The Boots Were Made For Stompin'

c'mon boots, start stompin!
The soundtrack is Destroy All Monsters version of The Boots Were Made For Walking...
One of the epic proto punk performance bands of all time. The Detroit Pop Painter,
Niagara sings, Ron Asheton from the Stooges is the guitarist, Michael Davis from the MC5
is the bass player, Rob King was the drummer. Mike Kelley, the ground breaking American conceptual artist was a member as well as post modernist painter,  Jim Shaw.  Earlier this year, both Mike Kelley and Michael Davis passed away. Ron Asheton died in 2011 while participating in the revival of the Stooges with Iggy Pop and his brother Scott....This was more than music, it was an art work in progress.....

the Nancy Sinatra dance video gets a little monotonous after a while, but then it doesn't get any better with longer versions either. After getting past the 60s hair and clothing, I was taken with the guitar work in the music.

Thanks for another flashback, LOL! I enjoy your aesthetic taste; it always surprises.

Oh Microdot,
You have brought back my testosterone levels of my youth.

Yea those “Go Go” dancing ladies make me think things. But the only thing lacking is the boots should have been white.
