Comment:
The Holy Trinity of the early 1970's:
The Father - Lou Reed, inspiration for a generation of punks, new wavers and wannabes.
The Son - David Bowie, spread the word of the Father and made the world his Queen Bitch
The Holy Ghost - Iggy Pop, mysterious and self-mutilating, blessing the rest with his half-naked truths.
Or if you prefer, The Glam Pack: Lou as Frank, Bowie as Dean-o and Iggy as Sammy. Either way, these three gentlemen kicked serious ass and took names.
Cover by Mick Rock - the first thing Bowie said to him was, "I like your name."
Ian Hunter & Mott the Hoople are the Joey Bishop to the Glam Pack; Roxy Music were the English Velvet Underground; Marc Bolan and T. Rex as themselves.
"...and it was alright, the band was all together..."

Feedback:
You've certainly got an imagination, and for that, I give you credit.
AMEN!!!!!
DAMN! That was the exact picture and trio I thought of! PERFECT!! I wouldn't have thought to add the T-Rex, Roxy and Hoople picks, but they make for a great accent! It brings a tear to my eye!!!
"The Glam Pack!" Perfect Joe. Nice of Iggy to don a T. Rex shirt wasn't it?
Mott the Hoople = Joey Bishop. That is one of the funniest things I've read in a long time. This is a great mix and quite inventive. Great job!
You sir are a force we're just beginning to recognize....., and reckon with. Outstanding job here Joe....
great stuff, Joe! Your package is en-route to you this very monent (well, Wednesday, actually!)
wonderful mix! great selections from truly legendary artists.
it's a shame they didn't all end up making Ocean's 11 ;)
too brilliant for words.
Nice Package!
Hey Vee, awesome stuff hear(here)
legendary!
Amen Brother!
love that guitar in Bowie's 'Andy Warhol' Good job.
Really great. Holy Trinity indeed. Cosmic Dancer into Lady Stardust (both songs about Bolan!) is a sweet closer. I only missed Turn Blue. But choosing Iggy's version of China Girl is so cool it doesn't even matter.
Inspired pairing tripling. Very cool.
All the young skinny dudes! The sprinkling of Roxy & T Rex brings it off with a nice touch.
Why aren't you my friend? Goddamn. From a glampa to a glampacker. Awesome.
HOW DID I MISS THIS? Really really first rate mix!
