The Marshall Tucker Band is one of those odd bands out of the '70s that shouldn't have worked on so many levels, I mean really - the band sported a flautist who also a pretty decent saxophonist. A flautist . I know, people will throw out Jethro Tull as the other rock flute player, but they were miles apart stylistically. What I know about The Marshall Tucker Band would fit on the back of a stamp, but I have heard some of their stuff over the years. Classic rock radio will play "Take the Highway" and "Can't You See" both from the band's debut. Those are pretty cool songs, and an interesting blend of country and southern rock that I always liked. Let's just address the elephant in the room right off ... there was no one name Marshall Tucker in the band. Apparently the band was named after a sign the guys saw in a rehearsal space ... I think that's right. Regardless, turns out Marshall Tucker was a real guy, and tuned pianos. Good thing I'm...
A place where I just blather on about shit that I either miss, or am excited about. Or I could just be deliberately trying to waste your time. I generally really don't know what I'm talking about. Sometimes I do. Sometimes this is like a stream of consciousness brain dump. I like to think of it as a reaction video, without the video ... mostly though it's just me rambling ... it's meanderambling. #oldenoughtoforget
