24):
So this guy's like a light green, this guy's silver,
and he got two guys are gold and one purple,
one green by the two guys gold.
Speaker 1 (46:42):
Who knew glitter was such a big thing in the seventies.
Speaker 2 (46:49):
Yeah, And don't you think most of the really flashy,
oddball stuff was early seventies and yeah, kind of mellowed
out after the mid seventies.
Speaker 1 (46:58):
Yeah, yeah, And it sounds like like the glam rock
was kind of a defiance to the angst of the
sixties music. You know, it was so sixties music was
so you know, I don't even know, so dramatic. I
guess that I think glamrock came out to be kind
of like, let's be fun and flashy and not as
(47:22):
I guess, not as serious. I guess the sixties towards
the end was music was so sious. Everything was war
and anti war, and I think that's where glam rock
came from, where they were like kind of like, hey,
we're done with that, Let's do something fun.
Speaker 2 (47:36):
Let's be positive.
Speaker 1 (47:37):
Yeah, let's throw some glita, let's wear some glita and
make it fun.
