I’m not sure there’s a greater music video than this one of the Edgar Winter Group playing “Frankenstein”:
The description is: “Feel ROCK’s majesty condensed into 10 short minutes.” Here’s the play by play:
ryan: we’re playing music… in the 70s!
ryan: keytar and sax. and that hair
brad: you can’t play BOTH lame instruments! that’s MADNESS!
ryan: oh, and he plays the drums too!
ryan: edgar winter is my new chuck norris.
I think Edgar should have worn a wizard hat.

Purty cool.
A couple of details – one, the guy has a sense of drama. A lame keyboard player would be playing that explosion sound with one finger, but Edgar had the sense to make the playing look like it CALLED for an explosion.
Secondly – anyone can make hideous noise with a synth in their own house. These guys could do it LIVE, and make it ROCK. Check out some other performances – they DON’T play the synth solo the same every time.

This band is do dated they should never be played again. This band sounds like pigs being killed by chainsaws. This is what happens when you take simplistic shit and overproduce it in a studio. Like so much of what the 70s brought us, they should be forgotten.
