      I was born way after the 60s, and even I know that older music is way better than todays music. Us Millennials, who like good music, have to listen to older music. There sure isn't any new good stuff that means anything. I was talking to my friends last weekend, and I brought that when you listen to 60s,70s,80s music, you can feel that generation. The music carries the generation, and what the mind set was, and what people were feeling and thinking. I asked what music spoke OUR generation. 50 years from now, what music are people going to listen to and feel my generation? NOTHING. Because none of the music has any meaning.

      I was there. Watched Amboy Dukes in 70. It was great. Hard to explain the times. Was good.

      Yes it was an amazing time. So many things were being done for the first time. The first time. I don't know how to explain the feeling of freedom, the rush that anything was possible. It was overwhelming. It felt like an entire old word was being broken up, and a new one rushing in. There has been nothing like it since then. Not even close.

    Ted's original heavy buzz lead guitar and his terrific accompanying riffs ironically complement the beautiful echoing vocal harmonies in this classic psychedelic hippy tune which can journey into anybody's far-out mind...✌

    Certainly nothing like the crap that's out on the radio/iTunes/etc. today. Actual, world-class talent. Ted has his own show on RAV (Real America's Voice) and at 75, he still plays better than 90% of the guitarists out there today.

It was the Amboy Dukes ...... little did I know that as I got close to the stage that I was looking at a Young Ted Nugent. and they played ..... journey to the center of your mind. All I got to say is that I was glad to have seen it .
