punkfolkrocker You've Got to be Joking! - greatest blues singers (239* d) RE: You've Got to be Joking! - greatest blues singers 09 Oct 18


I've been a 'fan' of both The Small Faces and Billy Fury since I was a teenager bored with prog rock,
and needing something more immediate, emotional, and exciting...

They are just 2 of the many crucial 1960s artists that caught the attention of 'my generation'
of early to mid 1970s proto punk rockers...

I've just listened to a random sample of Humble Pie - alright, but not as good as the Small Faces;
and it's obvious Mariott is mimicing Soul and R&B histrionics...

He wouldn't have been the only singer in Europe doing that at that point in history...



Tunesmith - WE have already established we all think that Blues Greats list is naffly suspicious...

If anything, Mariott would be a more realistic contender for a similar Soul greats list,
then you could moan instead about him being included in that...
