Come along if you dare.As you can see, back in 1968 the bands knew how to do a credible lipsyncing job. (The Who probably even knew how to do it, at least before botox penetrated the blood/brain barrier of Ellen DeGeneris lookalike Roger Daltry.) Also, to my eyebones, this is a relatively rare example of '60s footage in which the go-go dancers enhance the ambiance instead of detracting from it like arrhythmic, limp-muscled runaway teenie-boppers. The galloping rhythm section kicks ass, so does Ted Nugent's guitar. I've long felt that the lyrics glorify the mystic experience rather than psychedelic hipness, the drug mystique, or simple hedonism.
nice juxtaposition-- the troll-like, whining wiener from previous post curls it's hair and picks up a guitar and voila-- Ted Nugent.
ReplyDeleteHarry: Haha! I wish I could claim conscious intent for that linkage, but the credit belongs to Herr Doktor Jung's synchronicity phenomenon and to you for noticing.
