She's cool. She's the cool one.

Speaker 1:

He took me to my first concert, so she's there, yeah, and, as we found out, she's still very protective of you. A couple of weeks ago, our last show, she threatened Leroy's life. She's, I'll track you down, I will hunt you down. I think she said to look.

Speaker 2:

I think it's a thing between Hillsdale and Park Ridge teenagers. They never get over that.

Speaker 1:

It's like rumblefish? Yeah, on the outsiders, one of those deals yeah. So what's new on the music relish show? Let's get that out of the way, anything.

Speaker 2:

Well, this week we actually talked about the rock and roll hall of fame ceremonies, which actually this was one of the better ones. I can't wait to see it because I saw about all the inductions. It looked pretty good. My son-in-law was at it. I haven't been able to catch up with him yet he actually went. It was in Brooklyn and all I heard was he said you know, we're on, we're here. We see Jimmy Page do a video introduction for Link Ray and all of a sudden, I see a guy on stage with white hair and a double neck and you're like holy shit, because he hadn't played live since 2012. So he was there, but it looked really good. Cheryl Crowe will leave that one out of it, but everything else I mean great inductees, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Excellent, all right, I'm going to. I can't. I'm going to leave it for the rest of the show, but I just noticed over my shoulder that one of my TVs is out. Oh no, that drives me crazy.

Speaker 2:

I noticed my door is crooked behind me.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, All show. I'm going to be looking at that one, but it's going to. I don't want to. If Lou was here I'd leave you to it and then, but I'll deal with it. That would bother Lou.

Speaker 2:

I think more than you.

Speaker 1:

So I heard he bowled the clown made in a pair. It's on the.

Speaker 2:

You freaked out, lou. He can't take it. I don't know who you is. Oh well there. What about that picture on Facebook of Ebola with someone's wife?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he was at the studio. Oh, he was at the studio. Of course he had to take a picture with the beautiful Dr Vera.

Speaker 2:

So he's a very peaceful guy.

Speaker 1:

No, no, that was the only picture. Then he got shuffled into the studio here and the door was locked.

Speaker 2:

He went outside door. That's right, I'm not in that closet and back.

Speaker 1:

I'm almost I'm positive he's not that guy. So I haven't seen the episode yet, but I will check it out. With the introduction of Ebola, the clown Surprise I guess it was a surprise to you guys. You didn't. You didn't know it was coming. No, no, not really. I was a lot of Perry, the AI, the artificial intelligence.

Speaker 2:

We start the show. Remember the old stones, like get your yai yai's out period, where they would start a song and you didn't know if they had it together. They always did, but they would start like in a shambles and then they get together. Yeah, that's sometimes how the show starts, you know, and sometimes we're a little low key, you know. We're just like hey, I know, and then Perry's the one that picks it up. He's always good surprises. Don't plan anything out ahead of time.

Speaker 1:

That's, that's what makes it good, it's organic conversation, you know. So tonight, you and I, as I was saying earlier, going to deviate from the, the, the norm that has been lately, and we're going to do some. Did you knows I haven't done? Did you know? In a long time those were always my go to and Jack started disappearing at the last minute.

Speaker 2:

Okay, because I didn't get many. Did you knows?

Speaker 1:

you know, I sent this to Mark the other day. I said, hey, let's do some, did you knows? I actually sent it last week and he's like, oh, that means I have to do research. Oh, it's hard to Google these things, I'm a busy man.

Speaker 2:

I was reading the new my f in life, eddie Lee autobiography, which came out.

Speaker 1:

Oh, the one, the one where he says they had to do a lot of cocaine just to keep their energy up. Did you get to that part.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, no, no actually I just approached it today that is.

Speaker 1:

I think his grandfather was suffering from dementia and then, right before the fake flu came out and then he couldn't go see him. I've saw, I read, some excerpts from it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And yeah, I mean, Debbie Lee is just a cool dude.

Speaker 2:

There's probably no band in rock history, in my opinion, that was so close as friends. In addition to being a great band, they're really tight and I don't know. There's talk that him and Alex are going to perform again. I don't know who's going to be on drums. You can't call it rush, and I'm sure it'll be good, but it's not Neil there. They love each other, you know.

Speaker 1:

I hold on. I just got a text. This is live streaming. Um uh sure, Um, excuse me everybody, Dead air, this is kind of the family thing. It's got a text, oh that's important. Yeah, let me see.

Speaker 2:

So the Beatles put out I'm going to talk while you're doing that. So yeah, a new single now. And then we talked about that on the show as well, and we all came to agreement that we absolutely love it, and the video too.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, the song is good. Uh, the song is good. I saw a little snippet of how it's made. The only problem I have with the song I don't know if it's a problem, it's really. It sounds modern, Like they tried to make it sound I'll just say this word Beatles, but it seems to have more of a modern feel to it. I guess it's like listening to a, an MP3 and a vinyl record.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, well, the difference between this and what was that song that they did for anthology real love? Yeah, and they didn't have the technology, the AI, to take London's voice and make it full, so they use the Lenin voice from the cassette demo. Yeah, when they did this AI and me and Perry kind of get disagree Perry said there's good AI. I'm still not convinced, but he's right on this one.

Speaker 1:

Well, he is an AI, so yeah, that's why he's pro.

Speaker 2:

AI. Yeah, but they got a good full Lenin voice and then Ringo records his drums now. So they're full and I guess they just it's very busy the production, it's very orchestra. You got the strings in there, yeah, so yeah, I noticed that too, but the melody underneath is great, that the arrangement is really good.

Speaker 1:

And it's funny you said that because because I was saying to my wife, if they like, stripped a layer off, it would have had a bet To me, it would have had a more of an authentic feel to it, that's just. It's hard to explain, but I think you get it when I just you know strip a layer off of it and tone it. It just had you know it had that, that, that bass. It has a bass in there, so like that just kind of resonates through.

Speaker 2:

I don't know.

Speaker 1:

It's hard to really explain it, but nice song, I like it. I like the song.

Speaker 2:

And I didn't like the video. The first time I saw it I thought it was corny, but then I watched it again. I literally saw it two minutes before our show and my first impression was here they are. They're doing the way Peter Jackson did digitally, you know, making the old footage look new, and he does a great job with it. But it was kind of like he got John Lennon in there with an acoustic dancing by Paul now, and then I got it. I got what it is. It's Paul looking at his friends, like he's sitting there in the studio, and it's his memories in front of them. And when you see it that way, I yeah, it's a good video.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, and actually I saw the kind of the making of it. I forget where. I said that I see it on YouTube.

Speaker 2:

I'm had a 10 minute thing on it that I maybe that's what it was.

Speaker 1:

I saw it. It's narrated by Paul. Yes, right.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And I heard it recently and I heard this. This was on a Facebook reel, I believe, and it was Paul being kind of not Paul, and he was talking about and toward the end of the Beatles and he's like I tolerated Yoko in the studio, I tolerated her putting her putting a carpet down in front of my amplifier and sitting in front of my amplifier, and you know, then it was who was the? Who was them, who was the? Who was the manager?

Speaker 2:

Oh Lou, where are you?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you know, I'm talking about in how John broke off and wrote a song with with him and Yoko, and one of the lyrics in it was all you did was yesterday. And Paul took umbrage. To that he said, yes, he goes. I don't know if I believe I also did Ellen or Rigby, and he's labeled off all these like bombs that he sent out, you know, and he was really like kind of, you know, it was a fuck you moment, you know, and you don't really hear him talk like that. Yeah, but he was almost unfiltered.

Speaker 2:

He wanted to keep the band together and he probably saw it's not so much that Yoko was splitting, it's John was so attached to Yoko. Anyone who's been in a band will tell you. Once the girlfriends come to the rehearsal, or the wives, it changes the chemistry because when you're in a band you're married. Yeah, so I've been in almost every band I've been in. This is no girlfriends allowed at the rehearsals, but always a couple get it, one or two get in and most bands break up because of that stuff. You know, it just changes all dynamics. And then the Beatles. It was that times a thousand. Yeah, you got there at the end of their career.

Speaker 1:

She was just a petulant, fucking piece of shit and he's a pussy. John Lennon is a fucking pussy.

Speaker 2:

I don't care what. I'm always so great.

Speaker 1:

He was a fucking ultimate beta male pussy who needed to be told what to do, and you know he was fucking lazy too. You know he didn't have a voice of his own as far as making a stand on anything, and I've got.

Speaker 2:

I've got the box set of all solo albums on CD. I do listen to him, but out of all four he's probably my least Exactly. He when he was on. He was on and I've had arguments like double fantasy to me is a good pop album. That's right, he's all that is. Yeah, and I like it. There's nothing wrong with doing a pop album.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and then his production sounded dreadful on some of those albums, just just all mushed.

Speaker 1:

Fucking lazy. I'm John Lennon. I'm John Lennon. I think he just started living. I mean, oh, what was he without McCartney? Yeah, you know McCartney had a lot of hits.

Speaker 1:

I tore it up, mccartney and Wings tore it up. I'm a big Wings guy. I love, I am too, I am. It's a great, great greatest hits album. Yeah, fantastic greatest hits album. I watched the video the other day for live and let die. It still gives me goosebumps. Yeah, that whole James Bond thing and the way he put that song together and it's very beatily, you know, has the different breaks, you know it switches up in the middle and it switches up at the end and it's just a great song. I mean Wings. But what was Lennon doing? You know it was a fucking plastic ono band.

Speaker 1:

Are you kidding me? Yeah, he's just. I just it's not overrated because he's great. He's great with the Beatles. He was a great beat. Yeah, wasn't a great solo artist, and if Jack was here he'd be like whoa, whoa, whoa. What do you mean? He wasn't a great solo, he just he had some good songs, I think.

Speaker 2:

I think his lyrics. He was a better lyricist to me. They were angry. He had a. I love an artist that gets his issues out with lyrics.

Speaker 1:

You know what I'm not only said. Mccartney said you know war is over if you want it to be. And this was during this little interview. It was an audio interview. It says war is over if you want it to be. No, it's not. It doesn't work that way. You know, like he really went after that, like the way John tried to be. All you know when was this interview conducted? I tried to find it again. I caught it, I believe on a Facebook reel, and then it was. You know, you flip and then it's gone. But he was, he was like basically saying his those lyrics that he would write and just kind of did not realistic. You know he's trying to say you know anti war stuff and however he said it, but he fucking dog them.

Speaker 2:

You know what he did? He poured his emotions and his heart out in his songs, whereas Paul was more of a Brill building writer. He said I'm going to write a pop song. So silly love songs, that's a pop song. He writes more, that's a good song. I love silly love songs and let them in for my childhood oh, absolutely. But with John it's like, yeah, you're he, his music was his therapy, basically. You know, maybe he was just getting a lot of shit out, he was messed up. He had, he had issues. You know One thing that surprised me.

Speaker 2:

Hey then I am too I got issues we were talking about on music, relish about an old Saturday night live and he goes like the first season where they were being offered the Beatles were being offered to reunite.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

I think George Harrison was on the show and then Lou said something that surprised me. Lou said that Paul and John were sitting in his apartment in the Dakota watching it and they said, yeah, we go down. He went nah, I'm tired. I said they hung out. And then Perry said, yeah, paul will go over and hang out with John. They were just two guys from Liverpool. I thought they never talked. No, there's yeah.

Speaker 1:

He said I heard something about a Lenin said McCartney would come over just drop in out of nowhere. I think it was part of that Lou conversation. Yeah, I was like you can't just like drop in like this, you know. Yeah, so they were, they were still friend, they just couldn't record together anymore. So let's look at Dave Phillips. King of the 45s says Brian Epstein. No, it was somebody else. It was there, whether it was their tour manager, it was somebody. I forget his name, but he's the one that creeped into John's head with the old go.

Speaker 2:

He was connected with the Stones too.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, it's kind of a scumbag.

Speaker 2:

Was it Alan Klein? Yes, there you go, buddy, there you go.

Speaker 1:

That's a scumbag of music. That dude's just a piece of shit. Yeah, yeah. And then we have Dean Farron Bring on the 80s trivia. Name this movie. Yeah, I know Bass Masters. Do you know the name? Do you know what quote that's from what movie?

Speaker 2:

Is it a Dan?

Speaker 1:

Ackroyd movie. I don't know, I don't know.

Speaker 2:

I'm thinking of one of those where he's a fish and you know, yeah, or John Candy.

Speaker 1:

Dean, if you watch and you got to give us the answer.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

I don't know. Then my brother Colin, associate producer. Associate producer.

Speaker 2:

By the way, can I say something? I'm wearing a Liverpool jersey. Is that okay, liverpool? I was not a Canadian's jersey.

Speaker 1:

He lost his fucking mind. I was getting angry text messages. Who the fuck is he to wear a Canadians jersey on the show? What the fuck is that? Who the fuck? I used to like him. We used to be friends a long time ago. He was working as a waitress in a cocktail bar. When I met him. I got all these texts about that.

Speaker 2:

So I wanted Rangers jersey and gotten away with it.

Speaker 1:

So he, he comments. All we are saying is give peace of chance and all I'm saying is fuck you bro. Oh, the fight. I can say it over the hey. It wouldn't be the first time we fought fist fight. I never came out on the winning end. Most of the time I was just a you know. But times have changed. I am a podcast tough guys. If ours he's concerned, all right, so let's get on with the show. Yeah, let me see. Patty asked me how come I'm missing this. Patty says my birthday tomorrow and Bubba's is on Monday. Patty's birthday is tomorrow. Happy birthday, patty. Oh, there it is, it's at the bottom. Happy birthday, we're going to have to. What's your favorite is to this. I have two favorite birthday songs. Like rocks, like music songs, what do you have anything, any, any favorite like birthday song?

Speaker 2:

I, I'm, I have, I'm always partial, because I grew up with traditional happy birthday, so I would love to just come into room, going down and in and in and just to piss everybody off. So it's for me it's that.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's everybody's. I'm just with the buddy of mine, kevin Fisk, on Facebook.

Speaker 2:

Oh, you like Earth Day cake.

Speaker 1:

That song, no, no no, no, no, no, no the Smith's unhappy birthday is the greatest, that's me. Anti birthday song ever.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Go listen to that song.

Speaker 2:

You did. I've been in the link for that. It is such.

Speaker 1:

It is so Smith's that upbeat tempo in the lyrics adjust. It's just fucking hard. Like Morrissey is at his best, he's at his darkest. Unhappy birthday by the Smiths. Yeah, in the sugar cubes birthday. Ah, have you heard it? Nope, let me see. Let's see if I can, your brother just said stay sober tonight.

Speaker 2:

So, yes, I will tell him the fuck off. No, no, he's right, cause it's true.

Speaker 1:

It's like running out of battery. Don't tell him that Don't tell him, he's right.

Speaker 2:

Is he your older or younger brother?

Speaker 1:

He's my. I'm the youngest.

Speaker 2:

Oh, always, always, respect your older sibling. I can I'm saying that cause Allison's on the chat. Oh, okay.

Speaker 1:

I told you the story. He came to visit me when I was stationed at Mathery F West base in Sacramento. We're at the base gym and he has, he has one leg right and he has an artificial leg on his left leg and so we're playing and people are watching. You know, the gym is full, it's in the afternoon and people are watching. We got one of the one of the you know the keys. We're playing, or one on one, just joke. Then we stopped playing one on one. That's getting a little physical. And at one point I knock him over right and people in the gym are going to modify right. Like you hear, the balls just stop bouncing around us and he, his leg falls off. Oh right, his leg falls off. It's above the knee, so it's like it goes in the the slot. So he's like and he's lying, he's laughing, he goes to get it. He goes to get it and I kick it away from him and I pick up the ball and do a layup. That's that sums our relationship up in one story.

Speaker 2:

Well, everyone in that gym learned about the McLean brother.

Speaker 1:

Oh see, they didn't know we were brothers, so that's even better. So they thought I did that too. It could have been anybody. All right, enough of that story, so let me play the. You might have heard this song, so let's see, let's see, let's see, I'm on. All right, so we hear that song. No, great song, I don't know much about sugar cubes. Lou and Perry, keep school me, oh I love you, I love you, I love you Never.

Speaker 2:

I love New York solo stuff and I never really got into the her. The sugar cubes yeah, I got to get to them.

Speaker 1:

Do it. Yeah, so listen to that song too. But unhappy birthday by the Smiths is probably. I can't send it to people, though, because they'll most of them would be fucking mortified. You have to have a doc. That's a human. Yeah, I knew you'd get it.

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah. Well, the first time you told me, did you ever hear of a show called oh, what's the trail? Trailer Park Boys? I said no, it's a little dark and I'm like what's he talking about? To me that's not dark at all, that's just great.

Speaker 1:

It's doc humor Like it's off the wall Humor, it's not, so it has dark moments. It does, but it doesn't bother me when he sends his daughter out to get a beer. Like you know, he's drinking with his like fucking 12 year old daughter. You know what I mean.

Speaker 2:

Or she shoots the gun, is that so yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Or she's her, or something Such a great show. That's a great show, all right, so let's get into some. Did you know let me jump off with this one Did you know that Elvis's manager, right, colonel Tom Parker, forbade him from touring internationally? Yeah, the reason? Because Parker was in the US illegally and he feared that they wouldn't let him back if he and Elvis ever went abroad.

Speaker 2:

Now, why was he in the US? Was he a citizen of the United States?

Speaker 1:

I don't, I don't know, I mean yeah, yeah, you would think, maybe he's not, maybe he was Canadian or something, who knows?

Speaker 2:

But according to this he was in the.

Speaker 1:

he was in the country illegally, maybe at first, I don't know.

Speaker 2:

Is it worth? It's worth looking up. Yeah, yeah, well, he looks like Tom Hanks.

Speaker 1:

Well, and he was a perfect role, perfect pop of the roll. What do you got?

Speaker 2:

Did you know that I used to eat breakfast at the Bloorvelt Diner? And that was the diner where Bruce Springsteen used to sit and eat his scrambled eggs when he was recording at 914 Studios, his first two albums and Born to Run? Now that means nothing to you, but that studio, where it was, is 10 minutes away from me. I pass it every day on the way to work and I found out years later I believe, maybe from Lou that oh, when they recorded the first two albums and the Born to Run single after that they never went back. He camped out back because where he came from down near Red Bank is about two hours away, so you're not going to record till two in the morning. They pitched the tent that part of Rockland is just. It's where that old army base I told you about was, with the missile silos. There's a big mountain there, so you would just pitch a tent in the back and sleep. And they love scrambled eggs, they would eat it all day, so they'd be going right into the Bloorvelt Diner.

Speaker 2:

Again this is nothing that means anything but me. I'm like when Lou told me that I sat at a table in a place at Springsteen. Well, scrambled eggs.

Speaker 1:

It's not. It Did you know, but it's, it's, it's, it's. Maybe it's not not a topper, because it's Springsteen, but my father, when I was a kid, we he took me down to Cape Cod with his girlfriend and his convertible common gear was a nice summer day and we went to the beach and on the way back we stopped at a diner and, as we were going in, the dude that wears the hat from Seales and Croft Held the door for us. Wow, I was probably 12 and they didn't know it. My father's girlfriend didn't know it and we sat down at the table and he said at 12, right, I was like yeah, that's, that's, that's the guy from Seales and Croft. And they were like what?

Speaker 2:

How did you know that what?

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I just know, I know, I know it was him yeah pretty cool.

Speaker 2:

Oh, that's cool, yeah, yeah, did you know that?

Speaker 1:

Yeah yeah, did you know that cat scans only exist because of the Beatles?

Speaker 2:

They're gonna say Cat Stevens no, can't put me in the green room. No, no, I know Well.

Speaker 1:

I could, but it's a night, yeah, uh, yeah, cat scans only exist because of the Beatles. The initial funding for the research into the tech, which went on to win a Nobel Prize right became uh came because the record label EMI was so flush with Beatles money. Yeah, wow, they made that much money. They're like let's invest in, you know, let's put it into this and see where it goes, john and Paul, yeah, and George. Yeah, so that's a good, did you know?

Speaker 1:

That is good. Now give me another fucking thing about scramble Dex and a diner and.

Speaker 2:

No, this will come from my years in music. Oh, I'm an old analog guy and people our age do know analog. So, yeah, something called tape and Ampex is a big maker of Ampex tape. So I learned we used to get all our Ampex tape but only from Ampex. They were the best. They're based in Opelica, alabama.

Speaker 2:

Did I say that right? I think I said it right and I used to say why is Ampex, which is the worldwide known everything made in Opelica? Because in World War II someone high up in the military was from Opelica and there's something called spoils of war and they took a lot of the technology from the Nazis, brought it back and one of them was the tape, the whole system of tapes, because at that time people were recording either direct to desk, you know the 78 RPM, but the recording studios would go to a lathe. So the whole quarter, or just tape, you know, going over came from that and he brought a couple German engineers and they all brought them to Opelica and that's how Ampex started. I just find that fascinating, because Ampex ended up supplying Abbey Road Studios, all these big studios. They had cassettes too, right yeah.

Speaker 2:

Ampex cassettes.

Speaker 1:

But but you know, the king of all, all cassettes, recording, cassettes, where?

Speaker 2:

for me it's a tie between TDK and Maxxel Maxxel.

Speaker 1:

I thought the Maxxel gold. I always bought the Maxxel gold.

Speaker 2:

You know what made a cassette better? It wasn't the tape, so much it was the shell.

Speaker 1:

And I was going to say the Maxxel golds were built like a fucking little tank.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

That's why they were a little more expensive than the other ones, but they were. They were solid, solid cassettes.

Speaker 2:

Because you go to Radio Shack. I remember Radio Shack we had those shit tapes, like if you were really desperate and you didn't have any money like I got to record my friend's album so I'd run and get a Radio Shack. Oh it sounded like shit. The highs were going because the way it's running over the little pad it's, it's so hard. So right before they stopped making cassettes, ampex was making a ceramic shell cassette. I still want to do heavy like a rock Really.

Speaker 1:

You have a few. Yeah, what's on them?

Speaker 2:

Are they? Are they? I would test them out. So we had Nakamichi dragons in there and they were like, considered the best cassette deck recorders. We would do real time cassettes like for you know, there were actually people that did one to one, none a high speed dubbing, and we used Nakamichi so I'd record on them. You could actually push the levels more because they were actually putting a really good chrome bias. You know the high bias tape in there and whatever I have. The last time I had a cassette deck I put it in and it played. What I had, I think, I think I recorded REM on it and I was just fooling around because CDs had come out. This is, you know, we had a whole bank of Nakamichi dragons. We had about 18 of them. So back when CDs first came out and they were expensive, so something I go hey guys, I got REMs. The one was losing my religion. So we'd go upstairs, run 18 copies on the Nakamichi dragons, rip it off the record industry Nice.

Speaker 1:

The original.

Speaker 2:

Napster, and then when we were able to record CDs, that was the shit. So it's funny.

Speaker 1:

You said that because there was this. I was just thinking this last night, so this is kind of interesting. There was this record store in Winthrop, massachusetts, where I grew up, like right on the border of East Boston, and it was called the singing cricket and that's where I bought my John Lennon mind games eight track right, cause I I still to this day love that song. Oh it's right, I might. He might be a pussy, but I love the song, mind games and um, let's see.

Speaker 1:

Number nine dream is another dream is a great song. Yeah, there's a few, there's a, there's a small handful that I do really like his music, but overall this catalog to me is garbage. Uh, let me see. Oh, that's my, my girl, tiffany, my friend, tiffany Van Hills, and howdy having to sleep over at the hospital watching Christmas movies. She's such a good girl she really is. That's a, that is, that is a good person right there. She's a beautiful young lady who's a wonderful personality and great spirit. And yeah, yeah, well, you enjoy your Christmas movies, tiff, and I'll see you tomorrow. Actually, I'll see you at the farm. She works with me at the herd foundation.

Speaker 2:

Oh, great, great website. I was on it.

Speaker 1:

Oh, yeah, yeah, I'll let them know too. I'll let them know. So I get this. Uh, yes, dave Phillips, he just he grew up with a eight track bootlegs. Right, they must have been pumping these out Like who's going to find this store. Right, because it had a lime green. A lime green, uh, uh, uh, what do you call it? Uh, label, right, had a had a lime green label. It was like typed all the songs, I didn't care. I think it paid like two bucks forward or something Whatever.

Speaker 2:

Taking it off vinyl or something, maybe recording record, oh yeah, they.

Speaker 1:

They had something in that back room and the guy like they could be four left, and you go back the next day or two days later and there's 10 more in there. You know, in the slots mind games, but definitely bootlegging. Back then they were killing it too and there's no way the record companies could find that shit out.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, it was a small store and it was pre-electronic shipping, so you didn't have to track, you know yeah, it was all local business, do you have?

Speaker 2:

the cutouts in the 80s, or like they would have the cutout bin with records with the little notch cut in the top corner. Yeah, so that was a scam. That was a big scam, especially if it was MCA records, because when I was young I never paid more than 3.99 for Elton John album. Who else was on MCA? Uh, it was a bunch. You know any artist, the who had a couple of you know, and what it was was, um, I can't remember the guy that headed MCA records.

Speaker 2:

He was making deals with the mob, including Vincent Giganti, or as Vincent the chin the chin Giganti that crime family was was he was having them run the stuff and I do know where those albums were being made. Years later I worked with someone who was a salesman and uh, but that was all it was funny it was. I believe it might have been Irving A's off, but I don't know for sure. But he was bootleg in his own record company so he was making money. So, yeah, everyone was. They were legit, but not legit, you know yeah.

Speaker 1:

I guess Dave Phillips had uh, he had bought the Nilsson Schmilsson eight track.

Speaker 2:

Uh, I got that. I got the quadrophonic vinyl up on my shelf. Yeah, it's actually not bad.

Speaker 1:

It's actually not bad, um, all right. So uh, let me see. Did you know that decades after his sixties hits, who named this person? One singer recorded a whole album lying down. You know who that is. Decades after his sixties hits, one singer recorded this kind of a trivia, but it's a. Did you know cause? I'm going to continue Really.

Speaker 2:

When I know about laying down with. I know Jim Morrison did us on that last album. He did some tracks like that. We know why?

Speaker 1:

Um no, I don't know it was uh, it was Curtis Mayfield, because he was paralyzed from the neck down and found he was only able to sing while flat on his back with gravity, helping him exhale, right yeah.

Speaker 2:

And he got that from a horrible accident, I believe in a concert right Fucking lighting fell on him and a freak thunderstorm or something.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, hit him in the head, fucked, and paralyzed him Like wow, and that dude is just does not get the credit he deserves. That dude was a ground breaker but he's never really mentioned. He's kind of in his own category but he's never mentioned in that that category of great soul funk, you know singers.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, Curtis Mayfield Um what do you got?

Speaker 2:

Give me another one, cause I'm thinking.

Speaker 1:

I'll just continue on. Yeah, did you know that Walkman first marketed itself to couples wanting to listen to it together? The first Walkman had two headphone jacks in it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I could start some fights.

Speaker 1:

Well, it's, it's, and they could talk to. You know, they could kind of one ear and keep talking and have the music playing. But that's how it was marketed when it first came out.

Speaker 2:

Remember the sound of a cassette going into a Walkman to come you know, I want to hear this. No, no, no. I want to hear this silver.

Speaker 1:

I had the silver Sony Walkman. Yeah, so did I. I used to have it. I'd get a bandana, right, and I would tie it around my cause. I hated it stuck to my pocket, right. So what I would do is I'd get a bandana, I tie it through a belt loop and I would hang it from that like it was a holster. Nice, and it was fun and it was good, it was light. You know what I mean. I was stuck in my pocket, like that clip type thing, and I could sit down and look on the train and just kind of roll it over on my lap.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I was innovator.

Speaker 1:

I was an innovator. I miss Sierra.

Speaker 2:

I miss the era of the boom boxes. Early eighties I had a beautiful elementary school. I had my big Sony boom box and I had about a three mile walk. My mother made a seventh grader walk three miles home on a busy road, supposed to. Well, I'll tell you what I had a car. Well, I got chased through the woods once by some dirty old men.

Speaker 2:

It was happening back then. Okay, combat Rock came out and that was my favorite. So I got the cassette and I remember just just walking down the street with I forget the one song off it. It's got kind of it talks about Vietnam. I can't remember which song on that album it was.

Speaker 1:

Oh, is it a Charlie Don't Surf.

Speaker 2:

Yes, I think, believe so.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, like the to Boston at lunchtime with this boom box that I bought off my buddy, riz, his black kid from Dorchester, and this was a big one. Like this was like a fucking 12 battery, 12d battery boom box. This was a big one. Wow, yeah, yeah. And I would crank like Prince controversy and Grandmaster Flash the message Like just what's this white boy doing there? Like what's this fucking white kid doing Middle of lunchtime in downtown Boston. I didn't care, cool.

Speaker 2:

Fuck them. You know what I think back. I was kind of an asshole blasting my music Like why is everyone after?

Speaker 1:

you. We all did that, though. That was the thing.

Speaker 2:

And then to this day sometimes I'm coming home and dream theater song. Come on the car and I'm in traffic, You're all going to hear dream theater.

Speaker 1:

It's probably one of the reasons I have tinnitus. I'm sure it's contributing Right next to you Contributing factor, absolutely.

Speaker 2:

And you got muscles too, you know.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, and those Walkmans. One more thing about the Walkmans those things like the volume was not controlled, that was like 11, like on the spinal tap. When you turned up the original Walkman and they had, it was just that thin piece of metal like aluminum that went over yet and it had the black that mine had, the black foam airpiece, that shit was loud.

Speaker 2:

That was a speaker directly on your ear.

Speaker 1:

That shit was loud, yes, which led to years later warnings because people were really going to and they eventually they didn't go up that loud, but that I was like holy shit, this is loud, which we liked, you know, because then you'd be on the train and you could, somebody else would have them on and if you don't have, it's that tinny. You hear every word in the song but it's a tinny kind of sound of the song because it's on the ears but it's just breaking through those headphones. Oh yeah, to the outside world, no doubt about that.

Speaker 2:

You couldn't contain that. I got to be older but I could still play. I don't know what happened to my Walkman, but I remember years later, after I just settled on these kinds of headphones and stuff, and I pulled my Walkman out and I played it and I go wow, those sounded like crap.

Speaker 1:

They really sounded like shit. No bass, no, but for the time. Well, us white boys like the treble, don't we?

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, white boys love that treble. I mean, my friends would have super tweeters in their cars, you know like, just keep getting that treble louder and clearer. It went good with the hair metal. Yeah yeah, did you know? An Aretha Franklin impersonator once fooled fans and then became a star actually small star. Yeah Wow, a concert promoter held Vicki Jones against her will and booked shows falsely claiming she was Aretha Franklin. When the truth came out, jones went on touring under her own name. It was a moderate success, a moderate hit. The dude held her against her will. What the fuck is that? What's his?

Speaker 2:

name you will be Aretha.

Speaker 1:

You will be Aretha bitch. What's his name? Phil oh, phil Spector or Phil Kelly?

Speaker 2:

What I'll take it. Oh, now Phil's back here. Don't get me in your.

Speaker 1:

There's been a Phil Kelly mentioning in the show, like almost every show.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, we had in my town. Westwood was the big town next to my town. There was a record store there that had gone back to the 30s when the 78s were being sold. It was called Town and Country Music and in the 80s they were struggling. They was an old family business and sometimes they kind of like take it for granted, they don't really move ahead. So they had rock albums but they weren't as like. They had video games and stuff. So a new place moved open called Music Merchant and I liked Music Merchant. They were set up to sell rock and roll to kids, but the Town and Country I thought it was one of the funniest things he hired. He knew it was an impersonator. Remember James Young from Sticks, the guy with the lawn block there.

Speaker 2:

He hired an impersonator to sign Sticks, albums, oh nice, and the guy in Music Merchant kind of made a call to the record label.

Speaker 1:

I said we got a problem here.

Speaker 2:

I closed them down I thought usually I'm thinking like because James Young kind of looks funny yeah all the poor people that paid money. There's probably people out there. I got a signed copy of Paradise Theater. No, you don't.

Speaker 1:

Did you know Pat Boone has the record for most consecutive weeks on the pop charts.

Speaker 2:

It was the heavy metal album, I'm sure.

Speaker 1:

I don't know, I don't think so it was.

Speaker 2:

He was a monster.

Speaker 1:

He chatted continuously for 220 weeks, a record still unbroken as of that printing of this thing. But that's, that's a long time. But then again, you know, back then there wasn't a lot of, really a lot of big competition, right, probably payola to payola Probably had a lot to do with that.

Speaker 2:

Well, that would go into lose thing of a tallow rock, right? Yeah, there's a lot going on. A lot going on behind the scenes, yeah he said on your show of Jersey Boys, the Christopher walking character, he knew him growing up.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, his father out of the mountain. He had to save his family.

Speaker 2:

Can't believe he told that story.

Speaker 1:

That's hilarious. That's hilarious. Luke comes up with some gems every once in a while. No AI on analog.

Speaker 2:

Agreed. Yeah, I still say that. My thing is, if you use AI and you're, and you're honest like I don't think we have to worry about giles Martin misusing AI with the Beatles, but the, the potential is there for some really some uncouth record execs to do some really bad stuff in the future.

Speaker 1:

We're going to see it. Yeah, we will. You're going to see it. Did you know a 2020 bio pic called Stardust? David Bowie bio pic called Stardust didn't have the rights to his music, so the character instead saying velvet underground songs, or rather songs that sounded like velvet underground songs, because they didn't have the rights to the velvet underground music either.

Speaker 2:

I knew there was a reason I didn't want to see that movie.

Speaker 1:

Yeah Well, thank God, you didn't, it's out there, it's out there. But yeah, like so it's. How can they call it a Bowie bio?

Speaker 2:

pic. Why, why? I remember when they were pushing that movie they were getting ready to film it, but the Bowie state didn't want to. They wouldn't give them the rights, just give it up.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

You know, I don't know how it is, it may be an OK movie, but you got to have the music, got to. Yeah, can you imagine if the Queen movie was made with Montajupo music With Maddy?

Speaker 1:

because I'm never going to see it. I didn't see the Elton John one either. No, I didn't see any of those by. I lived it.

Speaker 2:

But you know why I didn't like the Queen movie. They screwed around with the timeline. Yeah, the Live Aid was the last concert. I hate that. Don't do that to my bands.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah. That's why I don't waste my time. Like I said, I lived it, I read about it. I saw all the magazine articles, like you saw the news clippings. You saw the news. You know when they made the news. I didn't need a movie to tell me about Elton John.

Speaker 2:

If you're going to make a movie about a rock band I thought the best was almost famous Make it a fictional band that you know, so you have no pressure to make it look like the real.

Speaker 1:

They tried some series lately. It was a little maybe, oh.

Speaker 2:

I watched the first two episodes. I like it, but it's like it should have been a movie it's so contrived. It's just Well, you got 20 somethings doing our music. That's what it is. You know, and they know more about it than us. Yeah, yeah I don't know.

Speaker 1:

Did you know the Hard Rock Cafe is now wholly owned by my? I'm not one of them, but I'm down here by the Seminole Tribe of Florida, Seminole Indians.

Speaker 2:

The whole chain.

Speaker 1:

They bought and I remember they bought this like 20 years ago. They make so much yeah. They bought the business in 2006 for nearly a billion dollars Now. They had they opened a casino here in Hollywood. It was where I used to live, literally a four minute drive and it was a great complex, right, yeah. And then they they legalized Blackjack here in in South Florida. They got a license to play Blackjack because he really couldn't do it in.

Speaker 2:

South Florida.

Speaker 1:

And that place exploded right, so much so that the whole complex was probably 10 years old. Right had outdoor restaurants and clubs and they had inside casino and they had its own poker room. And it was just, they made so much money. They, in 10 years, they tore it all down. They tore it all down and now you have the famous guitar shaped hotel that they built, one of a kind in the world, and they did away with all the outside interference. They learned a lesson from that. They just print money.

Speaker 1:

They print money If you can tear down that complex probably cost a hundred million dollars. The original one. They tore it down, redesigned it from scratch in Hollywood, florida. The place is amazing. You see the guitar drivin' from the highway it's fucking cool.

Speaker 2:

It's amazing Like if you know I'd like to get a build a new house, it's gonna be tough. Then you got like this in New Jersey we recently had, we had the Metalands Arena and there was a soccer team there sorry, a hockey team there. The New Jersey Devils and the New Jersey Nets played there. They both went. We want our own stadiums. So they actually built 10 miles away an arena for the New Jersey Devils. The Nets got their arena in Brooklyn. But it's like when you got money, like these things get built and it's like, wow, and then the Metalands is sittin' there unused. They're gonna tear it down, but it was perfectly fine. It's like why?

Speaker 1:

They gotta keep up with the Joneses. Yeah, hey, did you know that Elvis had a rule that he never had sex with a woman who'd given birth? That includes his own wife, priscilla.

Speaker 2:

Wow, ha right Baby, baby.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, baby, I can't be a baby. You had a baby, baby Wow.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, but nobody did it better than Prince in that. Oh yeah, no one did it better than Prince. Yeah, Eric Clapton, I knew you'd know that one. Did you know that John Lennon wrote Good Morning? Good Morning after hearing a cornflakes commercial.

Speaker 2:

That makes sense. Yep, yep, they'd cornflakes in England.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, right. Well, he was probably in America at that point, right?

Speaker 2:

Oh yeah, that's true.

Speaker 1:

At one point off and on. Did you know that the term London Calling was named after a phrase used? Or the album London Calling or term was used after a phrase used in a BBC show during World War II, and it went it said Good Morning America, this is London Calling, wow.

Speaker 2:

Hot stove and looney looney, the chance. Looney looney. Remember that? Yeah, that was. That was one of the most interesting things. I've ever seen. That was one of the most faithful adaptions to me of a Stephen King novel. Not that they got it just like the novel, but when that guy's going looney you always felt like there was some kind of supernatural thing behind all that. It was a very dark movie, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

What's the name of the 1986 film starring Chuck Norris that was inspired by an aircraft hijacking that occurred a year before?

No, I'm thinking there was a movie where the plane was being hijacked and it had Stephen Seagal and he died early in the movie. I was shocked that he agreed to that had a lot of big actors, a lot of big action. Kurt Russell was in it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Oh, screw that one up.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and licensed to kill in 89.

Speaker 2:

That was Timothy Dalton. I got the decades totally wrong. Yeah, license to kill was probably the worst James Bond movie, because you don't make a James Bond movie take place 80% in Florida and then 20% in Cuba. You got to go over the whole world.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

You can't do that, you just can't.

Nightmare and Elm Street for the dream master in 88. And a nightmare and Elm Street five, the dream child in 89. He made a fucking boatload of money in the 80s. Yep, freddie's dead. The final nightmare in 91 was Wes Craven's new nightmare in 94. The other two he was funny.

Speaker 2:

He brought humor to the role.

They re-booted the movie. Yeah, they remade things Fucking horrible. Did you see that? I?

Speaker 2:

know, I rented it and then we brought it home when you rented DVDs and I got 15 minutes into it. I'm like, where's the humor? Freddie's got to have humor. He's just going people. I'm like, turn it off, you know.

Speaker 1:

I played. Freddie was played by the dude that was in the bad news bears originally.

Speaker 2:

I'm not sure I forget his name.

Speaker 1:

He played Kelly the cool kid, then he played Rorschach in the Watchmen. Okay, I think he played Freddie was horrible, horrible.

Speaker 2:

And I saw the picture of him. I'm like I'm not going to watch and that may have been the first one where I said they're remaking these movies and they're just like, because you know what it was the late nineties or two, that now two thousands and nothing could be funny. There could be, everything had to be serious and just think dark and like liberals came in.

Speaker 2:

Okay.

Speaker 1:

And the lyrics of this song are nice, girls. See, it's hard to read these because you want to sing it, yeah. So to say them in my head and I'm showing you the same, it's hard to just read them as a sentence. So if it sounds a little robotic, it's because if I it's like if he gives someone the slightest hint of the tune, they're gonna get it. You can't even do the rhythm. No, you gotta kind of try doing this, people. Try looking up some lyrics and just reading them without the tune in your head. All right, these lyrics are nice, these girls, not one with a defect. Cellophane shrink, wrapped, so correct. Red dogs under illegal legs. She looks so good that he gets down and begs, Uh-oh, like octopus froze, great. Sound like a yeah, you hear, but I'm seeing a frozen screen. And you sound like number five from the robot, the movie that we talked about. I see four yellow in mine for you.

Speaker 2:

It's gonna be two verses because it's so good. 70s, just after the mid-70s, new Orleans Queens sure know how to schmooze it. Maybe for some that seems all right. When I step out, strut down with my sugar. She'd best not talk like Barry White Mm-hmm, one time love. Take care how you use it, try to make it last all night and if you take your pick, be careful how you choose it. Sometimes it's hard to feel it bite.

Speaker 1:

I know this fucking song. You say what is it late 70s.

Speaker 2:

Not late, Just mid around the mid.

Speaker 1:

Around the mid-70s.

Speaker 2:

Just after the mid-70s.

Speaker 2:

New Orleans Queens sure know how to schmooze it. Maybe for some that seems all right. When I step out, strut down with my sugar. She'd best not talk like Barry.

Speaker 1:

White. I fucking know this. Just that first line. I know this One time love.

Speaker 2:

Take care how you use it, Try to make it last all night and if you take your pick, be careful how you choose it. Sometimes it's hard to feel it bite. Give me that first line again. New Orleans Queens sure know how to schmooze it. It's the Rolling Stones? That's a good guess. But no, it does involve a story involving one of the band members. The band had discovered that a lot of these Queens New Orleans are in drag. They didn't know it.

Speaker 1:

I don't know, I beat myself up over this.

Speaker 2:

Speaker 2:

I think you're going to get this. Nineties, no, no, no, probably early 2000s.

Speaker 1:

No.

Speaker 2:

Very early. I'm not afraid of anything in this world. There's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't already heard. I'm just trying to find a decent melody, a song that I can sing in my own company, and it's one of my favorite songs of theirs. Say it again I'm not afraid of anything in this world. There's nothing you can throw at me that I haven't already heard. I'm just trying to find a decent melody, a song that I can sing in my own company. I'm fucking dying, I don't know.

Speaker 1:

It's frustrating, I know it's in the course.

Speaker 2:

Yeah because you stuck in the moment that you can't get out Fucking you too. I sat in a bar here in Pearl River and I put that on the jukebox to repeat like 50 times. And then the bartender is very nice and I sing Irish accent and turn the fucking song off. Yeah, I loved it.

Speaker 1:

That's my friend Mark Talbot, uncle Talbot Gretzky. Yeah, all right. Yeah, that's his favorite song stuck in a moment. Yeah, let's do some living after we die. That's the line.

Speaker 2:

What decade?

Speaker 1:

It's the last. It's like the last real line. Oh, it's the 70s. It's the last real line of the song and then the name of the song comes in as far as a chorus goes let's do some living after we die.

Speaker 2:

It's my favorite.

Speaker 1:

It's my favorite line in a song ever. I think it's the greatest line in music history. And of course I love Morrissey and Nick Cave. They have some great fucking lyrics, but that one sentence let's do some living after we die.

Speaker 2:

Living, let die. Now no Wild horses.

Speaker 1:

Oh man, the stones yeah Little imperial Wild wild horses, All right. Give me one. I'm fucking dying here.

Speaker 2:

I'm going to give you an easy one, just to see it now, just to make you feel good.

Speaker 1:

But the last one was easy too.

Speaker 2:

You're an essay in glamour. He's part in the grammar. But you're everybody's, every schoolboy's dream. And there's my guy. You're Celtic United. But, baby, I've decided you're the best team I've ever seen.

Speaker 1:

Anyone a call a woman, a soccer team.

Speaker 2:

Come on, you know it yeah.

Speaker 1:

Celtic. It's Rod Stewart. It's Rod Stewart, celtic United. You're the best. You're in my heart.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and he was projecting his love of Celtic. Because he's Scottish yeah, still goes to every game. He's a season ticket. And Manchester United yeah, most girls if they said you're calling me a football team, right.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, All right this one. It's a 90 song.

Speaker 2:

Okay.

Speaker 1:

So now that it's over, can we just say goodbye? I'd like to move on and make the most of the night. Maybe a kiss before I leave you. This way, the lips are so cold I don't know what else to say. Ah.

Speaker 2:

I know those lyrics.

Speaker 1:

So now that it's over, can we just say goodbye? I'd like to move on and make the most of the night. Maybe a kiss before I leave you. This way, your lips are so cold, I don't know what else to say. Nineties I'm pretty sure it's nineties. It might be early 2000s, but I'm pretty sure, it's not always.

Speaker 2:

No no some strange reason I thought for a second was that they wouldn't write something that tender.

Speaker 1:

No, this song is pretty fucking dark. He's talking to a girl who he's kidnapped and murdered, tom Petty, no, oh, they can marry Jane's last. Yeah, that's just democracy or whatever, so now that it's over, can we just say good night? Down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down, down down. I'd like to move on and make the most of the night.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I want to do a face plant, but I'll break my glass.

Speaker 1:

Tell me, tell me Maybe a kiss before I leave you this way. Damn, damn damn. Down, down, down, down, down, down, down down. Your lips are so cold I don't know what else to say. Down, down, down down. Dying and chill Guitar. Oh, no more tears.

Speaker 2:

Oh god, I was sticking to something else.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's a great song. This is harder than I thought it was going to be, all right.

Speaker 2:

Give me one. This is probably not not going to say it's from the 80s. All right, if you negotiate the minefield and the drive and beat the dogs and cheat the cold electronic eyes and if you make it past the shotguns in the hall, dial the combination, open the priest's toll and if him and if I'm in, I'll tell you that I can't say the second part of that line. I have no idea. It's followed by a large shotgun blast and someone going woohoo.

Speaker 1:

I don't know.

Speaker 2:

Final cut oh, okay, yeah, one of the greatest songs ever written, because it's about a soldier and he's going to do it and he doesn't do it.

Speaker 1:

Right, amazing, yeah, okay.

Speaker 2:

When the first time I heard that I was actually. It's like that spring scene song about the state trooper. I'm listening. Is he going to do it, you know? And it's like he doesn't and ends with a beautiful melody at the end.

Speaker 1:

Right, all right. This one 80 song my mother and my brothers used to breathe in clean air and dreaming I'm a doctor. It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand. Oh, I feel so Goes into the chorus of the name of the song. My mother and my brothers used to used to breathe in clean air and dreaming I'm a doctor. It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I feel so. When you say gun in hand, I that and you were kind of saying it in the rhythm of the song.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's hard not to.

Speaker 2:

It's a male singer, obviously.

Speaker 1:

My mother and my brothers used to breathe in clean air and dreaming I'm a doctor. It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand. Oh, I feel so.

Speaker 2:

This is frustrating.

Speaker 1:

This is my mother and my brothers used to breathe in clean air and dream that I'm a doctor. It's hard to be a man when there's a gun in your hand. Oh, I feel so. Something happens and I'm here, I had that too and I'll fucked up just now, but because I'm still thinking of Ozzy, I was thinking that, like Ozzy, All right, give me one.

Speaker 2:

I got some that I know you would never get, and it's not fair, because I was just picking out lyrics that I like. Oh, you'll get this one. I'm going to give you an easy one. Hey, scott, you want to know something? I want a girl with extensions in her hair Bamboo. Cool At least two pairs. Oh, that was a yeah.

Uncle L. Uncle L, I have a couple more, I think All right. This one 90 song, okay, can drive you mad. A million lies to sell yourself is all you ever had. Don't believe in love, don't believe in hate, don't believe in anything. You, just you can't. You can't waste that you can't waste.

Speaker 2:

Oh, man, that one's, I even hit me can't, can't drive you mad.

Speaker 1:

A million lies to sell yourself is all you ever had. Don't believe in love, don't believe in hate, don't believe in anything that you can't waste. Female singer of a band Scottish.

Speaker 2:

Not cranberry son. Oh garbage. Yep Don't believe in love. Is that the name of the song? I'm bad with the names of their songs. I just know the songs by Don't believe in anything that you can't waste.

Speaker 1:

All right, okay, here we go.

Speaker 2:

This was. It's the was, it's a two. No, it's the 90s, early 90s. This band actually had an MTV semi hit. With this video. I'm giving you a couple hints which they weren't known for that Okay, and the lyrics are very touching to me. And they weren't known to be writing songs about kids Proud swagger out of the schoolyard waiting for the world's applause. Rebel without a conscience, better without a cause. Move forward. And now you're trembling on a rocky ledge, staring down into the heartless sea. Can't face life on a razor's edge. Nothing's what you thought it would be. You want to hear the pre-chorus? I guess All of us get lost in the darkness. Dreamers learn to steer by the stars. All of us do time in the gutter. Dreamers turn to look at the cars. Turn around, turn around. Don't turn your back on me and slam the door. Don't turn your back and slam the door on me. Lou would get it. That's my big hint to you.

Speaker 1:

Fuck, I don't know.

Speaker 2:

Maybe you didn't see it on MTV, maybe you didn't follow the song. What is it? It's the Pass by Rush. Nah, I didn't, and they wrote a song about teen suicide, which is like here's a band that writes about dungeons that I couldn't see.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, they were all over MTV.

Speaker 2:

I'm like what the fuck were they doing on MTV?

Speaker 1:

This one. I believe this came out in the 90s. Well, people, I've been here before, I know this room and I've walked this floor. You see, I used to live alone before I knew you and I've seen your flag on the marble arch. But listen, love. Love is not some kind of victory march. No, it's a cold and it's a broken and not smashing pumpkins. Lou says Lou sent me a text. Good show guys, the lyrics thing is hard. Almost glad I'm not on. Fuck you, Lou, from the balcony.

Speaker 2:

I'm typing that to this. Is it easy? Yeah, not smashing pumpkins. No no, I know that.

Speaker 1:

Well, people, I've been here before, I know this room and I've walked the floor. You see, I used to live alone before I knew you and I've seen your flag on the marble arch. But listen, love. Love is not some kind of victory march. No, it's a cold and it's a broken.

Speaker 2:

I can't.

Speaker 1:

Hallelujah, hallelujah.

Speaker 2:

One of the best songs I've ever written and put in. Fucking shredded me, shrek killed it.

Speaker 1:

How the fuck, how do you get tied up in your fucking kitchen by like it goes, all it's fucking all over the place. If you ask me, that's beautiful, beautiful song, but it's all over the place. Yeah, it's like tragedy and depression and fucking, I don't know. All right, give me one.

Speaker 2:

I'm going to give you another easy one.

Speaker 1:

You've been saying that, but then evidently they're not that easy.

Speaker 2:

So, scott, I met her in a hotel lobby. She was masturbating with a magazine.

Speaker 1:

Oh, that's how you always still. Yeah, prince darling Nikki.

Speaker 2:

I was a teenager and like what the fuck is this lyric? Yeah? And done by Dave girl. They covered it oh yeah, here, and with his voice masturbating with the magazine.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's not like Prince, no, I got one more.

Speaker 2:

Oh, you got more Okay.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, all right, this one it's a 70 song. It's kind of a classic 70 song. I could feel hot flames of a fire roaring at my back as she disappeared, but soon she returned. In her hand was a bottle of wine and then the other, a glass. She poured some of the wine from the bottle into the glass and raised it to her lips and as she and just before she drank it, she said is it sung by a female Nope?

Speaker 2:

It's a complete one back. Is it Billy Joel?

Speaker 1:

No One of the one of the underrated great voices of of in rock and roll. Well, dave Phillips has put the. Put the answer up at the top.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I know it spilled the wine. Dig that out.

Speaker 1:

And just before she drank it she said spill the wine.

Speaker 2:

Dig that. Yeah, yeah, yeah yeah.

Speaker 1:

David Patty, that's their time, buddy, that is their time right there. That's why they both knew that they were like oh, that shit's easy, that should see another one, All right.

Speaker 2:

And these children that you spit on as they try to change their worlds? They're immune to your consultations. They're immune to their quite aware of what they're going through.

Speaker 1:

And these David Bowie, these children changes.

Speaker 2:

That's a very good verse. Yeah very, very well written and I like in breakfast club how it comes out in the glass shatters, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

All right, I got one for you, although I'm not making plans. I hope that you'll understand. There's a reason why Close your eyes, close your eyes. Close your eyes. No more broken hearts. We're better off a pot. Let's give it a try, tell me, tell me. What decade? 80s? Probably my. One of my maybe top three favorite songs by this group Say it again Although I'm not making plans, I hope that you'll understand.

Speaker 1:

There's a reason why Close your eyes? No, close your. Close your close your eyes. No more broken hearts. We're better off a part. Let's give it a try, tell me, tell me.

Speaker 2:

Why no? Tell me, tell me. Oh, it's on the tip of my tongue.

Speaker 1:

That's kind of a chorus.

Speaker 2:

Tell me, ain't nothing like now?

Speaker 1:

No.

Speaker 2:

I'm giving up.

Speaker 1:

Tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me, tell me sweet little lies.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, okay.

Speaker 1:

This shit ain't easy.

Speaker 2:

All right, give me another one. I'm going to read this one like William Shatner. It's the only way I can do it. It's hard, yeah. At night I walked this stinking street past the crazies on my block.

Speaker 1:

Let's stop Now. I got fucking Shatner sitting on a stool smoking a cigarette in my head looking up at the sky. All right, start again, Start again. You fucked me up with that.

Speaker 2:

I can't go pee, so you don't make me laugh, all right.

Speaker 1:

One on. Yeah, that's right.

Speaker 2:

You know, at night I walked this stinking street and I passed the crazies on my block and I see the same old faces and I hear the same old talk and I'm searching for the latest thing breaking this routine. I'm talking some new kicks, one's like you ain't never seen.

Speaker 1:

I've seen yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, you got it. I can't think of it though. No, come on, come on, all right. And I walked through these stinking streets very early 80s Probably their poorest selling album with this singer, but it's my favorite album and it's also the only album from them that had the F bomb on it, if I think and write.

Speaker 1:

I know this song. I know it. I'm not going to waste the time.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, van Halen the main streets.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah, all right, I'm going to give you one more 90s, probably a classic 90 song. It wasn't a, it wasn't on the charts, like it didn't chart, but it's probably the most popular song and I'll give you that. Okay, so I'm going to give you the lyrics and I feel so much depends on the weather. So is it raining in your bedroom? And I see that these are the eyes of disarray. Would you even care?

Speaker 2:

The first line. I knew that first line, I know it.

Speaker 1:

And I feel so much depends on the weather and the name of the song isn't even in the lyrics, which is kind of it. So is it raining in your bedroom? And I see that these are the eyes of disarray. Would you even care?

Speaker 2:

I dream Academy Nope, 90s, 90s Too much dead air, I can't. And I know from that first line what is it. Let me see if I'm right.

Speaker 1:

Oh, it's a stone temple, pilots plush and I see.

Speaker 2:

Oh no, I was disarray. I was thinking of a lighter pop song. Yeah, oh, okay, and I feel it.

Speaker 1:

You know what that song is based on. Scott Weedland heard he saw the news report on Remember the Pauly class, the girl in California that the dude went in through her bedroom window and kidnapped her.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And they found her dead.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he said he saw. It's kind of based on that If you, if you read the lyrics and you, now that you know that that's the theme of it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Because that was bizarre. I mean, that kind of was like out of way, out of fucking that feel, this dude climbed in her window.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, she was a little girl. It took her out the window.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

And then murdered her.

Speaker 2:

That scares me more than any horror movie. T-r-n-a-t.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah. So that's so. Now, whenever you hear the song, plush, listen to the lyrics in a kind of way, so you can kind of pin it together. I got into an argument with a DJ in California. I called up something about that song. And I called up and she goes no, it wasn't that. I said I'm telling you, that's what it's based on. So no, it was something else. I said I'm telling you, I saw an interview with them. That's what he said. He saw that story and he's in. That's where he kind of got the idea what a great lyricist can hear that horrible story.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, someone without talent for writing lyrics would come out with something that was so obvious like, oh, why are you saying about that?

Speaker 1:

You know yeah.

Speaker 2:

And that's also a song that gets in your mind and you can't get it out. Yeah, my oldies.

Speaker 1:

I saw them in concert in Albuquerque, new Mexico, at the University of New Mexico. I was again working the stage at security and he came out fucking in a polyester fucking suit, bell bottoms with the fucking high heels, the polyester shirt and the jack. You know the matching leisure suit came out like a leisure suit, right, yeah, and it's. He has the chest open, he has the gold chains just a fucking rock star right. And he was all over the fucking stage, right, all of the dude did not stop, but halfway through the show they kind of stay stopped and they walked off the stage. It wasn't like a break or anything. And all of a sudden, from the ceiling, you see something coming down from the ceiling and it's this big round stage, right, probably I don't know, 15 by 15, 20 by 20. And it's got furniture like nice, like living room furniture right.

Speaker 1:

Candles. Well, they like the candles. And then they come out from the side right and they go in there and they take their acoustic guitars and they did a whole acoustic set right in the middle of the show. It was so fucking cool. It was like I'm there for the security. You know, I'm supposed to be looking at the crowd. Fuck that. I'm right at the stage. I'm watching this shit.

Speaker 2:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

It was fucking great they had the big candle, like the big candle sticks that are probably six feet high and just fucking lowered from the ceiling, like that's like around the time they did this.

Speaker 2:

It must have been the unplugged era when they did that show, so I was in Albuquerque around 90.

Speaker 1:

I was there from 95 to 97. I was stationed there, so it's probably like 96.

Speaker 2:

So, yeah, yeah around that time yeah, when I saw Rush from, I believe, Third Row Tommy, if you're listening, tell where you got me the tickets and we were on Getty's side, so there was like it was one of those outdoor venues that every city has in their suburbs, you know.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

And there was this old security guard needs to stand in there and you know, you could tell he's just every event he's in, he's just nothing's moving him, he's just like this. But then when Neil Peart I never told Lou this one Neil Peart did his drum solo. He just turned around and he started looking.

Speaker 1:

Hey, start playing air drums Like crazy.

Speaker 2:

But he was like and he was this old guy with a crew, cut you know, yeah, yeah, he's doing this and I'm like that's. I said I should jump on stage at this point, shouldn't?

Speaker 1:

I. No, I want to see the rest of the show.

Speaker 2:

I don't want to jump on stage.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, nice, all right, let's move on from that. That was that. Shit ain't easy. No, it's not we're going to put Lou through that next week. So Lou is not free from this.

Speaker 2:

Speaker 2:

Speaker 1:

Yes, let's start to research.

Speaker 2:

He's going to be sick next week.

Speaker 1:

I'm not going to do any singles or album charts because we didn't really cover a year or anything in particular, so I'm going to get rid of those. And we're going to jump right into this day of music. There we go, november 16th 2014. You two, singer bonos, involved in what doctors call the high energy bicycle accident. I remember this.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that they recently fucking re-released and changed the lyric, or they took fat bottom girls off because fat liberal women were fucking offended by it. That's all offended me.

Speaker 2:

If the thought of that, the thought of fat women riding bikes, was pretty nasty to me.

Speaker 1:

So I defend there's a lot of people that like that shit, so it didn't offend them. Why is it going to be about?

Speaker 2:

you. We need Lou for this one. He's on my side on this. No, so it's one word would come out to describe it perfectly audaciously baseless.
