Too old to rock&roll . .

. . too young to die. Sincere apologies if the subject matter here hits too close to the bone for some of us, but the grim reaper will get us all, one day, or another. If you feel like you’ll be kicking and screaming the whole way down, you’ll enjoy this post. This is for you, music buffs / afficiandos / boffins / authorities.

Once again, we’re taking the liberty of assuming that our readers are aged somewhere in the middle of the last century: still able to recall what rock and roll even was, and want to either relive those – let’s face it – heady and raucous times when music was live, edgy, innovative, in your face and unforgettable. That place in time occurred all over the planet almost simultaneously, but the video featured below edges toward music from the UK (even more precisely, London and Europe,) in a place in time that likely won’t appear again.

If you’re still awake from those wild times, you’ll recognise the bands, the songs and even the videos, because that’s when music really took off. So, plug in your Walkman (or take notes) and travel back in time to when music mattered and we were all deep in the middle of it. Hey ho, let’s go! Hey ho, let’s go! We have places to show you.
