Free music marketing. When you do a search for “free Music” or “free music downloads you don’t get any “free music” It’s all about radio. Last FM consistantly comes up #1 on in a google search… That is internet radio. Then it’s GrooveShark, Pandora Radio ETC.
These systems look and seem to work pretty good. But my goal is to get MY music heard. You know, little ole ME.
Not that the music I have done with different bands is any good or anything. But I’d like to get noticed anyhow… You dig? Heck, I wanna record contract and make millions of dollar too…. What garage band musician doesn’t?
Using basic make money online for beginners methods taught by this Grizz guy who I was introduced to by another blogger who teaches passive online income I have started a SEO campagn to try to drive traffic to my free music site.
To get “Free Music” hi on the search engine rankings could prove to be a impossible task. But what’s a mediocra song writer supposed to do? Except sing for a rock and roll band? I just gotta take on the challenge.
I’ll fill all you loyal Hip Opinion readers in later about how it’s going and let you look at the projects I have put together to try to get this agenda going.
Until Later… Happy Labor Day!

I have always thought that Magical Mystery Tour could have been recorded in the garage somewhere… Or some of it anyways… It’s not all that great of a recording. Even though it is a great record over all…
George Martin has been hailed as such a great producer…And he was…But there are many other records from this period that have as good or better recordings. The song “magical mystery tour” is paticarly noisy and muddy.
I remember back when the early Beatles CD’s first came out… They were all released in mono… To preserve the “original” recordings… They “fake stereo” vinyl records sound better.
Anyways, Magical has some magical music on it… I like the song “flying“… It is the picture of 60’s psychedelia… Love that trippy guitar.
The string arangements on “I am the Walarus” has to be the best in rock and roll. And that saxaphone (I think) playing on “Baby im a Rich Man” is the most bizarre horn part I have ever heard. That is Brian Jones of the Rolling Stones playing that… Miss that guy.
Other Highlighs
- Hello Goodbuy – Great guitar line and simple lyrical message.
- Your Mother Should Know – Dance to a song before your mother was born
- Strawberry Fields Forever – Maybe the best John lennon Song ever.
I am here as you are here as we are all together – John Lennon

Pink Floyd is one of my favorite bands… I can trip on acid to almost any of their records all they way back to the beginning. If I tripped on acid 😉
They were the first to really do the “space sound” You know what I mean?
They are the poster children of Acid Music. Right? But were they actually acid junkies? Somebody recently was telling me that Roger Waters says he rarely ever took acid… He just enjoyed having a few beers…Wow… I thought it took acid to actually influence them to come up with that spacey sound.
Which perhaps leads me to another post for tomorrow (or sometime)

There is always a debate as who is the best of something… I used to do this a lot over the years as a kid.
So who is the best drummer who ever lived? How can we know when there are so many awesome drummers out there.
Favorites Drummers
That must be because they played in some of my favorite bands huh?
There are many other drummers that are either just as good or “underrated“…
So, who is the best drummer who ever lived?

She sure has a nice smile… She really looks good on the camera huh? Now, I guess she had some limited success with those looks and stuff in the beginning. But then that big producer guy saw one of here videos and liked what he saw… Robert “Mutt” Lang. He brought here into the studio and produced pure magic…That smile and his production and musicians… We can take on the world…
Guess they are broke up now… Mutt Cheated.
All is fair in love and war… At least she can afford an excellent lawyer…

Brian Jones was one talented cat. Those early Stones songs are my personal favorite from Mick and the boys. I assumed he simply died of to much pleasure of the brain induced by drugs like all the rest of those rock and roll addicts.
After seeing the movie “Stoned” it brings up new ideas…That the guy that worked for him after he was fired from the stones killed him. According to the movie this Brian drove this guy to the edge with crazy mind games of sex and inferiority… I dunno… Wacky stuff…
That movie was kinda weak anyways…
