This guy amuses me to no end
Last night Im full on into the punk stuff and this morning I get up thinking about this song:
Pretty Boy Floyd - Set The Night on Fire
which leads down a rabbit hole of cow bells, wood blocks and tasty riffs... and leather and crazy hair piled HIGH!
Shotgun Messiah - I Dont Care Bout Nothin
Sea Hags - Half The Way Valley
Dokken - Felony. Forgot about them stealing Croucier from Ratt. Before Pilson got in the band!

Funk (well, psychedelic soul and then Afrobeat) for Friday!!!
Shuggie Otis--Inspiration Information
Son of blues heavyweight, Johnny Otis, Shuggie made an incredible record back in 1974 that nobody ever heard until 2001 when it became a cause celebre amongst the international underground hipster elite (of which, at the time, I was a dues-paying member) when David Byrne from Talking Heads reissued it.
Unfortunately, the grooveshark page is missing the first two tracks, which I've found for you on youtube, and one of the bonus tracks, which you can find for yourself if you're so inclined.
Inspiration Information
Island Letter
The rest of the album
(Huh, so when I previewed the post and checked all the links, all of a sudden grooveshark has the entire album.)
Fela Kuti
Dead Boys - Sonic Reducer
And now, thanks to Drunken Nomad, I'm going to watch this whole f&&~ing Dead Boys show from CBGB's in 1977!!!!
I WANTCHA TO KNOW WHAT! LOVE! IS!
Woops, almost missed that fourth part with the end of Search and Destroy
Type O Negative - Love You to Death
Alice Cooper - I Love the Dead
hmmm. Happy Fridays? lol. Yeah Im SICK this evening.
PS. Yer welcome Doodlebug :)
Ill get a funk track or two on here tomorrow. Im out...going to a local Indian restaurant to a festival to see some bellydancing and a curry eating contest and a new DJ spinning some modern pop tunes from the MiddleEast.
Well, that's certainly more interesting than how I spent my Friday night whose highlight was fixing the belt on my turntable.

From Robin Gibb's late 60s? Early 70s? solo album . Trembling Bells covered this one.
Also, I've just finished watching a documentary about a bunch of San Francisco bands. Anything with John Cippolina and Grace Slick!!! in is automatically a winner.
It combined 'Go Ride the Music' and 'West Pole' and was brought to you courtesy of Ralph J. Gleason and his enviable moustache.
EDIT: Also, super live footage of Agitation Free!

And one last Säkert song: Jag blev som kvar
Such a simple but great riff, and such amazing lyrics.
(I promise the meter is better in Swedish - I went for accuracy.)

Suite Sister Mary, atm.
After I nearly broke the speed of sound changing the station when one of those stupid "Hold Your Hand" songs came on the radio, Mrs Gersen asked me if there were any Beatles songs I didn't hate. I decided that wasn't really fair -- stuff like "Let It Be" doesn't really do anything for me, but I don't care enough about it to hate it or anything -- so I decided to set a real challenge for myself and find 5 Beatles songs that I actually like. This proved to be difficult.
So far, I've assembled a list of four: "Tomorrow Never Knows," "Strawberry Fields Forever," "I Am the Walrus," and "A Day in the Life." Given their total songs list is up in the several hundreds, one would assume I could find another one and finish my task, but I've failed so far. Any suggestions?
Also, as a second-generation Beatlemaniac, I must say: I am very disappointed in you, Kirth.
Also, also, you made me break my resolution to not post again in here until I had listened to all of that Swedish music, even though I know that MGMT video Drunken Nomad linked is wikkid ossum.
The new album by I See Stars and some Oceans Red
Resolution broken, I might as well go for broke:
MGMT--"Kids" The fan video DN linked might also be awesome, but this is the f%&&ing shiznit.
As is Time to Pretend
I must say: I am very disappointed in you, Kirth.
Well, I suppose that's better than when I admitted I didn't much like Tolkien, and a bunch of people fell all over themselves to pile on and declare that I was objectiovely wrong and stupid for not being a gushing fanboy... In that regard, I fully expected that also not being a Beatles fan would get me excommunicated from humanity. "Very disappointed" almost sounds like gentle praise, in comparison!
Yeah, well, I'm a goblin. I couldn't care less if you get kicked out of the pinkskins club.
Yeah, Beastie Boys suck, too. ;P
** spoiler omitted **
Sorry, Comrade -- a good try given my love for psychadelic funk, but that particular jangle does nothing for me.
Well, I'm afraid you're on your own then.
Off the top of my head, my five favorite Beatles tunes are, not necessarily in order:
1) Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except Me and My Monkey
2) Tomorrow Never Knows
3) Help!
4) I Saw Her Standing There
5) I'm Looking Through You

You can probably guess my favorite Beatles tune.
