In the mid-1970s, Good Timesmade a star of actor/comedian Jimmy 'JJ'/'Dynomite' Walker. However, behind the scenes, the tension between the stars was relatively challenging.

In a new interview with Jay Jay French Connection, Whitesnake’s Joel Hoekstra discussed the band’s possible future and explained if it is done for good. “That’s obviously gonna come from David [Coverdale],” Hoekstra revealed when asked about the band’s future.” The things kind of got I guess cut short for us on that European run and then the US tour was subsequently canceled and we’ve kind of just been in a holding pattern from there, waiting to see what David’s plans are. I will say, whatever his choice is, David’s done all the work and is a legend. Respectfully I’m a very small piece of the puzzle with that.”

What exactly is garage rock? No, it’s not as simple as rock music recorded in someone’s garage. By definition, the genre can be described as raw rock and roll, particularly the type that became popular in the 1960s. It’s often lo-fi, beachy, and fuzzy with punk or proto-punk elements.
