Thin Lizzy. Emerald. 1978



Down from the glen came the marching men
With their shields and their swords
To fight the fight they believed to be right
Overthrow the overlords

To the town where there was plenty
They brought plunder, swords and flame
When they left the town was empty
Children would never play again

From their graves I heard the fallen
Above the battle cry
By that bridge near the border
There were many more to die

Then onward over the mountain
And outwards toward the sea
They had come to claim the emerald
Without it they could not leave

The Other Half. Feathered Fish. 1968.



Another Randy Holden project. He played lead in the Other Half before his stint with Blue Cheer. Here's a hot cover of an Arthur Lee tune. He might possibly be the most underrated axe slinger of his era.

The Music Machine. Mother Nature/Father Earth. 1966.



I was in the midst of shredding my calves on the treadmill when this one hit my ear holes. Stop what you're doing, the environment needs our help, dummies.

外道-香り



I really don't know what to call this one... but a comment from YouTube simply says "music video" and it's a fine one at that.
