I don't know anything about them.  I had seen them mentioned and watched a few videos several weeks ago.  Here is a very short clip from SXSW.  Some incident occurred and the venue pulled the plug on them right after that.

Tempted to say this is evidence that drugs are bad for you.  Disorienting.

Wikipedia: "The band is named after a love hotel in Osaka."

I suppose No-Tell Motel was already taken.  :mrgreen:

Music video about America, 1969 - still has a lot of relevance, especially related to drugs.

Alice/Vince never really sang all that well and at 71 he still misses notes like a young man. Charming.  8)

On the other hand, Mark Farner always did sing well.  He would be one of the best examples of someone whose voice hasn't been affected by time.  But for the majority of people out there, that isn't the case.  And if they never really sang very well in the first place, of course that's even more of a problem.

I love ole Alice, his voice is one of a kind, bum notes or not. Mark Farner was in contrast a very good singer, he had a tone that always reminded me of David Byron of Uriah Heep - WILL YOU STOP DROOLIN' MARK! - who in his heyday was also a very good singer (if a bit on the operatic side) - before the drinks caught up with him.



Pity that Rough Diamond went nowhere after that very promising debut. Byron and Clempson were an unlikely but gifted combination.

I agree that David Byron was a little on the operatic side, but that's a good comparison of him and Mark Farner.
