He was an Englishman, a political philosopher who lived in the 18th and 19th centuries\u2014and he was, by all measures of his time, a radical.<\/p>\n<p>He was against slavery when it was still very much a thing for the British Empire. He promoted animal welfare. He believed that everyone over a certain age\u2014men and women\u2014should be able to vote. He was against the death penalty. He wanted homosexuality decriminalized, and he advocated for no-fault divorce. These are now the foundations of liberal democracy.<\/p>\n<p>These concepts were not just years but centuries ahead of his time, and none of these changes came into effect until after he died. Jeremy Bentham was far, far ahead of his time.<\/p>\n<p>Ada Lovelace was another one. She is widely recognized as the first-ever computer programmer. Computers didn\u2019t exist when she lived in the early 19th century\u2014heck, there wasn\u2019t even electricity yet\u2014but her notes laid the groundwork for the world of mechanical and electrical thinking machines.<\/p>\n<p>And then, of course, there was Leonardo da Vinci. In the 15th and 16th centuries, he designed concepts for the first parachute, the helicopter, and the tank. He explored human anatomy, astronomy, art, cartography, botany, and even paleontology\u2014centuries before anyone knew that dinosaurs existed.<\/p>\n<p>These people\u2014along with inventor Nikola Tesla, author Jules Verne, and Terry Pratchett (an author who predicted the rise of fake news and disinformation on the internet)\u2014eventually got their due, but only after they died.<\/p>\n<p>Their stories got me thinking: what musicians were so far ahead of their time that they never got credit for their accomplishments at the time? Or how about musicians who still aren\u2019t getting the recognition they deserve for pushing the envelope in the world of rock?<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s just wrong. It\u2019s time to fix that. This program is about musicians who should have been famous for altering the course of music but got no respect at the time.<\/p>\n<p>Songs heard on this show:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li data-start=\"1808\" data-end=\"1974\">Francois Hardy, Je N\u2019attends Plus Personne<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1808\" data-end=\"1974\">Velvet Underground, Heroin<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1808\" data-end=\"1974\">Jonathan Richman, Roadrunner<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1808\" data-end=\"1974\">Fanny, Blind Alley<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1808\" data-end=\"1974\">Big Star, Thirteen<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1808\" data-end=\"1974\">Death, Politicians in My Eyes<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1808\" data-end=\"1974\">Bam Ban, Villains (Also Wear White)<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1808\" data-end=\"1974\">Mudhoney, Touch Me I\u2019m Sick<\/li>\n<li data-start=\"1808\" data-end=\"1974\">Tin Machine, Under the God<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Eric Wilhite has our playlist.<\/p>\n<p><em>The Ongoing History of New Musi<\/em>c can be heard on these stations.
