It is amazing how dated this video looks. I don't think the song is though. I saw this group as a warm up to Billy Idol with my ex and his best friend from high school in Charlotte, NC. This group absolutely blew away Billy Idol. The Cult released a new CD about a year ago, but they never achieved the success they deserved. Here is:

Love Removal Machine by The Cult

Since we went back to Steppenwolf let's move on up to Alice Cooper "No More Mister Nice Guy"...

I hate when YouTube does this.........cause I have to write again what I did before. Is it not time for another company to appear like Youtube that has not been taken over by a monopoly????? Anyway, you have to click cause someone didn't want their inferior video to be stolen. Here is Alice Cooper when Alice Cooper was Alice Cooper. Please let us hope that Marilyn never becomes a golfer.......

Billion Dollar Babies by Alice Cooper

I spoke earlier in this thread about the beginnings of Rap.......well here is some of the beginnings of Punk......a really cool group The New York Dolls with "Personality Crisis"......not only did they provide a beginning of punk, they also provided some gender bending there......

So in leading to wherever we are going let's go ahead and take a "Walk on the Wild Side" with Lou Reed........

Let's go back to the hippies with Canned Heat and "Going Up The Country"........why I don't know.......it is just a cool song. The video YouTube has is not great though.

I can't really have the one song by Canned Heat without the other which is "On The Road Again"..........Canned Heat may look like a bunch of old hippies, but I have their CD and they are very good.

Another song from Canned Heat........probably a group none of you know......but they had a very unique sound, a very New Orleans sound.......they were definitely more than a bunch of hippies........Here is "Let's Work Together"
