That wasn't a debut album, though, oh I thought we were just doing albums of 70. Well, we're doing both. I would do both. I'm digging up debut albums, whatever you want to bring up.

Speaker 2:

All right. So a debut album, gentle Giants debut, came out and I, just in my fifties, have started liking them. I didn't like them for years. That's an odd prog man it is. The singers would turn me off. They felt like he's begging.

Okay, oh, jesus Christ, superstar came out that year.

Speaker 1:

Oh yeah, here we go again, here we go again.

Atomic rooster.

Speaker 2:

A band that Carl Palmer was in before the LP for your pay had to be right before.

Speaker 2:

Band.

Speaker 3:

Wasn't the late 60s, early 70s people getting back to the country, vibe getting back to the land? The stock and the band and all that.

Speaker 1:

You know what I always say. I always say we're in the 60s and 70s, the mid to late 60s, into the early 70s, on steroids, right, because back then they called it and this was an album Ecology. You have to care for the ecology. Ecology. Well, today it went from global warming to climate change, because they can't justify the word warming.

Speaker 2:

You really want me to argue with you, don't you?

Speaker 1:

I'm just saying it's at the same cycle. It's the same cycle. It was the whole thing about the ecology and all this man this year, this, oh, the world's going to end. Hey, remember Acid Rain in the 80s? Oh, the world was fucking over it was done.

Yeah, yeah, he had in 70?. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3:

Alice Cooper's second album Easy Action.

Speaker 2:

That was a very weird album. That was very Frank Zappish.

Speaker 1:

So Dean says Alice Cooper ruled the 70s. I don't know about ruled. I mean so the pencil part of the country you were.

Speaker 2:

in some parts of the country he ruled Well he came out with four albums in one year.

Speaker 1:

I believe three or four out in one year, I know that. And then he did it again and then they broke up. So I mean, then he came out with Welcome to my Nightmare and what like 77.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and something like that. That was it. He never really he had songs that had staying power, but he wasn't consistent throughout the 70s.

Speaker 2:

When he went solo with Nightmare, it's when he was uneven, you know, but he was doing what he wanted to do, you know he had the name, he had the reputation, he had the show.

Speaker 3:

Did he go to over the top, schlocky?

Speaker 1:

Well, so you go from, say, billion dollar babies to only women bleed, only women bleed, only women bleed, only women bleed. Okay, great, nice song, Nice radio song. But come on, alice, the fuck really Like. The goal is to muscle of love and then fucking. Only women bleed. Tell me who the winner is.

Speaker 2:

Let's make it very 45.

Speaker 1:

He lament 74. So right.

Speaker 3:

What album was you and me on? Because you wouldn't know that was Alice Cooper, unless someone told you.

Speaker 1:

Right.

Speaker 3:

That was like a mid 70s pop ballad.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he started doing I guess that's where the money was and he started trying to buy into it. Well, he made his money, he got on the top 40. Yeah, you know so.

Speaker 2:

I don't know, it was from his album Lace and Whiskey. I don't even know about that album. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

What year was it? Lace and Whiskey See? So that's like, where did that come out?

Speaker 2:

77. Yeah, I didn't know about that. See, I don't know a lot about Alice Cooper.

Speaker 3:

I don't know much beyond muscle of love or that come right up to billion dollar babies.

Speaker 1:

That's a good album.

Speaker 3:

That's the peak for me as far as muscle of love was the last album with the Alice Cooper group before he won solo.

Speaker 1:

I'll give you. I'll give Dean this. I mean I'm an Alice Cooper fan, Don't get me wrong. His latest stuff yeah, just kind of he started trying to get all the eighties and getting them.

Speaker 3:

Didn't he get metal, kind of metal.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he was trying to stay relevant in that.

Speaker 2:

But he saw Ozzy go metal and survive and be a big, so he tried to do it. But you got to have songs and the songs weren't as good in the eighties, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah and um, but I got to say I, I, I could put you. You might be able to put um Alice Cooper's greatest hits up against a lot of other greatest hits albums, because his greatest hits album is fucking good, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, it's just great.

Speaker 1:

Literally from start to finish. It's fucking good.

Speaker 3:

I heard I'm 18 yesterday.

Speaker 1:

I mean, come on, like right to talk about staying power.

Speaker 3:

And I don't feel we're being 62 and singing I'm 18 in the car. You ever see the video for that?

Speaker 1:

With their live in a studio, like and they got the fucking psychedelic shit going in the background and it's like it's very raw, but it's, it's. Check it out. Check out the live version, like from when it first came out. It's, it's pretty good. But I would put Alice Cooper's greatest hits up against a lot of greatest hits albums and it holds its own.

Speaker 2:

I think double album.

Speaker 1:

It's a double album right so oh, and the cover now? The cover itself is fucking ultra classic. Ultra classic the gangsters leaning up against the cards and drawing.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

And then, like there's one, I think, when you open the gatefold there's all these other. It's like another drawing you got like Edwin G Robinson in there, like it's kind of like a Sergeant Pepper thing, just a great, great album cover man.

Speaker 3:

Is that what Marcus talking about? Satin and Dr Pepper?

Speaker 1:

I don't know what the hell he probably Googled that. I'm sure he Googled that because Mark Flynn, fucking Google King, doesn't know shit about Alice Cooper. That fucking promise.

Speaker 2:

It's a joke Lace and whiskey, satin and Dr Pepper.

Speaker 1:

I was gonna say if he found something obscure like that, he's Googling right now.

Speaker 2:

It could be a bootleg. We all know it could be a bootleg.

Speaker 1:

Don't trust him, mark, don't trust Mark Smith, don't trust Mark Flynn.

Speaker 2:

He's a. He's a. He's a friend of yours. I have to trust all your friends.

Speaker 1:

Well, that's a mistake.

Speaker 2:

Oh, okay.

Speaker 1:

That's a mistake.

Speaker 3:

How innocent. Yeah, fuck you, lou. That's what's refreshing about Mark, though. When he's so innocent, this is wild eyed naivete, you know.

Speaker 2:

It's a little fabulous.

Speaker 1:

You have some real wild eyed naivete there, Mark.

Speaker 3:

It's almost same. It's kind of a bitch it's so obvious, duck you.

Speaker 2:

No, what's that break rate? Overdub, forget you, mother, forgetter.

Speaker 1:

We already said, led Zeppelin 3 came out that year. Pitball machine, right? Yeah, let me see.

Speaker 2:

You know it came out a a a year ago, a little jazz, but Bitches Brew, which was a huge album. Miles went from jazz to that. Yeah, Everybody else, I get it or you don't get it. I get it, I love it.

Speaker 1:

The man who sold the world. Yeah, I give him the Vanna. They did a great cover of that. They did do it. They do do a good job with that.

Speaker 3:

I think I have a debut album here.

Speaker 1:

What do you got?

Speaker 3:

Nitty-gritty dirt man.

Speaker 1:

Oh, yeah, oh.

Speaker 3:

It had Mr Bojangles yeah.

Speaker 1:

People know who they are.

Speaker 3:

Yeah Right, they did a version of House of Poo Corner. What the hell is that? You never. You never heard the Logins and Messina version? No, really.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I'm young. I'm young, they say, you know, you were.

Speaker 3:

You were alive. House of Poo.

Speaker 1:

Corner.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, it's off uh sitting in.

Speaker 1:

What's that? What's that house?

Speaker 2:

in San Francisco. Don't pick on San Francisco, fuck San Francisco. I beat you on. Hey, uh, not a debut. It looks like a debut, but Elton John by. Elton John came out in 70.

Speaker 1:

Was that the Elton John?

Speaker 3:

band.

Speaker 2:

Uh, it's the album with your song.

Speaker 3:

I just said Elton John. No, I think it doesn't say the band yeah, okay.

Speaker 2:

But he had an album out in 69, I think before that, which was never. It wasn't officially released till years later. So you could say this is like his, his uh debut in America, crustby.

Speaker 3:

Stills National Young Deja Vu came out Great album Vujade. That's when you had a feeling this never happened before.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, oh my God, that's our humor. It's nerdy.

Speaker 1:

That should get out of the penalty box free. Joke that was my, that was it, no more.

Speaker 2:

Hey, you know what, you know what came out.

Speaker 3:

I bet Deja Vu. I was feeling, this shit has happened before.

Speaker 2:

Now I want to put them away. Um come to my garden by Minnie Ripperton came out.

Speaker 1:

Wow, oh, I thought that was a porn movie that Dean Farron put up on there.

Speaker 3:

Come to my hairy garden. That was house of poo corner. It's all about the hair.

Speaker 2:

Oh, that's uh, it killed me. I, I and I'm embarrassed. I was laughing like that on the show man.

Speaker 3:

That was the.

Speaker 1:

Osmonds. The Osmonds album came out in 1970. Do you love them? So Jackson five and the Osmonds both came out the same time. Wow, oh, so it seems. So it seems you would think we would know these things, but my, my fucking mic computer is slow for some reason.

Speaker 2:

Uh, I believe I know my sister Stacy had it. I always saw the album.

Speaker 1:

Well, t Rex, t Rex 70.

Speaker 3:

It's about right, ringo star sentimental journey, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Oh.

Speaker 3:

McCartney's first record, mccartney.

Speaker 1:

See, that's an incest porn right there. Oh, it could be.

Speaker 3:

I'm just saying, it could be step mom here we go again.

Speaker 2:

Just say I'm told me not to come. Uh, let us talk.

Speaker 1:

About Morrison hotel.

Speaker 2:

It's one of my. It's probably the second favorite album of theirs. It's got some odd stories on it, so I like it.

Speaker 1:

Well, why Dean wants to talk about it, max. So I guess, oh, I thought you wanted to talk. No, he, dean Francis. Let us talk about Morrison hotel.

Speaker 2:

For me as far as production it sounds like. It's always reminded me of an album that could have been recorded in the last 20 years. I had great production and it just flowed. It was one of their albums that, like their debut, is my favorite, but that album just flows really good. I'm a spot Short and sweet.

Speaker 1:

It's not anything you know what's the track listing on it.

Speaker 3:

Roadhouse Blues.

Speaker 2:

Yep.

Speaker 3:

I just got a few songs. Peace Frog is on it.

Speaker 1:

I love that song Land ho, I love that song.

Speaker 3:

Peace Frog.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's so different, man yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, Waiting for the sun is on that right Waiting for the sun. Is it waiting for the sun? And album yeah, but there's a song on there waiting for the sun.

Speaker 3:

So that's a Morrison hotel.

Speaker 2:

Hold on.

Speaker 3:

I'll be dipped If.

Speaker 2:

I'm wrong, I'm dipped in shit, so I saw a video, the other day, you know what's on there?

Speaker 1:

The doors after Jim Morrison died and Raymond's Eric tried to sing.

Speaker 2:

They put two albums out without him.

Speaker 1:

And I watched this video and you just see how much Raymond's Eric is trying to sing like Jim Morrison. Oh, it's horrible, it's horrible.

Speaker 2:

It's so obvious and they can't like they're almost.

Speaker 1:

So the difference I got out of it is, post Jim Morrison, what they were trying to. They couldn't recreate that because they sounded too tight. Yeah, it just sounded too tight, too polished, too studio-ish, whereas even in the studio with Jim Morrison, there was just a loose feeling to the music. Yeah, you know.

Speaker 2:

He loosened them up, that's right.

Speaker 1:

And they you know, it's Eric trying to deepen his voice and, yeah, I was like, oh man.

Speaker 2:

On top of that, the music just wasn't that good. I tried to listen to them.

Speaker 1:

They tried to salvage something they got to get them Did they actually release his albums.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, two albums. Yeah, I want to look them up, I'll tell you we did a segment Lou on music.

Speaker 2:

I got to write Music Relish about bands that shouldn't.

Speaker 3:

Random Relish, by the way, yeah.

Speaker 2:

So I was a singer and I said I think the Doors is the best example of shit.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, we did. You know what we did an episode back like fucking episode five me and Jack of bands that lost their lead singers. I might want to redo that one again, yeah.

Speaker 2:

That's a really good to know.

Speaker 1:

Now, you know, it's still, it's like, okay, it's kind of a repeat. But now I have you guys, your input, your you know, kind of twist on it. I don't, it's not, it's no way it's going to be a Well, the more the quality is going to be a lot better.

Speaker 2:

Oh, come on.

Speaker 1:

No, the quality, the sound quality and the whole thing. I mean, yeah, that's what you meant.

Speaker 1:

The conversation is there with me and Jack and it's the same. But the you know big on the sound quality. I hate those earlier episodes. It's so cringy. It's like when you hear them back in the day, when I listened to Howard Stern and they would do his like beyond vacation, they would do the best of oh yeah, here in old show and it's kind of like very tinny. Yes, like his voice was higher and it just sounded very radio-ish.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you know and I'm sure he listens to that and goes oh Son of a yeah.

Speaker 3:

I skimmed the old music relish ones going. Even this is going back when we were doing doing the cameras, you know. But even the earlier ones were just a little rough. We had those microphones with the built in reverb, you know.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

I think that's it for a lot of podcasts, though how they begin.

Speaker 1:

Like I always say, when you see somebody like on one of these podcasts, facebook was like what am I going to do? I want to start a. And it was like this. I said get a good mic and sound professional right off the bat. Don't build up to a nice mic, buy a good mic or get a good, you know, audio processor and just do it right and it doesn't break the bank to do that.

Speaker 2:

It was relatively, and I have this great mic from Tom Spelone who gave it to me. Thank you, Tom.

Speaker 1:

See props out so you can pick up, so let's get a couple more albums. I want to talk about you you guys mentioned it today and I love, I love this artist, but we'll talk about it as soon as when we when we tie this up here. You guys mentioned it today.

Yeah, traffic. John Wally Cornelis die.

Speaker 2:

Sorry, I really, if you just screw up my name sometime just say it wrong how can I say it wrong Smite.

Speaker 3:

Mark.

Speaker 1:

Smite Smith. So let's move on. I want to talk about this artist who, I've said a lot of times, just doesn't get the respect that she deserves, and that's Jonah. I'm a trading and this lady has fucking done it all. She's been around for like 50 years, right From the late 60s. Just an absolute true artist, very secretive, and somebody. Somebody had a quote about her. Let me see so. Someone says she's a little long-winded, but that's mostly because she puts so much thought into her relationships, which, in turn, is because she puts so much feeling into them. This is one of those rare pop stars who invariably serious, who's invariably serious but never pompous, which is why she isn't a bigger star. That about sums it up. She just could have been bigger than she was, at least in America. She didn't sell out.

Speaker 2:

They probably wouldn't have heard of the Gensples, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, she's very private, you know, but she let me see. She says she's played. She plays the sixth string, the 12 string electric guitars. She's played on ovation acoustic instruments. What's ovation acoustic instruments?

Speaker 3:

Is acoustic guitar. Had a rounded back.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3:

Which were weird to play.

Speaker 1:

She said I'm a bit of a hitter. You see, I bash and I like to have everything going at once. Bass harmony melly. This is why I love ovations. They're very powerful sounding guitars and when I hit the strings they ring with a nice clear, percussive but not overly bright sound that highlights the rhythms I like to play. She's played the Fender Strat. She's played them all.

Speaker 3:

The friend of mine. On his Facebook page yesterday he posted listen to Joan Armitrating's third record on the turntable. That's what you put. Yeah, that's what you said yesterday. Yeah, I pasted that yeah yeah, but so like you know people, who really love music that's her fan base.

Speaker 1:

So she says this is how kind of we'll say decorated she is. She's been nominated. I'm congested right now. I don't know where that came from. She's nominated three times for Grammy Award, twice for a Brit Award as best female vocalist. She received the Ivor Novello Award for outstanding contemporary song collection in 1996. That's heavy. She's received honorary degrees from Liverpool John Morris University, university of Birmingham, university of Northampton, aston University, the Royal Scottish Academy of Music and Drama, the Open University at the University of West Indies. In 2022, she received an honorary doctorate from the University of St Andrews.

Speaker 1:

A appointed member of the Order of the British Empire In 2001,. Birthday honors and commander of the Order of the British Empire in 2020, birthday honors and the service to music, charity and equal rights In October 2011,. Presented with the BASCA Gold Badge Award in recognition for her contribution to music In May 2012,. Before her concert in Alk's Talkster, something part of an acoustic festival. She's presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award. She was presented with a Lifetime Achievement Award in 2016,. Bbc Radio 2 Folk Awards. She played soul. I think. She won a Grammy in Fasol, a nominated for a soul album. She played jazz. She got nominated for a Grammy in Jazz. Jazz, I mean, what does this lady have to do? Okay, she checks all the boxes. Right, she's female, she's black, she's a lesbian right, she checks all the boxes that they look for. Now, this lady is not in the fucking Rocker Hall of Fame, but fucking Green Day is Because she doesn't make money.

Speaker 2:

She doesn't make money. She hasn't made that money. That's what it is.

Speaker 1:

You know what Her in, what's her name that just died this past year from Canada, grudleifewood.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, Grudleifewood.

Speaker 1:

You know what? They didn't choose to come to America and kiss their ass, the record companies ass, and do all they think so. I was introduced to her in 1980 when her album Me, myself and I came out yeah. Right Fucking great album.

Speaker 2:

Me, Myself and I.

Speaker 3:

I don't see it here on Dispatterford Me, Myself and I. That was the top 40 hit.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

In America.

Speaker 1:

Then she came out with another album after that. Walk Under Ladders yeah, walking Under Ladders yep. And she was kind of like in it right In the beginning of the 80s. She was there and she was selling out. Then she just kind of was like you know what? I think it was kind of a dah.

Speaker 3:

It was a conscious decision.

Speaker 1:

I don't need this shit because she had all the makings Right, but today how she does it, was she cute enough back then?

Speaker 3:

The go-go's were cute, was she cute?

Speaker 1:

No, she wasn't. She was very plain looking black girl. She had the after, so was.

Speaker 3:

Tracy Chapman yeah.

Speaker 1:

She had the natural and she just had it. I saw her in concert at the Orphium Theater in Boston. She was fucking great. Right Greats her voice, even today. Go on to YouTube and check out her performance on Jules Hollands show. Okay, what's the name of that show? Jules Hollands. What is it Live with Jules Hollands or something like that?

Speaker 2:

I can't remember the guy from Squeeze. Yeah, that was a great show. That's an awesome show.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, go check out some of her live videos. She's fucking great. She gets zero recognition from the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, zero, not even nominated.

Speaker 2:

Again, she stuck to her root. She stuck to what she wanted to do. You know, when she was kind of getting big, at that point Probably a lot of people circling around her were going to make you a star. Their motives were to make money.

Speaker 3:

She resisted it. They wanted her to write another Me Myself Fire, probably 10 of them.

Speaker 1:

Or there's this. Again, it's very private. I don't think she wasn't out yet. Yeah, right, she was gay. She probably wanted to keep that, try to keep her private life. She really did say that. She went out of her way. She doesn't want her private life, never wanted her private life, and she said people would ask her and she wouldn't really. She just had to keep it a mystery because that makes it even better. Right, like looking Marcy, marcy, the fucking brilliant job.

Speaker 3:

Michael Stipe did the same thing.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and whatever you know, and Marcy, to this day, you won't get anything out of them. You just won't. Michael Stipe came out and just said, yeah, I'm gay, right, but you won't get anything out of her. You won't get anything out of these artists that just kind of it's not a thing to them. Like this has nothing to do with my music.

Speaker 3:

Right, I'm not going to start.

Speaker 1:

Use it as a soap box.

Speaker 3:

You know, stipe said he was an equal opportunity lech.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so there you go. You know great, listen the guy's brilliant. No joke, right, he probably joke. He probably laughed at it too Sure.

Speaker 2:

I have a good quote here from Joan People who, like my music, have a legitimate interest in me. But I need to retain some privacy, not to be telling people what's going on or what I feel when you go home. The reason it's beautiful is because it's personal to you and the people you want to include in it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, that's a great statement. And she's solid man. She's solid. No, she's. I think she's Jamaican, I think she's half.

Speaker 2:

St Kits, she's half from. Yeah, yeah, I was just there, you were just there.

Speaker 1:

And she came from a musical family, I believe. Let me see, when she was three year olds, the parents moved to Birmingham and she had to go live with her grandmother in Antigua. Then she joined the distinct. Now the father was a cop and her mother was a housewife. Father had played in a band, okay, and his youth later forbidding his children from touching his guitar. Don't touch that, don't touch that. But she was just gifted. She started at 14. She started on the piano and writing shit.

Speaker 2:

So she, so they moved to Birmingham, but then she went to live elsewhere.

Speaker 1:

So the parents and her two brothers went to live in Birmingham and she got sent to live with her grandmother in Antigua All right Cause if she had stayed in Birmingham doing the timeline, she might have joined Black Sabbath.

Speaker 2:

Now she would be like I don't have a gig.

Speaker 1:

Is there a joke in there? No Black Sabbath. No, wow, black woman Sabbath. Maybe that would have been the name.

Speaker 2:

Birmingham. She could have joined you as priest too.

Speaker 3:

Someone's being a little tone deaf, so deaf.

Speaker 2:

Oh, you told me you're going to hit me tonight, so deaf.

Speaker 1:

I'm just pronouncing my.

Speaker 3:

My name Scott.

Speaker 2:

All right, mr Calico, I'm going to say 50 times Calico, calico, calico, I am Calico.

Speaker 1:

Are we all in agreement that she should probably be in the Rocker Hall of Fame?

Speaker 3:

Absolutely, I think, in a special category because nobody really knows her except for music fans. But I mean, at this point I think it means more to have an Ivor Novello award than Rocker Hall of Fame.

Speaker 1:

And I'm sure she knows that she's a very intelligent woman.

Speaker 3:

Look at those other things you rattled off. I mean that's a lot of, that's a lot of accolades right there.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, she's, she's very intelligent woman. She's not, you know, she's nobody's fool, you know, and she's been in the business a long time.

Speaker 2:

So so I'm I'm seeing here you picked my interest because I only know a couple songs from the very Love and Affection is a fucking great.

Speaker 1:

That was her first hit in the United States. Love and Affection fucking great song, man.

Speaker 2:

I was going to ask you if I go into a deep dive and start listening to her. Should I? Start out with me, myself and I.

Speaker 1:

No, go before that, go for Love and Affection all the way from America. I think that might all the way from America might be on me myself. I Actually yeah Me myself. I it's just a good album it's. It's different, it was different, so I think that might have been another problem too. Her, her sound was totally different than what was going on at the time also.

Speaker 2:

And she changed. She didn't stick with one sound right.

Speaker 1:

I don't well, no, she did and I think maybe the times changed and she's like well, I'm not going to try to like, you know the whole like heart when they jumped into the 80s and got all glammed up.

Speaker 3:

And they started using outside songwriters.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

The same people that the hit machine songwriters that were using. But you know me myself, I fit in very well with the early 80s. Was that 1980 or 81? Yeah, that guitar thing in the beginning of the whole it was almost, it was almost new wave.

Speaker 1:

They probably. They probably called it new wave. Yeah, yeah, it's, it's 74. She was on the John Peel show, bbc 74. 74. Yeah.

Speaker 3:

However, she was young. I mean, she was old, I don't know she's been around.

Speaker 1:

Like I said, our first album came out in 72. Yeah, On October 31st 1972, she appeared BBC Radio One John Peel show. Yeah, you know, she sang four songs.

Speaker 3:

Did she have? One of your revision song contests oh, I can't wait.

Speaker 1:

Can't wait to see if she pops up. Would you care if she did? I won't know, because I go right by it.

Speaker 2:

She performed her first concert at the age of 16. Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Wow, but fucking. Green Day is in the Rockwell Hall of Fame. The go-go's are in the Rockwell Hall of Fame. Carly Simon, carly Simon, rockwell Hall of Fame, but not Joan Amitri. No, no, no, you know what? Maybe good for her.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, you know, the songwriter's Hall of Fame are different things, like, I think, america in the songwriters Hall of Fame, yeah, not in the rock in the rock Hall of Fame, yeah. But even still, I mean what? The 2024 SREM is being inducted into the songwriters Hall of Fame. Okay, tracy Chapman was snubbed, I Know to.

Now vague, that's vague. Okay, I have one. A Saturday morning cartoon, all right, had two seasons, which is Amazing, because it's still. This is.

Speaker 1:

I was a child and I thought only Jewish people had braces. So I mean, I did.

Speaker 3:

I vaguely remember that. All right, this was a.

Speaker 1:

This was a um, how can I put it? It was Like an offshoot of an original show. It says an aging entertainer and his wife take care of their six-year-old grandson. I'll say danny thomas, I've been danny thomas, I'm at the danny thomas show right. Wasn't it? Uh, wasn't he in make room for daddy? That's what that was. Yeah, this is make room for granddaddy.

Speaker 1:

Uh, let me see. Okay, okay, here's one I. It has the name in it, but I'll, I'll avoid it. Okay, a cartoon came out 1970, right, and one season again, but this cartoon never, I thought, got enough credit, never got enough reruns. This cartoon, it's fucking great cartoon. Sabrina's involved with a band of monsters, a rock band with Dracula and the wolf man of frankenstein, who scare people for their own amusement.

Speaker 3:

So, teenage, where's rosen? No, the groovy ghoulies, yeah, that's right, the ghoulies and weirdo wolfy.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, I mean frank, a dangerous drac, and weirdo wolfy. Uh, one season. That's why our brains are like tapioca pudding.

Speaker 3:

We were talking about some things that were mistakes, that were in the recording process of songs that were kept in the song yeah, or things that you didn't know were mistakes, and so the reason I started thinking about it was because on the Mavis and Pop is I saw her again there's a part where they're bringing it back down to the chorus and they're doing I saw it. There's a line when Denny Doherty goes. I saw her. I saw her again. It sounds like, if you listen, it sounds like it's part of the recording because the way it was what it was, it's a mistake.

Speaker 3:

It was a punch in that engineer Bones Howe who went on to produce the fifth dimension. He went to punch in that chorus line and it was just the one guy singing, but they were just supposed to be silenced and they were supposed to go back into the. I saw her again. It was just that there's supposed to be silence with a ride symbol. It was like I don't know what they call the musical term. It's suspension and you know, if you had this song up, you'd know the part. It's silenced, there's music and then they go into the chorus. What sounds like someone comes in early. And it wasn't. I thought it was in recording process. I thought he's just saying we jumped the gun on it, but he didn't. It was a punch in mistake by the engineer, so he tried to go back and redo it. He got them queued in but you could still hear it, and so at that point I think they were either going to do a retake, but they're rushing to trying to get a single.

Speaker 2:

They had studio time. Well, the thing was.

Speaker 3:

Lou Adler, the producer, the legendary producer. He heard it and he goes. I like it, keep it in Keep it in. So the girl from Eponema has one of those Does it really has a glitch.

Speaker 1:

So at one point you hear Astrid, she'll bet, don't go See. She starts going up in Iraq and her husband at one point he kind of prompts her. He's like you can very, very rarely you can hear a little bit he does.

Speaker 3:

He goes like oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, he gave her the note you gave her the note.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, but it's kind of mixed in there. It's mixed in there. They were like, yeah, no one's really going to notice it.

Speaker 2:

There's two mistakes. On Led Zeppelin 3, if you listen closely, before the final verse of immigrant song, robert Planko's. So now you bet he comes in too early. They left that in. Just listen close. And then on Adam, the Tiles John Bonham had like he could play the rhythm but he was being told in the song when he hear dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, dun, stop, he hears someone go like that, which I find that stuff cool.

Speaker 1:

All right. So let me see I'm looking at. Why can't we be friends, right? Why can't we be? So you don't have to wait too long to hear keyboardist Lonnie Jordan's flub in one of the most joyous R&B hits in the 70s. It happens, right in his introductory solo on the eighth chord in Jordan's pattern, he accidentally hits a note that's one half step higher than the note he intends to hit. The result is what musicians call a grace note, a tiny quick note that immediately resolves into another longer note.

Speaker 3:

But it's out of tune. It's out of tune, yeah, and it's quite obviously a mistake.

Speaker 1:

You know, yeah, let me see, wish you were here.

Speaker 3:

Have you ever heard that? Have you noticed it?

Speaker 1:

I probably have with my friends.

Speaker 3:

No, I wish you were here. I'm I'm queuing it out. It's. It's a mistake. It's at 44 seconds of the song.

Speaker 1:

Right, I don't know how you guys are getting away with that stuff. I heard you. I was watching your part you showed the other night.

Speaker 2:

You don't get this show man.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, what if it's like three seconds?

Speaker 1:

No, you can. The podcast isn't going to do it. I always get dinged by fucking YouTube, like they haven't shut me down. They say it's not a strike, but it's like they'll. They'll edit it out.

Speaker 3:

Even if it's a cough.

Speaker 1:

No, like, if you're playing the song like you guys played like 30 second clips the other day. Yeah, yeah, the burp back rack.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, 15 seconds seems to be the limit. If you limit it to 15 seconds, you're safe.

Speaker 1:

I always get fucking hit.

Speaker 3:

I don't know All right, let's just try it.

Speaker 2:

I make it. Make it under yeah. Oh, that's the sound effect though.

Speaker 3:

No, it's not.

Speaker 2:

No.

Speaker 3:

But you talked over it. Oh, sorry, that's all right, I never know, I never noticed it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, the performance is actually by Ben David Gilmour. I'm in some question of breathing and coughing on tape, including sniffles and coughing yeah, it says. While one scoodle thought claims that those noises were either done on purpose or just more radio chatter, another insist that Gilmour couldn't control the side effects of his smoking. Yeah, and that he quit cold turkey upon hearing the playback. Yeah, check it out.

Speaker 2:

I always assumed it was a radio.

Speaker 1:

I never noticed. I don't know why I was like there's a radio program.

Speaker 2:

It's really obvious.

Speaker 3:

It's real funny. Oh, it's horrible. They can hear him sniffling after that.

Speaker 1:

Let me see so police rocks in.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, the very beginning, yeah, yeah, this post punk class is bothered me forever.

Speaker 1:

My gears always grind over the shift in pitch, in tempo of Andy Somers guitar chords as the song starts and researching the cut. The best excuse is that flange seems to be loose. Recording tape seems to be wrapped around the pop tape, wrapping around the take up reel too slowly.

Speaker 2:

Now, that happened to me a few times with original masters and if it snaps too quick you could break the master, and it happened to me a few times.

Speaker 1:

Ah, let me see. The truth is much more mundane. In trying to sit down for the studio, take Sting accidentally introduced his ass to some piano keys.

Speaker 3:

And that's what you hear yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, you hear that. Yeah, Now, just what I needed the cars. What's that got? Yeah, in terms of return on misinvestment, the drum error in the cars debut single might be the most valuable mistake on the list. It happens in the third and final verse. Up to that point, drum and David Robson and played a standard rock beat with the snare kicking in on the second and fourth beats of each bar, like it's supposed to in virtually every mid tempo rocks on, but on the line because you're, because you're standing oh so near, I kind of lose my mind. Robson gets mixed up and hits a snare on the first and third beats. Yes, instead of going kick, snare, kick, snare, he goes snare, kick, snare, kick.

Speaker 1:

I wouldn't notice that I would say disrupts the meter in the listener's head, wow, and gives a whole new layer of meaning, of meaning to the song, up to the point where singer Riko Kasek's been very structured in the face of a relationship. That's that. It's isn't all that great, but nonetheless gives life some sad shadow order. Whatever the fuck that.

Speaker 3:

What the hell does that mean I?

Speaker 1:

don't know the right Wax. Poetic about a song.

Speaker 3:

Really, you know it's weird as a drummer. It doesn't sound like a mistake, it's sounding like he's just trying to shift, shift up the beat a little bit. You know, because he's playing straight ahead throughout. And if he had played, like I said, the snare on the two and the fourth throughout the whole song, it wouldn't wouldn't hurt it obviously, but the fact it was. When you stand in oh so near, it turns a beat around. But to me it gives that third verse a little more emphasis.

Speaker 1:

So it says the mistake works so well that a couple of bars later Robinson does it again.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, yeah, this time intentionally. But then how he goes back into the, I almost lose my mind. Yeah, he goes. That gets him back into the regular two and the four.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, Eminence front by the who. Yeah, there's supposed to be a little stutter there a little lyrical flubs and professionally released music, or everywhere and nowhere at once. Flip flop words pass us by in the blink of an air. When timed right, this timed, vocal cues can sound natural, even purposeful. But nothing should have allowed original LP version of this cut to reach mass duplication. The opening of the first chorus finds Pete Townsend on a rare vocal, on a rare lead vocal, quickly falling yeah, a syllable behind Roger Daltrey.

Speaker 2:

Right, it's an Eminence front. Yeah, I love that, though. I think that's great.

Speaker 1:

I thought it always sounds like it was meant to be Right.

Speaker 3:

So I like the guitar solo on camp. I Me Love where one version was recorded in France and one was recorded at Abbey Road and when they couldn't get the two to link up, so there's a delay. So it sounds like it's like it's, so it's two guitars really. Just they could not get it into sync.

Speaker 2:

Doing that back in 62, that's pretty. Or 63. That's pretty wild that they, you know, double track the guitar from two different countries. Wow.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, so we'll guitar solo.

Speaker 1:

It says. You can almost hear Townsend rolling his eyes. It says a lot. None of it good that this flawed anthem to be for coked out 1980s culture is still well I can. I can attest to that. It's still somehow this album saving grace.

Speaker 2:

Now a little background. That album was recorded at Andy John's home studio not a big studio, so maybe, being at his home studio, things were a little looser too you know, and it's Kenny Jones, finest drumming ever. Yeah.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I hate it.

Speaker 1:

The unforgettable fire.

Speaker 2:

the song I know what you're going to say about this.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, so you get Larry Mullin Jr counting off his sticks before realizing he wasn't supposed. Thought it might as a barely audible, oh shit.

Speaker 2:

I was a headphone listener at that time, unforgettable fire. I had my vinyl. I heard that.

Speaker 1:

I love it. And again that, yeah, that the drumsticks in that they're kind of off, really didn't kind of fit. Yeah, yeah, oh, love shack, did you know that there's the mistake? And love shack, yeah, it's 16 miles and you'll find it. Oh, let's see. Uh, wait, what's the hell? What the hell's wrong with this? Well, music is littered with songs where lyrical jumps, where vocalist jumps into their lyrics too soon or too late. Nirvana's Pauly and James Blunch You're beautiful. Immediately Leap, you're beautiful.

Speaker 2:

Right, I was Rod Stewart when I first heard it.

Speaker 1:

Well, in 2011 interview Kate Pearson let it slip that bandmate Cindy Wilson, mr Q, in the song's instrumental track, her legendary uh Cotta wall tin roof rusted wasn't supposed to be a solo acapella, or at least was a beat or two off. The band decided to leave it in. Uh, it's a point of emphasis. It helped turn the song from male party monster to an alt pops signature tracks.

Speaker 2:

Sure, that's a great moment.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, well, it definitely is the key moment of the song, Right? Yep? Uh, let's see creep radiohead. Uh, not many publicly available musical mistakes come to mind that were made with some form of malicious intent. But radiohead guitarist Johnny Greenwood presaged the band's reputation as a go big or go home kind of outfit. Greenwood wasn't a huge fan of the song's original quiet nature, so he went out of his way to fuck it up. He would yank tuneless dead notes out of his guitar. Tom York propelled his own bitterness, uh, to the chorus. But I'm a creep, I'm a widow. Yeah, that got, yeah.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, and as a practice on the songs progressed, the band decided to accept the noise as part of the song in the studio wonks. Uh, and the studio wonks they played it for smartly chose to preserve it for posterity. The rest, as they say, is a career.

Speaker 2:

Is that's their most unoriginal album too. After that they became a totally original band. Yeah.

Speaker 3:

They came close to um a near plagiarism with the year that I read by the Hollies. Yes, there's a little bit. It's almost like the other.

Speaker 1:

I agree, it's really close, yeah, oh, yeah, that I breathe, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3:

Um, so there's one, I should. There's two on Louis Louis, where I think it's at 54 seconds. Apparently the drummer made a mistake and yells fuck.

Speaker 2:

But it was Louis. Louis. It's hard to say that's hard to tell. No, it's all anything.

Speaker 3:

No, you can't tell. And there's a part with I mean, some of those drum fills are goofball. They're really good but they're really, they're really weird. But there's one where the singer didn't come in with it where you're supposed to, so the drummer did this crazy ass fill and that covered up for the drummer. A true garage band. Oh yeah, yeah, that song was port parent port over by the FBI. They're looking for upset.

Speaker 1:

Yeah.

Speaker 3:

They couldn't.

Speaker 1:

They couldn't find anything because they couldn't make any of that. No, no.

Speaker 2:

Hey hey look at the line I felt my bowling in there. Hey Lou, how many times, like, how many people have done this to you when you and your son walk into a room Louie, louie, how many people do that?

Speaker 3:

to you, of course, yeah, of course, I say Louie, louie, louie, louie, louie, louie, louie, louie, louie, louie, louie, louie, louie, louie, louie.

Speaker 1:

Here's the All right. We have any more relish If anyone wants to hear mistakes.

Speaker 2:

Just listen to any of the first three Van Halen albums on headphones. You hear tons of them. That's what makes them great. David Lee Roth cracking up during the songs I love it, I love it.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, yeah. So in day in the life of Sergeant Pepper, apparently at the very end and I listened to it for it tonight and couldn't hear it when they do that after they hit the big chord, the big silence as they ride the song out. Apparently Ringo squeaked his foot on a pedal and you can hear it. I couldn't hear it.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, I think that's something only the dog can hear, you know yeah, yeah.

Speaker 3:

And on the song Asia, on the drum solo apparently. Steve Gad apparently hits the sticks together at some point.

Speaker 2:

But Donald Fagan allowed that on the record if he even did it.

Speaker 3:

And I was a one take, that was a one take.

Speaker 1:

Wow, yeah, great, let's see. Okay, let's do the top 10 this week in 1970. This week, a little different than last week, number 10 midnight cowboy that made it into that was 12 the week before.

Speaker 3:

Yeah.

Speaker 2:

No, I don't.

Speaker 1:

As we're ahead of schedule tonight, we might have an early one tonight. Oh, I can argue with that.

Speaker 2:

This is like a bad dead gig.

Speaker 1:

If we do the two hour and a half show like, by the time I download it I get to bed at like 1145.

Speaker 2:

And you wake up at five. No, okay, I'm retired remember we're getting we're getting two inches of snow tomorrow, so I'm like really freaking out.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, we're supposed to get ice tonight, which is not good, that's worse, that's probably what the horse is, from nine tomorrow to like fucking five in the evening like the video to Scott.

Speaker 3:

That was cool.

Speaker 1:

Thanks, that's for rent. We submitted that. They said to get the grant money thousands for this. You just put it on the social media and tag them in it and then put it on their Instagram and so, yeah, we kind of cut. That horse was in a mood today, buddy. Yeah, he started chewing on my pants. He's never done that Right, he goes down, he starts pulling at my, my show. I'm like you should see, I'm gonna try to get the outtakes, because it took like five times to do it. One time he just kind of walked in front of me, just kind of pushed.

Speaker 3:

Right out of the way it just walked right in front of the camera.

Speaker 1:

Another time he started going for a tree like leaf and it's pretty funny. It's all time to the outtakes when he loses weight against you.

Speaker 3:

You can feel the power of the Dude. It's good.

Speaker 1:

You don't realize how strong a fucking when they just walk, when they take up space. It's called taking up space, which is when a horse like the three of us could be standing there and one of the horses that we, that we, that's part of our herd, miss America, she will just walk right in between you like she's gonna take up space and you, you, if you stand that you're getting bumped like yeah, oh. Yeah, do not realize how strong they really are. Yeah, until you get bumped by one. It's like Now.

Speaker 2:

Now I want to ask you something, because I've never interacted with a horse, but my good friend Walter told me, if you, I'm gonna go back to Mexico.

Speaker 3:

All right, let's go on with that.

Speaker 2:

Lou said he was gonna get me.

Speaker 3:

He's wearing a pair of really big rubber hip boots too.

Speaker 2:

So anyway, so like you can, if for you to lead a horse or doing it's, it's, trust the horse doesn't like you no horses don't judge.

Speaker 1:

They don't not like you. They have to trust you. They have trust.

Speaker 2:

It's all trust. They have to feel safe with you exactly.

Speaker 1:

So a horse can can feel your heart beat like four feet away, like they know if you work. That's why we ground a lot, a lot of time we bring groups in and we ground before we go in. It's kind of like a meditation Listen to the wind, listen to what's around, you feel your feet just kind of lower everything, lower your energy.

Speaker 2:

Because if you have, if you're nervous and you have like a fast heart.

Speaker 1:

They're gonna respond, yeah, differently. They're gonna respond differently. That's a protection right Like yeah, you know yeah 65 million years of genetics has given them that Design that they're. They're prey animals, so they have a different, you know, predators and prey right dogs are predators horses of prey.

Speaker 1:

One side of the brain, the other side of the brain, yeah, yeah, they think totally different. But a horse wants to feel safe with you when you're with them. They want to see you a leader, you know. And then you know like you get the horses that you go to pull it, like you just stand there, what's just there. Yeah, now they have a choice. People don't you know, the first people they don't want to pull like they think in the horse's neck is stretching and like the, the one of my, she's kind of like my mentors, she's. She's like, don't feel, the horse has a choice.

Speaker 1:

The horse has a, he can go with you or he can really just pull away from you.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, and my damn thing you can do about it.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, he's gonna rip that rope out of your hands if he wants. Yeah, but so what you do is to get the horse to go. Everybody turns around and looks at it like they're looking at the horn. The horses look, just look where you're going. That's what the horse really looks for. That. Oh straight ahead so say there's a fence post, I'm gonna go to that fence post and you just pull, take a step and the horse will eventually go with you.

Speaker 2:

He wants to know that you know where you're going. Yeah, they want to know that you're safe. It's trust. Yeah, yeah, it's interesting.

Speaker 1:

It's if you haven't get a chance. It's great stuff.

Speaker 2:

Oh, I'm dying to yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's great stuff, all right. Uh, this day of music this day in 2023, american singer-songwriter and guitarist David Crosby died the 81. Uh, that's the shit. That was only two years ago, that's last year. That was last year.

Speaker 3:

I wrote it was co who COVID related. The family didn't want to release details. But Well, he wasn't very healthy, he wasn't very.

Speaker 1:

No, but he was on. The made it past the kidney transplant.

Speaker 2:

He, um, he did that big interview with Howard like less than a year before he died. He was almost, like you know, very close to when he died and he laid a lot out in that interview and I listened to it and went, wow, he really wasn't asshole, but he made great music.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I mean he never really made peace with those other guys either.

Speaker 3:

He couldn't, I, he couldn't, I don't. I think he was just too much Of a dick. I mean, I just wanted to.

Speaker 1:

I saw a thing, and then he just wasn't. They Whatever but by the time they wanted to, he just couldn't yeah, I think you know what they all get to that point like Hauling oats. Like you get to the point like you know what dude I'm. Just I've known you for fucking 60 years. I don't need to do this with you. You know, like daryl hall says uh, he's, he's my business partner. No, notes is my business partner, he's not my partner.

Speaker 2:

I think the best way that was represented to me was when I asked uh, what the David, gilmore, roger water split and and someone said, would you ever get back together? And Gilmore said, well, if you have a wife and you divorce her, maybe you can be friends, but you ever gonna sleep in the same bed again.

Speaker 1:

Oh, you know what's a while Couple that kept getting married and they who the fuck was that they get married like three times? I forget who it was. Oh, no, it was uh we're the kaboors there's no. Elizabeth Taylor and Richard Harrison Richard.

Speaker 3:

Richard.

Speaker 1:

Burton.

Speaker 3:

Richard Burton like they got married like three times.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, on this day in 2016, eagles guitars again. Glenn Fry died at the age of 67 that was totally surprised. That was probably complications from rheumatoid Right as colitis in pneumonia. It was the Medicaid.

Speaker 3:

The medication gave him. Yes, the money's in his wife. There's, I think they settled out of court. Wrongful death suit.

Speaker 2:

Really yeah, he shouldn't have died, he should not, he should have died.

Speaker 3:

You know, he went in for abdominal surgery, which was the colitis thing, and they had to put him in a medical we medically induced coma. He just never came out of it.

Speaker 1:

Hey, this one's for you, lou. American session drummer, dallas Taylor. Yeah, he died of complications pneumonia in 2015 and kidney disease at age 66.

Speaker 3:

Yeah, he lived around here, I think for?

Speaker 1:

okay, let me see. On this day in 2011, the largest collection of Beatles memorabilia Went on display in a new museum in Buenos Aires, argentina. Some Spanish guy, 53 year old, accountant, turned his mammoth beetle collection into a museum with more than 8,500 objects, setting the world like fucking gotta love. Good for you, rudolph O Vazquez. Now say your name Argentinian, rudolph O Vazquez what did he have? There was some of the items include a box of condoms bearing the names of John Landon. Get out of here a brick from the virgin condoms the brick from the calving club Behind me.

Speaker 1:

On the green monster. Let me see, see where is it. So on the green monster, right? Oh, you see this little cluster right here.

Speaker 2:

Yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, there's a brick from Fenway Park. Ah and he still see the green on it.

Speaker 2:

I'll tell you story about it. He told me story, yeah.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, it's pretty and it's legit too. Let me see. Let me see a brick from the calving club, a chunk of the stage From the star club in Hamburg and certified copies of band members birth certificates. Wow, his favorite items were 64 boxes of chewing gum in the form of Beatles records.

Speaker 3:

Well, who made that? It was. Who made that stuff, I don't know.

Speaker 1:

But how do you fucking afford all that shit?

Speaker 2:

You just buy through the years you know low by low.

Speaker 3:

They've up your money, so I'm gonna go on look those bricks and those other things piece of the stage from the star club. They have to be seriously authenticated.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, I'm sure they were. Yeah, yeah, if they put them in a museum. So I'm a collector, as you know, like I collect, you know, superhero statues, vintage cameras, santa. Claus, vintage Video cameras. Right, all those vintage cameras. The the best part for a collector is looking for the next piece.

Speaker 1:

It's the hunt, it's the thrill of finding like I found a fucking life-size Hulk I mean fucking, really. And then you plan on, you want to get it, like there's a whole, like a whole thing that your brain goes through this Iron man. I wanted this fucking Iron man. I wanted an Iron man and Spider-Man for years, yeah, but this Iron man came up with the the glove, right, and I was like that I got to get that, I just have to, and so you, you pay it, you pay for it, yeah, yeah.

Speaker 1:

The fact that I got that Iron man for 40 and the Spider-Man for 4500 bucks. Like I can tell that I am here right now for a minimum 10.

Speaker 1:

Yeah, easy easy, but okay, let me see. On this day in 2007, islington Green School in North London was fighting plans to turn it into an academy. The school, which found Fame when some of its pupils sang on Pink Floyd's, hit another brick on the wall. Part 2 wrote a new version of the song to sing Outside Islington Town Hall as part of their protest. They hoped lyrics such as we don't need no business control and hay Bankers, leave our kids alone. I love that.

Speaker 3:

I love that, chris.

Speaker 1:
