Further to rockbotle fantasy band thread, I thought I would combine two of my great passions and build a time machine to take me back to any part of musical history. I can only use it once, and I can only stay for five hours. I'm thinking of going to the session when the Beatles added the tape loops to "Tomorrow never knows". What do you all think?
Keep your appendages in the machine, and don't step on any butterflies.

Mr. Peabody, I wanna go back to catch the Million Dollar Quartet. Ya know, when cheap old Sam Phillips got Elvis, Jerry Lee, Carl Perkins and Johnny Cash together to record some throwaway stuff. I need to see how accurate the Drive-By Truckers song "Carl Perkins' Cadillac" is, Mr. Peabody, and please don't give me any crummy spoonerisms to kill my post!

Time travel is a serious responsibility; only Megatron possesses the wisdom to traverse time and space.
I will set the controls for Muswell Hill, England, 1963, when 16 year old Dave Davies got so fed up with the sound coming out of his little green amp that he slashed its speaker with a razor blade, creating the most unholy noise ever unleashed upon planet Earth, giving birth to punk, metal and the dirtiest rock ‘n roll since Ike Turner.
While I am in 1960s England, Megatron promises to sabotage all of young Rick Wakeman’s keyboards, thereby saving save mankind from "The Myths and Legends of King Arthur and the Knights of the Round Table".
Despite Megatron's warnings (oh..the humility!) I will take the Wayback machine to London circa 1977. I'd like to see the punk movement and the British culture wars in full swing.

I think I'm startin' to like "Lord Megatron", but I still think an enema will do him a large amount of GOOD!

I never did like that pretender to the throne of Keith Emerson...

Hush now kiddies. No fighting in the reception area. I don't wanna have to tell you again. Take it outside. Lord Maggietron we must compare notes. Meet me at the "Thief of time" by Robert Sheckly.
And must I remind you of the rules. Only one trip,five hours.
