Passionately penned, Tim. Into the book it belongs! Excellent write my friend, you’re a great storyteller brother. I love pieces about music and this one didn’t disappoint. I remember the whole back masking deal, it all came to head during the Judas Priest trial. And then some people wonder what made the band write the “Painkiller” album after that trial. Nicely done. Appreciate you.

Thank you, Damian. I always liked hell bent for leather, livin after midnight, Nostradamus and other songs. But yeah, Priest was and is a great band. I do remember that trial. And I do remember Rob Halford having to sing on the stand to prove they didn’t influence kids to commit suicide. I believe Ozzy went through the same dilemma.

Totally hear you on this one. Proud GenXer (born in 74) but I was influenced by my uncle who showed me bands like the Beatles and Queen. Yes, there was something special about those bands that to this day still have an influence on everyone. The 27 Club has always been interesting to me, those guys (and gals) have left that last impression, tragic and mysterious and the “what could have been” leaving many questions unanswered. Whenever I pull some of this music in van my kids call it the Geriatric Rock, but it’s one of the greatest eras of music.

Not a huge fan of punk rock, but I’ve heard of GG Allin, his performances and how they were unforgettable. I’d say this ode to him was spot on. xx

He was a little too mentally ill for me. I saw him on Jerry Springer. Very disturbing guy.

In 1993 he was all over daytime tv. He made sure he got his message out there. By August of that year, he was dead.
Thanks Tim.

Powerfully penned, Keith. Incredible write my friend. I remember when he was on the talk show circuit, J.J. Burton and I cut school one day and it happened to be on so we watched it. lol. I can’t remember which host it was but know I saw it. Appreciate you.

He was publicizing his violent legacy in 1992-1993 on national tv. At this point he was touring with his brother who formed a band called the Murder Junkies. I almost had a chance to see them live in 1993 at a hole in the wall club called the Gas Station in NYC. It was that evening after the show where he went with friends to a party. That night he overdosed and died.
You can find some of the footage of that show and the riot that GG created afterwards on Youtube. Thanks Damian.
