I bought a Harmonicats record recently with the Peter Gunn theme on it. | |

NSFW!!! Heh. | |

As the father of a young daughter, I found that last "number" extremely...hilarious. | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:08pm
Tony C:
One of the nice things about not being on the regular old radio is being able to play stuff like that! | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:09pm
ricardo montalban:
Hilarious! I was expecting one of those myriad 'letter to..' records. Certainly didn't expect that. | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:15pm
Tony C:
The next track up is by the band Rastus, whose debut LP was the first record I ever bought -- didn't know who they were, but it was 49 cents or something and I liked the cover. | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:18pm
Tony C:
It's a picture of a lobster or something wearing glasses. | |

Hiya, Tony my man. | |

Heya, Carmichael! | |

Doug S.:
Rastus member Bobby Jameson, who also performed/recorded under the name Chris Lucey, was the fellow Art Linkletter accused of giving his daughter the LSD. Denying it all, Jameson has written extensively online about the "incident." | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:29pm
ricardo montalban:
I read somewhere that a guy that was with Diane (not sure if it's Jameson) was also suspected of murdering Carol Wayne. | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:32pm
Tony C:
Wow -- didn't know about the (alleged) Jameson-Linkletter connection. Jameson wrote the song I just played.... | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:33pm
Tony C:
This Eskimo cut reminds me of Zappa's "Grand Wazoo" in parts. | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:34pm
Doug S.:
Jameson recorded a really fine album as Chris Lucey called "Songs of Protest and Anti-Protest." | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:37pm
Tony C:
And the reason he recorded it as "Chris Lucey" is really weird: Covers had already been printed up for a record by the actual Chris Lucey, sessions for which fell apart. Jameson had to write new songs with the titles printed on the jacket. | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:41pm
Carmichael:
I just sped through his blogs. Pretty amazing life and times. Didn't know he was tight with Danny Whitten; I really like the Rockets' I Gotta Hole in my Pocket. | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:45pm
iker:
i'm told that mr.Jameson appeared in the "Mondo Hollywood" movie, singing a couple of his songs... i'd love to see that one! | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:46pm
Tony C:
Huh -- I've got the Mondo Hollywood soundtrack LP, though I haven't listened to it in years. I'll have to pull it out. Maybe you'll hear it here next show! | |
|

Tony C:
By the by, Kathe Kruse was a member of the great Die Todliche Doris | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:49pm
iker:
cool! i seem to remember that Jameson was filmed singing "Vietnam". my fav song of his is "Girl from the East". pretty, pretty song! | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:49pm
Alf From Upstate:
Surely it can't be disproven that Bobby Jameson didn't give Kathy Kruse the LSD. | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:50pm
Tony C:
You're right, Alf -- he probably did! | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 12:55pm
Tony C:
In fact, Alf, I think I see Jameson's plasma oozing underneath the doorframe right now. | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 1:05pm
ricardo montalban:
This song reminds me of Godley and Creme's Art School Canteen | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 1:08pm
Tony C:
Don't think I know that one. Is it as depressing (lyrically)? | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 1:12pm
ricardo montalban:
Yes. full of angst and self-loathing, with great lyrics.. "Doe's getting into Zappa mean getting out of Zen?" | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 1:17pm
Tony C:
Here's a rare look into the sensitive side of Grand Funk | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 1:34pm
Tony C:
The Steve Halpern track on now is the one cut dropped from all reissues of this album (his first). The reason: it's much better than anything else he ever did. Shows his psychedelic roots. | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 1:39pm
Tony C:
Are you all taking a siesta? Or have you been kidnapped by Bobby Jameson? | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 1:40pm
Tony C:
Camberwell Now is post-This Heat | |

love Charles Heyward | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 1:44pm
Carmichael:
Actually, I HAVE been hijacked by Jameson's blog. Sorry, I'll pay more attention. I actually grew up on Grand Funk's Phoenix. I learned how to play acoustic guitar (badly) by listening to Mark Farner (play badly). | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 1:46pm
EX:
I like! | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 1:47pm
iker:
no siesta, here! actually it's almost dinner time! keep on rockin', Tony!!! | |
|

BSI:
pseudo code! wah......... badly timed meeting..... | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 1:49pm
Tony C:
Ah -- glad to see Jameson hasn't convinced all of you to jump out the window. | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 1:50pm
BSI:
Clearly I missed something there. I prefer Bushmill's anyway. | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 1:59pm
ricardo montalban:
Cool track... | |
|

Ike:
Gelatinous Citizen gets my vote for best band name so far today. | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 2:03pm
Carmichael:
I initially thought this was Wall of Voodoo | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 2:05pm
BSI:
whoa! Gelatinous Citizen! Ferd lives! | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 2:07pm
Tony C:
Am still doing a Larry Mondello Band blogpost on Beware of the Blog -- just got delayed. It'll go up next Thursday. Should have lots of unseen photos. | |

This carrot, as you call it, is capable of flying an aircraft millions of miles through space. | |

ricardo montalban:
This show has gone very new wave all of a sudden. (adjust leatherette boots, slit sunglasses, snaps fingers to beat) | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 2:29pm
Tony C:
Don't get too comfortable in those leatherette boots -- might be time to switch back to sandals pretty soon. | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 2:32pm
Conrad:
Weirdo new wave is why i come here! (goes off dancing like Dieter in "Sprockets") | |
|

Love Jeanette. | |

Tony C:
The lads from Stanford are covering Harry Nilsson, if you're wondering | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 2:40pm
Tony C:
Pilot, on now, is Blue Cheer-related. Bruce and Leigh Stevens from BC were in the band. This song, oddly, sound a bit like Family, though, methinks | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 2:42pm
Carmichael:
I believe this is the 3rd band I've heard of called Pilot. Very confusing .... | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 2:44pm
Tony C:
I should mention that the record's mostly pretty wretched, barring that one track | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 2:44pm
Mike East:
Been enjoying your show today, Tony C. Thanks for the jams. | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 2:45pm

Glad to hear it, Mike! | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 2:53pm
iker:
wonderful show as always, Tony! have a great day! | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 2:55pm
Tony C:
Thanks, Iker ... and everyone else for listening! Be sure to stick around for the George-Edwards tracks everybody.... | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 2:55pm
ricardo montalban:
Thanks for making radio soup for us, Tony! | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 2:57pm
Tony C:
Soup for nuts. You're welcome! | |
|
Tue. 9/13/11 2:59pm
Tony C:
See you all in two weeks. Thanks for leestening.... | |

WOW-- The Psychopaths!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I study bats in the U.K., and I saw the Psychopaths at the Coliseum in Leeds-- they blew the doors down. | |
