There aren’t many bands or songs out there you can point to and say “this changed my life” but this band and song did.
It contains one of the dirtiest guitar licks ever recorded, an earworm of melody and noise.
They helped me discover the Velvet Underground 🍌(and kick-started the so-called Paisley Underground movement that gave birth to the Bangles among others).
My band could even play this song and it sounded BOSS (not every cover did, ha). So simple anyone could play it; but only THEY could write it.
I wrote about the PaIsley Underground years later for Magnet: https://magnetmagazine.com/2001/05/18/one-nation-underground-the-story-of-the-paisley-underground/
God bless Steve Wynn and Co 🎶 this one's still a keeper many decades later.

A classic that I can’t stop listening to today. Old school yearning but make it folk punk and funny and also add the sickest acoustic bass solo ever

Make chicken that dries out your entire body ! Make soup that sits in your stomach in the worst way possible ! Screw up pasta so badly that the Italian government declares it a hate crime ! Then next time you make these things make them slightly less awful ! I learn by doing and fucking up and doing again, and as long as something is gained from a disaster, it is not a disaster in vain.

The sun is shining, the world is alive and functioning, it isn’t even 11:00 and I’ve been moving for 4 hours now. In my laziness I had forgotten how this type of freedom feels.
