By the end of the great war,
|
the dandy warhols had progressed
|
far beyond the traditional jug band sound.
|
Zia had all but hung up the washtub bass,
|
in favor of her new invention, which she called the synthesizer.
|
The banjo was still there but now it was electrified,
|
to a flat microphone which pete had wound tightly with copper wire and
|
called his pick-up and in turn made it louder by what fat-head jokingly
|
called, Pete's Amp.
|
Well, the name stuck and by the time such luminaries as Gene Vincent, Elvis
|
Presley and B.B. King had heard this new Warhols Sound, they were calling it
|
Rock and Roll.
|
Dandy frontman Courtney Taylor-Taylor would be quoted as saying, I know it's
|
only rock and roll, but i think i like it
|
I'm Bill Curtis and you're listening to a piece of history
