"Anything by Todd Rundgren, he's in a class by himself on this topic.
But I am ecstatic to see the mention of Adam Schmitt up above.
Any lovers of power pop generally, and of Tommy Keene especially, need to hear his 3 records.

Quinn M. replied to Jon Bard's discussion What's Your Opinion: Can music really change people's attitudes?"One important distinction to make is the point of view of a given lyric. For example, one artist might tell stories of life on the streets as a sympathetic observer, like a journalist might and the message is very different than someone else…"
Quinn M. replied to Jon Bard's discussion What's Your Opinion: Can music really change people's attitudes?"Agreed. And I think in many cases, sound becomes kind of a synonym for attitude."
Quinn M. replied to Jon Bard's discussion What's Your Opinion: Can music really change people's attitudes?"I strongly support the First Amendement and oppose censorship.

He PERFORMED with the remaining Monkees, something I swear he said he would never do again after the '80s. It is baffling. As for the meeting, he was so gracious and answered…"

So Mike Nesmith. Yeah. WTF, right? Private, reclusive, mysterious for many years. A couple of years back, he got on Facebook and he posts long, winding tales about himself, his dogs, his home, his past, and a really lovely Mother's Day post last weekend. Photos go up. The whole thing. It's like he disappeared and then came back on his own terms. I didn't know how to take it. I'm a huge Monkees fan, no doubt. And, being a woman/girl of a certain age, I have a favorite and that favorite is Mike.…See More
