OMG... I've been listening to the band that shall not be named's latest release about rushing about... and enjoying it...

Und das ist gut so, mein Sohn.

He's a registered supporter. Got to know them at some gig in France where he hangs around a lot.

Come on, Rob, with your penchant for Mothers Finest/Living Color/Vintage Trouble, I simply know you must dig them.  :mrgreen:

A (not too straightforward) rhythm emphasis. As most black music has. Your own playing has all those rhythmic nuances too. And I mean that as a compliment.

Hmmm... I don't know the two songs that you posted tend to ripple on a bit without going anywhere. I lose interest after 2 minutes or so.

I found the African tribal chanting vocals over what is essentially blues-riffy rock a new approach. Most African music - to the extent it  doesn't have an Arabian influence - is in major keys, these guys are comparatively "minorish".

Alas!, the mighty BÖC returneth!

Eric all gritty (Albert Bouchard guesting with cowbell):




Donald Buck Dharma all smooth:



Wasn't Richie Castellano someone's relative here and Danny Miranda (he seems to be back with the band taking over from Kasim Sulton after moonlighting with Queen) a Dudepitter at one point?

History shows again and again, how nature points out the folly of men - GO-GO-GODZILLA! That song was always brilliant in its corniness!  :mrgreen:



And in case you ever wondered how the "Cowbell Song" came about, look no further than 1:12 ... behind every great man there is an even greater woman ...  :mrgreen:

Black State Highway.  A British band which, unfortunately, has broken up.

Clicking on that was a big mistake.

I prefer Johansen as Johansen, but I can live with his Buster Poindexter guise, probably because I have affectionate memories from a gig in NYC where I saw him backed by a Big Band in1988. It was good fun and he told lawyer jokes. By the end, he and half the band were polonaising through the hall with the audience.

My favorite Linda Ronstadt song.  What's with that drummer at the end, though?  LOL.
