What's on the Jukebox?

[Maritime Drag Racing]

Woodstock - Ten Years After / I'm going home(by helicopter).

[draglist]

Cool... Bob Dylan... Desire... bp

[Maritime Drag Racing]

Robert Johnson / King of the Delta Blues Volume 2 - sometimes good old blues is just perfect background music if you're stuck on the computer all day. If you can type one key with each drum beat or bass note it makes the time pass quicker(and speeds up your typing too LOL)

[WildcatOne]

Robert Johnson...none better. Top of the list. Good call! I got some bootleg Hendrix (BBC and Sweden gigs) I just slapped on the turntable..."I Don't Live Today"...LIVE...incredible. He dedicated it to the Native Americans...WC1

Thomas Dolby cool. Great artiste...good call there, BP....Cream of Clapton...reminds me of an incident when I worked at Arco back in the 70s and we all went to a Chinese restaurant for lunch. This guy that was with us was a big-time flaming gay dude...completely out of the closet...but when the waiter came around to take our orders (not a buffet world yet), Tony (that's the name I'll use) was in the Men's Room...so he asked me, sitting next to his empty chair, if he left an order with me. I said "Yes, Tony's having Cream of Sum Yung Guy..." <g> Turns out I am acquainted with Bill Whitbeck, Robert Earl Keen's bass player. He called me one night to let me know we have a mutual friend, Colin Kennedy. He was playing the Astrodome that night with REK...they're big-time...that was their first rodeo in Houston, though...Colin's uncle is still involved in the Kerrville Folk Festival; Colin had a band in the 70s in LaPorte and Bill played in his band. In the 80s, I played in Colin's band The Temperature Men. Bill was looking for Colin's number and we chatted for a while about the great CK. Colin likes the Citykings because we abbreviate the name to the CKs...my spin on the jukebox tonight is from the demo I'm making of some songs I recorded during 1986-1991 when I had that 8-track studio in the Heights; later moved it to my house. It's 13 songs; I played all the instruments, did all the vocals, arranged all of it, and wrote all but one of the songs..."Down, Down, Down" which was originally done by Tom Waits on "Swordfish Trombones"...I did a speed-rock-blues version of it with a lot of echo chamber and stuff going on and I choked my SG (The Six String Devil)'s neck to death on it. I did a lot of songs in the studio during those years, but these are the songs I did where I howled at the moon. I'm calling it Hell Unleashed. Anybody wants a copy, let me know. I'll send ya one. I'll check to see if you already have some of these tunes, but most of 'em I just recently acquired from Kathleen (backup vocals with the Citykings) who still had the 9-CD boxed set of my music that Colin made a few years ago called "Orchards". Let's go with "Down, Down, Down" by Tom Waits done by WildcatOne. Cheers, WC1
