JSngry Posted December 28, 2012 Report Share Posted December 28, 2012 (edited) That first Mothers Of Invention aggregation...geez, talk about a bunch of guys who had no idea where it was going to end up and going ahead and going there anyway. Good luck on anything like that happening again any time soon. Ray Collins, Roy Estrada, Jimmy Carl Black, Motorhead Sherwood...basically a bunch of doo-woppers, and look at what they ended up doing. RIP, and thanks. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aqn7dZrLfrc . Edited December 28, 2012 by JSngry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
