Show #188 – Vinyl Double Shots

Well, we missed posting about show #187.  Maybe it was because John Doe from the band X was in the studio with us and we were all high from that.  We didn’t play many songs that night because John regaled us with acoustic songs live in the studio and we chatted about a lot of topics in the two hours – including his new book “Under The Big Black Sun.”  Or maybe because we forgot.

But we didn’t forget this week’s show.  Not much to report.  Lots of music from vinyl.  Lots of fun in the studio.

Show #186 – We Have The Knack

We have the knack.  The knack for really mixing it up and throwing folks for a loop.  And I only mention that because we played The Knack’s My Sharona tonight because it reached the #1 position on this day in 1979 and it wasn’t until many weeks later that a band named Led Zeppelin knocked them off the #1 pedestal.  Yeah, The Knack made some darn good pop/rock tunes.

We also played some new music from some folks out of Bakersfield.  Lonely Avenue is a new band out of B-Town who recorded in our pal Brian Boozer’s Aum Studios.  Brian also played drums on the album.  It’s a good album.  A damn good album.  Give it a listen.

And we played a couple of tracks from John Doe/X because John will join us in the studio on our next show September 8.  Just saying you might want to clear your calendar.
