Thread: FRIDAY RELAX TIME........FREEDOM, PAINT ME A PICTURE

I found a few goodies for this week

This first cut is a very rare cut by the Canadian band "Guess Who"
Be aware that Burton Cummings the lead singer rates in the top 5 rock
vocalists of all time (in my book)
If you doubt his ability listen to this song through the end , He has an ability to do melodic vocal ad lib that is beyond comparison

"Got any answers for sale" , What a line

One of the greatest bands all time , and not in the R and R hall of fame.
One fantastic song

"WHERE ARE YOU FREEDOM"
---------------------------------------------------------

This song was as relevant when it was written as it is today
STEPPENWOLF , "Monster" , If you have never listened to the lyrics ,
Do so now , you will be amazed

---------------------------------------------------------

Richie Havens , A classic artist
Everyone is familiar with his woodstock rendition of "FREEDOM"
But I think "Handsome Johnny" Is a better song

Extremely powerful , brilliant , timeless

---------------------------------------------------------

The state of this country today , One of my favorite modern bands
This is an old Genesis remake , But in this rare case the remake and original are equally FANTASTIC

Encore

I'm not a big fan of techno but this band gets kudos on this one

The end is very very powerful

"I can't understand what makes a man hate another man , help me understand "

ENJOY

Steppenwolf LIVE was the first album I ever bought!

You don't have the bell bottom leisure suit still in you're closet do ya?
Those first 2 songs were long as hell, but I knew you wouldn't let us down.
I noticed the disturbed video's reference to "Superman where are you now!"
I like Friday Relax Time thanks Clark. And sorry but every time I hear freedom and America I gotta play this, where would America be without em'
