Yeah your right, Bruce is/was for the average Joe, everyday man...that's why people respect him. So was Dylan early on, but he never admitted it and Christy Moore over in the UK. Nostalgia, your right about that too..alot of his lyrics reflect uni...
When it comes to Bruce I always enjoyed Nebraska, the earlier albums are good in a classic rock sorta way. I guess Little Steven's is what it is...I mean if your new to the genre or garage rock in general, you'll be exposed to the heavy hitters or...
Plattsburgh is all the way up by Canada...I think it's a good 6-7 hours from NYC. That's what makes the Mike and the Ravens story all the more remarkable. What about NYC or Texas??....Bobby Fuller/post Buddy Cricketts who released a couple of good...
Ironically. I've heard they use to have rock n roll banaza's in Plattsburgh NY of all places. Mike and the Ravens held court there and released 3 good pre Beatles 45's (all collected on the Nevermore cd) and played live on a daily/weekly basis at ...
I think I was a member of the old garage punk forum.....I believe they had separate threads....new sounds (revival groups), the old sounds (sonics, remains ect) and many more? There was that remote control car looking logo thing? Am I right??? May...

I met Phil May and Dick Taylor of the Pretty Things. Good blokes too, they really were your average guys. I like the music a ton but really have no interest in the lifestyle of the famous or how these musicians live their lives. It's just about he...
What's the deal with that Remains documentary??...I believe it's called America's Lost Band and it premiered at the Boston Film Fest recently. Does anyone know when this will be out on dvd? I read somewhere that it amassed good reviews in the pres...

There used to be Retrospective II (I think it's out of print) - with a really good song I've heard titled Things That Are Important. Back in the 80's there was a cassette comp of 10 Lost Souls songs put out by Green Light - it gets good reviews to...

The two albums I'm most proud of are - 'Lies' and my latest one 'Polaroid Verite'. They are the most consistent in terms of overall playing, production and songcraft. Visit my website www.bobbryden.com for a whole lotta detail. Thanks again for you comment.
