Modern Vespa

I saw Little Village in Denver, before the egos exploded. Good album, better show, and helped produce John Hiatt's Perfectly Good Guitar.

Seen live last week... what a treat.

nope

Pour one
Poor won?

I lived in NYC for a bit and dated a girl in the 90's that lived next door to Tim (Spit Stix) Fear's drummer. He was super cool and as it was preinternet he had a VHS of that SNL performance which was unobtainium at the time. Was a gas to watch with him and hear all the stories that went along with it.

Bumping this thread. The song is inconsequential.

Skids, love that obscure song. I'll hit you with another one. Jonathan Demme took a cab ride in NYC and there was a song playing. He asked the driver about it. She said that it was her song. He got her number and all that. That song ended up in an iconic scene.

Playing a song better known by Little Feat, Van Dyke Parks.

Skids -- first off, THANKS! Truly great stuff. Jazz, though? Hmm...I'll need to think about that for a sec. These guys -- by their own admission -- are fashioned after Motown's FUNK BROTHERS.

That said, The Fearless Flyers SMOKE like there's no tomorrow! They give new meaning to the term "tight." And that drummer...OMFG! Stripped down kit and plays his ass slap off! And the bassist ain't no slouch, either. I wish I had been a third that good when I was playing!

Okay...now, given what you posted, I'm posting a track by The Aristocrats from their first album. I s'pose we'll classify it as jazz, too, since I first heard this track a few years ago on someone's jazz playlist on Spotify. For a trio, they, too, SMOKE! They're currently on tour, playing, I believe, in San Diego in September.

Enjoy!

BTW -- give 'em 2:00 of noodlin' intro before the chainsaw kicks in!

And they're darn good pickers.

BTW -- anyone who appreciates great music is, somewhere in their soul, a musician. And that, sir, includes you!

Victor

nope

skids -- I edited your post a bit to get to what I wanted to say: First off, I'd rather be you than that band director any day of the week. You -- at the very least -- ENJOY music!

So, see what I told you? You are -- in MY world -- a musician, 'cause you gets it in yer soul.

And for that, good on you!

Victor

nope

Very True, but just for the record, my high school band director was an asshole.

Hello this is my first post and i wanted it to be special so here is a song i hold dear to my heart because it reminds me of my childhood

kindly thanks

A very cool remix of The Who's Baba O'Riley ... first heard it on NFS MW 2012

Martin Phillipps from The Chills passed today.

Heavenly indeed.

kinda makes me hungry for some salt and vinegar fritos

That 90's escape from the techno hell type music

breakcore music is literally a nervous breakdown thats transformed into sound
song is hikomori - anbody can find love (except you)

ps: i love it tho

nope

First off, skids, NEVER listen to anyone who tells you "...they're just garbage..." and "...just throw them away." Ridiculous!

A quick search tells me that, sure, ebay is one outlet. But also check audiokarma.org or reelhifi.com or Elusive Disc or RXREELS.com to find out what's selling and for how much. You could also try DISCOGS under "cassettes" to see if anyone has been sneaking reel-to-reel tapes in that category.

Or, nose around on ebay or fb marketplace for a used reel-to-reel machine. You might find an affordable one -- perhaps from someone who spoke to your misguided family member and took them seriously! But I can't help you with those JBLs...last time I saw a pair of those, they were hanging over my head in a free-form FM rock station control room I worked at back in the mid-70s!

Victor

Skids -- just so you won't feel alone...and THE MUSIC MAN reel-to-reel is still sealed!

nope

Hard to argue with The Dead long about '72. The LP side of their live EUROPE '72 with SUGAR MAGNOLIA/MR. CHARLIE/TENNESSEE JED is, to this day, perhaps my favorite album side ever!

literally the pinacle of cool dad stuff ... that is rad

olds school musicals have a soul ... remember hearing this one on some obscure net radio thing ?

nope

Skids -- I'll send you a pvt msg.

V.

speaking of musicals i reharsed and memorised this song just to annoy my dad time to time

When Todd Rundgren was a kid, he absorbed the Gilbert & Sullivan catalog...and he wound up recording this selection on his 5th solo album, TODD.

He also recorded "Never Never Land" from PETER PAN on his 4th solo album, A WIZARD, A TRUE STAR.

Enjoy!

Victor

he kinda sounds like a 90's Disney musical villain like Gaston on ''Lord Chancellor's night '' i don't mean it as a insult because i really vibe with it

did not realy like the ''Never Never Land'' sorry its kinda discombobulating for me ... sadly

good and original post thanks
