HERBERG DE KELDER

McCarthy - Keep An Open Mind or Else (1989)
Jangly indie pop with political lyrics, with Tim Gane on guitar (later of Stereolab).
Now well I know you should never
Think that you know everything
We have featured Marcin before (his appearance on Sunday Brunch was exceptional) but Diamond Dave dropped by to add this clip of his teaching (sic?) Will Smith how to play Flamenco!!! !
Happy birthday to Michelle Shocked, born as Karen Michelle Johnston in Dallas, Texas on this day in 1962.
Great quality!
Thought for a second this was Bob's 30th Anniversary in the business but it’s Farm Aid ’94 either will do the job - 8.14 minutes of Neil covering our Bobby! BLISS!
Now today’s from Gary Lucas (where else!?) is a true beauty at once from the Captain’s archetypical tendency towards totemic creation and his depictions of strange ‘spirit’ animals, dog, wolf, or mystical hare? . . .who knows but it’s a beauty
As it’s a drawing it is not often given the attention to detail that major paintings from his Gallery [Michael Werner Cologne] always do! So worth a close look; it is exquisite IMHO
IS IT SAFE?!
ANYMORE . . . . .
Well my cigarette died when I washed my face
Dropped some drops in an ashtray hit a wrong place
Open up my blinds to see spiders spinning nines
Its uh safe as milk it’s uh safe as milk
I never heard it put quite that way
The shape I’m in is uh worn a way
They called a day they called a day
Yesterday’s paper headlines approach rain gutter teasing rusty cat sneezing
Soppin wet hammer dusty and wheezing
Lusty alley whining trashcan blues
Children running after rainbows stocking poor
Gracious ladies nylon hanging onto line
Jumping onto leg looking mighty fineSorrows lollipop lands stick-broken on a dark carnival ground
Pop up toaster cracklin
Aluminum rhythm and sound
Ev’ry day pencil lazy and sharp
Icebox inside looking like a harp
Electric bulb been out for years
Freezer fumes feezin’ gas tears
Cheese in the corner with a mile long beard
Bacon blue bread dog eared (repeat twice)I may be hungry but I sure ain’t weird
(1968)
Lyrics confirmed by Gary Lucas on his Facebook page. He wrote “I watched Jan write them out for Don on huge cue cards on tour”.
