Well, here we are, episode 155. And on this episode we're going to be talking about the year 1966. Me and the wrecking two, mark Smith and Luke Colicchio, from the Music Relish Show in 1966. I was two going on three, mark was negative, I don't know, seven wasn't even thought of and Lou was twelve. So he's gonna remember all this stuff, all of it. So we'll just sit back and listen to him. He's just going to take over the show because he was 12 in 1966. And with all that said, sit back, relax, enjoy a great transition year in music and great movies. Enjoy.
Lou:The KOFB Studio presents Milk Crates and Turntables. A music discussion podcast hosted by Scott McClain Now let's talk music.
Mark:Enjoy the show.
Scott:Welcome to the podcast. You know the name, I'm not going to say it Streaming live right now, over everything, every platform on the planet. We're live right now. We're streaming. We're killing right now. We're streaming, we're killing it, getting millions of views. It's crazy. What I just said is kind of crazy. That's not really true, but we're getting tens, tens of views. No, we're getting way more than that the tens of thousands, tens of thousands of downloads. Anyway, oh yeah, thank you, amanda, for that wonderful introduction. Welcome back, my friends, to the show that never ends. I'm so glad you could attend. Come inside, come inside.
Scott:I got it all backwards tonight. I don't care, I don't care. It's episode 155. This is 154 more episodes than I ever thought we were going to do. So I'm way ahead of the game.
Scott:And while we're at it, let me put on my uh, I just like this background music. It's filler for when Mark and Lou are just there, when they really don't have anything to say, they just kind of. So at least I have this background music. This is really why I got it. But you know, just saying, just saying, and you know Lou decided I'm just going to come in at seven, like. So you know, being the temperamental artist that he is, I usually introduce him first, but I'm not that's his penalty for the night.
Scott:He does not get introduced first. See, I usually introduce him first, but I'm not that's his penalty for the night. He does not get introduced first. See, I have a thing I always say Mark Smith and Luke Colicchio in the introduction, and then I always introduce Lou first. But tonight, lou, I don't know, he's on an ego trip, so get ready, this is going to be an interesting show. Tell you that Popped on right at 7. He'll have some excuse. I'm sure he's in his luxury kitchen with all his teas, as Jack pointed out. Ooh, that's some nice tea, lou. You have some nice tea in the background. See, I'm laying it heavy on Lou just because he showed up late. So, with that said, let's bring on the one and only.
Mark:Mark Smith Little Marky, smith Little Marky.
Speaker 4:Smith.
Mark:Mark Smith.
Speaker 5:What are you doing?
Lou:I'm getting down to the music because you don't like that.
Scott:You know we don't talk enough, so you know you're in the penalty box, right off the bat, see, right into the penalty box. See, I gave the guy a bone, I threw him giant like a fucking Dino Flintstone bone, and the guy just goes and shits on it. So just for that, disregard that introduction, disregard that that never happened, and then I'll just bring on Nooooooo, nooooooo.
Mark:Nooooooo.
Speaker 5:Nooooooo, nooooooo, nooooooo, colosseum, colosseum.

Scott:Hey, listen, your buddy threw you under the bus. He's the one that said it's 7 o'clock. We need to go live.
Speaker 4:He didn't even text me, he threw you under the bus.
Scott:I think he's jealous that I introduce you first every episode.
Speaker 4:I think that's what's going on him first.
Scott:I, yeah, but I don't think he thinks it's good enough. It's never good enough for him, evidently. No, he's more temperamental than I am. He really is. Yeah, mark smith is very temperamental and I'm sure his sister, allison, will let us know when she comes on he does my friend humility shit.
Speaker 4:What's that? He does this humility thing you know, yeah, yeah, he now on music relish, relish. It says Perry Dedevich Lou. He says Just Mark. That's what he calls him, just Mark.

Lou:This won't be the last time.
Scott:With the musical guests, the Kinks and the who, wow, wow, wow. Shindig went all big yeah In 66.
Speaker 4:Something blew up, so the Kinks were allowed to play in America at that point. Or Shindig, was that an English show? No American, that was American yeah.
Scott:It was 66, right.
Speaker 4:In the late 60s they couldn't come to America for a while. Visa issues they were hooligans.
Speaker 5:Yeah.
Scott:Dave Phillips was 11 in 66.
Speaker 4:I was a year older than Dave. What's up, old boy? That beard looks, I'll tell you what it has aged me.
Scott:It has aged you a little bit. Let me see. Two days earlier, the birthday of Elvis Presley was celebrated in the final Thursday episode of the series. Didn't it play every night? Wasn't Shindig on every night? I don't know.
Speaker 4:I don't think I've ever Monday through Friday. I don't remember seeing it in its heyday.
Scott:Yeah, I think it was on Monday through Friday.
Speaker 4:Yeah, I was in military school at that point.
Scott:Oh, I thought you were going to say seminary school. I went to Catholic school uh, you know, on January 14th 1966 young English singer David Jones changes his last name to Bowie Bowie. Yeah, that happened in 66.
Lou:Well, that was early on better because of the monkey god because yeah think about it.
Scott:David Jones thing that he was doing you ever see the original video for if you can find it on YouTube, people, I recommend you look at it. The original video for Space Oddity.
Mark:Oh, it's got him.
Scott:It's pictures of him like filming Nah he's not pictures, he's doing it and it is ugly. It is bad. Oh, it's bad. I'm certainly glad. I think the world is glad that they redid that song.
Lou:It was bad so he recorded it before.
Speaker 4:Yes, he might have. When did he write it? He might have written it before 66, you don't know. I don't know.
Scott:But I thought he really sang it. Well, he sang it as david jones. I don't think he did it as David Bowie.
Lou:I thought he wrote it because he was influenced by 2001 to Space Oddity. It's not Okay.
Speaker 4:Was it the same lyrics? Ground Control, the Major Tom. You got to see it. You got to see the video. I wish I could. I've seen it all I know I can do it.
Scott:I can pull up video on this relish thing. I've seen some um david jones uh film clips of him.

Lou:Was it really? Yeah, so they did it as many times as the Sex Pistols screwed up a record deal.
Scott:Right, right, but five times on the Ed Sullivan Show. Wow, that's more than the Beatles, I guess. Right, yeah, they just don't get any respect. It's just almost getting too late too, yeah, and Eric Burden's still around too. Yeah, it's just getting too late, to the point where they probably doesn't even matter.
Speaker 4:Is it because House of the Rising Sun is just something, that's the only thing they'll really be known for?
Scott:I don't know. This is today's greatest hits.
Speaker 4:Oh, I don't even know this, you know them yeah, Of course, but most people know House of the Rising Sun. But Well, Go-Go's, I mean a few.

Scott:Yeah, october 1966, with their album the Supremes A Go-Go, the Supremes become the first all-female group to reach number one on the US Billboard 200. November 9th 1966, john Lennon meets Yoko Ono when he attends a preview of her art exhibition. It's a fucking you have to climb up a fucking like seven eight-foot ladder. There's a fucking, you have to climb up a fucking like seven eight foot ladder.
Scott:There's a film of it. To fucking look at this little, tiny fucking thing on the ceiling and the fucking greatest hack in the history of fucking entertainment, all you gotta say though is, the rest is history.
Lou:You know what it?
Speaker 4:said at the top Huh, when you went to the top of the ladder, do you know what you did? You know what it said at the top huh, when you went to the top of the letter, do you know what it said? I think it said breathe yeah, I thought it was.
Lou:You are here, so no no, maybe that.
Scott:Maybe that was it mark no, actually what it said is, if you lived here now, you'd be home.
Lou:That's what it said on the that made him fall in love with her. If you lived here now you'd be home.
Scott:That made him fall in love with her. If you lived here now, you'd be home. Are you serious?
Speaker 5:No, no, but that's a big you see these new fucking In Boston.
Scott:you'd see this apartment complex and it would say this big sign that says if you lived here now, you'd be home.

Scott:Oh man.
Lou:It was a great slogan.
Scott:You got a bridge to sell me Scott.
Scott:Let's see. November 15th 1966. Japanese band the Tigers make their first television appearance, changing their name from the Funnies for the occasion. Good idea, Good idea, really good idea. November 24th 1966. The Beatles begin the recording session for their I'm Not Gonna Let the Fucking Beach Boys Out To Us album, sgt Pepper's. November 30th, the Yacht Birds officially announce that Jeff Becker's left the band. No two-man fucking lead guitars, no more. Uh-uh Done, not those two Done, leaving Page as the sole guitarist in the group, within which Page would plant the seeds of Led Zeppelin.
Lou:And poor Beck forms the Jeff Beck group. They record the same song that Led Zeppelin recorded on their debut. Zeppelin Page stole Beck's thunder. He did.
Scott:I do love the Oddbirds version of Train Kappa Rollin' though. I've talked about this a number of times that video clip from a movie Blow Up, yeah.
Lou:And that has Paige and Beck in it.
Scott:He throws the arm into the audience and he gets it and he walks outside after the big chase, just throws it on the ground.
Speaker 4:Did Blow Up come out in 66 also. I think so Might have because they were both on stage.
Scott:They were both in the band when that was playing.
Speaker 4:How long were they in the band together playing dual lead guitar? A mere month, a matter of months.
Lou:A matter of months, yeah, well, look, it's on the timeline. November 30th, jeff Beck left the band and then, if you roll back, when did he? When did Jimmy Page? Yeah, I think it was months, a couple months, yeah.
Scott:Here we go. This is interesting. December 6th 1966, a Smile album. The album Smile vocal overdub session by the Beach Boys for the song Cabin Essence becomes the scene of a climactic argument between member Mike Love and third party lyricist Van Dyke Parks, causing him to gradually distance away from the project.
Lou:So what did that asshole Love say?
Speaker 4:He was a pain in the ass. I was reading where Al Jardim was talking to Van Dyke Parks. He thought with Heroes and Villains. Do you know the song Scott?
Speaker 4:Probably it was a commercial flop for me, that's. That's their river, deep, mountain high, yeah, um, but it was supposed to be this big phil spectra thing. But, um, then they parks thought he ruined the beach boys and I'll join. He goes. No, no, no, no, no, no. He goes. You, you help this transcend thing. So yeah, my glove was transcend things.

Speaker 4:They did it in 66 too on the Fifth Dimension album, David Crosby singing it. It's not that good.
Scott:Hey.
Speaker 4:Joe, hey Joe.
Scott:It's not a song that you can really pick up and sing. You have to really have some deep chops to do that one.
Speaker 4:Oddly enough, crosby's a great harmony singer. He was the lead vocalist. He didn't sing a lot of solos, I think, with CSNY, a lot of harmony.
Scott:December 17th 1966. I was about to turn three years old the next day. Excuse me, David Oppenheim films Brian Wilson at his home performing his composition surfs up the footage would later be used for cbs's inside pop, the rock revolution to be aired the next april.

Scott:The Clefs of Lavender Hill. I wonder why they didn't. Well, it was the 66. It was a weird time. They got big Clefs. Cream Cream was born in 66. Formed in 66. Let me see, what do? We got Nothing there. Edward Bear Edward Bear makes two. They fucking two appearances in the show tonight. That's weird. What the fuck are the odds of that? That's weird. Let's do, alright. You know this is just making me say Edward Bear, it was the Edward Bear review. Later, edward Bear was formed in 66 by singer and percussionist Larry Evoy and bassist Craig Hemming. Craig Hemming was only with the band for a short time. The effective founders. The band signed with Capitol Records in 69. The band recorded several albums. The songs were mainly Let me see.

Lou:It's great for me.
Speaker 5:It's great for you.
Scott:Edward Bam makes two fucking appearances on the show. Look at Todd. What did he say? That gives me bonus points, he wins.
Lou:Todd wins he won. I can't argue with that one. He got the penalty shot. He wins.
Scott:I gotta give him the win. Todd gets the win, for that I have to give him fucking the win.
Lou:I'm putting Todd Winner.
Scott:I have to give him the win. Win, I'm taking it off. I'm putting Todd winner. I have to give him the win.
Speaker 5:I hate, but that's too funny. Winner and the fact that he jumped in immediately. Yeah, really he must have been.
Scott:His thumbs must have been on fire, fucking texting that in Winner on penalty shots.
Lou:Winner on penalty shots. Winner on penalty shots. Taking Mark out, crossing it out.
Speaker 5:He pulled out the win halfway through the show.
Speaker 4:That's a come from behind victory man.
Scott:Oh my god, if I never went to see who formed in 66, this never would have happened.
Lou:We got movies to talk about. No, you know what. It's time for you to make the call?
Scott:Oh cool, because I can't beat. I can't top that. No matter what band was formed in 66, that can't be. So we're gonna quit with that one. That's too ironic, by the way. Okay, here we go.
Scott:Let's you make the call yeah the theme for this one is the word run. Okay, it wasn't fucking easy finding all these songs with the word run in them, but it's some tough choices here. Alright, buddy, there you go. Mark, you start off. Mark Smith, you make the call. This is your Desert Island playlist. The long run or take the money and run. Steve Miller Easy. The long run, lou, or Take the Money and Run with Steve Miller.
Lou:Easy, the Long Run.
Speaker 4:Lou Take the Money and Run.
Scott:I'm with by far. Take the Money and the Long Run. I fucking hate that song. I used to worry a lot I used to.
Speaker 5:It's the Long Run.
Speaker 4:That intro. It's the Long Run. Come on Listen dude.
Scott:Listen, mark, pay attention. This here's a story about Billy Joe and Bobby Sue. That's right, two young lovers with nothing better to do. Thank you, but it's.
Lou:Steve Miller, who's so goddamn boring. I love him, but he's boring. I can't.
Scott:I hate him and I love him, so it was Rick Ocasek. Rick Ocasek was fucking boring. Yeah, you're right.
Lou:Good point.
Speaker 4:Steve Miller rhymed taxes and faxes.
Scott:Okay, next one, next one.
Lou:Me and Lou win that round.
Scott:Alright, mark, you make the call Desert Island player list, with run being the optimum word in these titles, running on Empty or Bryan Adams' Run to you.
Lou:I like Run to you. That's a great 80s song, but Running on Empty is classic With David Lindley on. Sly Guitar oh yeah.
Mark:Running on Empty, lou Running on Empty is classic, with David Lindley on sly guitar. Oh yeah, running on empty, lou running on empty.
Speaker 4:No, no, you like run to you, run to you Wow.
Scott:This is a tough one. I got to go running on empty on this one. I'm not a big Brian Adams song. Cuts Like a Knife is probably it's in my top 10, top 20 favorite 80 songs. I love Cuts Like a Knife is probably it's in my top 20 favorite 80 songs. I love Cuts Like a Knife. Never turn it off when it comes on. I could give two shits about Summer of 69 and all that stuff, but Cuts Like a Knife is just such a great song but I have to go over.
Lou:Run To you was great when you were driving late at night, coming home from a concert or something, You're on that dark road and Run to.
Speaker 4:You came on. I'm not a big fan of that record Running to you.
Lou:You voted against Russ Conkle.
Speaker 4:I did. You know why? Because of his floppy, floppy snare drum sound. Just a personal thing, Okay.
Scott:Mark, you make the call. Let me see take it on the run you were fucking around, heard it from a friend who heard it from another friend, so that was actually fucking. Uh, that was what's that before? What's that? Heard it from a friend who heard it from a friend. Uh, okay, take it on the run, or nowhere to run to by hulu, nowhere to run to.
Lou:Run to baby Nowhere to hide, I'm going with that I can't remember what I'm saying.
Scott:The.
Speaker 4:Vandellas, the Vandellas.
Scott:Is that who it was?
Speaker 4:Maybe it was. It's a female group, it is. It's a 60s girl group.
Lou:I'm calling them Vandellas.
Scott:Great scene in the Warriors, by the way, when they play that song.
Lou:Was that the fight when they went?
Scott:into the garage. No, I think it was the Lizzies. When they went into the all-girl gang, yeah, and the chick pulled out a gun, that was the name of that gang the Lizzies.
Speaker 4:Yeah, Didn't have the Ducky Boys too. Was that in that one? That Well, no.
Scott:No, the Ducky Boys.
Speaker 4:That was the Warriors.
Scott:Yeah, the Warriors was. I don't think there was the. Maybe it was the Ducky Boys, I'm not sure the boys, I'm not sure the turnbull acs. They were the big ones. They were the one in that big fucking school bus. The riffs were the one that ran it. They were the ones that cyrus um ran and put the word out. Then you had the. Uh, I I'm not gonna get into all the names, but I I know them. I fucking studied that album cover and you see, the album cover, art and a lot of the gangs aren't in the movie Like you can't imagine, except for the furies, the baseball furies, yeah, they were creepy.
Scott:They were on the cover, the.
Speaker 5:Warriors were on the cover. Cyrus, he shot.
Scott:Cyrus, the orphans. Don't forget the orphans. Nobody fucks with the orphans. Warriors, dude with the lazy eye, right, I could go on. Evidently I've seen that movie a lot, it's a great movie. It is a great movie. It's a great.
Lou:What year did it come out? 81 or 80? Or 70?, 79. It?
Scott:was on 79, yeah.
Lou:Oh, I was all of 10 years old and it was on ABC. They had Saturday night movies and I remember seeing it Heavily edited.
Scott:I was 15, 16, 15. It was a journey In a bottle cracked over my head in a fucking fight. We were all drunk.
Lou:You put on a movie where people crack bottles over their heads.
Scott:I got six stitches in my head, but he went to the hospital so oh boy minus minus a big chunk of flesh bitten out of his lower back just pulling the seal slightly more off on your life.
Scott:I literally hear these little tidbits here and there he was bent over like he tried to go for my knees and I dropped down. He had on one of those short leather jackets and I start realizing I am fucking gushing blood coming down my face and I got furious. And he had one of those 1970s short leather jackets, waist high, and I had him like my arms were around his chest and his knees, he was on his knees and I just saw the lower part part of his back, the meaty part, and I fucking bit right into that and I literally, I literally bit a chunk out of his back. Oh, spit it, did you get skin and flesh?
Lou:and, dude, I bit a hole in his back, dude you're like a bear you got to taste the human blood I bit a chunk out of his back and spit it out.
Scott:He was in the hospital and then, as they were pulling me off him, he was screaming. I kneed him in the face and I shoot him like a horse, kicked him square oh, game over, but I'm gushing blood. I look like fucking Ric Flair after after a cage match. I had blood coming down my face. My buddies were like, yeah, we gotta take you to the hospital isn't that a great feeling the warm blood coming down your face.
Scott:I just remember I just remember while we were fighting on it was at a driving. It was up on the screen. That scene with the lizzie's really was playing yeah, no way to run to yeah, yeah, I remember it vividly. It was really weird how you remember these things. Yeah, yeah, so pulling, yeah, pulling it back, and just a little to cover back, just a little more. All right, back to the show. All right, lou, what do you think?
Lou:See.
Mark:Todd's talking Big Ed.
Scott:Todd says Martha and the Vandellas. So I was right, the Vandellas. Nowhere to run, say take it on the run or nowhere to run to.
Speaker 4:Take it on the run sucks.
Lou:I like the acoustic really strumming, I'll go with.
Speaker 4:Martha and the Vandellas.
Scott:I'm going to have to go with. Take it on the run out of sentimental purposes. That was my first love. We met and that was one of the songs.
Lou:So you sang to her. I heard it from a friend who.
Scott:I heard it from a friend who Not a good way to start off a relationship. Well, it got me somewhere when I sang, so that's true. First base I don't think it had anything to do with my singing, though. Anyway. Next one this is a tough one. I should have saved this one for last, but this might be the toughest one of this whole. Midway through Mark, you make the call Banned on the run or born to run.
Lou:Oh, you are a douche.
Scott:I saw this I was like this is a fucking hard one, man. This is Banned on the run or born to run.
Lou:I'm going to have to go with born to run Slightly edge there's no wrong answers.
Scott:No, you know again, you're not getting any arguments.
Speaker 4:Lou Banned on the run. I have to again again go with Lou.
Scott:I love that fucking song. Now Born to Run again you can't go wrong with either answer. But Band on the Run just has so many levels to it.
Scott:It's an epic it was that leftover shit, like I always say that leftover Beatles shit that he was still writing and he had all these fucking songs. And that's when they're at their best, and I've said this more than a number of times. You get like Morris he was at his best when he left the Smiths and all those fucking songs that they just couldn't record and then they just get to put them out do you think Band on the Run had it's origins during the Beatles years?
Scott:I just I think some of the writing, I think these dudes have fucking notebooks full of songs.
Speaker 5:I don't think they just write one song you know, you come to the studio and you get all these songs and it's like then it gets decided.
Scott:Other than the police, with sting, would just show up with the songs and I call this song.
Speaker 4:This is what we're singing. I think it was one of paul's first solo albums that really got not universal acclaim but it got good reviews. You know his, his solo albums. They had hits on them but they were. They were never critical. I don't think they were critically loved. Right band on the run was a record. That, because it's cohesiveness, it's a great record overall they were written in beatle style well yeah, that's right, they were written in that kind of side, uncle Albert, it's got all these different pieces, the rhythms, songs like that.
Speaker 4:I don't think they can record today Because they have different tempos I heard the other day.
Scott:yesterday I was driving home and I heard Wayne, paul McCartney and Wings and it's a version of Junior's Farm, but it was on. I forget the name of the album.
Lou:He has a new album called One Hand Clapping. Is it on that?
Scott:Yeah, and it's you know. So it's the typical and that's exactly what it was. Yeah, it is the typical. You've heard the song so much and you know every single fucking beat in the song. You know the essence of the song. You know exactly when every note hits right, yeah, and you start listening to it. You're like this is off, like something's off. And then you know you hear him take me down to junior's farm, right, and you hear in the background like loudly, junior's farm, like this lady repeating it after him Right, whereas in the original version it's subtle.
Scott:The background singing is subtle and this lady you can hear her voice distinctly and I'm like, ah, I can't listen to this. Was it really?
Speaker 4:She couldn't sing. Were these old tapes Junior's farmiors formal, that's from before band on their own yeah, that's what dave phillips, came to 45, said it was on ram, yeah okay, it's probably, it's probably linda yeah, well, they should have.
Scott:She's no yoko ono, I mean come on, there's a good reason that they took that out, because it didn't have like good continuity with the rest of the song.
Speaker 4:It was right, you know so you know, on the take that was released, there's like a call and response like take me down to june. Yeah, there's a call and responsing, but I don't recall hearing uh, perry denovich, the ai, shows up.
Scott:He said, uncle albert, abro halsey is paul doing beach boys, with all different parts connected together, which is you could say that I think there's six degrees of separation going on here. I think he, abro Halsey is Paul doing Beach Boys, with all different parts connected together, which is you could say that I think there's six degrees of separation going on here. I think he was doing it in the style of Sgt Pepper, which was in the style of Pet Sounds like good vibrations.
Lou:It just became an ever-going influence on Paul.
Scott:Yeah, I don't think he's wrong in saying that. I think because Sgt Pepper pepper is well known as a response to you know, pet sounds.
Speaker 4:yeah right, yeah so yeah, yeah, paul pulled the beach boys. I think it was his first album. It's a so-called backseat in my car yeah, I don't know but it's. It's the most beach sports thing I think he's ever did. It's really yeah, yeah, I just know I'm not.
Scott:I'm not arguing with an AI. Perry's right.
Speaker 4:He has glitches, give him your credit card number.
Lou:What's the worst that could happen?
Scott:5473, 3047, 5039, 8642. Expiration date 436 Perry. Get me a new microphone now, 8-6-4-2.
Lou:Expiration date 4-36 Perry get me a new microphone now.
Scott:And the CVV that no one knows what those letters stand for is. 5-1-9.
Lou:What does CVV stand for?
Speaker 4:Fuck. If I know it's left, it's the curriculum vitae.
Scott:Venum, hold the skull when you say that circular vaginal vagina, that's what it stands for. It does actually alright, here we go, let's see. So did we get an answer on that? Lou ban on the run and I said ban on the run. Alright, here we go. Mark, I thought of you when I did this one. Now just give a straight answer Running with the Devil or Run to the Hills.
Lou:I'm going with Run to the Hills.
Speaker 5:That was my youth Run to the.
Lou:Hills. I was a teenager. It's a great song. I knew you would pick Run to the hills. I was a teenager. It's a great song. I knew you picked that song yeah. I'm kind of sick of running with the devil Lou.
Speaker 4:I fucking hate running with the devil. I used to play that with my brothers in the band and I told them. I said I'm not going to ever play this song again. I will quit this band.
Scott:Lou, you have to live your life like there's no tomorrow. I did, I did.
Speaker 4:I can't play that stupid for three minutes. I think I just I, I like, I like a little bit healing that song.
Scott:I think it's just from the whole I have to go and run it the Devil, because Running With. The Devil annoys me. I don't like his voice that screechy.
Lou:Bruce Air Raid Siren Dickinson.
Scott:I got much respect for the guy. I'm not dogging it, it's just I'm not that voice, that type of music never appealed to me.
Lou:That was right up my alley when I was a teenager. A lot of teenagers.
Scott:All right, mark, you make the call, Dave.
Speaker 5:Phillips, King of the 45.
Scott:Running with the Devil sucks Capital letters Sucks.
Speaker 4:It's like the worst song they ever wrote, I think.
Scott:Well, if it wasn't for that song, I don't know they might not have gotten to where they got to, because that was the breakout song.
Speaker 4:Maybe they shouldn't have been successful because of that fucking song.
Lou:You know what First album starts with Running With the Devil, kind of a slow burn. And then the second album starts with You're no Good. They both start with slower songs.
Scott:Hey, was it one of you that sent the video? Did I get it sent to me or was it tagged in it? This dude, this kid, I don't know, he's probably in his 20s and he plays everything, everything.
Speaker 4:He did Eruption with three fingers.
Mark:He said everything is three fingers.
Scott:Everything he does is set on three fingers.
Lou:And he does.
Scott:Eruption with just three fingers. No, he has five, but he just plays with three fingers. And he has this method and it's fucking phenomenal. I'm sure that guitar is tuned to some weird tuning oh I'm sure it is like, if you're that good, you're setting something to your he's playing like a bass player, would it?
Speaker 4:but using alternating fingers. But he even said he goes. He's alternating first, second, like you know, his index finger, middle finger and the ring finger. Yeah, alternating mathematically, yeah it's fucking amazing.
Scott:Amazing, it really was, it sounded great, yeah, I mean listen, however you get to it, you know. Yeah, all right, let's see. Mark, you make the call Run Through the Jungle or Pink Floyd's Run Like Hell, oh, One of them.
Speaker 5:I mean sorry.
Lou:Run Like Hell. It's a Climax of the Wall mean. Sorry, run Like Hell, it's a Climax of the Wall movie. Yeah, run Like Hell.
Speaker 4:Run to the jungle.
Scott:This is a tough one for me. This is almost like depends on what mood I'm in. Yeah, good point, you know I'd like, but if it came I don't turn either one of them off if it comes on. So, dave Phillips, king of the 45, ccr, all the way.
Lou:Depends what day it is right I got to go run like hell.
Scott:I'm just going to go with tonight. I'm going to go run like hell. I'm just gonna go with tonight.
Lou:I'm gonna go run like hell by the way you know, john Fogerty is such an asshole that he ripped that song off the old man down the road he deserves to be sued alright, mock, you make the call.
Scott:Fox on the run Fox is on the run.
Speaker 5:Fox is on the run. Fox on the run.
Scott:Fox is sweet, right, that was sweet yeah yeah or I'll keep away. You're gonna run around soon, I said hey, hey, which one is it? Fox on the Run or Run Around Soon, Because I'm just going to say Run Around Soon is a fucking kind of a cool song it is, but Fox on the Run is a good song. You get no wrong answers. Like I said, Fox on the Run Can't go wrong with Sweet.
Speaker 4:Lou Tonight. Tonight is Dion DeMucci. It's a great song, it's his birthday. He had a birthdayMucci Because I think it's a great song and it's his birthday. He had a birthday the other day, I think. Oh, okay. And also, it's a Tala rock.
Scott:I got to say that's right, that's right, it is You're right, you're absolutely right.
Speaker 4:We will always go with Dion Tala. That's today. That's today I like Sweet.
Scott:I Dion, okay Dion, I'd have to say Dave Phillips, king of the 45, says flip a coin, right, I'm gonna say Fox on the Run, and I did preface this thing by running around. This was a fucking kind of cool song. It is and it is. It's a long lasting it. The fuck it has legs, right, yeah, but I got to go with Fox and the Red because it just brings me back to that 70s.
Speaker 4:Oh yeah.
Scott:You know fucking junior high when it was called junior high, not middle school, middle school exactly.
Speaker 4:It's like Middle Earth or something. Yeah, it was junior high.
Scott:It was fucking junior high.
Lou:I never went through that. I went through K-8. I was in a Lutheran school, so I miss that experience, here it goes again.
Scott:Here we go. You missed some good stuff, buddy In eighth grade I was with kindergartners.
Lou:Yeah, it's great.
Speaker 5:I don't want to know your name, I'm going to go with that.
Speaker 4:All right, alright, here we go. Were they before Queen? Or simultaneous?
Lou:because if you, look at their harmony structures.
Scott:Their vocals are very similar when did Fox on the Run come out, mark?
Speaker 4:I think it was like 73.
Lou:Fox on the Run yeah, it is sweet 1975.
Mark:Yeah, it was 75, sweet right 1975, 70 yeah, 75.
Scott:Yeah, so queen had already been around yeah what song I really love is like oxygen yep love is like oxygen too high.
Speaker 5:Not a nothing you're gonna die.
Mark:You're gonna die, do, do, do do do do, do.
Lou:That little part in the middle. It's a great architecture. It had that power. They called it power pop but it really was the precursor to the 80s metal with the harmonies, because all these metal 80s hair bands love sweet. It was that melodic sound.
Speaker 4:How about Little Willie's almost bubblegum?
Scott:Yeah, it is Little Willie. Willie won't, but it's a jitsy friggin' song, man. Yeah, it got on the charts. All right, here we go, mark. Yeah, so we got an 80s and a 90s song here 80s verse and 90s song Root, root, root, root, root root.
Speaker 5:Be running up that road, be running up that hill, be running up that building.
Lou:Right, yeah, that was good. That was really good. You should record that. I know someone that presses 45. Why don't you record it?
Speaker 5:We'll get 45 pressed or run away train never coming back, Run away on a one-way track.
Lou:That's a good song, but Running Up that Hill is great.
Speaker 4:I'm going with Running Up that Hill.
Speaker 5:I'm not crazy about either one really. Hey Lou, Kate Bush was really Italian.
Lou:That sounds like Geddy Lee. Whether she was Italian or not, she's Italian, so go with her. Kate Bush, she's fucking British. Yeah, I know, you can't get more British than Kate Bush.
Speaker 4:I never liked Soul Asylum. I don't care, ben's a bummer to me.
Lou:I agree with you.
Speaker 5:I don't know.
Speaker 4:I mean they're not bad. I just I don't know. They were like the Goo Goo.
Lou:Dolls, they kind of they hung around.
Speaker 4:They hung around in 94. They're still around.
Speaker 5:They have an audience.
Speaker 4:And they look like old lesbians now, the two of them.
Scott:Who the.
Speaker 4:Goo Goo Dolls. Yes, they do.
Lou:What's the singer's name? Donny Resnick. I think he's had a few facelifts. Oh, absolutely he has.
Scott:That dude, yeah, that dude.
Lou:He has the eyeliner and everything.
Speaker 4:He's like the bad guy in Guardians of the Galaxy 3, where he's got his skin.
Scott:Now you know they had a whole different. They were like edgy and they were kind of like extreme. They had this edgy hard side to them, right yeah. And when they came out with that, hit um name iris. I won't tell, yeah, no I won't tell my name and, just like you know, everyone started liking them and they were like oh shit.
Lou:So they were like hey uh, johnny resnick said I'm just gonna write these songs, yeah, yeah and their fans freaked.
Scott:They freaked on them, man. Oh, look who shows up from the hospital. My brother Colin McLean Guys sorry for being late, for milk trucks and side tables.
Lou:It's Milk Duds and Kumquats. I'm on the IR.
Scott:I'm on the IR Engine Reserve. It's a catch dog, episode A catch dog episode means he's going to walk his dog and listen, okay.
Lou:Is he okay?
Scott:Is he okay? Yeah he's okay.
Speaker 5:You think I give a fuck. We do, it's just my brother.
Scott:It's your brother, yeah, your brother. For God's sake, this is payback for years of abuse. You kicked his leg away.
Lou:I did, I did do that. You got him back.
Mark:And he fucking deserved it too.
Lou:He fucking deserved it. That is the funniest story. You can't charge at me, Don't?
Scott:charge at me without me coming back at you. You want to go in the hole? You want to try to stand? Okay, you're getting trucked. You're getting trucked. Oh boy, here we go again. Yeah, okay, here we go Two more. This is an interesting one, mark, you make the call.
Speaker 5:It keeps you running yeah.
Speaker 4:It keeps you running. Lou, just do it, that's my job.
Speaker 5:It keeps you running, that's my job. Yeah, it keeps you running. It keeps you running, that's my job. Hey Lou, it keeps you running. It keeps you running, that's my job.
Lou:Hey Lou, it sounds better with the beard.
Speaker 5:You're actually getting smokier with your voice, you got the Michael McDonald beard going too, Get a white wig, get the fucking gray beard yeah, get the white wig.
Scott:White wig, okay, it keeps you running. Or one of the unsung great songs off of Joshua Tree Running to Stand Still by U2.
Lou:I'm going with U2. Unabashedly, that's a great fucking song. Personal opinion I love Keeps you Running. I'm going with U2.
Speaker 4:I go with U2. Really, lou, thank you. I am not a big fan of Michael McDonald. I go with you too, Et tu Brute, Even though I do the world's best.
Lou:Michael McDonald impersonation it's kind of an annoying song.
Speaker 4:It's not normal, it's like what do the guitar players do on Minute by Minute? Was there any guitars at all? Were they allowed to play?
Lou:No, Michael McDonald said no guitars.
Speaker 5:No guitars. Get the fuck out Only keyboard.
Lou:And some drums. We lost Scott. Something's going on here.
Scott:I'm listening to Run it to Stand.
Speaker 4:Still, he's eerily quiet.
Speaker 5:Oh, okay, you can't hear it. Can you hear it? No, we can't.
Speaker 4:Really no.
Lou:There you go. Don't go more than 15 seconds with Bono.
Scott:You'll get screwed. I like the beginning.
Lou:Didn't they use it for the closing credits of Rattle and Hum?
Scott:Joshua Tree. They were never better than Joshua Tree.
Lou:Wasn't that the closing credits on Rattle and Hum Running a standstill.
Scott:Probably yes.
Lou:Oh, this is great. It's haunting Brian Eno and Daniel Lenoir.
Scott:Yep, yep.
Lou:If we talk over it, it won't get caught.
Scott:It's for educational purposes yeah, educational purpose. That's why I went to play in this song. I don't even look at the YouTube channel, real, I might have got nicked up last week.
Speaker 5:I'm going to go with Running to Stand.
Scott:Still. So that album also has significance to me in more than a couple of ways. I went into the Air Force in 87, and I saw them right before.
Speaker 5:I went.
Scott:And I was in basic training. I went in in May, so basic training was six weeks, so this was probably like June and it was hot in fucking San Antonio Fucking talk about humidity. And halfway through basic training they give you like you get a free day. Back then we did. Today the pussies get fucking cell phone breaks and anyway. So I went over to the little bx right across from and they say you can go into town, go into san antonio, go to the river, walk, spend the day, do whatever you want. And I'm like, well, I'm gonna be here for at least another fucking six to eight weeks because I'm going to law enforcement academy here and then, you know, if canine works, I'm gonna be there for another six to eight weeks. There's gaps in me, so I'm like I'm just gonna stay on base. So I went over to the base exchange and I got, I bought a walkman and I bought you two joshua tree and I bought a pair of fucking uh short, like swimming shorts and I went over to the base pool and I just fucking all day. I just listened to that thing right all day.
Scott:And so then I get back to the, to the, to the dorm. This is basic training. This isn't like, and they're like anything you have with you needs to go in the closet. Everything went in the closet, right. When you first get there, all your luggage in the closet, right and I'm like, nah, nah, fuck this. So when we were in basic training, you could only use you had. Uh, you go into the bathroom and it's a communal bathroom and there's literally like 15 stalls, right, but we can only use two, really, yeah, because these things always have to be immaculate, right, and they don't want to clean 15 fucking you know nobody there. So I go all the way to the last stall and I put that thing behind like, like, fucking michael coleone hiding the gun, the godfather right I put it behind the
Scott:toilet and so I would go in there, like at night when the TI is not around, and I would just listen to it. And one Saturday the TI they had weekends off and we would kind of, after a while we'd handle ourselves after, like week four, you know, week three, week four, and I'm in there and I'm sitting, I'm not doing anything but listening to music and all of a sudden somebody comes banging. I go, hey, hey, sergeant lloyd's looking for you and it's the ti came in on his day off and they called me dog boy. Right, he's like where's dog boy? I'm like, oh fuck, like you know, fucking sticking to being here and hit the floor. And I come out of the bathroom like he was. What would you do a dog boy? I go, oh, nothing, nothing, just doing nothing listening to this irish rock band to something.
Scott:But at this week it was like week five and he's like ah, fuck it, I don't even care. At this point, right, and I was like oh, thank god. So that album, that song. I love the B-side songs Red Hill, mining Town, one Tree Hill, running Up that Hill, those are my favorite songs on that album.
Lou:My two is much better to me.
Scott:They're all great albums. So I listened to Still Haven't Found them Looking For it the other day and I said, you know what? I'm just going to listen to it again. Yeah, and I did, and I realized once again, other than Twilight Zone by Golden Earring, which I had a rediscovery of the other. I know, I'm just saying I'm going to write some lyrics.
Lou:Help, I've fallen into the Twilight Zone.
Scott:I know. This is a madhouse, but I just like the whole beat and the rhythm and it's kind of a deep it's got heavy and it's, it's like you know it's. There's nothing light about it, really, and uh, I just and then that came on still haven't thought I'm looking for which I've disregarded for at least a decade. I'm like you know what.
Lou:It's a fucking great song yeah, yeah, it is, it's a great fucking.
Scott:We've heard it so much, but it's a fucking, still a great song was that the first single from that?
Speaker 4:no, uh, with or without you, which I did not like I didn't like it.
Lou:When it came out, I was like oh yeah, I loved it.
Lou:Yeah, I grew to like it but now, scott, it's funny, you had a good experience with that album. The next album, actoon. I was in the hospital for over two months after me and my wife were married for six months. We have a horrible car accident. So I'm in the hospital and the people that worked at CPI, they banded together, they got me a Sony Discman and they brought it to the hospital and gave it to me, and then Tom Spallone gave me Actoon Baby.
Speaker 5:There you go.
Lou:Well, I'm listening to it. When I heard that and you had those headphones with the puffy, you know.
Scott:Yeah, yeah.
Lou:But I started playing that and I just put it on repeat. I couldn't stop listening to it. But the nurse coming in, she could hear it. You know she could hear it. She's like what, what are you listening to? I hear it all the time. I had one disc. Then I had the rest of my cds brought in eventually.
Scott:I had like 40 cds on my bed. You know, the serious ways is their worst fucking song. Which one, dave phillips says when the serious ways grew, it's their worst fucking song I love that me, and jack both agree it's a garbage song.
Mark:I love it, I love yeah, um I listened to one of my again.
Scott:one of my favorite albums ever and I've said this a number of times is the Water Boys. This is the sea. Oh yeah, it's got a pole and the moon on it. I listened to that for 16 straight hours flying back from the Philippines. I had the rock band. It would just click over and it would play backwards. You didn't have to take it out and put it in. I listened to that fucking thing for 16 straight hours. I love that fucking album.
Lou:I've recently discovered Waterboys. I didn't know much about them. I heard songs, but recently I'm listening to their whole albums. They're scary good Mike.
Scott:Scott knew exactly what he was doing that big sound, big wall of sound. And then they do Fisherman's Feast. The next album after this is the Sea, and it's all stripped down. Yeah, it's back to like traditional irish kind of sound. Yeah, but this is the sea is a fucking amazing album. Now they came out with the you know they the remastered and they added a bunch of songs to it which I don't particularly like that they did that. Everybody's doing that now. Yeah, I I liked the original lineup of songs that they had. Yeah, so it's hard to find the original version anywhere online Spotify. I tried and all they have is the remastered with all the extra songs on it.
Lou:Oh, so he doesn't want you to hear the original. That's the problem. Yeah, try to track down a used copy of the CD.
Scott:You'll find it. I'm sure I will. Yeah, alright, we're going to finish this up, gentlemen. So I think it keeps you running, mark. And then Lou and I said running to stand still.
Lou:I said that too. No, I said running to stand still Okay and Lou.
Speaker 4:Running to stand still.
Scott:Okay, and the last one. This is an interesting matchup Mark. You make the call Running with the pack Bad company or running down a dream.
Speaker 5:I'm running with the pack.
Lou:I'm going to go with bad company. But that's a tough one. I'll go with bad company, lou.
Speaker 4:Tom Petty, that's a tough call.
Lou:Was Stan Lynch on drums on that, or was that after he was on?
Speaker 4:No, that's a good one. That's from Full Moon Fever, I think right.
Scott:In the video, for that it's really good.
Lou:Oh it's a great video. It's a great video.
Speaker 5:I really good. Oh, it's a great video. It's a great video.
Scott:Yeah, yeah, I yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, um I just I gotta go running with the pack. Just, bad company is bad company, paul rogers is paul rogers. I mean, they were just that fucking good. I like both songs.
Scott:There's no wrong answer like I like the structure of the bad company song and the verses are standard blues rock and then the chorus is like a half different time beat yeah, running with the pen yep, yep, so that was a good, that was a good round, right there, that was very good yeah, yeah, that was probably the best, I think, that I put together in a long time that was a good one. Oh, they're all good, come on all right, where are we at all right? We're at an 44. We're not going to get to movies.
Speaker 4:Next week, and albums too. We didn't really get the albums either. We didn't get the albums We'll pick that up.
