What Are You Listening To?

What a trip back to my teens.
I was just listening to some old favorites of mine a couple of days ago.
Love and Rockets mostly with a dash of Tones On Tails and a smidge of Bauhaus that eventually turned a bit more sinister with some Christian Death.
Nice! My friend Frankie wanted to record with Rozz way back but ended up succumbing to opiate addiction and HIV.
I just found Rikk's youtube channel from a 10 year old comment he left on a video.
I always loved his guitar work at least up until Gitane. He's probably influenced as many guitarists as Page or Bo Diddley.


The 'hits' are my favorite.

Speaking of Rikk...

I went to school with Tony's brother, Troy.

I love his guitar playing.
My older cousin who lived in Santa Ana, I believe he bussed to a different area, told me he went to high school with the guys from the Adolescents, DI, and Social Distortion as well as the chick from the new wave band Berlin.

All those guys were a couple years ahead of me and in Fullerton.
Saw L&R in '89 at Dodger's Stadium with The Cure and The Pixies.

And again in 2017 as Poptone
fun but not really diggin' it.
