↳ Song: "Lazy" by "Deep Purple"
it's funny that this was considered "heavy metal" at the time.

Which I guess it still is, in a way. Don't know if today's headbangers would consider it so. (Or Led Zep, for that matter.)

You know I have my own tangentially related story, in that it goes back to Ray Stevens. When we were on vacation at some campground near a resort and I was just a wee kit still of about 4 years, I wandered away from the campsite and my mother couldn't find me anywhere, she finally checked with the guard station at the nearby resort and there I was in the booth with my pants around my ankles singing Ray Stevens' "I'm my own grandpa"

I'm impressed - "I'm my own grandpa" is a pretty complex song for a four-year-old.

Same could be said for pre-hardcore punk. I prefer the earlier stuff in both cases.

He seems the kinda guy where if you just asked him he's tell you. Last time I saw them he was tripping out playing his guitar plug on a big cymbal the drummer wasn't using. Psych rock DIY theremin. Guitar not plugged in, just the plug.
