I cite my sources and they may differ than other people's accounts, so I don't guarantee the actual accuracy of my videos.

Best known for his ten year stint in the group Faith No More Jim Martin would be the group’s guitarist from 1983 to 1993.. Faith No More would break up in 1998 and reform in 2009, but strangely enough Martin wasn't a part of the reunion. Why’d he leave the group and what happened to him? Well one of the answers will surprise you and that’s what were going to discuss in today’s video.

Immediately recognizable due to his red trimmed glasses, his bushy beard and long hair, Jim Martin was born in the bay area and spent the early part of his musical career playing in a band called Vicious Hatred, which also featured future metallica bassist Cliff Burton. By 1982 drummer Mike Bordin, keyboardist Roddy Bottum and bassist Billy Gould formed Faith No More, which was named after a greyhound the bandmembers said they had bet on. MTV would report that Cliff Burton urged Martin to audition for the group. Taking his advice he did and got the gig. In their early years group struggled to find a vocalist, instead played gigs using an open mic policy whereby they invited a member of the audience to front the band each night. Not exactly a winning strategy to make it in the music business. One frequent attendee of the band’s early shows was singer Chuck Mosley who performed with the band several times and soon enough he became the group’s frontman.

Mosley’s time fronting the band would last about half a decade seeing the group put out two albums 1985’s We Care a Lot,and 1987’s Introduce Yourself. However Mosley’s volatile behavior and internal conflicts led the group to fire him before the end of the decade. By early 1989 having assembled a majority of the music for their third album, the band held auditions for a replacement finding Mike Patton. Patton at the time was playing in his outfit Mr. Bungle and within a week of getting the job he’d complete the lyrics for their third album the Real Thing.
The Real THing would be the group’s commercial breakthrough producing two hits in Epic and Falling to Pieces and the album went platinum in America selling over a million copies.

The band followed that up with 1992’s Angel Dust a record that would be guitarist Jim Martin’s last with the group. The album would sell about half as many copies as it’s predecessor going gold and marked a change in sound Angel Dust was the first album where Patton had a bigger influence on the music and rumors soon swirled in the music mags that Martin clashed with his bandmates about the title of the album, musical direction and things reportedly got so bad that some of Martin’s guitar parts were stripped from the record (at least that was a rumor for a long time).
Martin would talk to Kerrang in 1992 during the making of the record.
When asked whether Angel Dust was an enjoyable experience he’d rspond
Absolutely not, it's been an unpleasant experience from the very
beginning! It's been very unpleasant, but not really much different to my experiences in making records with Faith No More. It's very difficult to say it all in a short amount of time. "There's certain things
that certain people worry about at certain times, and certain other people choose to play upon it to increase the tension of a given situation until everything's way out of hand."
Angel Dust' would only have one song written by Martin. He wouldn’t attend rehearsals or meetings with the rest of the group opting to have the band send him tapes so he could add his guitar parts later. In all honesty it wasn’t too different from how faith no more recorded their previous records. Once Angel Dust was released in the summer of 1992, If you read a lot of the rock publications who spent time with the band on the road in early to mid 1993 you can see a lot of them writing about the internal tensions between Martin and the rest of the band.

Kerrang would write in their february 1993 issue about faith no more. While vocalist MIKE PATTON was taking an increasingly strong grip on the band's lyrical and musical direction, guitarist and

#linkinpark #chesterbennington #mikeshinoda

I cite my sources and they may differ than other people's accounts, so I don't guarantee the actual accuracy of my videos.

Linkin Park’s celebrated debut album 2000’s Hybrid Theory would come out during the peak of the nu-metal’s popularity. Linkin Park over the next several years became inescapable if you listened to rock radio or watched MTV. What came next is truly amazing. Linkin Park did something that so few bands could do, their popularity eclipsed trends in music and they soon ventured into uncharted territory, much to the chagrin of some of their fans. But sadly their nearly two decade run came to an abrupt end following the death of frontman Chester Bennington. Today, let’s take a deep dive into the career of Linkin Park.

Linkin Park’s story begins with Rapper/vocalist/guitarist/keyboardist/producer Mike Shinoda. Shinoda would be born to a japanese father and a white mother with the musician telling Howard Stern that being mixed race resulted in him not really knowing where he belonged in school. His mother would encourage him by the age of 6 to take up piano lessons thinking it would look good on his college applications. In addition to music lessons Shinoda would tell the shock jock that he he spent a lot of his time as a young child painting and doing artwork with the idea that perhaps someday he’d become an artist

It was by the time he became a teenager he soon started to get into the blues, jazz and hip hop. Shinoda by the mid 80’s would be hugely influenced by Run-DMC’s second record King of Rock and Beastie Boys' License to Ill as well as LL Cool J's Bad in addition to Public Enemy and NWA. It would be the collaborations and blending of rock and rap that gave Shinoda an idea of what he wanted to pursue musically telling Rolling Stone “The first show I went to was Anthrax and Public Enemy. They did ‘Bring the Noise’ together, and I was like, ‘That’s the most amazing thing I’ve ever heard.

Wanting to follow in the footsteps of his music idols who sampled popular rock music in their songs he would ask his musical teacher to teach him how to do just that recalling to to Rolling Stone. When I was about thirteen, I told my teacher, Eileen, I wanted to get more into playing jazz and blues and maybe hip-hop. She said she couldn't help me out with that because that wasn't her training. She said, "Maybe you just wanna get a keyboard and start learning those things on your own." I thought that was really big of her to say, and definitely led to an important point in my life where I bought a keyboard. Then I got a sampler, started making beats and playing around with MIDI and digital-based music.”

Shinoda would tell Stern that prior to Chester Bennington fronting Linkin Park the seeds of the band began with him and a childhood friend of his named Mark Wakefield who he first started making music with recalling to the shock jock “the band was just originally me and Mark and i would mostly do all the rap stuff and he would do most of the rock stuff and then we’d teach each other the other side. Mark also happened to be living next door to guitarist Brad Delson with Shinoda adding “Almost like a TV Sitcom they were next door neighbours and there windows were across from each other…We’d be in mark’s room playing sega genesis and you’d hear brad playing metallica on the guitar from the other window.” Delson was also a schoolmate of Shinoda Agoura High School in southern california. The trio soon recruited a bandmate of Delson, drummer Rob Bourdon, who played with him in the band Relative Degree.“ Bourdon, got his start drumming in the third grade after his parents took him to an aerosmith concert. Fun fact . (Bourdon’s mother, Patty, was a high school girlfriend of Aerosmith drummer Joey Kramer, who he credits with coming up with the band name.

It was following high school Shinoda attended Pasadena’s California’s Art of College Design where he studied illustration. Shinoda would refer to the school a

#thewho #keithmoon #drummer

I cite my sources and they may differ than other people's accounts, so I don't guarantee the actual accuracy of my videos.

Keith Moon played a crucial role in the Who’s early success. But as much as he’d receive acclaim for his distinctive drumming, he’d also gain notoriety for his self-destructive behavior. In fact, Moon would die in 1978 at the young age of 32 as a direct result of such behavior, right as the band were celebrating the release of their seminal eighth album, Who Are You. Today, we’ll explore the life and death of Keith Moon, the Who’s best-known drummer.
Keith Moon was born in 1946 in London, England, and raised in Wembley. Moon was thought to have a restless imagination as a child, and took a strong liking to British radio comedy, while music resonated with him just the same. Moon grew up in a post-World War 2 environment, and like many children at the time, was oblivious to the anxieties that remained prevalent. On an episode of the docuseries Living Famously, music journalist Tony Fletcher would surmise how Moon, as well as other children, processed the world around them, saying,
“The kids who grew up…don’t have their parents’ experiences of the war. They don’t understand their longing for this peaceful, quiet life, and to be quite honest, they’re bored; that’s the bottom line,” adding, “You throw Keith into this, and there really can’t be any question that he would’ve qualified these days as being hyperactive.”
By 1961, rock music expanded its reach worldwide. Moon was a teenager at this point, often performing poorly in school, and as a way to channel his hyperactivity, he started taking drum lessons at age 14. During one of The Who’s first visits to America, Moon would recall his initial experience with playing drums before the lessons took place,
“It’s too far back to remember, but I can talk about when I first got interested in wanting to play an instrument. [It] was the Beach Boys who really started me playing drums. I hadn’t really thought about playing an instrument until I heard music that I wanted to play [along to]. I’d have a kit and just play along with a record in my room, and then I’d join a group and do some stuff with them,” he’d say.
When asked if he’d played along to other records besides the Beach Boys, Moon would respond:
“Yeah, I liked Eddie Cochran and Dionne [Warwick]. There were mainly American groups in those days, because Britain wasn’t really playing a lot of stuff. There were a few English [acts] then, but they didn’t impress me; I can’t remember any. It was like that until the Beatles came along, and then I started to have a serious outlook on playing.”
Moon’s drum tutor would be Carlo Little, who was well-known as the drummer for the musician Screaming Lord Such, and who’d profoundly influence Moon’s playing, as he taught him the unrestrained, hard-hitting style he’d become famous for.
Little would comment on just how intense their lessons would get, even to the point of going overtime. “Instead of an hour, or an hour and a half, [they] would be three or four hours. Sometimes, we’d have the amplifiers going so loud that we started to see the ceiling crack, and bits of plaster falling off the walls,” he’d say.
After several years playing professionally, Moon became competent in his musicianship, and by 1964, he’d audition for The Who. Prior to his joining, he was drumming for another band, The Beachcombers. Meanwhile, The Who were an up-and-coming R&B cover band consisting of frontman Roger Daltry, guitarist Pete Townshend, bassist John Entwistle, and an indefinite replacement for previous drummer Doug Sandom, who was normally the peacekeeper in the band. Townshend discussed in a 1975 interview how Moon auditioned for the band, and was taken aback by his appearance, saying,
“Keith Moon rolled up one day, ginger all over – ginger shoes, ginger corduroy trousers, ginger jacket, and his hair died ginger, holding a glass of brown ale – this complete ginger vision.”
“[He’d come] up and say, ‘I can play better than him.’ [He was] this horrible impudent…got up on the drummer’s drum kit, and practically smashed it to pieces.”
“We thought, ‘This is the man for us,’” he’d say.
As mentioned in the 2014 book Rockin’ In Time, Moon was quoted with explaining the experience in further detail, saying,
“I got behind this other guy's drums and did one song, 'Roa

#blink182 #Janine Lindemulder

I cite my sources and they may differ than other people's accounts, so I don't guarantee the actual accuracy of my videos.

To some she’s best known as the nurse on the cover of Blink 182’s third album Enema of the State, to others she was already known as an adult film actress. But whatever happened to the woman on the front cover of blink 182’s 3rd record. That’s what we’re going to explore in today’s video.

Janine Lindemulder was the woman who appeared as the nurse on Blink 182’s third album. Prior to appearing on the album in college she was a softball player who even got a scholar ship offer, but ended up answering a modelling ad which eventually led her to posing in adult men’s magazine penthouse in 1987 where she was named pet of the month and would appear in the magazine several more times during her career. It would eventually lead to her enering the adult film industry in the early 90’s becoming well established in the industry. She would marry her first husband in 1988 a construction worker who she would end up having a son with. They would subsequently divorce in 1996. The following year she would appear in howard stern’s movie private parts playing the camp counsellor’s wife. In 1998 she would be filmed having sex with motley crue frontman vince neil. It would make loudersound’s list of worst rockstar sex tapes at the number 2 spot. In 1999 she would appearing on the front cover of blink 182’s third record enema of the state and in the video for what’s my again.

When it came to the artwork for the album the band always envisioned having a nurse on the front cover. IT was just a matter of picking the best woman to be on the album sleeve. The band’s record label MCA gave the trio a stack of photos of potential cover models to look through. THe women in the stack of photos were mostly from playboy and vivid entertainment. The band decided on adult actress janine lindamulder, but unbeknownst to the members they didn’t know she worked in the adult film industry. Linamulder would appear on the cover in a nurses outfit putting on a glove with the band members semi nude in the back of the cover. Lindamulder would also appear in the videos for what’s my age again and man overboard.

The photographer for the album David Goldman,would talk to Huffington Post where he admitted he wasn’t familiar with the band before getting the job going on to say. "Up until the very last minute, the album was going to be called Turn Your Head and Cough," And that's why I came up with the idea of the glove. Obviously an enema is not really a glove type of thing. I thought it was a good visual."

There would be three different versions of the cover art. The first pressing of the album showed Lindemulder wearing a nurse’s hat with a red cross and the band’s name spelled with a capital B in the band’s logo. The second pressing of the artwork still had the red cross but had a lower case B in the band’s name as the band preferred that and finally the third pressing had the red cross removed.

In 2013 a fan posted on the group’s subreddit celebrating the anniversary of Enema of the State.
Band member Mark Hoppus dropped by the subreddit to share some info on the album’s artwork saying

“We were then contacted by the Red Cross that, as we are in no way a medical organization (which I would debate. one time I changed a band-aid), we should not have a red cross on our artwork. If we continued using the red cross logo, we would be in violation of the Geneva Convention. (for real).

“Thus, the third iteration of the artwork: no red cross, lower case b blink-182.”

The band according to the American Red Cross was in violation of section 55 of the 1949 geneva convention that states no one other organization, public or private can use the red cross symbol other than the red cross or red crescent

It was shortly after appearing on enema of the state’s cover that she announced her retirement from the industry opting to focus on raising her son and wanting to become a school teacher. In 2002 she would end up marrying west coast choppers founder Jesse James with whom she had a very tumultuous relationship with that was full of c

#theverve #richardashcroft

I cite my sources and they may differ than other people's accounts, so I don't guarantee the actual accuracy of my videos.

montages or remember from the late 90’s nike commercial the British band the Verve’s tumultuous history is full of ego, litigation, drug addiction, in-fighting and bad luck. To some outside the UK, the Verve were simply a one hit wonder, but was that case? Today, let’s take a look at the volatile history of the Verve

Rolling Stone

Early Life

Hailing from the english town of Wigan located in the greater Manchester Area, town was Economically depressed. The Verve frontman Richard Aschroft was no fan of his hometown telling the alternative press "If I hadn't made the decision to be in a band looking back on what was on offer in that town, it's a quite frightening prospect,"

The son of a part-time clerical worker and hairdresser mother, Ashcroft’s family didn’t have much money and struggled to make ends meet. Ashcroft couldn’t afford to buy albums so instead he taped songs from the radio and rifled through his parents record collections made up mostly of Pink Floyd and Beatles albums. Ashcroft would go through a few phases in his life first wanting to be a footballer dreaming of playing for manchester united. He would eventually change his dream to be a rockstar after witnessing a live gig by The Stone Roses. Side note guys i’ve done a whole video on the stone roses career the link is down below. Ashcroft would tell Select Magazine"Seeing them play Warrington in 1989 basically changed my life," "These guys looked and dressed like me and they were from the same background, yet they were on-stage, being adored. Seeing them made me realize that I could do that as well. I could do better."

But Ashcroft didn’t have a lot of supporters in his dream or had to deal with obstacles in his life. He would tell a career councillor that he wanted to be a rockstar only to be offered a position as a lifeguard. On top of that he was told by a doctor prior to becoming a teenager that he had the lung capacity of a collapsed flea with the doctor telling him he would likely have a cold for the rest of his life. . It did little to dampen his spirits as his mother would reveal her son was cocky from a young age with one schoolmate of his telling select magazine he was nicknamed Jesus because he loved being the center of attention. Ashcroft would admit to Spin Magazine he knew he was destined to be a rockstar adding “ i could sing the lord’s f**** prayer when i was five years old so I knew.”

It was at the age of 11 Ashcroft’s father would pass away from a brain hemorrhage that was the result of a dormant brain clot that eventually expanded. The tragic event would change his outlook on life with him telling melody maker in 1993.

“My father died when I was really young. He'd worked nine to five all his life, and he suffered and got nowhere. And I was 11 at the time and I immediately realized that this wasn't the life for me. Immediately I found out how quickly someone can die just be wiped out. So I thought, F*** this, I'm gonna do something positive, I can do something positive, I can do something great, I'm gonna make something of myself.' He would add how the event resulted in him losing some of his innocence in life telling select magazine "Other kids were playing with their Action Men and I was questioning life and society,"

Ashcroft’s mother would remarry and he would soon fell under the influence of his step father who was a big believer in a 17th and 18th century movement named rosicrucanism (rosie- crushianism)"Select magazine would write about his step father and i quote “Richard firmly believed his step dad could bend light rays around people to make them disappear, or raise the temperature in the room by thought alone.” Ashcroft who was still coming to terms with the death of his father and figuring out adding "It's difficult for people to understand that – they doubt it, calling you a lunatic,

Queens-based Kool G Rap & DJ Polo left one of the most impressive rap discographies in their wake. Though Kool G Rap's growth as an MC from their first single in 1986 to their final album in 1992 was considerable, the duo started off running and never looked back. The pair never had the large profile enjoyed by others in Marley Marl's extended family (including Big Daddy Kane, Biz Markie, and Roxanne Shanté), but aftershocks continue to be felt throughout the East Coast, from the Notorious B.I.G. to Nas to Wu-Tang Clan to the underground scene.

When their first single, 1986's "I'm Fly"/"It's a Demo," was released on Cold Chillin', G Rap was already a formidable MC who could boast with the best of them. However, it would be narratives that he would become most known for, in addition to some of the raunchiest rhymes hip-hop has ever known. Throughout the years, Marley Marl, Large Professor, and Sir Jinx provided valuable production assistance. The duo released the formative "I'm Fly"/"It's a Demo" in 1986, but G Rap (born Nathaniel Wilson) truly broke out on the Juice Crew's "The Symphony," a group cut of great legend produced by Marley Marl that also included turns from Masta Ace, Craig G., and Big Daddy Kane. After a good deal of anticipation was built for the first Kool G Rap & DJ Polo album, Road to the Riches saw the light of day in 1989. Produced by Marl and released on his Cold Chillin' label, the album included a handful of timeless moments while alluding to greater potential.That potential was fulfilled with the following year's Wanted: Dead or Alive. Marley Marl remained partly responsible for the duo's sound, while Main Source's Large Professor and Eric B. also pitched in with production work. On this album, G Rap became an MC of top caliber; he expanded his range as a magnificent storyteller on tracks like "Streets of New York" (a number three rap single) and "Wanted: Dead or Alive." Released in 1992, Live and Let Die landed the duo in a bit of hot water; its cover, depicting the duo feeding meat to rabid dogs in front of two restrained white men, gained a fair amount of attention in the press. The controversy played a role in shooting the album up to the Top 20 of the R&B/hip-hop albums chart, but the attention unfortunately waned. Just as accomplished as Wanted: Dead or Alive (if not more so), the album featured the sympathetic handiwork of Sir Jinx and Trakmasterz and helped bring G Rap's increasingly profane and vivid tales to extreme levels.

G Rap and Polo went their separate ways shortly after that. G Rap put out three albums between the mid-'90s and early '00s, while Polo cut a single with Ice-T and porn star Ron Jeremy. Landspeed kept the duo's legacy alive through a low-key reissue campaign; in 2000 and 2001, separate releases combined the first two albums and anthologized their entire career together.

LYRICS

Now and then I think of when we were together
Like when you said you felt so happy you could die
Told myself that you were right for me
But felt so lonely in your company
But that was love and it's an ache I still remember

You can get addicted to a certain kind of sadness
Like resignation to the end
Always the end
So when we found that we could not make sense
Well you said that we would still be friends
But I'll admit that I was glad that it was over

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened
And that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger
And that feels so rough
You didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records
And then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

Now and then I think of all the times you screwed me over
But had me believing it was always something that I'd done
And I don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let it go
And I wouldn't catch you hung up on somebody that you used to know...

But you didn't have to cut me off
Make out like it never happened
And that we were nothing
And I don't even need your love
But you treat me like a stranger
And that feels so rough
You didn't have to stoop so low
Have your friends collect your records
And then change your number
I guess that I don't need that though
Now you're just somebody that I used to know

I used to know
That I used to know

Somebody...
