It is inconceivable that it was made by a Beatle.

Until you realize its McCartney, then it all makes horrible sense.

The pendulum has swung so widely with him in his career. Just astounding.

DON'T LET THE ROBOT DISTRACT YOU FROM THE BOSSTONES BEING THE WORST

(It's pretty OK tbf, if reaching slightly for "that contemporary sound.")

Using Heston logic, shouldn't the Bosstones be better because they have word mighty in their name (twice!)?

And TMMB are newer which Hestonian theory (however flawed and maligned) would seem to dictate they are better by default.

No, because he also pegs 1985-ish as when everything new begins to suck. It' a very intricate theory, you see.

I'm going off the board & changing my vote to these guys:

"Hairball singer dressed as Paul Stanley has his hair caught on fire while performing in Sioux City "

I love the way the guitarist makes a lame attempt to pat it out but decides it's more important to keep the song together.
I'm also impressed that the guy with his hair on fire doesn't seem to miss a beat through the whole ordeal.
Look, you have to establish context for these things. And I maintain that unless you appreciate the Fall of Constantinople, the Great Fire of London, and Mickey Mantle's fatalist alcoholism, live Freddy makes no sense. If you want to half-ass it, fine, go call Simon Schama to do the appendix.

1966-1985, but not The Replacements. KISS is somehow good. What am I missing?

Nirvana is heavy metal. Phil Collins is better than the Supremes.
