I fixed it... THEN saw your post... Slow, but mission accomplished.

 

Love you Both but I have to call it!


@SnakeCharmer , I have to go with @mike on this one...


Black Sabbath were an English rock band formed in Birmingham in 1968 by guitarist and main songwriter Tony Iommi, drummer Bill Ward, bassist and main lyricist Geezer Butler and singer Ozzy Osbourne. Black Sabbath are often cited as pioneers of heavy metal.

Deep Purple are an English rock band formed in Hertford in 1968. The band is considered to be among the pioneers of heavy metal and modern hard rock, although their musical approach changed over the years. Originally formed as a psychedelic rock and progressive rock band, the band shifted to a heavier sound in 1970. Deep Purple, together with Led Zeppelin and Black Sabbath, have been referred to as the "unholy trinity of British hard rock and heavy metal in the early to mid-seventies". They were listed in the 1975 Guinness Book of World Records as "the globe's loudest band" for a 1972 concert at London's Rainbow Theatre, and have sold over 100 million copies of their albums worldwide.


My first Album I ever purchased was:


The Second was:

 

Yes, I know because you are more of an underground type. My point about public recognition is important also. Its when every Preacher's son started wearing Sabbath/Maiden/JP/Ozzy t-shirts. That never happened before the 80's.

@Mikie, I am speaking not for myself like you and @mike are. Its a different POV.

 

For some reason that reminded me of this song.

 

Hello 2020!

 

Indeed black concert tees were the rage in the 70's. Maybe not at your elementary school. I still have a Blue Oyster Cult '77 shirt and had a few more from that era that got away from me. You knew who went to the show the next day at school.

I'm going with: Your awareness of hard rock music was aroused in the 80's, so that's your metal history timeline.

+1. A pop culture vantage.

 

I always manage get myself backed into a corner when I open my mouth. I got backed into a corner on another forum (Honda) today as well.

My only hope is that it is at least somewhat entertaining. Because I have discovered that one of my purposes in life is to entertain, however misguided it may be.

 

Yeah, my sister was listening to that stoner/doper music way back when in the 70's (she graduated HS in 74). She also dated guys that looked like they could have been in many of those bands which infuriated my career Marine officer father. Luckily, I had an older brother (class of 72) that liked the American Graffiti (late 50's, early 60's) type music so that's what I was mostly exposed to; although he was a huge fan of Three Dog Night and played Jeremiah was a Bullfrog on a regular basis.

 

Hm, that’s a peculiar way to describe hard rock music, maybe not shocking considering your environment growing up. I’d say every genre of music has its teetotalers and partiers. My old lady likes that old hard rock. No one could be farther from a stoner/doper.


Some 70s doper music by a sober guy:

 

Not so sober in the 70's....In 1977 and 1990 interviews with High Times magazine and the Detroit Free Press, Nugent claimed he deliberately failed his draft physical by taking drugs, eating nothing but junk food for days beforehand, and defecating and urinating in his pants.

 

The term Heavy Metal referring to hard rock music first appeared in Steppenwolf's 1968 hit Born to be Wild. The movie "Heavy Metal" was released in 1981, so maybe that's why you feel the term was popularized in the 80s.

 

Despite the publicity stunts he was not into drugs.

I thought reggae was the stoner music, not hard rock. But as a nine year old kid, Joy to the World sounded pop to me. This was better...




Oops that was Laura Cox, that doper/stoner chick always rocking out on YT, hitting the Free classic All Right Now.

Ever inhale, Mike?

 

Hmmm, I see I'm late with this post. Oh well.

 

Um... It's still not fixed. Did you fix something that wasn't broken?

We're going to work on there, their and they're in Utah. We will have an English professor along... If there's time, we'll also tackle to, too, and two!

 

Can you also have him review the noun/verb differences in smooth/smoothe; teeth/teethe; and everyone's bugaboo breath/breathe? Please????

 

The epitome of doper music would be Eric Clapton's "Cocaine," would it not?

Or, thinly veiled, "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds."

 

DAMMIT JIM! I’m a MOUNTAIN BIKER not a English teacher!

 

Well technically a whole genre of stoner metal was spawned From Black Sabbath worshippers.... See electric wizard.. or this masterpiece

 

It sounds even better after your inhale....

 

Driving that train, high on cocaine
Casey Jones you better watch your speed
Trouble ahead, trouble behind
And you know that notion just crossed my mind

 

yeah, one time when I was 10, I took a hit off my Mom's cigarette in front of her. I damn near died and that was the end of my experimentation. Not that I desired to experiment but even "dipping" on my high school baseball team would have been the end of my illustrious playing days.

 

Uhmmmm, That was INTENTIONAL!

 

Hehe, nasty choice of material! My parents laughed at me trying my first cigarette and coughing up a lung in the back yard. Disgusting!!!!!

I recommend a very small single-serving toke of hybrid sativa-indica flower, scissored up medium/fine in a clean all-glass water pipe filled with warm water. And an open evening with your SO. Wait :45 and try another if needed. Enjoy – it’s your right as a Californian.

So melodic! To each her own...

 

Ha, my high school girlfriend, circa 1990, called most of my music “black t-shirt music”. That was also the dawn of a tough time for metal.

 

Warm water?

 

Indeed; almost hot. Soothing on the innards. You know that feeling of taking a run when it's about 10° F outside? A little bit on the harsh side for the uninitiated. Ice is nice for us journeypersons, but for noobs or the sensitive I think warm is a friendly start point.

 

...makes sense...just before you send them down Yeager!

 

Heh, the weez and I got a chuckle out of that one.

I do miss that trail. It did more for my/our riding in six years than any trail. Glad I got to ride it with you – my only night run on it, no less. We can dream of its re-opening...


I'll happily take my share of blame for the massive deerailleuer in this thread...
