For something completely different...
I do like variety in all things. As a kid I remember seeing Betty Davis's albums at the record stores, and wow, she was so outlandish that I just had to take one home to hear it. And, another WOW. Betty Davis was the wife of the jazz great, Miles Davis, and a true artists like him. She was a true lady and expected to at all times be treated as such, with conservative fashions of the day, doilies and lace etc... and never touch a door handle herself, nor pulling out her own chairs. But, on stage she developed this Mistress of Nastiness character that was a 180 degree turn around.
Although her music is raw, funky, and nasty, she has developed this code about her relationship to her husband and jazz, interweaving in artistic statements with some pretty risqué lyrics. And, I believe that she is still alive, but in a mental institute with much secrecy behind her condition.

Currently listening to Van Halen ~ Van Halen (first album).
In the office today. Headphones wide open for Corrosion of Conformity. Local band to me, following since 87 in their punk stage.
Clutch earlier and now CoC? You're killing it FurCoat, just no mercy. Great taste in bands. I spent about a decade living in MD and saw Clutch locally many times.....awesome guys, super live, and maybe the best "not quite mainstream" band out there.
For CoC there are era's/records I enjoy and those I pass on....but for sure they were one of the progenitors of that distinct 90's doom meets heavy rock sound (up there with the Melvins, Alice in Chains, etc). Some killer albums, and also great live.
In a big budget meeting arguing with the CFO, but had to stop for some CoC.
Currently listening to Frank Zappa ~ Zoot Allures.
"All Things Must Pass'.
Mr. Harrison.
Oh yea, it's still Chris' fault.

COC evoled so many times. Pepper really got the band to the soud I like although Blind was a masterpiece before Pepper took the lead. Being from Raleigh I've ssen them live more times than I can count. I took my boys to see Clutch. Awsome show. Last year we saw Slayer, Lamb of God and Anthrax at Red Hat. WILD. I miss live shows.
