Everett True
Can
Song of the day – 29: Can (greatest rock’n’roll song ever recorded)
I habitually have to be reminded how much I rate this group – merely because I never heard them first time around. Odd, because I was certainly aware of their influence.
This time, I came back to them via The Fall. But there are SO MANY groups their experimental, insidious, motorik beat influenced. Care to name a few?
Tip of the hat to Frances Morgan for reminding me how much I love this song.

My name is Everett True. I am a music critic. This is what I do. I criticise music.
The clue is in my job description – music critic. I do not consider myself a journalist, as I do not research or report hard news. I do not consider myself a commentator as I believe that everyone should be a participant. I criticise people and in return I am not surprised if other people criticise me. It is part of the whole deal of being in the public arena.
I am Everett True. Believe in me and I have power like a God. Quit believing in me and I no longer exist.
