Video for "Take Me Down"
Sunday, 10 February 2008

Well, as the release of Pop Down The Years approaches, I keep thinking about ways to share the music ... in hopes you will buy a copy on iTunes, or wherever! Here is a video I made from a horrendously bad - you know the kind that's so bad it's good - sci-fi movie from the sixties, probably financed by dentists in hopes they could bang a hot actress or two ...

See it on the front page or in the video section ... or ... sodden thought ... here:

On Sensation and Elation

This site is, for the most part, a drug-and-booze-free zone. It is also a guru-free zone. Knox grew up in the sixties, a fourth-generation West Coast lad, and came of age in the seventies.

He partook freely in the pursuit of sensation and elation through much of those decades and beyond and has, unfortunately, seen far too many of those closest to him fall into the abyss, too often with fatal consequences. Suicides, overdoses, car crashes, all manners of drug and booze related death has Knox witnessed close at hand. Knox himself has been booze and drug free for seventeen years.

For those of you who still buy into the romantic notion that creativity comes from drugs and/or booze, Knox suggests you listen to the Jefferson Airplane's Surrealistic Pillow, one of the most musical and sexy and romantic (manifesting the naive and wonderful optimism that was once so identified with the West Coast) albums to come out of the golden era of pop music, and then listen to their Bless Its Pointed Little Head album, a cocaine-and-booze-fueled barrage of live drivel from three years later. If that doesn't demonstrate the fallacy of drugs/booze=creativity and musicality, write Knox and he'll send you some more examples.

But be assured that Knox is not anti-drug. Knox is, however, pro-sobriety. Knox has no problem with earth-people getting drunk or high or whatever it is they do on occasion.

Knox is not preaching: please feel free to use any of the drugs he somehow missed in the old days, as well as any booze he failed to drink.

Put on some music! Have a glass of wine.
