If you take a newspaper from last week and soak it in the toilet for 48
hours, the paper still has more value and is less offensive than the drivel
Pink Floyd tortured their audiences with.

I never liked them much after Syd went South.

The greatest rock'n'roll band of all time was, of course, the Screaming
Jets. Closely followed by The Who (with Moon, naturally).

At least they had an album with "Moon" in the title.

Agreed. A load of pretentious, bloated rubbish.

Australian band, late 80s-early 90s, elements of AC/DC, Midnight Oil, INXS
etc. Absolutely fantastic live band, with some classic studio material and
fantastic live B sides too. Unfortunately split last year, but revered in Oz
and remembered fondly by those lucky enough to have seen them. The distilled spirit of rock'n'roll.


Matter of personal taste, I guess, as all these things are. As a bass player
myself, I found the interplay between Moon, Townshend and Entwistle
fascinating and refreshing, stretching as it did the accepted boundaries of
each instrument's role in their chosen musical genre. I believe this was
lost when Moon passed on, although the remaining members adapted well to a
more accepted style of drumming. Now that John's away as well, I think the
band have no option but to be a greatest hits package with whatever new
material they see fit to record being of an essentially different nature to
what's gone before. Which may or may not be a bad thing.

Strange thing to say, considering your question above ...

Could never get into them myself. I'm not sure I care too much about the
non-musical side of things, such as attitudes, relevance, politics etc., but
their musical output of which I'm aware just doesn't seem to push my
buttons.

Actually the only place that I have lived in where the Screaming Jets were
popular was in India in the early 90s. You'd always here them on Channel V
and MTV and the radio. Had a pretty cool chart topper in "Better".
