I don't think they are still together and included Xian from the Loved Ones as well (Xian is now in 'Cake' ). I only saw them a couple of times as the Kinetics and before that as the Supernaturals.

My most bizarre and memorable Muzak experience, though, involved one of those "101 Strings" covers which used to be the backbone of all Muzak packages........it was 1989, I was in the local supermarket pushing my little cart like a good soldier, trying to tune out the syrupy Don Henley covers.....and suddenly here's a full orchestra playing a naggingly familiar riff, but in a very slow languid tempo.....what IS that????.......then suddenly here's this really insistent, ascending line, played by four oe five cellos, going up up up up UP UP and UP........HOLY SHIT, it's "We Ain't Got Nothin' Yet" by the Blues Magoos.........!!! I was comforted to notice that three other people (male and female) had ALSO stopped pushing their little carts and were staring at the ceiling speakers just like I was.

I have a few compilation tapes I made, mixing 90s garage punk with 60s soul and psyche that work out well (I always throw a few 70s-80s punk rock songs on there as well). I've lately been listening to a tape of the "Hell Comes to Your House Vol. One" compliation, with "Dangerhouse" and "Posh Hits Vol. One" on it as well.

(I have to SNAP the damn radio off immediately at the end of the tune, cuz I know if they followed it up with an equally good tune, I'd never make it out of the car)...

The bass player was naked, which I actually didn't like cause it seems like when you've got Wesley Willis as frontman you don't need added gimmickry. And he sold me 5 cds and a marker drawing of the Dan Ryan Expressway $40. I just picked cds with songs about bands I'd heard of. Otherwise how the hell could you decide? And he gives everyone that weird head-butt treatment and will caveman your girlfriend. Anyways this was 3 or 4 years ago so I like to keep hearing about him every once in awhile cause it means he's still alive and not stabbed to death on the CTA or permanantly hospitalized. >From: Euphorik6@aol.com >Reply-To: bomp@xnet2.com >To: bomp@xnet2.com >Subject: Re: wesley willis >Date: Sun, 7 Jan 2001 10:51:42 EST > >In a message dated 1/7/01 10:43:23 AM, yeeyeemgt@webtv.net writes: > ><< BTW, I have a fondness for Wesley Willis, especially his songs >"Outburst", "Rock and Roll Mconald's" and "The Chicken Cow". >> > > i always liked "i could kick batman's ass." > >rob > >===> To unsubscribe, send "unsubscribe bomp" to majordomo@xnet2.com <=== > _________________________________________________________________ ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 14 Jan 2001 22:31:44 -0500 From: "JOE ABRAMS" Subject: Re: Former Cramps Guitarist Bryan Gregory Dies at 46 Has anyone posted this obit- I'd like to see it. Definitely sad news. Hey, I'm 26 and still get carded for everything and hastled by curfew cops but I used to have this nutjob junkie roomate who at 26 looked just like Andy Warhol, who looked pretty much like Bryan Gregory on that old record cover.

Well my tape player doesn't work- we listen to either WRNB classic soul or 88.5 bluegrass and classic country on FM. On AM it's 1500, an altogether different bluegrass and classic country channel, or 980 which is an old folks type EZ station, only they have very little repitition and the other night one block of airplay was Carpenters, Sinatra, Brazil 66, Dionne Warwick and Martin Denny! How often do you expect to hear bird calls on the radio? Plus their morning show actually cracks me up, old men making old men type jokes back and forth and the utterly stupid Poetry Corner which I hate to miss. _________________________________________________________________ ------------------------------ Date: Sun, 14 Jan 2001 22:49:10 -0500 From: "JOE ABRAMS" Subject: Re: Wesley Willis Hell, most people in commercial radio don't even believe he exists- I actually heard an argument to that effect on the local "alternative" station's morning show at work- one dj tried to describe him to the other and she said he was just making it up!

All day at work I was thinking about this Goodwill branch I hadn't been to in almost a year and we went over there with only a 1/2 hr left in their business day afterwards. Got lots of great country records, all VG+++ to NM, like some oldie just finally gave em up. Old folks take care of their records! Got "The Wilburn Brothers" 1957 on Decca, "Patsy Cline Showcase" 1961 on Decca, "Floyd Tillman's Best" 1958 RCA/Victor, "Boulevard of Broken Dreams" by Ferlin Husky (Amazing cover!) 1957 Capitol, Red Foley's "Beyond the Sunset" 1956 Decca and "Let's All Sing" 1959, and a bluegrass comp on Smash that had "Pinball Machine"- one of my all time faves, much missed since I stepped on my 45 and broke it a couple of years ago. I also got a white label promo comp of the great "The Dayton Scene" lp with the Dawks, Harrisons, Gatlin Row, Jerry and the Others (probably the best tune on here) plus others, but with no cover! Records perfect. So does anyone have this- I assume so cause I heard about it here. I'd really appreciate it if somone could make me a copy of the front and back covers that I could put on the plain cardboard sleeve I put it in, or at least maybe email whatever liner notes their might have been. Well anyways my good thrift luck was spoiled when I got home to find that my pitbull killed my girlfriend's cat...Damn. _________________________________________________________________ ------------------------------ End of bomp-digest V2001 #35 **************************** ===================================================================== You've been reading bomp-digest, the digest version of the Bomp list.
