Everyone knows Hunter S. Thompson was the biz
If you havn't read the Kingdom Of Fear or any other of his novels please please do. This dude hung out with the hells angels and was a straight up badass who started his own genre of journalism.
When he was 18 he wrote this letter to the New York Times..
"OPEN LETTER TO THE YOUTH OF OUR NATION”
by Hunter S. Thompson, 1955, Louisville
Young people of America, awake from your slumber of indolence and harken the call of the future! Do you realize that you are rapidly becoming a doomed generation? Do you realize that the fate of the world and of generations to come rests on your shoulders? Do you realize that at any time you may be called on to protect your country and the freedom of the world from the creeping scourge of Communism? How can you possibly laugh in the face of the disasters which face us from all sides? Oh ignorant youth, the world is not a joyous place. The time has come for you to dispense with the frivolous pleasures of childhood and get down to honest toil until you are 65. Then and only then can you relax and collect your social security and live happily until the time of your death. …
--Fearfully and disgustedly yours,
John J. Righteous-Hypocrite.

Captain Beefheart- Safe as milk.
I thought this album had a lyric that went 'Buffalo Boner Showin'
It doesn't... but it would probably really the only thing that could make this thing better.
1967 blues based rock that jams out abit in the end. A little for everyone here but still really continual and great from start to finish. Features A song called Autumn's Child that has a section that Tame Impala most certainly directly lifted. Only its way better than anything they have done. Ol' Captain also has one of the best/funniest voices ever in the western world.
