The Decade's 50 Most Important Recordings

According to NPR

Inviting new people to be authors

If you guys want other people to be authors of the blog let me know e.g. Jimmy Z or Gary.... I can invite them and so can Den and Tom as they are administrators also.

JC&TR - "Temptation/25" (live)

the quality of the recording sucks and the slapback reverb on the lead vox is about as annoying as it gets, but after the chatter about this medley i thought i'd go ahead and post it...

The Death of Mistakes Means the Death of Rock

Good article about over fixing and correcting:

The Death of Mistakes Means the Death of Rock

The funny thing is I've listened to Rain so many times for so long I don't even hear the mistakes. It's just how the song is played. Then when you hear people cover it they intentionally play the mistakes. Weird.

JC&TR - "Signed Sealed Delivered"

this is the last of the studio demos that i have...we also recorded "poor poor pitiful me", but haven't seen a final mix of it...

Change to Comments Setting

All, I made a change to the comments setting so that it takes you to a new page when posting comments. I did this because the 'embedded' option causes problems occasionally, particularly with some browsers.

I'm confused - HELP

I haven't been able to listen to anything except Jesus is my friend - thanks for that (sarcasm). How does this thing work???

And another thing...The comments to each individual post are not displayed so you don't know if there have been any new comments to a posts.

WTF???

jeff's icon

jba...why is your icon a picture of me? i understand the temptation of wanting to be me...or be like me...but doesn't this go a little too far?

trying this again...

JC&TR - "Temptation Eyes"

i had never heard this song before one of the guys suggested it...it's from the late 60s or early 70s...during a show, we went right from this into "25 or 6 to 4"...our guitarist flat fucking nails it...

Library III

The wife and I celebrated the 17th last weekend by a trip to the Library. Lots of interesting books to read but I didn't read any. Same place, same entertainment area, same tiny tables in the lounge, same pictures on the walls, same great food.

My God it takes me back! I half expected Lax and company to show up for the entertainment.

Jesus Is My Friend

JC&TR - "Dani California"

paste HTML

why won't this thing let me cut and paste the HTML? i hate typing all that shite over and over...

Jeff's Wedding

When the hell is this thing? And where?

Jimmy Cav & The Racket - "Rock Steady"

i hope this works...it wouldn't let me cut and paste the code from JBA's email...WTF?

blah, blah, blah...

no, i don't have more important things to do...in fact, i have NOTHING to do...except keep the barrel from pointing at anything important (relax...taking poetic license for effect...exaggeration is my specialy)...

i'll try posting some post-mortum tunes from The Racket sometime later...

Substar test

I was trying to post my file as a comment and not as a new post.

Anyway, I always meant to play this on the podcast but kept forgetting about it:

Here's the lyrics so you can sing along:

Vulcanize the whoopee stick
In the ham wallet

Cattle prod the oyster ditch
With the lap rocket

Batter dip the cranny ax
In the gut locker

Retrofit the pudding hatch
Ooh la la
With the boink swatter

If i get you in the loop when I make a point to be straight with you then
In lieu of the innuendo in the end know my intent though
I brazillian wax poetic so hypothetically
I don't wanna beat around the bush

Foxtrot Unifrom Charlie Kilo
Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo

Marinate the nether rod
In the squish mitten

Power drill the yippee bog
With the dude piston

Pressure wash the quiver bone
In the bitch wrinkle

Cannonball the fiddle cove
Ooh la la
With the pork steeple

If i get you in the loop when I make a point to be straight with you then
In lieu of the innuendo in the end know my intent though
I brazillian wax poetic so hypothetically
I don't wanna beat around the bush

Foxtrot Unifrom Charlie Kilo
Foxtrot Uniform Charlie Kilo

Put the you know what in the you know where
Put the you know what in the you know where
Put the you know what in the you know where
Put the you know what in the you know where pronto
