I used to be really into obscure 60's rock. I learned about one band called The 13th Floor Elevators. They had a singer named Roky Erickson. He had a very good voice, but he apparently had some mental breakdowns. He later released some solo music that was kinda like horror-themed rock. This stuff was actually better than the very garage sound of the Elevators. Anyways, in his song "Two Headed Dog", he refers to someone as jerky. The rest of the lyrics are bizarre as well. I wouldn't mention it, but with the reading I've done about his history, I wonder if he was actually someone who was experimented on by a government program.
lyrics: Two-headed dog, two headed dog I've been working in the Kremlin With a two-headed dog
Two-headed dog, two headed dog I've been working in the Kremlin With a two-headed dog
Peace brought back, bought back Relaxed be nyet brought back Did you dry her out Wind her out like jerky? To me she's healed, don't attack
Two-headed dog, two headed dog I've been working in the Kremlin With a two-headed dog
Two-headed dog, two headed dog I've been working in the Kremlin With a two-headed dog
Children nailed to the cross Pain does not look our hell Certainly not a spell Sweet waste from a well
Two-headed dog, two headed dog I've been working in the Kremlin With a two-headed dog
Two-headed dog, two headed dog I've been working in the Kremlin With a two-headed dog
Winds quiet in the night Her body just blows Messiah Sickening sight left and right It's all right it does not please my appetite
Two-headed dog, two headed dog I've been working in the Kremlin With a two-headed dog
Two-headed dog, two headed dog I've been working in the Kremlin With a two-headed dog
Two-headed, two headed, two headed dog I've been working in the Kremlin With a two-headed dog
Two-headed, two headed, two headed dog I've been working in the Kremlin With a two-headed dog
Two-headed, two headed two headed dog Two-headed, two headed, two headed dog
like a mkultra vicitm?
Whoah I have overlooked his solo career. It reminds me of Detroit rock like Sonic's Rendezvous. Thanks fellas.
I can't believe you have to explain who one of the greatest guitarists in history is.
But here we are.
Guitar musicianship? I've never heard of him referenced for his guitar playing. Why didn't he even play lead guitar on his own stuff if he was so good? His voice was special. He would sound perfect even during a live performance like his one: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=l1DfvEfleU8&list=RDl1DfvEfleU8&start_radio=1
Good God almighty! Because I'm thinking of Rory Gallagher!
D'oh!
Apologies
