Kids today don't know what they missed in the 1970's. Music today is meaningless drivel by people who can't sing.

Did MYKE or someone say he is 59? Damn, doesn't look a day over 75.

I have never in my life heard Black Oak Arkansas..... OMFG Haha. Apparently that's where Dave Lee Roth got his inspiration. A more recent pic.

I honestly thought he died like ten years ago. I guess it is nice to know he still lives, kinda.

It's anagram time.
BLACK OAK ARKANSAS = A LOAD OF BOLLOCKS JIM DANDY, LEAD VOCALS = VOMIT A SAD JEDI BABY MYKE AND CHRYS = CHRIST, IT'S THE KKK.

Even her own remake (done to cash in on the Batcraze of 1966) is better than the limp 70's retread by Mr. Zucchini and his redneck band.

BOA were so fucking unlistenable. My redneck-ish hoodlum friends would get pissed off to the point of wanting to fist-fight whenever I started making fun of that vomitous singer and kazoo-sounding guitarist. And that skank who screeched "Go Jim Dandy"... And THIS got played repeatedly, with everyone attempting to recite the beginning imitating Jim D.

They have to rank as one of the worst bands of the 70's. It might be the biggest load of shite I've ever heard. Absolutely fucking horrible. Just the kind of redneck bollox Myke and his spanner of a son would love.

Not only were the dreadful, but I can imagine that most of their audience constituted the 'disco sucks' brigade. Bet Myke hated disco.
