I watched a documentary 2 days ago called Punk. It was a 4 part documentary about Punk Rock from inception through it's development into a newer form of Power Punk Pop. They of course interviewed Iggy Pop (but not a mention of Lou Reed). Iggy stressed the importance of The Kinks, specifically the single "You Really Got Me" to Punk Rock. There is no denying the importance of The Kinks to Punk (especially to those that lived it). They forgot to mention the importance of Lou Reed, Velvet Underground, The Troggs & early Who recordings. If you can't see the inspiration of early Who tracks like "Run, Run, Run", "Disguises" & "My Generation" on Punk, I can't help you. If you don't know The Troggs were a big influence on Punk Rock, it could be forgiven these days.

The Troggs, along with a lot of other great bands can get lost along the road of time. You get a certain set of songs on Classic Rock Radio. That set is what most radio programmers think is classic. The Troggs are regulated to memory by one song "Wild Thing" (very Proto-Punk, Metal & Grunge!). You can not  listen to these 22 songs, 2 tracks are interviews, without realizing how much The Troggs influenced Punk Rock. "I Can Only Give You Everything" is a great example (MC5 covered it as their 1st single) but the song "The Yella In Me" is the best Proto-Punk song lyrically I ever heard. How Punk is it to write a song saying that You let a bully scare you into giving up your girlfriend? Don't take my word for it, download this show and hear for yourself. You know you want it just for the live version of "Wild Thing" anyway, right?

Thank YouFor The Kind Words

 Hi everyone, just wanted to drop a line and say that I have some things uploading that I hope to have posted within the next couple of days. Been on a Southern Rock kick lately so there will be some Skynyrd coming up. A Who Pre-FM, as well as something from The Troggs . A Joe Lovano & Dave Douglas broadcast recording rounds out the new stuff

I will also be re-posting the Heart shows that Melapelan6666 pointed out as having bad links.

 My free time has now gotten to be a little smaller. Rosebud is back to work full time now. She had to quarantine with me for the since maybe April or May of 2020. My doctor didn't want her bringing covid home to me being a cancer patient. In her line of work she deals with the public a lot. I am so proud of her, she not only went back to work but has a new job with a better work environment  and better pay for doing relatively the same thing she was doing. So I have to do the things that she can't do when she's not home (LOL).

 Now about my health, my doctor says diabetes seems to be in good control. My neuropothy pain has been controlled to the point I can help around the house a little better (I'm retired by the way). My cancer doctor says that my tumor is in a place that makes it so we can not do the cryosurgery, to much of a chance damaging my urethra. This doctor who is my third doctor I have seen for my prostate cancer. He asked about that and I said I wanted to be really sure about things, not just a second but a third opinion. My doctors have all advised me that I should just monitor my cancer. There is a lot to the explanation so I won't get technical. What it kind of comes to is my cancer has not progressed since my diagnosis 6 years ago. My PSA numbers are still low,the tumor is still very small. The options left, chemo and prostatectomy both can cause major side effects. None have actually recommended anything but lets just watch it. They all say that I could live to my 80s and still only be stage 2 Gleason 6. So I could do one of the other procedures if I decide to but they don't recommend it. It's like my Dad, he was diagnosed with Non-Hodgkin's Lymphoma and was told he had 5 to 10 years left tops. That was 25 years ago and he is still only stage 2. Weird!!
