You need to hear...
...Coroner's cover of Purple Haze. (Their cover of I Want You is pretty hoopy, too)
I'm not a Hendrix fan; like Yngwie Malmsteen, he's more interesting for his technique than for his actual songs.

Yes we have.
And you're still very wrong;-)
If Eric Clapton feels compelled to call his good friends Pete Townsend and Jeff Beck to a small bar to hear some kid play his strat backwards...and 2 years later they've all changed the face of rock music...the influence cannot be overrated.
But...we'll just have to continue the discussion this summer.

Why?
The Who is probably my favorite band. Tommy's uneven but has some wonderful songs. What do you find unforgivable?

That looks like a request
Just for Peter this summer, could we have at least 15 minutes straight of Elton John?
Thanks, Ben

Weird syntax
Do I have a Frog attribute, whose dissect method you call, or what? Feels pretty clumsy; apparently, I'd need to have a separate such attribute for every thingy I'd ever want to dissect. Or at least, for every type of thingy.
Smarter would be if I had a general dissect method, which gets the object of the dissection as an argument: crc.dissect(Frog); (or, if you insist on ugly C-ish syntax, " crc->dissect(Frog);").
But, WTF do I know, maybe that's what you meant...(?)

Well, a new hendrix cover is always worth checking out
but you really need to sit down with Electric Ladyland, preferably on vinyl, and listen to it.
It changed the face of rock and roll forever, that one.
