JSngry Posted March 23, 2009 Author Report Posted March 23, 2009 "Is he tall?" "Well...I gotta look up." I mean...YEAH! There's so much that's just fundamentally....right about that whole thing that whatever might be wrong with it just don't matter. Quote

danasgoodstuff Posted March 23, 2009 Report Posted March 23, 2009 "Hmm...he's good-bad, but he's not evil" I'll assume that you meant to eccho the much maligned (here at Organissimo) Dave Marsh. One of the many ways he differs from standard 'classic rockism' is his ;huge appreciation for 'girl group' records... I've been meaning to post about why peopple hate Marsh so much, but that's another thread... Quote
JSngry Posted March 23, 2009 Author Report Posted March 23, 2009 I never paid any attention to Dave Marsh. He came along long after I would have had reason to. So I have no opinion one way or the other, nor do I think I ever will. But I do like a lot of "girl group" records, and I really like this cut (from Shindig, it turns out), by the Shangri-las. I really do think we've done ourselves a disservice as a culture by treating "innocence" as something less than the treasure that it is. I mean, yeah, you don't wnat to hold on to it all forever, but geez, you don't do anybody any favors by losing it all at once and too soon, either. And that "transition" phase can make or break you as to what kind of adult you end up being.... Quote
danasgoodstuff Posted March 24, 2009 Report Posted March 24, 2009 Fair 'nuf, the clips are lovely, nhot sure 'bout innocence - I mostly agree, but only mostly but don't have time to elucidate now. Marsh repeats the 'good/bad, but not evil' line often enough in his 1001 Singles book to be annoying, but he loves girls groups (and doo-sop, harmony of all sorts apparently). I did think the NPR interview with the Shangrilas' lead singer recently was slightly odd... Quote
danasgoodstuff Posted March 24, 2009 Report Posted March 24, 2009 "I had to look up", think about it... Quote
JSngry Posted March 24, 2009 Author Report Posted March 24, 2009 I have. That's that transition I was referring to... Quote

JSngry Posted March 24, 2009 Author Report Posted March 24, 2009 I like that a chick who would give it up to The Leader Of The Pack probably made him earn it first. I really do. Quote
