just wear a sign that says: "No Tastes"
Ramones are a great pop guitar band but the Stooges are in another stratosphere. The first album alone puts them among the all time greats.

I do kinda think so.
Or at least that these two bands evoke the same kind of feeling in me.

They don't play the same kind of music though


Also, I just used that "someone is the Beatles of something" expression, because I thought it's a fairly commonly used one

my tastes are all over the place within the umbrella of Rock and I've posted about everything from Genesis, Pink Floyd and Radiohead to DNA and Branca , to totally honky tonk Carl Perkins and Roy Orbison

I own records from Tuxedomoon, Fred Frith, and Snakefinger

I've posted extensively about Krautrock and Industrial

but I'm also a huge power pop fan and Alex Chilton devotee

given all that I do have to say I don't really care about music or consider myself attached to the idea of being a "music guy"

I just want to crank up some Devo

Had a chance to see them back in the day shortly before Poly Styrene died but I didn't I didn't really know who they were and hadn't listened to them and now it haunts me.
