[@mikespencer3518]

Patti was an unseen force in the seventies. Not even punk. There was punk but she was a romantic of theatre and rock. A poet and almost Morrison style. Her tempos changed with her back up band. Lots of furious Gibsons rhythm and crescendos. Lots of playful rock. She was a rocker in the sense that it blindly took her to heights of rock ecstasy. kind of a hero in my books when there was lots of mainstream AOR FM playing Eagles, Jackson Brown, etc. and new founds like Foreigner and Cars. Even in her movements of music you can tell she committed to her art long ago. She was no dancer, not pretty, not the best voice, but she damn had the heart to break out and make a people knew there was something out there that she and we liked. my peace. bless all during this pandemic.

*@Michael Szymanski* Might it be that you failed to search out other bands......? Besides Smith ,there were plenty bands that made the early to mid 70's livable ,Bowie , Roxy Music ,Brian Eno , Todd Rundgren , Early Aerosmith ,Blue Öyster Cult ,Iggy Pop, Sparks, Ian Hunter ,Joe Walsh , Lou Reed , Early Queen , Man , Zappa, Beefheart , Robert Wyatt , Joni Mitchell ,Ron Wood , New York Dolls , The Pretty Things , even The Stones were still interesting . Bytheway....the first Boston album had some great songs ; later admittedly mediocrity set in .

Original Punk Rock Queen

[@leesal.8999]

Yeah, a cover in the end but she owns it! Possibly the poem is entertaining the thoughts she has about a gloria. She plays with her hair which is a very unusual effeminant and uncharacteristic move for Patty. She was hooked up with the Boss , Bruce Springstein when I was introduced to her. She did a great duet with Springstein and she immortalized his tune because the night. Then it was wierd, I lost touch with her , her music as if I was strangely not needing the punk . However, years later , when punk took a right turn, into a quasi- punk sound and absent was the true appearance and style held together by punk rock a few safety pins, I faded away . After the shit hit the fan with the Sex Pistols , sometime after , I found myself in a wreck of a relationship with this dude who constantly played 80's big hair mostly American rock music I was actually arguing with him about the the superficial, top 40 shit that the record companies forced almost all the bands into via their contracts all for the love of money , music became a commodity of a spaghetti sound in a bowl flung against the wall hoping most if it would stick to the wall! He was thoroughly confused. So, to prove my point , I remeber forgetting Patti' name if you can believe this. Pondered it for a week or so and even after the fact of me mobing on to a more copecetic relationship, I drove my ads over a half a state away with Ms Smiths music and a few other jewels of my past punk life ( now in the renewal phase because once punked, that shit never really leaves you ) I knocked on his door with a great bottle of wine and some party favors and popped in a CD I created with the best punk music ever and of course the headliner was the original punk queen herself. This combined with the great sex and a spaghetti dinner changed his dull life forever. Punk music is equal to the rap music movement of today. It's raw naked outrageous approach either turns you into someone you ever knew existed or you run away screaming down the road both emptions are completely misunderstood to this day. I guess it's fair to say you had to be there.peace

[@user-oh4yd5uh4e]

A windscreen wiper (Commonwealth English) or windshield wiper (American English) is a device used to remove rain, snow, ice, washer fluid, water, or debris from a vehicle's front window. Almost all motor vehicles, including cars, trucks, buses, train locomotives, and watercraft with a cabin-and some aircraft-are equipped with one or more such wipers, which are usually a legal requirement. A wiper generally consists of a metal arm; one end pivots, and the other end has a long rubber blade attached to it. The arm is powered by a motor, often an electric motor, although pneumatic power is also used for some vehicles. The blade is swung back and forth over the glass, pushing water, other precipitation, or any other impediments to visibility from its surface. The speed is usually adjustable on vehicles made after 1969, with several continuous rates and often one or more intermittent settings. Most personal automobiles use two synchronized radial-type arms, while many commercial vehicles use one or more pantograph arms.

wanted to visit the gig but was too young-13- so I watched rockpalast at night on TV realtime I always loved PATTI for her lyrics, her enormous strenght and power and her TOTAL dedication to music and her kind of art

Saw this in my youth live on German TV. "Rockpalast Night" was a big event then once a year. Patti Smiths concert caused some controversy but she blew me away.
