Schizmogenesis With Dr. Hans Utter
Manage episode 321199724 series 3320242
Dr. Hans Utter is a classically trained sitarist, wicked guitarist and deep researcher into the dark roots of music and programming associated with the music world from the 50's, 60's and 70's. He makes a great point about the day the music died, when Buddy Holly, Richie Valens and The Big Bopper died in a plane crash just outside of Mason, Iowa. Chuck Berry goes to jail, Jerry Lee Lewis is banned just about everywhere and Elvis joins the army.
Folk music, the pre-fab soundtrack for the protest movement is born and along with it, the new, counter-culture hero, Bob Dylan.
The Brill Building moves west and then it's Beatles time, groups versus individual stars and Aquarian vibes wash ashore, along with medical grade LSD, Ken Kesey, Tim Leary, The Dead, Zappa, The Doors, The Stones and finally Altamont.
If you want a serious download on the military and intelligence side of the 60's, this is your deep listen.
