ReplyDeleteI think this was my favorite Todd era--he looked so good, his music was so poetic and beautiful. Not into the violent bitter songs that came later.
I wish Rockpalast would release their Ra footage-I missed that tour, and I'm thinking that the Ra set may be a bit much for RR B-Day bash 2011....
ReplyDeleteAddressing anyone who feels like
ReplyDeleteAnonymous ABOVE. Seems an odd perspective. Everyone is welcome to
their opinion ~ The reasoning is faulty at best.Hiroshima might be misconstrued as a violent bitter song. Strikes me as very purposful
and beautiful, as it's an artistic expression of horror & warning. It comes from this era when 'he looked
so good'. We're all maturedsince 78
physically. Todd has never lost his mental edge or poetic approach.
His output may scan better if seen as novels. Well drawn charicters & aspects of life's experience. The over-riding sense of all TR music is HOPE. Last Ride - Sons of 1984
Tables Will Turn - Womans' World
AND more humor throughout to balance the abrasive. After all he's only human & it don't help to panic !
