    wish I'd seen this interview before I met the man.
    He was rather appalled at my choice for favorite musician of all time.
    Arthur is awesome !

    Arthur Brown was a pioneer. Alice Cooper learned from him, and KISS perfected the formula and became a multimillion dollar hit.

    Fantastic to watch. It mirrors the attitudes, passion and rebellion, we experienced at the beginning of the 'Acid House/Rave' era in 88-89, which was labelled 'The Second Summer of Love'. The Hippy influence was in our clothing, music and how underground nightclubs and outdoor raves were decorated. The original Hippies, like shown in this video, helped shape our lives and the world. "All you need is love". 😉

      The Hippy movement was artistic and socially revolutionary. The Rave scene was nothing of the sort The only thing in common was the extensive use of drugs.
