The Sixties was really stupid
Okay, can you expand on that a little bit more why you think the
Sixties were really stupid?
Well, it was the type of merchandising
Americans had this hideous weakness, y'know?
They have this desire to be okay-fun-guys-and-gals
And they haven't come to terms with the reality of the situation
We were not created equal
Some people can do carpentry, some people can do mathematics
Some people are brain surgeons, and some people are winos
And that's the way it is!
And, we're not all the same!
And this concept of one world is when everything blended and
Smoothed out to this mediocre norm, that everybody, uh
Downgrades themselves to be, is stupid
And the Sixties was merchandised to the public at large
My pet theory about the Sixties is, that there is a sinister plot behind it
But I don't wanna dwell upon that
Okay
Okay? They just that the lessons learned in the Sixties about
Merchandising stupidity to the American public on a large scale have been
Used over and over again since that time
"Freak Out!" and "Absolutely Free" influenced a generation
Did they? Didn't sell that much
How they influence a generation? Come on, tell me
That's what my questions says here
But that wasn't a question, that was a statement
Then it was my statement
Looking back over all these years and these records
How do you feel about them now?
About "Freak Out!" and "Absolutely Free"?
Hrm, okay, for something that was done as a four-track-recording twenty years ago
Y'know, I wouldn't sit around listening to them
You don't think that they had any influence on people?
Well, I know, that a lot of people were vastly influenced by them
I've heard horror stories about that
But so what? They weren't released to be influences
They were released as a form of entertainment for people who
Uh, didn't have that type of entertainment before
You once said, listen, now that I'm thirty years old
Now that I'm over the hill I really don't give a shit, I don't care
Now, that you're over forty, any comments?
Said it once, do I need to say it again?
Okay, can you expand on that a little bit more why you think the
Sixties were really stupid?
Well, it was the type of merchandising
Americans had this hideous weakness, y'know?
They have this desire to be okay-fun-guys-and-gals
And they haven't come to terms with the reality of the situation
