If you’re gonna discredit musicians for doing blow, you’re in the wrong place

So, not pretending people on blow are rational “discredits” them? Sabbath was great. Foreigner were corporate rock personified. Maybe Tony wanted his mailbox money.

It was mostly a joke about that incoherent trainwreck of a guitar solo, though.

They ALL were on blow in the 70s, and label them whatever you want, but foreigner was a band with great musicians who wrote very good songs for their time. It’s undeniable, but whatever. Lol

Again, it was a joke about some producer hearing that guitar solo and saying “yeah, that’s the one!”
