Gladiators!! Now yer talkin' !! One of the very greatest JA roots groups. Actually started in the rock steady era with a few tracks. . There is a short film of them in the recording studio and when I first saw it I thought Albert was the coolest guy I had ever seen.

Roy Harper's "I Hate The White Man" makes me think of the white anti-racist historian Noel Ignatiev, who talked about how "treason to whiteness is loyalty to humanity" and used to be the editor of a journal called Race Traitor.

Hey Dereck I'm glad you're feeling better. It sucks you can't get new records but that's okay you have an amazing collection to enjoy. Then before you know it you be buying new records again. Porcupine Tree is it amazing band and they are an amazing live. I never show them live but the live albums are amazing. I enjoy live albums it feels more natural to listen to live albums. Don't get me wrong I still like studio albums as well.

Nowadays I’m clueless about mainstream music and better for it. Most people are spoon fed music. The music they like comes to them via radio, TV, movies. People that actually search for music or want to broaden their tastes are rare. People assume that if something is popular, it must be good. Hope you have a good weekend, Dereck. I don’t want to make this a super long message but awhile ago you talked about being..for lack of a better word, empathetic. That people suck on your energy and it’s draining and it’s rarely reciprocated. I’ve had this blessing or curse my whole life. I’ve had co-workers, people I barely know tell me things they’ve never told their best friends, significant others, etc. It’s a real balancing act for me. You have to put up boundaries. Lately it’s more like a wall. I love people but they drain me.

Never seen Mars Volta, but what I've heard of their music is pretty exciting. Sort of like IL Balletto Di Bronzo, but more guitar oriented. SCOTUS is in the bag for Trump. I wouldn't be surprised if they give him immunity on several felony charges, if not all of them.

I’d be lying if I said I didn’t find the Charli XCX album entertaining at times and can see the appeal for some who frequent clubs nowadays. However, I think the production is being overrated. Maybe I’ve listened to a lot of music but I don’t find it as amazing as other reviewers find it. The dark, glitchy type production has been done before AG Cook and the mid 2010s dance music. Maybe they’re just comparing her to really mainstream bubblegum pop music.

I also think I know what I’m talking about. The Mars Volta was great. Don’t really care about gimmicks, it’s entertaining, but being a musician my whole life, how the music is performed it’s what matters most to me. That was Hendrix’s frustrating was, that people wanted him to do gimmicks and he was tired of that. If you know about this, gimmicks are a way to get press and the attention of the people. I don’t think any real artist wants to be performing gimmicks for their entire careers. Bottom line they are professional musicians and they kicked major ass. I know, was there. No one, that I could see, left disappointed.

@dereckvon I get what you're saying, but to me they are gimmicks. And it's cool, because it's the way to get attention, and going to a show you want to be entertained. But I would have left pissed if they didn't perform the music right. BTW, good to see you are better, and F... all self-serving carreerist politicians and all monarchies too!
