But there are now so many songs now filled with debauchery and obvious satanic lyrics it's laughable at this point.
I gotta listen to a backwards record to get that old school evil!!

Forgot about Bob Dylan for heck sake! What is wrong with me? Will edit, that was embarassing.

The Wilburrys just make you feel good. Love their vids too.
Has there ever been a band with that many Legends of rock on it I pose the question?

One of the craziest real-life stories of a musician you never heard of is Col. Bruce Hampton.
Hampton founded the greatest, most talented band you never heard of (The Aquarium Rescue Unit) and helped create the H.O.R.D.E. Tour to feature them.
He played the songwriter, Morris, in "Slingblade".
He created his own miniature guitar that he called a "Chazoid".
Hampton was a cult hero among musicians and on his 70th birthday they hosted a huge tribute concert at the Fox Theatre in Atlanta. During the encore Hampton suffered a massive heart attack and collapsed on the stage. The musicians did not pay him any attention because Hampton had a history of acting crazy on stage. He lay there for several minutes through an extended guitar solo until someone finally check on him. He died later that night.
Google him and you will be surprised at all the big stars he either developed or played with. I am amazed no one has done a movie about his life.

This part made me think of Redd Foxx.
As Fred Sanford character he always acted like he was having a heart attack "This is the big one! Elizabeth, I'm coming to join you!".
Foxx died of a heart attack later in his career on set of another show and people initially thought he was acting.
He had been angry from being pulled out of an Entertainment Tonight interview and was rehearsing a scene with Della Reese when he died.
Another weird thing about Redd is he was only 49 years old when he began Sanford & Son.

Wild stuff, thanks for this Fred, never heard of Hampton. Dwight Yoakam was the bad guy in Slingblade BTW and is a very
good bad guy in Hollywood Homicide too. Pretty crazy how some singers/musicians are also great actors.

Always loved Redd Foxx, great show and he always made me laugh. Surprised he looked that old at only 49 years old.
RIP Redd and Bruce Hampton

Story time....
I buy a Lead Belly CD at Borders, get home finally get it out of that tape job ya know the one and put it in the player. after a few songs I hear......there is a house in New Orleans they call the Rising Sun.....huh? I knew the guy had died in 1949 so how can he be....??? I like everyone else I thought that was a Animals tune with Eric Burton a 60's thing. Well it isn't as I would find out, actually it's an old Appalachian tune first recorded by legendary old timey music legend Clarence Ashley (also gave us Little Sadie) in 1933, well I'll be damn, and here it is....
