Last Days Here
[distorted guitar ringing]
[feedback whining]
[gentle orchestral music]
[metal jingling]
- [muttering indistinctly]
Everything I have in here
you see is one of a kind
This stuff's all chiffon stuff
This stuff's my fancy stuff
I bought these in 1 967
and they're still brand-new
They got great big==
they're low hip-huggers right?
They come down here
And they got great big bells
on 'em man
These are nice leather ones
They're real soft
Feel the leather on those
They're soft
They feel good don't they?
I like a lot of paisley sh*t
you know
I still got a lot
of paisley sh*t
and it's all in
perfect condition
These are all
my stage clothes
and I only wore these like
once in a while
because when I used to play
I was saving them
for when I got big
And that never happened
so I saved 'em forever
- So what are his prospects?
Because he keeps giving me
these rosy scenarios
and I don't know
what to believe you know?
- What does he tell you
specifically?
- Well like one thing
I know is a delusion
is that he's going in
the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame
this year or next
[laughs]
I like him to have a dream
though you know?
If he didn't have a dream
he's liable to kill himself
- Are you really gonna do this
as a documentary?
I could go out and play
- I get nervous
You know what I mean?
- Hmm?
- I get nervous that
- Everybody does
He does
That's okay
I won't
If you guys want me around
I'll stick around
- Please
- If you really do
I mean that in my heart
I mean if you want me around
I'll stick around
For just guys like you guys
[birds chirping]
- I was at a record show
with my girlfriend
and um I found like this==
all this rare stuff
that I totally wanted
And then I was just looking
through one last bin
and I saw the original
Pentagram record
It was just a purple logo
against black
It kind of looks like garbage
on the front
You turn it around
and there's this like
scary-ass picture of the band
I was with my girlfriend
at the time
and we were just like
crazy record collectors
and just go blow all our money
on records and beer
and then just have like
Friday and Saturday night
listening to records
[hard rock music]
Man as soon as we put that
on the turntable
that's like nothing
I'd heard before
Really I mean it was just
so f***ing heavy
This was the only Pentagram
that was released
and the only one I knew of
I thought this was the beginning
of Pentagram
I was working
and I was telling everybody
about it that I knew
and someone said
"Oh yeah man
"I get stuff no one's even
heard about before
from the '70s
heavy hard rock"
[music slows to a stop]
I was like
"Come on how can this be?"
I was obsessed with this band
So he brings in this CD-R
Here it is man
a record that literally
changed my life
I couldn't wait you know
just to get out of work
and go home and listen to it
At that point
I was riding a bike to work
and I remember just riding home
as fast as I could you know?
Just like a little kid
from school
I rolled a joint==
it was a special occasion
I rolled a big joint
[lively drumbeat]
And that first song
Forever My Queen,
I mean
just f***ing phenomenal
[heavy metal music]
- I'm running away
with myself
I think I ran
a little too far
Your love is more than
a tease
- I couldn't believe it
Some of the best hard rock
I've ever heard
I mean lyrically
his vocal delivery
Just the guitar in it
was out of control
I mean for the early '70s
I couldn't believe it
And mostly
not only was it brilliant
but aside from that why doesn't
everyone talk about it?
What's the equivalent
of hearing something like this
for someone who's just obsessed
by music?
It's a profession and their
passion and their private life
It'sit's hard to explain
It's literally like being
a devout Christian
and walking down the street
one day and bumping into Jesus
and he knows your name
and shakes your hand
and asks you over for dinner
and drinks
[laughs]
You know?
And he calls you on the weekends
to go out
I mean
l==I can't explain it
My whole life I've just been
obsessed by music
It's all I wanted to do
with my life
And the only things
that made me truly happy
were finding
an awesome record
I was just completely driven
and obsessed
I mean I was completely
in love
and I just couldn't wait
to make other people
fall in love with this
- Willing and we both
know how
Baby you're gonna be
my queen
A king always knows
what he means
- It was the perfect time for
Bobby Liebling and Pentagram
to kind of==
to be rediscovered
I wouldn't even say
they were a cult band
They were kind of a secret
at that point
But then there was
all this interest
in early '70s hard rock
There was a big
stoner-rock thing
There were a lot of bands
that just wanted to get
that early '70s sound
and then get back to the basics
in metal
All of a sudden
there's this band
Oh you know
they have unlimited number
of unreleased recordings
from the 1 970s
and there hasn't been like
years and years
of over-merchandising
or marketing
or anything like that
It was just like
this caveman found you know
frozen in the Swiss Alps
somewhere
that you cut out the block
of ice and bring it out
and there's a specimen there
Bobby Liebling is still
that frozen guy
[song ends]
[birds chirping]
- If you see anything that says
Pentagram like
Liebling Pentagram
blah-blah-blah project
or any of that on the CDs
we will find find for you guys
'cause you must hear this
This is more important to me
than any other sh*t
That's why you must hear
the stuff
[heavy metal music]
# You are the highway star #
Hey world premiere!
VH1 in the trash heap
[scoffs]
# Oh, take me away #
# I want to do it, baby #
Oh man I know I'll play again
I can't help it
Look I'm addicted
You know it's like heroin
I can get up there
and rock with the best of 'em
Cool E right here
# Wrapping your soul out
on evil #
[guitar solo soars]
[music continues in background]
- I thought he was very good
when he was younger
I don't==you know I didn't go
to many of his shows
I didn't want to make him
uncomfortable
but he did have a==
Would you please get
[speaks indistinctly]
Thank you
Excuse me
No not just as a mother
I was very critical of him
But I thought he had a==
just a natural instinct
to perform
And you couldn't stop him
even if we wanted to you know?
It was sort of inborn
- Far superior than
some of these real big bands
that I've seen
Big guys
that are making millions
[heavy metal music]
- Have you ever done anything
else besides rock and roll?
- Nothin'
Yeah this==
drugs
Sex drugs
rock and roll
Well I mean look at me
You know I'm an old soldier
right?
I've been doing drugs
I've been addicted to heroin
for 39
I've been addicted to crack
