Have you heard John Cale's version of Streets Of Laredo? Very close to the Cave musical template.

The #ChurchOfRockAndRoll #33 If George Harrison's chord at the start of A Hard Day's Night kickstarted Swinging London, then McGuinn's chiming riff at the start of Mr Tambourine Man a year later heralded the High Sixties, the moment when everything came into colour.

It's a tool, son. And like any tool it's as good or as bad as the intention and skill of the user. Try and get over your bias.

The #ChurchOfRockAndRoll #31. The Satyr's combo needed a manager and right on cue a manager found them, a teenage hustler called Andrew Loog Oldham. His cavemanesque middle name rhymed with Clockwork Orange's "droog". Infamy ensued.

The #ChurchOfRockAndRoll #30. It was Dave Clark's name. But it was Mike Smith's voice. And Mike's piano & songwriting. They could have been The Mike Smith Five. But he didn't like to hog the limelight. And Dave had the business head. And so it was. But it was Mike's voice.
