"Semolina pilchard dripping from a dead dog's eye"... They got it wrong. The real line is even worse.

I saw the Beatles perform, at the Hollywood Bowl in 1965. Saw the Stones in '74, thought they were past it then. Saw Pink Floyd perform "Dark Side of the Moon" in 1973, first time I ever heard it they were playing it live. I hated it, wondered what that commercial crap was with the saxophone and the Supremes-sounding chicks.

I saw Stan Getz perform at the Playboy Club in L.A. Tiny room, seated 75 people, if that.

I've seen Steely Dan several times. I think they're great. And I have a soft spot for Daryl Hall and John Oates, who I saw at the Roxy on the Sunset Strip in 1975. RCA Records was givin gout unlimited tabs and the opening act sucked so I downed double vodka gimlets as fast as they would bring them. When the headliners came on, I saw two Daryl Halls, two John Oates, two lead guitarists, two sax players and two drummers and the 10 of them put on the best show I ever saw.

I refuse to get tied up in arguments like this. I know what I like, and if anybody thinks record sales -- or YouTube views, or Melody Maker surveys -- are going to make somebody say "I thought the Beatles were cool, but now that you've explained it to me I now see that they suck and Oasis is Just It" (or vice versa)... think again.
