WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:02.640
Hey, my fellow heavy breathers. This is Dash

00:00:02.640 --> 00:00:08.179
Riptide. Your music news. Hey, check it out.

00:00:08.220 --> 00:00:10.640
Iron Maiden finally gets nominated for the Rock

00:00:10.640 --> 00:00:12.679
and Roll Hall of Fame. Like it means anything

00:00:12.679 --> 00:00:15.539
at this point. Blaze Bailey has been added to

00:00:15.539 --> 00:00:17.820
the names to be inducted with Maiden if they

00:00:17.820 --> 00:00:21.519
should get in. And they should. It's just 30

00:00:21.519 --> 00:00:24.539
years fucking late. That's all. Good luck and

00:00:24.539 --> 00:00:28.949
up the irons, kids. This is Dash Riptide. And

00:00:28.949 --> 00:00:32.250
that was your music news. If it's too loud, you

00:00:32.250 --> 00:00:42.149
probably have ear damage, just like me. There,

00:00:42.270 --> 00:00:52.689
that worked. We are the music creeps. We are

00:00:52.689 --> 00:00:58.729
the music creeps. There we go. All right. We

00:00:58.729 --> 00:01:01.329
are the Music Creeps. We are sponsored by All

00:01:01.329 --> 00:01:04.810
Star Pest Solutions and some mystery product

00:01:04.810 --> 00:01:07.549
coming up in a couple of days or so. Yeah. Yeah,

00:01:07.590 --> 00:01:10.629
so anyhow, we're very happy for our sponsors.

00:01:10.849 --> 00:01:13.730
Yeah. But let's not forget our other people that

00:01:13.730 --> 00:01:15.989
we support over there in the city market. We

00:01:15.989 --> 00:01:17.950
may not be there, but we're there with our hearts

00:01:17.950 --> 00:01:19.769
right now. Yeah, we had to be here today, so.

00:01:19.989 --> 00:01:23.629
Yes, so City Market Coffee, we salute you. Best

00:01:23.629 --> 00:01:26.230
coffee in the world. Corollos Italian Market,

00:01:26.349 --> 00:01:28.730
I dare you to find better food than there. And

00:01:28.730 --> 00:01:31.549
especially their cannolis. What you do is you

00:01:31.549 --> 00:01:34.150
get a coffee from City Market Coffee. I like

00:01:34.150 --> 00:01:37.189
a Cabano. You like a Americano. And it's not

00:01:37.189 --> 00:01:41.030
very sweet. So you go over to Corollos and you

00:01:41.030 --> 00:01:43.269
get some of their lemon cake or you get some

00:01:43.269 --> 00:01:45.269
of their cannolis and you drink that and eat

00:01:45.269 --> 00:01:47.650
that together. And you have the perfect little

00:01:47.650 --> 00:01:50.010
snack. And then while you're there, go to Hibachi

00:01:50.010 --> 00:01:52.950
Mart and grab you a nice shawarma or a gyro.

00:01:53.269 --> 00:01:57.549
Yeah. Yeah, so, all right, and we thank all of

00:01:57.549 --> 00:02:00.569
those people and all of the businesses there.

00:02:00.829 --> 00:02:03.290
And we also thank the places here, like River

00:02:03.290 --> 00:02:06.250
House. Yep, here on the Rock Island Bridge. Yes,

00:02:06.329 --> 00:02:08.520
very good place. The first podcast ever. Yes.

00:02:08.580 --> 00:02:10.759
To happen from the Rock Island Bridge? We did

00:02:10.759 --> 00:02:13.840
the photo op and everything. Yeah. And the news

00:02:13.840 --> 00:02:16.180
cameras and all that. So we thank all of you

00:02:16.180 --> 00:02:18.439
guys, all the news cameras and the photo ops.

00:02:18.599 --> 00:02:21.060
Yeah. The nude one, I was a little hesitant.

00:02:21.099 --> 00:02:23.539
But, you know, it wasn't that cold once we started

00:02:23.539 --> 00:02:26.039
walking around. Yeah. Yeah, the nude photo op

00:02:26.039 --> 00:02:27.560
actually turned out pretty well. Yeah, there

00:02:27.560 --> 00:02:29.319
was some shrinkage. And, of course, the nipples

00:02:29.319 --> 00:02:30.960
were poking out. Well, that was the first thing

00:02:30.960 --> 00:02:32.919
I said. I said, you guys realize it's a cold

00:02:32.919 --> 00:02:35.639
day. And they said, we know. So we got the nude

00:02:35.639 --> 00:02:38.520
part done. But it was nice meeting Cody Holyoak

00:02:38.520 --> 00:02:41.139
and Carly Ritter and everyone else that came

00:02:41.139 --> 00:02:44.360
down. It was pretty cool. Yeah, but they would

00:02:44.360 --> 00:02:47.939
not get naked with us. It kind of hurt our feelings

00:02:47.939 --> 00:02:51.120
a little bit. Yeah, but I guess they didn't know

00:02:51.120 --> 00:02:55.580
in advance, so they probably had to shave some

00:02:55.580 --> 00:02:58.360
areas or something. I get it. I would have shaved

00:02:58.360 --> 00:03:01.859
a little better, but I had it sprung on me. And

00:03:01.859 --> 00:03:04.699
then I had patches in my fur because I had to

00:03:04.699 --> 00:03:07.840
have my echocardiogram. That's true. It's like

00:03:07.840 --> 00:03:11.120
a little bitty waxing. Yes. They tear off those

00:03:11.120 --> 00:03:13.639
electrodes and you wish you were dead. Yes. All

00:03:13.639 --> 00:03:15.919
right. I've learned a hack for that is have them

00:03:15.919 --> 00:03:17.699
leave them on, go home, and take them off in

00:03:17.699 --> 00:03:20.439
the shower. They just slide right off. Really?

00:03:20.520 --> 00:03:23.259
They do. It's water -soluble. Wish I wouldn't

00:03:23.259 --> 00:03:24.919
know that this morning. Yeah, I didn't know that

00:03:24.919 --> 00:03:27.879
until a week ago. Shit. I've ripped some hair

00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:32.080
out myself. Yeah, not a good feeling. No. All

00:03:32.080 --> 00:03:33.580
right, you got something you want to go into?

00:03:33.780 --> 00:03:36.060
Yeah, something that recently happened. Did you

00:03:36.060 --> 00:03:38.620
hear about Kid Rock had a big deal at his house

00:03:38.620 --> 00:03:41.199
recently? Yes, about that. And a couple of Apache

00:03:41.199 --> 00:03:45.360
helicopters, at least one, maybe two, flew by

00:03:45.360 --> 00:03:47.319
and hovered there for a minute, and he waved

00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:49.340
and saluted, and it got all on video, et cetera.

00:03:49.580 --> 00:03:54.199
Yeah. Pretty much right away, the Air Force suspended

00:03:54.199 --> 00:03:57.419
the entire crew for doing that. And then pretty

00:03:57.419 --> 00:04:00.110
much right away after that... Pete Hegsworth

00:04:00.110 --> 00:04:02.169
said, oh, heck no, you're not suspending these

00:04:02.169 --> 00:04:04.909
people. And then with the comment, carry on Patriots,

00:04:04.909 --> 00:04:07.949
he lifted the suspension. I love it. I love it.

00:04:08.490 --> 00:04:10.530
Hegsworth, he doesn't take any bullshit either.

00:04:10.669 --> 00:04:12.550
He's just like, I don't care what you guys think.

00:04:12.810 --> 00:04:15.590
It's going like this. And I hear that, you know,

00:04:15.590 --> 00:04:18.170
that giant reflecting pool in front of the Washington

00:04:18.170 --> 00:04:20.529
Monument? I hear they were able to fill that

00:04:20.529 --> 00:04:22.610
with all the liberal tears that happened. Oh,

00:04:22.610 --> 00:04:29.420
good. They finally found a place for them. That's

00:04:29.420 --> 00:04:32.560
good, that's good. A little salty, but you can

00:04:32.560 --> 00:04:36.759
still see the monument in front of it. Now, you

00:04:36.759 --> 00:04:38.959
know if it was Jane Fonda that the helicopters

00:04:38.959 --> 00:04:41.779
went by and she waved at him, that everyone would

00:04:41.779 --> 00:04:44.379
be loving it. Oh, what a wonderful thing. But

00:04:44.379 --> 00:04:48.839
because it was Kid Rock, he's not approved by

00:04:48.839 --> 00:04:50.980
the liberal left, so they had to get bent about

00:04:50.980 --> 00:04:54.980
it. That's bad, that's bad. I'm going to go color

00:04:54.980 --> 00:04:57.139
my hair three more colors. I'll show you guys.

00:04:58.540 --> 00:05:01.680
I always love the ones, the wildebeests that

00:05:01.680 --> 00:05:04.899
go, I'm not having sex with any man again. Thank

00:05:04.899 --> 00:05:07.480
you. And I was like, I guess we're just going

00:05:07.480 --> 00:05:11.759
to have to accept that. Okay. Gosh. She says

00:05:11.759 --> 00:05:13.620
no. What are you going to do? I guess I'll just

00:05:13.620 --> 00:05:16.339
move on. All right. Well, this doesn't have really

00:05:16.339 --> 00:05:18.459
into music, but it's something that's similar

00:05:18.459 --> 00:05:20.759
to where we are today on the Rock Island Bridge.

00:05:20.819 --> 00:05:23.199
There's the Casey Current and their entertainment

00:05:23.199 --> 00:05:27.220
district they're working on. Yeah. Until recently,

00:05:27.379 --> 00:05:29.879
there was a business that was going to be opening

00:05:29.879 --> 00:05:32.560
up there. It was going to be a bar nightclub

00:05:32.560 --> 00:05:36.759
kind of thing with, I think they described it

00:05:36.759 --> 00:05:39.500
as cool jazz. You know, a place to hang out,

00:05:39.540 --> 00:05:42.839
relax when the sun goes down, etc. And it was

00:05:42.839 --> 00:05:46.300
named Sundown. Now, it's a black -owned business.

00:05:47.230 --> 00:05:49.449
And the man who came up with this name and idea

00:05:49.449 --> 00:05:53.629
is black. And his intention was exactly that,

00:05:53.689 --> 00:05:56.910
to call it Sundown, to remind people of the Sundown

00:05:56.910 --> 00:05:59.949
towns that used to say, don't let the sun set

00:05:59.949 --> 00:06:03.149
on you in this town unless you're white. Yes.

00:06:03.290 --> 00:06:05.810
And those were called Sundown towns. He was doing

00:06:05.810 --> 00:06:09.170
it on purpose to try to reclaim the vibe, reclaim

00:06:09.170 --> 00:06:12.170
the name. I thought it was a brilliant idea.

00:06:12.449 --> 00:06:14.910
Yep. It really was. Except the liberal white

00:06:14.910 --> 00:06:17.730
left. started screaming and yelling and chased

00:06:17.730 --> 00:06:20.709
him out. They didn't bother to find out what

00:06:20.709 --> 00:06:23.410
was going on or who owned it. They just started

00:06:23.410 --> 00:06:25.629
screaming and yelling racism, and now the guy

00:06:25.629 --> 00:06:28.769
has had to pull out. Yeah, which is real racism

00:06:28.769 --> 00:06:31.269
right there. They made him pull out of his business

00:06:31.269 --> 00:06:33.189
because of that, and that would have been a lucrative

00:06:33.189 --> 00:06:35.750
business too. Isn't it odd? A black man with

00:06:35.750 --> 00:06:38.829
his own business names it what he wants, and

00:06:38.829 --> 00:06:41.370
white liberals tell him he's too racist to call

00:06:41.370 --> 00:06:44.660
it that. I don't get it. It's fucking absurd.

00:06:44.899 --> 00:06:48.019
Yeah. There's people, if you really want purpose,

00:06:48.079 --> 00:06:51.019
go fucking volunteer. No kidding. Jeez. But you

00:06:51.019 --> 00:06:54.639
know, that is what... I don't know what liberalism

00:06:54.639 --> 00:06:56.839
was supposed to be, but all I see it being now

00:06:56.839 --> 00:06:59.139
is yelling and screaming about things they don't

00:06:59.139 --> 00:07:01.199
like. It started out with a good idea, but like

00:07:01.199 --> 00:07:03.139
anything, you get the wrong people in there and

00:07:03.139 --> 00:07:05.420
they start perverting it and screwing with it

00:07:05.420 --> 00:07:07.800
and making it something that it's not. And then

00:07:07.800 --> 00:07:10.259
you have the idiots like George Soros allegedly

00:07:10.259 --> 00:07:13.540
fucking giving money for... He's trying to tear

00:07:13.540 --> 00:07:15.860
the country apart, that old piece of shit. I

00:07:15.860 --> 00:07:18.000
swear I would have a hard time not beating him

00:07:18.000 --> 00:07:21.100
to death with a fucking toothbrush. He's a piece

00:07:21.100 --> 00:07:23.959
of shit. And I have no problem saying it all,

00:07:23.959 --> 00:07:26.459
in my opinion. I saw a picture of him recently.

00:07:26.480 --> 00:07:28.660
He looks like he probably died two or three years

00:07:28.660 --> 00:07:30.819
ago, but is just too dumb and stubborn to fall

00:07:30.819 --> 00:07:31.920
over. Too bad he can't do us a fucking favor.

00:07:32.060 --> 00:07:36.139
And his whole fucking nasty family. Let's hope

00:07:36.139 --> 00:07:37.660
they don't carry on his work when he's done.

00:07:38.199 --> 00:07:43.480
Yeah, that whole family can burn in hell. And

00:07:43.480 --> 00:07:45.579
all this is my opinion. If you don't like it,

00:07:45.600 --> 00:07:48.139
fucking switch podcasts. I don't care. We get

00:07:48.139 --> 00:07:49.480
to say what we want. You really do. You're a

00:07:49.480 --> 00:07:51.279
big fucking chunk of my asshole if you don't

00:07:51.279 --> 00:07:55.019
like it. Are we here to please ourselves or please

00:07:55.019 --> 00:07:57.600
the listeners? Us. Us. Yeah. And we've never

00:07:57.600 --> 00:08:01.540
made any, we've never hidden that fact. No. We're

00:08:01.540 --> 00:08:03.180
doing what we want. And if you like it, great.

00:08:03.319 --> 00:08:05.759
If you don't like it, bye. Yeah. If you don't

00:08:05.759 --> 00:08:07.720
like it, you know, there's the off button. But

00:08:07.720 --> 00:08:10.610
make sure we get our minute in. Yes. Yeah. After

00:08:10.610 --> 00:08:17.110
a minute, turn us off. All right. Okay, go ahead.

00:08:17.170 --> 00:08:19.310
Was that the end of that story? Yeah, and then

00:08:19.310 --> 00:08:22.029
that kind of got me thinking about post -World

00:08:22.029 --> 00:08:26.189
War II, there was the development of all the

00:08:26.189 --> 00:08:28.930
suburbs, the housing divisions. Yeah, that was

00:08:28.930 --> 00:08:31.029
the big great white movement. The white flight.

00:08:31.110 --> 00:08:36.029
Yes. Now, nobody intelligent, let me say it that

00:08:36.029 --> 00:08:39.620
way, is disputing that it happened. That's a

00:08:39.620 --> 00:08:41.440
good way of putting it. Nobody intelligent that's

00:08:41.440 --> 00:08:45.779
informed will dispute that. And I remember when

00:08:45.779 --> 00:08:49.960
I was growing up, it was representative. Well,

00:08:50.080 --> 00:08:52.360
people just felt like moving out of the cities,

00:08:52.379 --> 00:08:55.000
and it just kind of happened organically. And

00:08:55.000 --> 00:08:57.720
I thought, recently you think about that, you

00:08:57.720 --> 00:09:02.159
think, okay, all white suburbs, all white school

00:09:02.159 --> 00:09:05.740
districts, all white congressional districts.

00:09:06.960 --> 00:09:09.960
That wasn't an accident. No. Somebody was behind

00:09:09.960 --> 00:09:14.000
this planning it out and making sure, because

00:09:14.000 --> 00:09:16.980
right up to that point, the ethnic mixing in

00:09:16.980 --> 00:09:19.820
downtowns was no big deal. No, I know. And it

00:09:19.820 --> 00:09:22.340
was going really well. It was. And the Great

00:09:22.340 --> 00:09:24.620
White Movement moved everything back so far.

00:09:24.899 --> 00:09:27.710
Yep. And it's like right after World War II,

00:09:27.750 --> 00:09:30.570
they decided, let's divide America again on racial

00:09:30.570 --> 00:09:33.330
lines. Now's the proper time. Because we'd just

00:09:33.330 --> 00:09:35.570
gotten out of the Second World War, where racism

00:09:35.570 --> 00:09:38.590
against Germans and Japanese was not only encouraged,

00:09:38.789 --> 00:09:40.649
it was taught to you by the government. Yes.

00:09:41.450 --> 00:09:44.169
So everybody was in a racist mood. Everybody

00:09:44.169 --> 00:09:47.429
was in a white supremacist mood. It was the perfect

00:09:47.429 --> 00:09:49.750
time to say, hey, all you white people, move

00:09:49.750 --> 00:09:52.330
out to the suburbs. You can determine your own

00:09:52.330 --> 00:09:56.690
fate and you can also be controlled. True. One

00:09:56.690 --> 00:09:59.289
of the few things I agree with George Takayan

00:09:59.289 --> 00:10:03.809
was this, about his family having their land

00:10:03.809 --> 00:10:06.210
taken away from him during World War II and having

00:10:06.210 --> 00:10:08.690
them in internment camps. He deserves that land

00:10:08.690 --> 00:10:11.970
back. His family does. Yes, he had nothing to

00:10:11.970 --> 00:10:14.129
do with that side over there coming after us

00:10:14.129 --> 00:10:16.389
and us fighting them. I agree with him on that,

00:10:16.450 --> 00:10:20.250
but not much else. And it's kind of interesting,

00:10:20.509 --> 00:10:25.789
the way I've heard it spun, even though FDR was

00:10:25.789 --> 00:10:28.269
very liberal, and he was way too liberal for

00:10:28.269 --> 00:10:31.100
a lot of people. Well, Social Security was not

00:10:31.100 --> 00:10:33.279
a bad thing. People bitch about that. It's like

00:10:33.279 --> 00:10:35.580
all these people would be fucking starving in

00:10:35.580 --> 00:10:37.580
the street if they didn't develop that. It's

00:10:37.580 --> 00:10:39.639
basically forcing people to have their own retirement

00:10:39.639 --> 00:10:41.679
accounts. That's all it is. And I think that

00:10:41.679 --> 00:10:44.039
needs to happen because nobody is responsible

00:10:44.039 --> 00:10:46.340
enough to save their money for a rainy day. Not

00:10:46.340 --> 00:10:50.580
anymore. I remember as a kid being told that

00:10:50.580 --> 00:10:53.700
liberal Democrat president... Franklin Delano

00:10:53.700 --> 00:10:57.340
Roosevelt was very reluctant to sign the order

00:10:57.340 --> 00:11:00.220
of the internment camps and had a heavy heart

00:11:00.220 --> 00:11:03.279
about it, really regretted it, which is all bullshit.

00:11:03.379 --> 00:11:05.799
He was all for it. He was all for it. He was

00:11:05.799 --> 00:11:09.120
all for it. Yep. Yeah. And people tried to talk

00:11:09.120 --> 00:11:12.389
him out of it, and he said, nope. Yeah. So we

00:11:12.389 --> 00:11:15.490
got the spin on that. Isn't it funny when Democrats

00:11:15.490 --> 00:11:18.289
do bad shit, it gets kind of spun in a different

00:11:18.289 --> 00:11:20.610
way? Look at Bill Clinton. Nobody wants to hear

00:11:20.610 --> 00:11:22.509
about Epstein -Iloh whenever it involves him.

00:11:22.649 --> 00:11:24.649
But if you say anything about the president,

00:11:24.769 --> 00:11:26.330
all of a sudden it's like, oh, look, look, look,

00:11:26.389 --> 00:11:28.690
there's a picture of him talking to him. See?

00:11:28.830 --> 00:11:31.090
But then you have all these pictures of their

00:11:31.090 --> 00:11:35.289
hero Bill Clinton in a fucking hot tub with underage

00:11:35.289 --> 00:11:38.259
girls. It's like, oh, that wasn't anything. No,

00:11:38.340 --> 00:11:40.799
no, it was something. As a matter of fact, you

00:11:40.799 --> 00:11:43.360
know what, I don't even want to go into it because

00:11:43.360 --> 00:11:46.700
it's so hypocritical and so ridiculous. Anyone

00:11:46.700 --> 00:11:52.539
that believes that, I question everything that

00:11:52.539 --> 00:11:54.399
they believe in and what they think about. When

00:11:54.399 --> 00:11:57.000
you show up at a protest and they have thousands

00:11:57.000 --> 00:12:00.059
of pre -printed, pre -painted signs sitting there

00:12:00.059 --> 00:12:03.679
waiting for you, that's an organized, sponsored

00:12:03.679 --> 00:12:06.299
event. And to think that it just organically

00:12:06.299 --> 00:12:08.710
happens. You're an idiot. I hope they go after

00:12:08.710 --> 00:12:10.710
Soros for funding it because they've pretty much

00:12:10.710 --> 00:12:13.710
proven it. And, you know, the people who go there

00:12:13.710 --> 00:12:18.990
and dress in their goofy costumes and hold their

00:12:18.990 --> 00:12:23.570
chimes and they're chanting, what, really, point

00:12:23.570 --> 00:12:25.929
to something that actually got accomplished by

00:12:25.929 --> 00:12:27.970
doing that. Nothing. Not a damn thing. Nothing.

00:12:28.049 --> 00:12:30.289
They just felt a little better about themselves.

00:12:30.429 --> 00:12:34.509
And that's all it's for. Yeah. At least as far

00:12:34.509 --> 00:12:35.929
as they're concerned. That's the only reason

00:12:35.929 --> 00:12:37.470
they're doing it is because it's a temporary

00:12:37.470 --> 00:12:39.590
high. They feel like they've done something.

00:12:40.070 --> 00:12:42.490
CVS might have got a spike in blue and green

00:12:42.490 --> 00:12:44.529
hair coloring. But, I mean, other than that,

00:12:44.549 --> 00:12:46.529
I mean, orange and stuff like that. But other

00:12:46.529 --> 00:12:50.149
than that. It's really odd to see so many people

00:12:50.149 --> 00:12:53.190
who can't recognize they're being given a useless

00:12:53.190 --> 00:12:56.389
activity to keep them busy. Yeah. And that nothing

00:12:56.389 --> 00:12:58.389
is going to happen and nothing is going to change.

00:12:59.070 --> 00:13:01.429
Plus the fact that every one of those rallies

00:13:01.429 --> 00:13:05.149
and protests is swarmed with cameras, and all

00:13:05.149 --> 00:13:07.850
that information is being fed to AI, and they're

00:13:07.850 --> 00:13:10.669
finding out exactly who's there doing what. And

00:13:10.669 --> 00:13:13.250
if anyone is going to come after you, you're

00:13:13.250 --> 00:13:16.710
providing them every way to find you by showing

00:13:16.710 --> 00:13:19.309
up and doing that. I don't see why it's worth

00:13:19.309 --> 00:13:21.250
it, because nothing is getting accomplished,

00:13:21.350 --> 00:13:24.490
and you're putting yourself right in the crosshairs.

00:13:25.190 --> 00:13:27.470
Okay, well, if that's what you want to do, but...

00:13:27.710 --> 00:13:29.610
People like that are very dangerous to be around.

00:13:30.129 --> 00:13:35.590
Yes, I agree. Anyway, we got there from Kid Rock,

00:13:35.649 --> 00:13:39.789
I guess. Oh, yeah, yeah. I got the nine best

00:13:39.789 --> 00:13:42.669
albums recorded in a day or less. Oh, that sounds

00:13:42.669 --> 00:13:46.230
good. Okay, well, this is theirs. Most of them

00:13:46.230 --> 00:13:49.690
I agree with, but okay. The number one they have

00:13:49.690 --> 00:13:52.529
is Bob Dylan, Another Side of Bob Dylan in 1964.

00:13:53.409 --> 00:13:58.059
Oh, wow. It was recorded in four hours. amazing

00:13:58.059 --> 00:14:00.740
four hours that album was recorded in four albums

00:14:00.740 --> 00:14:05.779
that is a pretty uh that's like one or two takes

00:14:05.779 --> 00:14:09.320
most yeah most gosh and the album does sound

00:14:09.320 --> 00:14:11.980
pretty good too so all right number two would

00:14:11.980 --> 00:14:13.980
be black sabbath black sabbath in approximately

00:14:13.980 --> 00:14:16.379
about the same amount of time that's amazing

00:14:16.379 --> 00:14:19.799
and paranoid was a song they read in 20 minutes

00:14:19.799 --> 00:14:22.940
because they needed more material, and they didn't

00:14:22.940 --> 00:14:24.159
have, and they're like, we've got to come up

00:14:24.159 --> 00:14:26.820
with another song. That I found on the list of

00:14:26.820 --> 00:14:29.799
album filler that made it big. Yeah, it was their

00:14:29.799 --> 00:14:35.379
biggest hit ever, and it's still their cornerstone

00:14:35.379 --> 00:14:38.179
song. It was for Ozzy Solo and Black Sabbath

00:14:38.179 --> 00:14:39.980
and all that, even when Deal was in the band.

00:14:40.659 --> 00:14:42.779
Paranoid was always one of the closing songs.

00:14:43.059 --> 00:14:49.019
Yep. So, number three. Miles Davis was recorded

00:14:49.019 --> 00:14:53.100
in about six hours. Kind of Blue was the name

00:14:53.100 --> 00:14:56.639
of the album, which is a good one. Yeah, I remember

00:14:56.639 --> 00:14:58.440
hearing that he liked to record things live.

00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:01.980
Yeah, and this was one of those, and it was recorded

00:15:01.980 --> 00:15:05.299
in probably pretty much one, two takes. I mean,

00:15:05.340 --> 00:15:09.220
really, I think most of it was one take. Plus,

00:15:09.360 --> 00:15:11.700
with jazz, it's not like every note's written

00:15:11.700 --> 00:15:14.580
down. So in a lot of ways, there aren't mistakes.

00:15:14.759 --> 00:15:16.399
They're just things that maybe didn't sound quite

00:15:16.399 --> 00:15:18.600
good enough. And that's one of the beauties about

00:15:18.600 --> 00:15:20.899
jazz is, I mean, if you play what you feel, you

00:15:20.899 --> 00:15:22.960
pretty much got it made, don't you? Yeah, you

00:15:22.960 --> 00:15:26.019
can make any note fit if you lead into it correctly.

00:15:26.179 --> 00:15:28.179
Yeah, it's not bluegrass. It's like if you got

00:15:28.179 --> 00:15:31.379
one finger off, you're fucked. That's true. Oh,

00:15:31.399 --> 00:15:34.919
look, Air Force One. Oh, hey, all right, yeah.

00:15:35.480 --> 00:15:37.700
Oh, we're getting a thumbs up? Oh, wait. It's

00:15:37.700 --> 00:15:40.620
Air Force Two. It's Vance. Yeah, yeah. Oh, well.

00:15:40.879 --> 00:15:43.039
You know what? He's a big fan of the show. That's

00:15:43.039 --> 00:15:45.820
true. We did know this. So, hey, thanks, JD.

00:15:46.200 --> 00:15:48.799
He's giving us a salute. I told him. Oh, yeah.

00:15:48.799 --> 00:15:50.639
He waggled his wings. Yeah, he did. That was

00:15:50.639 --> 00:15:58.720
nice. No, I don't want your couch. All right.

00:15:59.000 --> 00:16:03.399
Google it. Number four. The Beatles. Please,

00:16:03.399 --> 00:16:06.889
please me. Yeah, I can see that being one day.

00:16:07.110 --> 00:16:10.409
That was not... Plus, those were songs they'd

00:16:10.409 --> 00:16:12.269
already been playing for two years. Yes, yeah.

00:16:12.649 --> 00:16:14.570
So they could do them in their sleep. They have

00:16:14.570 --> 00:16:16.730
this on here, but I don't know if I really counted

00:16:16.730 --> 00:16:18.710
or not, because like you said, they were playing

00:16:18.710 --> 00:16:22.029
the songs forever. But I guess it does fit. It

00:16:22.029 --> 00:16:25.750
took them less than a day. Yeah. Okay. The Ramones,

00:16:25.889 --> 00:16:31.409
their initial effort in 1976, was recorded in

00:16:31.409 --> 00:16:34.779
about six... To seven hours. Yeah. Punk, you

00:16:34.779 --> 00:16:37.100
don't really care much about sound quality. No.

00:16:37.179 --> 00:16:40.259
Or mistakes. Well, it's very believable. I mean,

00:16:40.299 --> 00:16:43.159
the album, as much as I love it, it was recorded

00:16:43.159 --> 00:16:46.820
in six, seven hours. Yeah. How about the White

00:16:46.820 --> 00:16:50.379
Stripes Elephant? Oh, wow. Recorded in a little

00:16:50.379 --> 00:16:53.919
bit under seven hours. That's a hard day's work.

00:16:54.120 --> 00:16:58.049
Yeah, it is. And the album is fantastic. Especially

00:16:58.049 --> 00:17:00.629
some of the guitar work on there. I find really

00:17:00.629 --> 00:17:02.509
good, like the reverse feedback and some of the

00:17:02.509 --> 00:17:05.869
stuff that he did. Very good. Very, very... Inventive.

00:17:06.190 --> 00:17:09.849
Inventive, yeah. And also his own sound. Yeah.

00:17:10.509 --> 00:17:15.430
Because guitar parts aren't necessarily the notes,

00:17:15.430 --> 00:17:17.190
it's the sounds. Yeah, absolutely. It is the

00:17:17.190 --> 00:17:19.529
sounds that you create. Yeah, there's sounds,

00:17:19.650 --> 00:17:23.819
guitar tones. that you need in order to make

00:17:23.819 --> 00:17:25.900
those notes work. If you don't have the tone,

00:17:25.920 --> 00:17:27.839
it just doesn't come off right. This album to

00:17:27.839 --> 00:17:30.019
me, although it's not really my cup of tea, is

00:17:30.019 --> 00:17:32.400
a brilliantly wrote album and also produced.

00:17:33.599 --> 00:17:36.900
I'm thinking a good example of needing the right

00:17:36.900 --> 00:17:39.759
tone would be Eddie Van Halen's compositions.

00:17:40.319 --> 00:17:43.019
Without that or something close to that guitar

00:17:43.019 --> 00:17:45.420
tone, they just don't sound right. His tone tells

00:17:45.420 --> 00:17:48.240
his personality, and that's what you want. That's

00:17:48.240 --> 00:17:51.299
what you want. You want it telling a story without

00:17:51.299 --> 00:17:55.539
words. Yeah. And that's what it does. How about

00:17:55.539 --> 00:17:58.380
Led Zeppelin? Led Zeppelin. Oh, wow. Released

00:17:58.380 --> 00:18:02.480
in 1969. Took about eight hours. Now, that one

00:18:02.480 --> 00:18:04.200
sounded like they all got together in the studio

00:18:04.200 --> 00:18:06.559
to record at the same time. They did. They did.

00:18:06.720 --> 00:18:10.000
And according to them, John Bonham was the reason

00:18:10.000 --> 00:18:12.160
it went so well. Because as soon as he started

00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:14.740
doing his beats, everyone just knew what to do.

00:18:14.740 --> 00:18:16.240
Just locked right in, yeah. Locked right in.

00:18:16.279 --> 00:18:20.119
And listened to, I mean, his stuff. Not fancy,

00:18:20.240 --> 00:18:23.660
just good. Yeah. Real good. Yeah. He had the

00:18:23.660 --> 00:18:27.079
art of not playing the beat, not playing part

00:18:27.079 --> 00:18:30.160
of it, which made it be him playing it. Yeah,

00:18:30.180 --> 00:18:32.740
it's the stuff he left out that makes such a

00:18:32.740 --> 00:18:35.799
difference. Oh, and the way he hit with authority.

00:18:36.619 --> 00:18:40.440
The drums. He could hit a tom -tom, and you go,

00:18:40.500 --> 00:18:43.799
oh, that sounds like John Bonham. And he could

00:18:43.799 --> 00:18:46.240
play the little soft ghost notes, too. He could,

00:18:46.339 --> 00:18:49.119
too. He did it all very good. If only he hadn't

00:18:49.119 --> 00:18:53.640
drunk so much. Yep, yep. If only Jimmy Page wouldn't

00:18:53.640 --> 00:18:55.960
have sacrificed his life to Satan, he'd be alive

00:18:55.960 --> 00:19:01.359
today. Allegedly. Allegedly. All right, number

00:19:01.359 --> 00:19:04.359
eight would be Metallica, Kill Them All. Oh,

00:19:04.400 --> 00:19:07.650
I didn't know that. Great album. Great album.

00:19:08.670 --> 00:19:11.589
But, listen to it, you can see where it was.

00:19:11.930 --> 00:19:14.529
Yeah. You can see how it was recorded in one

00:19:14.529 --> 00:19:17.289
day. Because it is sloppy, but that also lends

00:19:17.289 --> 00:19:19.690
to how good it is. Yep. You know, it's kind of

00:19:19.690 --> 00:19:21.690
like a Guns N' Roses. Guns N' Roses is sloppy,

00:19:21.849 --> 00:19:24.150
but you have to have that to get what they're

00:19:24.150 --> 00:19:27.470
trying to do. Yeah. So, and then finally, Nick

00:19:27.470 --> 00:19:32.990
Drake, Pink Moon, which, okay, whatever. Well,

00:19:33.009 --> 00:19:38.769
I've got a couple. to throw in. Oh, yeah. One

00:19:38.769 --> 00:19:41.730
is, this one was recorded in a day. It was Alice

00:19:41.730 --> 00:19:44.470
Cooper's first album, Pretties for You. Oh, you

00:19:44.470 --> 00:19:46.410
know what? I thought of that, and I should have

00:19:46.410 --> 00:19:49.910
put it down, but yeah. Yeah, they auditioned

00:19:49.910 --> 00:19:52.269
for Zappa, and he said, okay, I'll record you.

00:19:52.690 --> 00:19:55.549
But he booked them one afternoon slash evening,

00:19:55.650 --> 00:19:57.970
and he said, whatever we record today is your

00:19:57.970 --> 00:20:04.089
album. This is it. And a number of the tracks,

00:20:04.779 --> 00:20:08.079
were recorded while the band was rehearsing or

00:20:08.079 --> 00:20:13.480
just jamming while tuning up. And they were recording

00:20:13.480 --> 00:20:15.380
and said, yep, good enough. We don't have time

00:20:15.380 --> 00:20:18.099
to do it again. So his first album was really

00:20:18.099 --> 00:20:21.539
rough and really experimental. And along those

00:20:21.539 --> 00:20:24.880
same lines, there was a Def Leppard album. I

00:20:24.880 --> 00:20:27.200
forget which one. I think it was before the drummer

00:20:27.200 --> 00:20:32.119
lost his arm. And the label hired a producer

00:20:32.119 --> 00:20:34.559
that the band didn't want. But they were stuck

00:20:34.559 --> 00:20:36.480
with him. Oh, I remember a little bit. Yeah,

00:20:36.559 --> 00:20:38.960
yeah. And again, they were setting up and practicing

00:20:38.960 --> 00:20:42.460
and tuning, and he was recording those in rough

00:20:42.460 --> 00:20:44.460
takes and saying, okay, yeah, I think we got

00:20:44.460 --> 00:20:46.680
it. That's it. We've captured a moment in the

00:20:46.680 --> 00:20:48.920
studio. Let's move on. They're like, hell no.

00:20:49.279 --> 00:20:52.900
We weren't even trying with that one. They eventually

00:20:52.900 --> 00:20:55.500
threw away absolutely everything that he'd recorded

00:20:55.500 --> 00:20:57.660
and started over. Yeah, that's what I thought.

00:20:57.920 --> 00:21:01.460
Well, Mutt Lange, everything he touches is gold.

00:21:02.059 --> 00:21:03.920
Because he spends the time and money to do it

00:21:03.920 --> 00:21:06.259
right. But the label wanted something fast and

00:21:06.259 --> 00:21:08.079
quick and easy, and they didn't care if it made

00:21:08.079 --> 00:21:10.180
money or not. It's like they were giving up on

00:21:10.180 --> 00:21:12.700
Def Leppard already. Yeah, and I respected Def

00:21:12.700 --> 00:21:14.539
Leppard for every bit of that, too. They're the

00:21:14.539 --> 00:21:16.579
ones that re -engineered their whole album and

00:21:16.579 --> 00:21:20.960
scrapped it. Was that hysteria? I think it was

00:21:20.960 --> 00:21:23.720
hysteria, yeah. Yeah, they had the whole thing

00:21:23.720 --> 00:21:29.500
done. Because Hysteria is a song. It's Pyromania.

00:21:29.960 --> 00:21:35.400
Hysteria was a song on the next album. Okay,

00:21:35.460 --> 00:21:37.440
well, anyhow, one of their first four albums

00:21:37.440 --> 00:21:40.160
was it. And they just scrapped the whole thing

00:21:40.160 --> 00:21:42.059
and said, nah, we don't like it. And they went

00:21:42.059 --> 00:21:44.880
in a different direction. And actually, they

00:21:44.880 --> 00:21:47.339
thought they screwed up. It did not hit at first.

00:21:47.579 --> 00:21:50.940
People didn't like it at first. But then, pour

00:21:50.940 --> 00:21:52.940
some sugar on me and some songs like that got

00:21:52.940 --> 00:21:56.839
big at the strip clubs. Yep. And then Love Bites

00:21:56.839 --> 00:22:01.299
became like a ballad, per se. Then I started

00:22:01.299 --> 00:22:04.839
Animals on the radio a lot. Animal, yeah. Armageddon

00:22:04.839 --> 00:22:08.480
it. Armageddon it, yeah. But they were worried

00:22:08.480 --> 00:22:11.900
about... Hey there, slapmets. It's time for the

00:22:11.900 --> 00:22:17.119
Creeps Music News. Hey, my little pumpkin seeds.

00:22:17.240 --> 00:22:19.859
This is Johnny Rohypnol with your music news.

00:22:20.380 --> 00:22:25.390
Remember the 70s rock band, Angel? Yep, those

00:22:25.390 --> 00:22:28.670
guys. All dressed in white with the logo that

00:22:28.670 --> 00:22:34.269
read, Angel, Upside or Down. Yes, those guys.

00:22:34.650 --> 00:22:38.410
Well, they have a final album in the works with

00:22:38.410 --> 00:22:42.170
a final tour. No date set yet, but the album

is coming out this summer. This is Johnny Rohypnol.

00:22:46.390 --> 00:22:49.809
That was your music news. And remember, bar chords

00:22:49.809 --> 00:23:20.440
are bullshit. This is like, I can fake... gibberish

00:23:20.440 --> 00:23:22.660
italian but it's not italian it doesn't really

00:23:22.660 --> 00:23:24.700
sound italian but somebody would hear you oh

00:23:24.700 --> 00:23:27.140
maybe that's italian yeah it's because you get

00:23:27.140 --> 00:23:29.059
the sound of the language you can fake your way

00:23:29.059 --> 00:23:32.579
through it but it's and it doesn't even really

00:23:32.579 --> 00:23:35.359
mean anything yeah and also you can tell most

00:23:35.359 --> 00:23:38.259

Yeah. Who is that idiot? All right, go ahead.

00:23:53.150 --> 00:23:57.140
I've got a story here about Prop Store. One of

00:23:57.140 --> 00:23:59.500

.5 million pounds, which is about $2 million.

00:24:32.940 --> 00:24:36.119
When you say pounds, think about 25 % more for

00:24:36.119 --> 00:24:39.819
dollars. Yeah. Yeah, and that's us to them. No,

00:24:39.859 --> 00:24:42.160
no, no, no, no. No, the dollars worth less. Yes.

00:24:42.339 --> 00:24:45.400
Yeah, it takes $2 million to equal 1 .5 million

00:24:45.400 --> 00:24:46.680
pounds. It's on the same planet as Europe. Yeah.

00:24:46.720 --> 00:24:50.660
Yeah, it's working pretty well. Okay, highlights

00:24:50.660 --> 00:24:53.880
of the auction include Slash's photo -matched,

00:24:53.960 --> 00:24:55.740
photo -matched meaning they've matched it with

00:24:55.740 --> 00:24:58.319
photos to authenticate it, but it's his stage

00:24:58.319 --> 00:25:01.839

video for his 1987 hit Faith. and during live

00:25:34.980 --> 00:25:37.599
performances on the accompanying tour. Distinctive

00:25:37.599 --> 00:25:39.599
details on the jacket aligned with well -known

00:25:39.599 --> 00:25:41.799
photographs taken by Chris Cafaro during the

00:25:41.799 --> 00:25:44.400
era. They found it in a public bathroom. I think

00:25:44.400 --> 00:25:46.220
they did, yeah, on the floor, crumpled. Yeah,

00:25:46.220 --> 00:25:52.839
sticky. No offense to the dead. It was also matched

00:25:52.839 --> 00:25:55.000
to an image captured by Michael Putland backstage

00:25:55.000 --> 00:25:58.740
during the Japanese and Australasian tour leg

00:25:58.740 --> 00:26:00.859
of the tour. So this jacket's been all over the

00:26:00.859 --> 00:26:03.910
world with him. This piece is offered with a

00:26:03.910 --> 00:26:07.269
presale estimate of 60 ,000 to 120 ,000 pounds.

00:26:08.730 --> 00:26:12.009
Among the most significant lots is an autographed

00:26:12.009 --> 00:26:14.829
large -format promotional poster for John Lennon

00:26:14.829 --> 00:26:17.990
and Yoko Ono's Double Fantasy, signed on the

00:26:17.990 --> 00:26:21.130
morning of December 8, 1980, only hours before

00:26:21.130 --> 00:26:23.930
his assassination. This is probably about the

00:26:23.930 --> 00:26:26.920
time he signed David... Mark David Chapman's

00:26:26.920 --> 00:26:29.119
autograph. Yeah, there's a picture of him signing

00:26:29.119 --> 00:26:32.019
an autograph for him earlier in the day. Wow.

00:26:32.720 --> 00:26:35.240
So this is thought to be the last item he ever

00:26:35.240 --> 00:26:38.180
autographed. So he signed Chapman's autograph

00:26:38.180 --> 00:26:40.920
before that then. Probably maybe the same signing.

00:26:41.140 --> 00:26:44.619
Yeah. Wow. This is the first time the poster

00:26:44.619 --> 00:26:46.480
has been offered at auction, an accompanying

00:26:46.480 --> 00:26:50.220
audio recording. captures Lennon discussing the

00:26:50.220 --> 00:26:52.940
signing and retracing his signature in black

00:26:52.940 --> 00:26:55.980
felt -tip pen after the ballpoint ink failed

00:26:55.980 --> 00:26:59.259
to set. Oh, wow. So he actually signed it twice.

00:26:59.700 --> 00:27:02.619
Wow. This is offered pre -sale estimate of $60

00:27:02.619 --> 00:27:04.839
,000 to $120 ,000. Double Fantasy might be the

00:27:04.839 --> 00:27:07.400
best album that he released with the hideous

00:27:07.400 --> 00:27:13.779
wildebeest known as Yoko Ono. Yes. Yeah. Yeah.

00:27:14.220 --> 00:27:17.259
Doesn't that have a woman on it? I think so,

00:27:17.359 --> 00:27:19.599
yeah. Let's see. It had a couple other really

00:27:19.599 --> 00:27:23.900
good songs, too. Anyhow, with her on it, that's

00:27:23.900 --> 00:27:27.019
one of his best albums. Yeah. Not him solo without

00:27:27.019 --> 00:27:30.779
her on it, but with her on it. Yeah. Bill does

00:27:30.779 --> 00:27:33.240
him both of them, John Lennon, Yoko Ono. Yeah.

00:27:34.079 --> 00:27:40.119
I played in a band in the 80s called Passage,

00:27:40.160 --> 00:27:43.880
and for a while they were doing cover songs.

00:27:45.799 --> 00:27:47.759
they didn't really like it, so they wanted to

00:27:47.759 --> 00:27:49.960
go all originals, which we tried to do all our

00:27:49.960 --> 00:27:52.500
own compositions, and I quickly got bored because

00:27:52.500 --> 00:27:56.119
they were all very slow and folky kind of songs.

00:27:57.740 --> 00:28:01.079
So when I left, the younger brother, Michael,

00:28:01.240 --> 00:28:05.440
took over on drums, and he actually made a go

00:28:05.440 --> 00:28:07.579
of it. I remember years later running into the

00:28:07.579 --> 00:28:11.240
guitar player, Phil, Phil Brose, and he said

00:28:11.240 --> 00:28:16.150
Michael had married a... Japanese girl who was

00:28:16.150 --> 00:28:19.109
basically doing what Yoko Ono does, which is

00:28:19.109 --> 00:28:22.470
stand at the mic and scream. Oh, cool. I was

00:28:22.470 --> 00:28:23.910
getting ready to say tearing the band apart,

00:28:24.029 --> 00:28:26.650
but okay. She was doing the onstage, you know,

00:28:26.650 --> 00:28:28.609
stand at the mic and shriek and scream and make

00:28:28.609 --> 00:28:31.069
animal noises and stuff. But it was actually

00:28:31.069 --> 00:28:33.470
popular, and he was actually having a pretty

00:28:33.470 --> 00:28:36.250
good career touring the world with his screaming

00:28:36.250 --> 00:28:43.220
Japanese girlfriend on vocals. His name was Michael

00:28:43.220 --> 00:28:45.140
Livermore. I don't know if he performed under

00:28:45.140 --> 00:28:47.819
that name or what his girlfriend's name was or

00:28:47.819 --> 00:28:48.900
wife or whatever. He should have changed it to

00:28:48.900 --> 00:28:51.940
Liverpool. Yeah, Liverpool would be good. But

00:28:51.940 --> 00:28:54.819
I don't know that anybody from that band ever

00:28:54.819 --> 00:28:59.319
really made it big. It was Jerry Livermore was

00:28:59.319 --> 00:29:01.740
a guitar player, and he was really good. And

00:29:01.740 --> 00:29:03.559
then Phil Brose on another guitar. That's Gary

00:29:03.559 --> 00:29:06.680
Moore's brother, right? Yeah. Another guitarist,

00:29:06.700 --> 00:29:11.240
yeah. But I just thought it odd that... I think

00:29:11.240 --> 00:29:13.940
one Yoko Ono should be enough, but apparently

00:29:13.940 --> 00:29:15.660
there's room for more. I guess not. It must be

00:29:15.660 --> 00:29:17.720
going around, I guess. Maybe it was a franchise

00:29:17.720 --> 00:29:20.460
thing, like McDonald's or something. I guess

00:29:20.460 --> 00:29:23.980
so. Obnoxious woman that screams is of Asian

00:29:23.980 --> 00:29:27.000
descent. Yeah, it's a big thing. I remember talking

00:29:27.000 --> 00:29:29.180
to his mom about it, because at the time she

00:29:29.180 --> 00:29:31.420
was keyboards in the band, and she just thought

00:29:31.420 --> 00:29:33.700
it was funny as hell. She was like, I guess people

00:29:33.700 --> 00:29:36.170
like it or something. They're touring. They're

00:29:36.170 --> 00:29:37.650
touring. You've got to have a gimmick. You've

00:29:37.650 --> 00:29:40.650
got to have your thing. It's like, what's that?

00:29:40.849 --> 00:29:44.529
Oh, that's his screaming woman. Oh, okay. Thanks.

00:29:46.029 --> 00:29:48.470
Oh, I'm still not done with the story, so I forgot

00:29:48.470 --> 00:29:52.890
about that. Okay, auction also includes a music

00:29:52.890 --> 00:29:56.869
award in the shape of Shure 565SD microphone

00:29:56.869 --> 00:30:00.509
made in gold. It was presented to the band Queen

00:30:00.509 --> 00:30:04.019
and used by Freddie Mercury. Actually, it is

00:30:04.019 --> 00:30:05.940
a microphone. It's an actual microphone. It's

00:30:05.940 --> 00:30:08.700
not an award. It was awarded to him. Okay. But

00:30:08.700 --> 00:30:10.319
it was an actual microphone made out of gold.

00:30:10.519 --> 00:30:12.619
Okay. The microphone comes directly from the

00:30:12.619 --> 00:30:15.099
collection of Peter Hintz, Queen's head roadie,

00:30:15.099 --> 00:30:17.259
and Mercury's personal assistant on tour, to

00:30:17.259 --> 00:30:19.440
whom it was gifted by Mercury. This is the first

00:30:19.440 --> 00:30:21.980
example with direct provenance from Hintz to

00:30:21.980 --> 00:30:24.900
be offered at auction. It carries a pre -sale

00:30:24.900 --> 00:30:27.700
estimate of $30 ,000 to $60 ,000. That's not

00:30:27.700 --> 00:30:32.109
as bad as I thought it would be, actually. Auction

00:30:32.109 --> 00:30:34.470
will take place live on Thursday, April 30th,

00:30:34.470 --> 00:30:37.309
2026, with bidding available online, by telephone,

00:30:37.509 --> 00:30:40.109
and via absentee bids for collectors worldwide.

00:30:40.309 --> 00:30:41.670
So you can actually hire somebody to go there

00:30:41.670 --> 00:30:44.049
and stand there in person and bid for you. Okay.

00:30:44.490 --> 00:30:48.109
Some of the other highlights are Paul McCartney's

00:30:48.109 --> 00:30:51.930
handwritten goodbye first draft lyrics, approximately

00:30:51.930 --> 00:30:58.569
1969. Should go from between $72 ,600 to $145

00:30:58.569 --> 00:31:02.579
,000. Okay. Jimmy Hendrix, Noel Redding, and

00:31:02.579 --> 00:31:06.160
Mitch Mitchell autographed 51st Anniversary Handwritten

00:31:06.160 --> 00:31:10.579
Lyrics from 1967. Okay, very cool. $46 ,000 to

00:31:10.579 --> 00:31:15.000
$92 ,000. David Bowie's Aladdin Sane Concept

00:31:15.000 --> 00:31:18.420
Cover Vintage Proof Print. So it's the album

00:31:18.420 --> 00:31:21.460
cover for Aladdin Sane. And this is the proof

00:31:21.460 --> 00:31:23.859
print of the photograph. It's the one that they

00:31:23.859 --> 00:31:25.920
looked at and said, yes, this is the one we want

00:31:25.920 --> 00:31:28.500
to use, print this one. So you can have the original.

00:31:28.500 --> 00:31:31.079
See, out of all the memorabilia, I love that

00:31:31.079 --> 00:31:34.039
one. It's like, yeah, this is what they said,

00:31:34.220 --> 00:31:37.079
yes, we want that. I love that. See, that's what

00:31:37.079 --> 00:31:39.839
the NFTs were trying to be. They're trying to

00:31:39.839 --> 00:31:42.700
manufacture value based on something ridiculous.

00:31:43.079 --> 00:31:46.599
Yeah, the problem is the way they described them

00:31:46.599 --> 00:31:49.480
basically being nothing is what people took them

00:31:49.480 --> 00:31:52.200
as. They really basically had no description.

00:31:52.779 --> 00:31:56.980
Yeah. It's called this coin. What about it? It's

00:31:56.980 --> 00:31:58.859
unique. There's only one of these ever. Well,

00:31:58.940 --> 00:32:01.019
you say the same thing about that claw to dirt.

00:32:01.160 --> 00:32:03.119
Let's get ready to say a pebble. Yeah. Yeah.

00:32:03.299 --> 00:32:05.440
There's no. Yeah. They see all those rocks on

00:32:05.440 --> 00:32:07.500
the bank over there. Those could all be NFTs

00:32:07.500 --> 00:32:10.180
because all of them are completely unique. Yeah.

00:32:10.279 --> 00:32:12.900
See, it just doesn't matter. It only has value

00:32:12.900 --> 00:32:18.019
if we decide they do. Yeah. Okay. Motley Crue,

00:32:18.059 --> 00:32:20.920
Nikki Sixx, photomatched, autographed, and inscribed

00:32:20.920 --> 00:32:25.420
stage -used Schecter J4 bass guitar. I do like

00:32:25.420 --> 00:32:29.000
that bass. Roughly $13 ,000 to $26 ,000 is estimated

00:32:29.000 --> 00:32:30.680
to go for it. That's not as much as I thought

00:32:30.680 --> 00:32:31.720
it would be. Not as much as I thought it would

00:32:31.720 --> 00:32:33.940
be, yeah. That would be great, because that's

00:32:33.940 --> 00:32:40.680
the oblong one with the back... Gee, how would...

00:32:42.039 --> 00:32:45.279
Just look up the Schecter J4. Yeah. Yeah, there

00:32:45.279 --> 00:32:47.960
we go. There's really no way to describe the

00:32:47.960 --> 00:32:49.640
shape, but I always love the shape. It's very

00:32:49.640 --> 00:32:53.180
unique. Let's see. We have something from Live

00:32:53.180 --> 00:32:57.940
Aid in 1985. Oh, okay. It's a concert program

00:32:57.940 --> 00:33:01.039
and assorted production paperwork signed by Queen,

00:33:01.319 --> 00:33:03.779
Paul McCartney, George Michael, David Bowie,

00:33:03.880 --> 00:33:07.529
Elton John, and others. Oh, nice. Going to be

00:33:07.529 --> 00:33:09.269
doing $13 ,000 to $26 ,000. That's the creme

00:33:09.269 --> 00:33:11.609
de la creme right there. All those autographs

00:33:11.609 --> 00:33:15.150
on a live aid program. Wow. Yeah, that's going

00:33:15.150 --> 00:33:17.829
to go higher, I think. So all of Queen? All of

00:33:17.829 --> 00:33:22.109
it? Yep, all of Queen. Okay. And you said George

00:33:22.109 --> 00:33:24.390
Michael? Paul McCartney, George Michael, David

00:33:24.390 --> 00:33:27.089
Bowie, Elton John, and others. Oh, and others.

00:33:27.150 --> 00:33:31.869
Yeah. Amazing. That is. From Oasis, Noel Gallagher's

00:33:31.869 --> 00:33:34.650
Les Paul custom 20th anniversary guitar played

00:33:34.650 --> 00:33:36.890
during recording of Standing on the Shoulder

00:33:36.890 --> 00:33:40.329
of Giants and Heathen Chemistry. Eh, no thank

00:33:40.329 --> 00:33:43.569
you. Estimated 10 ,000 to 20 ,000 pounds. I'm

00:33:43.569 --> 00:33:46.930
just not an Oasis fan, never have been. I find

00:33:46.930 --> 00:33:49.869
them extremely obnoxious. They look punchable.

00:33:50.009 --> 00:33:52.569
Yeah. Both of them look very punchable. Now this

00:33:52.569 --> 00:33:55.630
one I'm not really sure. It's Eurovision Song

00:33:55.630 --> 00:33:59.000
Contest Award. If you're selling it in Europe.

00:33:59.079 --> 00:34:02.339
So the Eurovision Song Contest Composers Award

00:34:02.339 --> 00:34:05.900
Trophy, which was presented to Benjamin Alassu

00:34:05.900 --> 00:34:11.320
for The Code by someone named Nemo. Okay. And

00:34:11.320 --> 00:34:13.719
that's supposed to go for the same amount as

00:34:13.719 --> 00:34:18.579
the Live Aid program with the autographs and

00:34:18.579 --> 00:34:21.980
Gallagher's guitar. Okay. They're lumping those

00:34:21.980 --> 00:34:24.360
all in the same value range, which seems odd

00:34:24.360 --> 00:34:26.699
to me. Yeah, that's kind of odd to me too, but

00:34:26.699 --> 00:34:30.159
okay. The Notorious B .I .G.'s custom leather

00:34:30.159 --> 00:34:32.519
jacket, worn in Rhyme and Reason documentary,

00:34:32.880 --> 00:34:39.019
also the $13 ,000 to $26 ,000 range. From Guns

00:34:39.019 --> 00:34:41.619
N' Roses, Matt Sorums played and autographed

00:34:41.619 --> 00:34:44.699
Guns N' Roses partial Mapex Orion series drum

00:34:44.699 --> 00:34:49.320
kit. Partial Mapex Orion drums. So some of the

00:34:49.320 --> 00:34:51.780
other drums weren't from that manufacturer. He

00:34:51.780 --> 00:34:54.239
had an endorsement deal with Mapex, and he was

00:34:54.239 --> 00:34:56.639
pimping the Orion series. But when we went on

00:34:56.639 --> 00:34:59.500
tour, he added some other drums to it. So you're

00:34:59.500 --> 00:35:03.719
getting those too. Estimated $10 ,500 to $21

00:35:03.719 --> 00:35:09.780
,000. That sounds about right. Amy Winehouse's

00:35:09.780 --> 00:35:12.579
Fred Perry Crop Trench Coat. Estimated between

00:35:12.579 --> 00:35:16.969
$5 ,000 and $10 ,000. Okay. This one I'm sure

00:35:16.969 --> 00:35:19.809
you're going to be going for. Ed Sheeran's screen

00:35:19.809 --> 00:35:22.150
-matched and autographed jacket and worn ensemble

00:35:22.150 --> 00:35:24.929
pieces from the Shape of You music video. Oh,

00:35:24.929 --> 00:35:27.289
I can't wait for that one, yeah. You can get

00:35:27.289 --> 00:35:29.809
it from somewhere between $4 ,000 and $9 ,000.

00:35:30.150 --> 00:35:34.570
Oh, nice. Now, they do have a few things for

00:35:34.570 --> 00:35:40.949
people with a smaller budget. From the manned

00:35:40.949 --> 00:35:43.550
Little Mix, the set of four stage -worn Saloon

00:35:43.550 --> 00:35:46.829
Girls costumes, estimated somewhere between $2

00:35:46.829 --> 00:35:50.849
,000 and $4 ,000. From Foo Fighters, Dave Grohl,

00:35:50.969 --> 00:35:53.929
Taylor Hawkins, and Nate Mendel, and Chris Shifflett,

00:35:54.030 --> 00:35:59.989
autographed a photo. $600 to $1 ,300. I mean,

00:36:00.070 --> 00:36:03.969
Taylor Hawkins is dead, so that probably is the

00:36:03.969 --> 00:36:06.190
more valuable autograph on the piece. I would

00:36:06.190 --> 00:36:11.099
think so, yeah. And then from ABBA, it was signed

00:36:11.099 --> 00:36:15.239
by Agnetha, Bjorn, Benny, and Annefrid, an autographed

00:36:15.239 --> 00:36:18.000
photo book. And this one is expected to go from

00:36:18.000 --> 00:36:22.440
between $130 and $260. Not much. Not much at

00:36:22.440 --> 00:36:24.599
all. Not much for something from ABBA. Yeah,

00:36:24.719 --> 00:36:27.480
and ABBA was so popular, too, that kind of surprises

00:36:27.480 --> 00:36:31.159
me. Very enormous, yeah. But they're one of those

00:36:31.159 --> 00:36:33.699
bands that once they stop being enormously popular,

00:36:34.019 --> 00:36:36.599
everyone just kind of forgot about them. They

00:36:36.599 --> 00:36:38.300
did, you're right. Yeah, I mean, the Beatles

00:36:38.300 --> 00:36:41.360
quit being enormously popular, but everyone remembered

00:36:41.360 --> 00:36:42.820
and still bought their stuff. I got a question

00:36:42.820 --> 00:36:44.500
for you. I got to think about this about Abbott.

00:36:44.599 --> 00:36:47.219
What song do you remember by him? Dancing Queen?

00:36:47.820 --> 00:36:51.059
Dancing Queen, Fernando. Oh, Fernando, okay.

00:36:51.699 --> 00:36:55.400
But mostly Dancing Queen. That's the one I think

00:36:55.400 --> 00:36:57.679
I heard the most. As popular as they were, ask

00:36:57.679 --> 00:37:01.699
anybody, Dancing Queen, Fernando, you can't really

00:37:01.699 --> 00:37:04.769
remember very many other songs than that. And

00:37:04.769 --> 00:37:06.510
they didn't build their career on two songs.

00:37:06.750 --> 00:37:09.570
No, they had a lot of songs. But I think the

00:37:09.570 --> 00:37:13.150
problem is a lot of them sounded the same. It

00:37:13.150 --> 00:37:15.170
is true. That's true. They had a lot of them

00:37:15.170 --> 00:37:17.630
all four singing. They had the same orchestral

00:37:17.630 --> 00:37:22.670
disco thing going on. It wasn't really my thing,

00:37:22.750 --> 00:37:24.650
but I could see where people could like them.

00:37:24.690 --> 00:37:27.750
It was kind of like U2 where I never kind of

00:37:27.750 --> 00:37:31.880
caught their popularity. You can see something

00:37:31.880 --> 00:37:34.920
there, but not enough to warrant what everything

00:37:34.920 --> 00:37:36.880
was going on. Yeah, where everybody's like flipped

00:37:36.880 --> 00:37:38.760
out over it and going, oh, this is the best guy.

00:37:39.500 --> 00:37:42.219
My headphones are tangled. There we go. Okay.

00:37:42.599 --> 00:37:45.219
All right. So that's the end of the auction.

00:37:45.559 --> 00:37:50.039
Okay. I've got some unexplained noises on albums.

00:37:50.380 --> 00:37:55.960
Okay. Yeah. Now, some of these are extra. Terrestrial

00:37:55.960 --> 00:38:00.099
or something, or paranormal, maybe. Or maybe

00:38:00.099 --> 00:38:04.800
there's a really good reason for it. It's just

00:38:04.800 --> 00:38:07.619
a little bit of everything here. Okay, this is

00:38:07.619 --> 00:38:10.000
Unexplained Noises on Albums. Led Zeppelin IV,

00:38:10.260 --> 00:38:13.900
when the levee breaks, that massive echoing drum

00:38:13.900 --> 00:38:18.099
sound, which I love. If you want to say, what

00:38:18.099 --> 00:38:20.780
does John Bonham sound like, point to that song.

00:38:23.710 --> 00:38:27.050
I just fucking, it's amazing. It sounds so huge.

00:38:27.050 --> 00:38:29.730
It does. It's huge. It is bigger than the whole

00:38:29.730 --> 00:38:32.570
song. And then you come in with that harmonica.

00:38:32.590 --> 00:38:34.929
It doesn't overtake it. It just kind of goes

00:38:34.929 --> 00:38:38.269
in the background. It's so good. Okay, it was

00:38:38.269 --> 00:38:42.070
recorded in a stairwell at Headley Grange. Ah.

00:38:42.449 --> 00:38:46.190
Yeah. All right. I have heard that in order to

00:38:46.190 --> 00:38:49.349
get the John Bonham drum sound, the secret was

00:38:49.349 --> 00:38:52.800
to use gated echo. So it would be an echo, but

00:38:52.800 --> 00:38:54.840
it would cut off at a certain point instead of

00:38:54.840 --> 00:38:57.400
just trailing away. I could see that. That's

00:38:57.400 --> 00:38:59.860
how you would get that percussion like it is.

00:39:00.320 --> 00:39:03.440
And he also didn't really use close micing on

00:39:03.440 --> 00:39:06.119
his drums. He would have them put one near the

00:39:06.119 --> 00:39:09.000
kick and near the snare, and then the rest were

00:39:09.000 --> 00:39:12.539
just all room mics. And they would have to mix

00:39:12.539 --> 00:39:14.519
it that way. He didn't want each individual drum

00:39:14.519 --> 00:39:16.460
with a mic on it and then mix later. He's like,

00:39:16.519 --> 00:39:19.780
no, I'll do the mixing myself by how I play.

00:39:20.599 --> 00:39:23.239
Okay. So he got a lot of room effect, and then

00:39:23.239 --> 00:39:25.340
the gated echo on top of that just made him sound

00:39:25.340 --> 00:39:28.860
massive. Yeah. But listeners have long claimed

00:39:28.860 --> 00:39:31.179
to think ghostly background noises and voices

00:39:31.179 --> 00:39:34.960
in the reverb tail. So they say in the reverb,

00:39:35.099 --> 00:39:38.159
they hear ghostly background noises and voices.

00:39:38.820 --> 00:39:42.380
Could be. Okay, but to me, that would be something

00:39:42.380 --> 00:39:44.639
that Led Zeppelin would do to get people to listen

00:39:44.639 --> 00:39:47.920
because they are so famous for their back masking

00:39:47.920 --> 00:39:53.019
and all that. It gets people interested. Young

00:39:53.019 --> 00:39:57.400
men are like, what? Really? They were sacrificing

00:39:57.400 --> 00:39:59.599
a goat while they were singing it? Oh, okay.

00:39:59.719 --> 00:40:01.059
It's the kind of thing where you smoke another

00:40:01.059 --> 00:40:03.059
bowl and play the album side again so you can

00:40:03.059 --> 00:40:05.320
hear it again. Oh, there it is. I hear it. Which

00:40:05.320 --> 00:40:07.780
is exactly what the artist wanted you to do.

00:40:07.780 --> 00:40:08.659
That's what they wanted you to do. Wear that

00:40:08.659 --> 00:40:10.219
album out so you have to buy a new one. Turn

00:40:10.219 --> 00:40:12.960
it backwards all you want. You're going to get

00:40:12.960 --> 00:40:16.460
a new one in a month. They double our album sales

00:40:16.460 --> 00:40:18.659
by talking our fans into wrecking their album.

00:40:18.860 --> 00:40:22.760
It was fucking awesome. This one I think everybody

00:40:22.760 --> 00:40:26.300
knows about. The Beatles' White Album. Revolution

00:40:26.300 --> 00:40:28.860
No. 9. Revolution No. 9, yeah. That's coming

00:40:28.860 --> 00:40:32.139
up on one of my lists. Oh, okay. A collage of

00:40:32.139 --> 00:40:35.579
tape loops, but some fragments, like murmured

00:40:35.579 --> 00:40:39.159
speech and reversed sounds, weren't fully cataloged.

00:40:39.960 --> 00:40:43.880
John Lennon and Yoko Ono layered random audio

00:40:43.880 --> 00:40:47.980
sources, some reportedly from tapes that... weren't

00:40:47.980 --> 00:40:51.699
even clearly labeled. Yeah. There's a ton of

00:40:51.699 --> 00:40:54.179
hidden audio in there. Yeah, and he's famous

00:40:54.179 --> 00:40:56.139
for doing that. They're both famous for doing

00:40:56.139 --> 00:41:01.559
that. Yeah. There's a Jimi Hendrix song. I think

00:41:01.559 --> 00:41:04.559
it's called When the Gods Made Love. Yeah. And

00:41:04.559 --> 00:41:07.599
if you separate that into four tracks and play

00:41:07.599 --> 00:41:10.480
one of the tracks backwards, you get the whole

00:41:10.480 --> 00:41:14.599
pornographic story of gods making love. And it's

00:41:14.599 --> 00:41:17.059
buried in the song in one of the four tracks

00:41:17.059 --> 00:41:23.800
backwards. Backwards. Yeah. Too much time in

00:41:23.800 --> 00:41:27.980
the studio. Great drugs. Great drugs. Great drugs.

00:41:28.380 --> 00:41:33.400
All right. The rise and fall of Ziggy Stardust

00:41:33.400 --> 00:41:37.519
and the Spiders from Mars. Big album. Yep. At

00:41:37.519 --> 00:41:39.820
the end, Bowie's vocal breakdown includes faint

00:41:39.820 --> 00:41:43.820
background chatter. That is unexplained. They

00:41:43.820 --> 00:41:46.599
don't know where it came from. Huh. Some people

00:41:46.599 --> 00:41:48.920
say paranormal. Some people say, no, there was

00:41:48.920 --> 00:41:50.860
something going on that they didn't catch. Yeah.

00:41:51.019 --> 00:41:55.260
So. There is an Elton John album that I have.

00:41:55.980 --> 00:41:58.079
Well, my sister bought it and I have a copy of

00:41:58.079 --> 00:42:02.940
it. And I think what I'm hearing somewhere along

00:42:02.940 --> 00:42:06.219
there is tape bleed through before they put it

00:42:06.219 --> 00:42:08.460
onto the album. As a matter of fact, there is.

00:42:08.559 --> 00:42:11.719
Yeah. Because there's a song called Dan Dare,

00:42:11.920 --> 00:42:15.500
which is about like a comic book hero. And then

00:42:15.500 --> 00:42:19.320
towards the end, the instruments fade away and

00:42:19.320 --> 00:42:23.000
you're getting the backing vocals saying, let

00:42:23.000 --> 00:42:26.079
me see, the line is, Dan Dare doesn't know it,

00:42:26.099 --> 00:42:27.940
no he doesn't know it, no he doesn't know it,

00:42:27.960 --> 00:42:30.420
no he doesn't know it. And then there's a pause.

00:42:31.159 --> 00:42:35.119
And after a while you hear Elton go, hee! And

00:42:35.119 --> 00:42:37.739
then they do it again. But before you hear Elton

00:42:37.739 --> 00:42:40.820
go, hee! you hear faint in the background that

00:42:40.820 --> 00:42:44.320
exact same sound before. Not as an echo, but

00:42:44.320 --> 00:42:47.579
before. And that comes from tape bleed through.

00:42:47.719 --> 00:42:51.440
You record the thing on tape, and then the tape

00:42:51.440 --> 00:42:54.940
winds up in a big spool, and the magnetic particles

00:42:54.940 --> 00:42:57.760
that recorded him going, bleed through to another

00:42:57.760 --> 00:42:59.699
section of the tape that it's up against, and

00:42:59.699 --> 00:43:01.980
it puts a faint impression there, like a footprint.

00:43:02.699 --> 00:43:05.800
Like a real faint footprint. So some of the things

00:43:05.800 --> 00:43:11.269
we're hearing are tape. tape echoes that got

00:43:11.269 --> 00:43:13.809
imprinted from tape being wound too tightly and

00:43:13.809 --> 00:43:17.929
staying that way too long. But a lot of them

00:43:17.929 --> 00:43:21.429
are put there intentionally too. Yes, a lot of

00:43:21.429 --> 00:43:32.690
them. Okay, never mind. There are subtle background

00:43:32.690 --> 00:43:35.050
noises and creaks during the quiet recording.

00:43:35.610 --> 00:43:38.389
Producer Butch Vig mentioned some ambient sounds

00:43:38.389 --> 00:43:41.369
couldn't be identified, but were left because

00:43:41.369 --> 00:43:47.690
they added realism. Yeah. On the Beatles song,

00:43:47.750 --> 00:43:50.150
A Day in the Life, it ends with that long piano

00:43:50.150 --> 00:43:53.369
chord that's held and sustained for an incredible

00:43:53.369 --> 00:43:56.070
long time. And what they did is they just kept

00:43:56.070 --> 00:43:58.690
turning up the gain on the microphones. As the

00:43:58.690 --> 00:44:00.409
sound would fade, they'd just keep turning up

00:44:00.409 --> 00:44:02.610
the gain more and more to capture that long...

00:44:04.150 --> 00:44:06.690
Eventually the gain is up so high you can hear

00:44:06.690 --> 00:44:09.190
the room air conditioners in the studio. Oh,

00:44:09.190 --> 00:44:16.349
wow. I like that. I do too. The downward spiral

00:44:16.349 --> 00:44:18.630
was recorded in the house where the tape murders

00:44:18.630 --> 00:44:21.429
occurred. I didn't know that. I didn't know that

00:44:21.429 --> 00:44:24.449
either. I've always been a Nine Inch Nails fan

00:44:24.449 --> 00:44:29.170
until he got fat and happy. But I never knew

00:44:29.170 --> 00:44:33.670
that. I knew the house. was rehabbed and resold

00:44:33.670 --> 00:44:36.530
and has just become another residence. And especially

00:44:36.530 --> 00:44:39.449
when Manson and his followers were arrested and

00:44:39.449 --> 00:44:41.650
were off to jail, people started feeling safe

00:44:41.650 --> 00:44:43.610
about that house again because they figured some

00:44:43.610 --> 00:44:47.590
idiot's going to show up. Because that was Roman

00:44:47.590 --> 00:44:50.769
Polanski, didn't he? owned it at the time, but

00:44:50.769 --> 00:44:52.690
it was the record producer, I can't remember.

00:44:52.730 --> 00:44:55.110
It was Terry Melcher. Terry Melcher, yeah. Which

00:44:55.110 --> 00:44:57.809
was, I believe, Doris Day's son. Yes. Who was

00:44:57.809 --> 00:44:59.750
a record producer. He worked with the Beach Boys,

00:45:00.010 --> 00:45:02.809
he worked with some other people, and Marilyn

00:45:02.809 --> 00:45:07.289
Manson. Charles Manson wanted a career in music,

00:45:07.329 --> 00:45:10.429
and Terry Melcher said, you know, fine, I'll

00:45:10.429 --> 00:45:12.570
give you some demo recordings, because basically

00:45:12.570 --> 00:45:15.440
he wanted access to all of Manson's girls. Yeah.

00:45:15.559 --> 00:45:18.000
And so Manson got a lot of favors done for him

00:45:18.000 --> 00:45:20.579
because he was controlling access to his harem.

00:45:20.699 --> 00:45:24.619
Yeah. And then when the Beach Boys and Terry

00:45:24.619 --> 00:45:26.980
Melcher told Manson they didn't have any talent

00:45:26.980 --> 00:45:28.500
and they weren't going to pursue it, he got really

00:45:28.500 --> 00:45:34.039
pissed off and he sent his goons there. because

00:45:34.039 --> 00:45:36.239
it was Terry Melcher's house. And I think he

00:45:36.239 --> 00:45:38.219
knew Terry wasn't there, but he still wanted

00:45:38.219 --> 00:45:40.539
to kill whoever was there. Yeah, he had so much

00:45:40.539 --> 00:45:44.699
hatred and anger in him. And some of the stuff

00:45:44.699 --> 00:45:46.639
that they did with the unborn baby and stuff

00:45:46.639 --> 00:45:50.159
is just, they should all have been put to death

00:45:50.159 --> 00:45:54.059
for doing that. Pretty much, yeah. All right,

00:45:54.179 --> 00:45:59.500
okay. Likely electrical issues, but the setting

00:45:59.500 --> 00:46:03.280
fuels. the mythology because it was in the Tate

00:46:03.280 --> 00:46:07.519
murder house especially if they recorded it around

00:46:07.519 --> 00:46:10.340
the same I think that was around my birthday

00:46:10.340 --> 00:46:16.280
actually in 1969 it was in August okay so it

00:46:16.280 --> 00:46:18.340
was yeah I think it was right around my birthday

00:46:18.340 --> 00:46:24.460
for some weird reason wow okay okay computer

00:46:25.119 --> 00:46:26.920
Climbing the Walls is the name of the album.

00:46:27.280 --> 00:46:30.380
Contains distorted ambient layers and what sounds

00:46:30.380 --> 00:46:33.280
like distant screams and whispers. Yeah, that's

00:46:33.280 --> 00:46:35.579
Radiohead. They put weird stuff on their albums

00:46:35.579 --> 00:46:40.519
for sure. Some came from manipulated recordings,

00:46:40.739 --> 00:46:43.159
but even band members said certain textures emerged

00:46:43.159 --> 00:46:47.760
unpredictably from processing. Yeah. Yep. And

00:46:47.760 --> 00:46:49.820
like you said, Radiohead was famous for doing

00:46:49.820 --> 00:46:53.010
that. They don't even like the song Creep. They

00:46:53.010 --> 00:46:55.210
hated that song. Yeah, the guitar player tried

00:46:55.210 --> 00:46:58.809
to sabotage it by doing those chunky cut -off

00:46:58.809 --> 00:47:00.809
chords right before the chorus. Yeah. Because

00:47:00.809 --> 00:47:02.289
he was trying to wreck the recording because

00:47:02.289 --> 00:47:04.369
he hated the song. But people loved it because

00:47:04.369 --> 00:47:06.989
that's when the indie music and the alt scene

00:47:06.989 --> 00:47:09.050
was huge. And they're like, oh, look at this.

00:47:09.130 --> 00:47:11.670
Listen to this. And it was a crossover hit. I

00:47:11.670 --> 00:47:14.369
mean, country stations were playing it. Yeah.

00:47:14.909 --> 00:47:17.309
It was something else. It was amazing. Yeah,

00:47:17.329 --> 00:47:19.869
it was. And especially for a band like Radiohead

00:47:19.869 --> 00:47:23.190
that really weren't that big of a following.

00:47:23.349 --> 00:47:26.050
And they really didn't seem to want to be famous

00:47:26.050 --> 00:47:28.590
or successful. They just wanted to plod along,

00:47:28.690 --> 00:47:30.510
have a career, and go away. And that was it,

00:47:30.550 --> 00:47:33.230
yeah. Kind of like what Nirvana wanted. Yeah,

00:47:33.230 --> 00:47:36.730
but Nirvana got anything but that. Yeah. You're

00:47:36.730 --> 00:47:39.110
going to be a star, damn it! The rest of us want

00:47:39.110 --> 00:47:40.929
to make money off you, so you're doing it. You're

00:47:40.929 --> 00:47:43.789
doing it, yeah. And the fact that Geffen signed

00:47:43.789 --> 00:47:48.929
him really helped a lot. But the thing is, it

00:47:48.929 --> 00:47:50.849
would have been argued, the minute they sold

00:47:50.849 --> 00:47:52.909
to Geffen, they said, is when they sold out.

00:47:53.150 --> 00:47:56.050
And I do agree with that because Geffen was that

00:47:56.050 --> 00:48:00.289
type of a... David Geffen had a... He was pop.

00:48:00.670 --> 00:48:05.230
Pop -culturally fit, if you will, or pop -culturally

00:48:05.230 --> 00:48:07.980
savvy. And he knew how to... bust through and

00:48:07.980 --> 00:48:11.920
get these albums. So when they made the record

00:48:11.920 --> 00:48:15.480
deal with David Geffen, that automatically put

00:48:15.480 --> 00:48:19.039
them in front of everybody else. I remember when

00:48:19.039 --> 00:48:23.039
I had a mail route in the Rosedale area, there

00:48:23.039 --> 00:48:25.340
was a band that all lived together in one house.

00:48:26.519 --> 00:48:28.599
I can't remember the name of the band. They were

00:48:28.599 --> 00:48:30.239
a local band. I went out to see them one time,

00:48:30.260 --> 00:48:35.119
and they were pretty good. And I remember one

00:48:35.119 --> 00:48:38.170
day showing up. to deliver and most of them were

00:48:38.170 --> 00:48:41.349
out on the front lawn celebrating and the drummer's

00:48:41.349 --> 00:48:42.809
the guy who owned the house and he said yeah

00:48:42.809 --> 00:48:45.349
we just got signed by Geffen man we're all pretty

00:48:45.349 --> 00:48:47.329
freaking happy and he said I just ordered a bunch

00:48:47.329 --> 00:48:50.909
of drumsticks with my name on them and then like

00:48:50.909 --> 00:48:54.590
a couple months later he came out to get the

00:48:54.590 --> 00:48:56.570
mail and he looked like he just lost his best

00:48:56.570 --> 00:49:01.070
friend and he said that stupid blank blank blank

00:49:02.039 --> 00:49:04.539
What he said is that stupid, dumbass, gay boy

00:49:04.539 --> 00:49:07.500
Geffen, he's decided to get out of the rock and

00:49:07.500 --> 00:49:09.960
roll business and concentrate on movies. So we

00:49:09.960 --> 00:49:16.360
got dropped. Wow. And he was so royally pissed.

00:49:18.000 --> 00:49:20.159
Because he's like, Geffen, man, look what Geffen

00:49:20.159 --> 00:49:21.900
has done with all these other artists. And he's

00:49:21.900 --> 00:49:24.480
like, he got bored with music and went on to

00:49:24.480 --> 00:49:27.139
film. Yeah, damn it. Well, there goes our plans.

00:49:29.449 --> 00:49:33.510
But it was odd and funny that he had to make

00:49:33.510 --> 00:49:36.570
sure to mention David Geffen's sexual preference

00:49:36.570 --> 00:49:40.590
as part of the reason why. Interesting enough,

00:49:40.969 --> 00:49:47.010
that is Carly Simon. The song You're So Vain

00:49:47.010 --> 00:49:50.230
was about David Geffen before he turned gay or

00:49:50.230 --> 00:49:53.030
was bisexual. Whatever the deal was. Carly said

00:49:53.030 --> 00:49:55.579
that... Different verses of the song are about

00:49:55.579 --> 00:49:57.519
different people, so it's not all one person.

00:49:57.579 --> 00:49:59.119
He said there's definitely one verse in there

00:49:59.119 --> 00:50:02.519
that's all about Warren Beatty. She whispers

00:50:02.519 --> 00:50:05.820
David Geffen on the song. I'll have to listen

00:50:05.820 --> 00:50:09.199
to that. Yeah. But she had to point that out.

00:50:09.380 --> 00:50:12.440
Nobody heard it before. Remember when she re

00:50:12.440 --> 00:50:14.400
-released it and said it was about everybody?

00:50:14.980 --> 00:50:18.300
Yeah. His is the only name in it. That's true.

00:50:19.039 --> 00:50:21.219
Yeah. And there's also one verse that's about

00:50:21.219 --> 00:50:22.980
Mick Jagger, and she got him to come and sing

00:50:22.980 --> 00:50:24.980
backing vocals on it. Yes, I know. Which is pretty

00:50:24.980 --> 00:50:29.099
awesome. He was like, sure. Mick Jagger knew

00:50:29.099 --> 00:50:32.179
he was a dick. He knew it. Hey, my fellow heavy

00:50:32.179 --> 00:50:36.300
breeders, this is Dash Riptide, your music news.

00:50:38.300 --> 00:50:42.460
According to TMZ, Puddle of Mud frontman, Wes

00:50:42.460 --> 00:50:45.760
Scandling, will not be serving any jail time.

00:50:46.139 --> 00:50:48.559
in relation to the domestic violence and drug

00:50:48.559 --> 00:50:53.019
possession charges. In obtained documents, it's

00:50:53.019 --> 00:50:56.199
revealed that the singer will instead enter a

00:50:56.199 --> 00:50:59.280
one -year diversion program and been ordered

00:50:59.280 --> 00:51:03.699
to enter a drug rehab program. The judge accepted

00:51:03.699 --> 00:51:06.940
a plea deal with Scantling, taking the steps

00:51:06.940 --> 00:51:11.900
as laid out by the court. May 29th, he reports

00:51:11.900 --> 00:51:15.659
on his progress to the court system. This is

00:51:15.659 --> 00:51:19.340
Gash Riptine, and that was your music news. If

00:51:19.340 --> 00:51:21.519
it's too loud, you probably have ear damage,

00:51:21.639 --> 00:51:46.579
just like me. John Phillips' daughter? Yeah.

00:51:47.300 --> 00:51:48.920
Supposedly he had his way with her when she was

00:51:48.920 --> 00:51:51.400
13. John Phillips said, here, locked her in a

00:51:51.400 --> 00:51:54.599
room with him. Yeah. So, I don't know. Ryan O

00:51:54.599 --> 00:51:57.300
'Neill, the actor? Yeah. Did a movie called Paper

00:51:57.300 --> 00:51:59.820
Moon with his, what, 12, 13 -year -old daughter

00:51:59.820 --> 00:52:01.380
Tatum? Wasn't that one of the people that he

00:52:01.380 --> 00:52:05.059
was, was the song You're So Vain About? Wasn't

00:52:05.059 --> 00:52:07.019
that? Ryan O 'Neill? I don't know. Oh, no, it

00:52:07.019 --> 00:52:09.659
wasn't Ryan O 'Neill. No. I'm thinking of Warren

00:52:09.659 --> 00:52:11.980
Beatty. Yeah. Anyhow, go ahead. I'm sorry. But...

00:52:13.319 --> 00:52:17.000
Tatum O 'Neill, in her autobiography, said that

00:52:17.000 --> 00:52:19.340
on the set of that movie, her dad offered her

00:52:19.340 --> 00:52:22.219
to Marlon Brando. He said, here, you want to

00:52:22.219 --> 00:52:23.900
fuck my daughter? Just take her. Oh my gosh.

00:52:24.960 --> 00:52:28.039
That's the kind of asshole he was. Marlon Brando?

00:52:28.340 --> 00:52:30.900
No, Ryan O 'Neill for pimping out his own daughter.

00:52:31.139 --> 00:52:34.679
No, offered to Marlon Brando. And Marlon Brando

00:52:34.679 --> 00:52:38.320
said, no, I'd rather have Richard Pryor. Allegedly.

00:52:42.920 --> 00:52:47.500
Sorry, I had to get that quip in. All right.

00:52:49.260 --> 00:52:52.820
Physical graffiti in my time of dying. Oh, yeah.

00:52:52.980 --> 00:52:54.940
At the very end, I think everyone knows this,

00:52:54.960 --> 00:52:58.679
you hear a strange cough and a voice. Robert

00:52:58.679 --> 00:53:00.719
Plant joked about being someone who shouldn't

00:53:00.719 --> 00:53:02.460
have been there, though it was likely a studio

00:53:02.460 --> 00:53:06.079
moment accidentally kept. Yeah. And I agree with

00:53:06.079 --> 00:53:08.159
that. You keep stuff like that for flavor. Yeah.

00:53:08.219 --> 00:53:10.739
You know, it's kind of like a watermark. It's

00:53:10.739 --> 00:53:12.139
like, yeah, that's it right there. Yeah, you

00:53:12.139 --> 00:53:16.340
hear that cough? It's like Lynyrd Skynyrd's Sweet

00:53:16.340 --> 00:53:19.800
Home Alabama. Just a few seconds after the song

00:53:19.800 --> 00:53:22.860
starts, you hear Ronnie Van Zandt saying, turn

00:53:22.860 --> 00:53:25.820
it up. Yeah, and they kept it open. He was telling

00:53:25.820 --> 00:53:28.659
the studio engineer to turn his headphones up

00:53:28.659 --> 00:53:31.039
because he could barely hear it. But the timing

00:53:31.039 --> 00:53:33.480
of him saying it was just perfect. And they kept

00:53:33.480 --> 00:53:35.260
it. Yeah, let's just leave this in the song.

00:53:35.320 --> 00:53:37.340
It sounds like he's telling the audience to turn

00:53:37.340 --> 00:53:40.030
it up. So it was just one of those perfect moments.

00:53:40.030 --> 00:53:43.030
I wonder if he did that in concert, too. He probably

00:53:43.030 --> 00:53:44.630
had to start doing that. I bet you he did. He

00:53:44.630 --> 00:53:46.010
probably started saying, turn it up, and the

00:53:46.010 --> 00:53:48.469
crowd would scream. Yeah, there it is. Yeah.

00:53:49.110 --> 00:53:51.710
I mean, why wouldn't you use that? Yeah. It's

00:53:51.710 --> 00:53:52.949
a gift from the gods. And it's perfect the way

00:53:52.949 --> 00:53:54.949
he says it, too. It's just like, turn it up.

00:53:55.010 --> 00:53:57.670
Yep. Good old Southern boy, turn it up. Turn

00:53:57.670 --> 00:54:00.250
it up. You do what I say, son. Get me them grits.

00:54:00.250 --> 00:54:03.949
That'll be okay. Yeah. Where's my cream of wheat?

00:54:06.559 --> 00:54:08.940
It's just like Buford T. Rasputin, the common

00:54:08.940 --> 00:54:11.000
sense concierge. Oh, yeah. He tells everybody

00:54:11.000 --> 00:54:14.960
to leave so mama can make some pancakes. Now,

00:54:15.019 --> 00:54:18.099
hello. Good, how you doing? I'm good. Good, you

00:54:18.099 --> 00:54:20.699
got anything you want to say? Sure, I love this.

00:54:21.099 --> 00:54:24.119
Isn't it great? Yes, it's so neat. And you know

00:54:24.119 --> 00:54:27.119
what? It would be even neater. If they made a

00:54:27.119 --> 00:54:29.400
trail down here, like on the other side, so you

00:54:29.400 --> 00:54:31.519
could go down and walk through. Oh, that would

00:54:31.519 --> 00:54:33.400
be nice. Yeah, that would be nice. Yeah. I wish

00:54:33.400 --> 00:54:35.579
you could see all of downtown, but Cooper Arena

00:54:35.579 --> 00:54:38.940
just sucks. Yeah. Yeah. The view. Yeah, that

00:54:38.940 --> 00:54:41.699
and the warehouse over there kind of, eh. Yeah.

00:54:42.219 --> 00:54:45.059
But I love this. I do, too. Isn't this beautiful?

00:54:45.340 --> 00:54:48.340
It is. So glad it's finally open. Yeah. We needed

00:54:48.340 --> 00:54:51.659
this. Now we can walk to Kansas. Yeah. To Missouri.

00:54:52.079 --> 00:54:55.170
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah, it doesn't seem like separate

00:54:55.170 --> 00:54:58.989
countries now, does it? I know. It's lovely.

00:54:59.210 --> 00:55:01.929
I love this. Great idea, great idea. Cool. It's

00:55:01.929 --> 00:55:04.590
going to be great this summer. I hope it's just

00:55:04.590 --> 00:55:08.010
like a live. They should have live bands. I hope

00:55:08.010 --> 00:55:10.449
they do. I hope so. They said they were going

00:55:10.449 --> 00:55:12.849
to have music at one venue here, but maybe they

00:55:12.849 --> 00:55:15.360
were talking about the... American Royal Hall

00:55:15.360 --> 00:55:18.340
that you can rent out for bands. I signed up

00:55:18.340 --> 00:55:20.579
for the cocktail thing, so I can't wait on that.

00:55:20.880 --> 00:55:23.039
Oh, yeah, yeah, the cocktail party. Yeah, there's

00:55:23.039 --> 00:55:25.539
a cocktail festival they're having. Yeah. Yeah,

00:55:25.639 --> 00:55:28.079
I signed up for that. Oh, I did too. Did you

00:55:28.079 --> 00:55:30.800
see the drinks on that list? I didn't because

00:55:30.800 --> 00:55:33.360
it said that something was sold out, but they're

00:55:33.360 --> 00:55:35.760
offering something. VIP package. I don't know

00:55:35.760 --> 00:55:38.280
if it's $125 or if it's $15 because it gave me

00:55:38.280 --> 00:55:40.420
two different prices. Oh, I didn't even see that.

00:55:40.579 --> 00:55:43.119
Yeah, I got an email yesterday. Oh, I have to

00:55:43.119 --> 00:55:45.460
look through my emails. Oh, yeah, yeah. Double

00:55:45.460 --> 00:55:47.500
check because it was saying that the tickets

00:55:47.500 --> 00:55:49.719
were sold out already because I signed up months

00:55:49.719 --> 00:55:52.539
before they opened. Okay. I thought I would get

00:55:52.539 --> 00:55:54.079
first -handed tickets, but I guess other people

00:55:54.079 --> 00:55:58.360
signed up ahead of me. Okay. All right. I guess

00:55:58.360 --> 00:56:02.400
I didn't get tickets either then. Well, they're

00:56:02.400 --> 00:56:04.579
going to have yoga. You can do yoga on the bridge.

00:56:04.719 --> 00:56:08.260
Oh, yeah, that was my first thing. I'm out here

00:56:08.260 --> 00:56:10.559
doing downward dog. Yeah, yeah, I can't wait.

00:56:10.639 --> 00:56:12.519
Grasping the bird's tail. And something about

00:56:12.519 --> 00:56:15.119
cycling I heard them say. Oh, really? On the

00:56:15.119 --> 00:56:17.360
bottom level, I guess. Maybe underneath here,

00:56:17.420 --> 00:56:19.719
I'm thinking. Yeah, they were saying something

00:56:19.719 --> 00:56:21.789
about bring your bikes. Cool. I'll check that

00:56:21.789 --> 00:56:23.070
out. I guess once they connect it all the way

00:56:23.070 --> 00:56:25.050
through. Yeah. This is a trailhead, so there

00:56:25.050 --> 00:56:27.289
are trails that lead off from here. Oh, okay.

00:56:27.329 --> 00:56:29.110
I don't know if on both sides or not. I haven't

00:56:29.110 --> 00:56:30.769
looked around yet. Yeah, they said that on the

00:56:30.769 --> 00:56:32.769
news this morning. Something about cycling. I

00:56:32.769 --> 00:56:34.349
heard that with the bicycle. And that will be

00:56:34.349 --> 00:56:35.929
underneath will be the bike route? That's what

00:56:35.929 --> 00:56:38.289
I assume. I'm not sure. I wouldn't think you

00:56:38.289 --> 00:56:39.889
could do it on this level because there's too

00:56:39.889 --> 00:56:41.869
much to run into. And there's nothing up there,

00:56:41.949 --> 00:56:43.809
so I guess it would have to be under there. Yeah.

00:56:44.090 --> 00:56:47.889
That would be neat. Yeah. Yeah. Good talking

00:56:47.889 --> 00:56:49.690
to you guys. Got to get back to work. Oh, okay.

00:56:49.909 --> 00:56:51.110
Thanks for stopping by. Nice talking to you.

00:56:51.150 --> 00:56:53.690
What's your name? Nicole. Nicole. I'm Mark. I'm

00:56:53.690 --> 00:56:56.230
Topher. Hi, how are you? You were just on the

00:56:56.230 --> 00:56:58.489
very first podcast to ever be done from this

00:56:58.489 --> 00:57:02.650
bridge. Oh, yay. History. Absolutely. Thank you

00:57:02.650 --> 00:57:04.190
so much for being a part of it. Yes, thanks.

00:57:04.190 --> 00:57:05.769
We appreciate it. You guys enjoy your day. All

00:57:05.769 --> 00:57:07.070
right, we'll see you around here. All righty.

00:57:08.360 --> 00:57:10.860
This was such a good idea to build this, wasn't

00:57:10.860 --> 00:57:12.960
it? And to come down here and do our podcast.

00:57:13.199 --> 00:57:15.280
But to build this, it was such a good idea. Already,

00:57:15.320 --> 00:57:17.380
we already met interesting people, everything.

00:57:17.659 --> 00:57:21.480
This is great. I love it. I do too. Spirit of

00:57:21.480 --> 00:57:24.039
Eden recorded in near darkness with long ambient

00:57:24.039 --> 00:57:26.840
takes. The band captured room noises, breathing,

00:57:26.920 --> 00:57:29.539
and subtle sounds. They didn't always intentionally

00:57:29.539 --> 00:57:35.639
create a fully identity on it. And anyhow, that's

00:57:35.639 --> 00:57:37.980
pretty much all of it there because the other

00:57:37.980 --> 00:57:42.320
page ran away. I couldn't catch it. That's a

00:57:42.320 --> 00:57:43.860
shame. Actually, it's probably in the Kansas

00:57:43.860 --> 00:57:48.780
River. Anyhow, that's it. Well, let's see. I'll

00:57:48.780 --> 00:57:50.820
give you a choice. We can talk about the Wu -Tang

00:57:50.820 --> 00:57:57.059
Clan's concert, which has some controversy. We

00:57:57.059 --> 00:58:02.130
can talk about James Blake being asked. to be

00:58:02.130 --> 00:58:05.849
taken off Kanye West's recent album. Oh, okay.

00:58:06.190 --> 00:58:09.090
And then I've got a list of bad albums with one

00:58:09.090 --> 00:58:12.969
good song. Oh, I love that. Do the bad albums

00:58:12.969 --> 00:58:14.469
with one good song. I figured that would be next.

00:58:14.670 --> 00:58:17.510
Yeah. And I have some bullet points if we get

00:58:17.510 --> 00:58:21.469
to them. Okay. All right, bad albums, one good

00:58:21.469 --> 00:58:24.989
song. Hey, look, we're being filmed. All right,

00:58:25.070 --> 00:58:28.820
awesome. For real. The first one we have is John

00:58:28.820 --> 00:58:31.260
Lennon, his album Sometime in New York City.

00:58:31.500 --> 00:58:34.639
And the song is called New York City, which is

00:58:34.639 --> 00:58:38.239
a decent song, good, well -written. It is well

00:58:38.239 --> 00:58:40.480
-written. It's a good song. It's not his best,

00:58:40.559 --> 00:58:44.599
but I'd listen to it if it's playing. But apparently

00:58:44.599 --> 00:58:47.599
the rest of the album, music took a backseat

00:58:47.599 --> 00:58:50.460
to political posturing. Getting his political

00:58:50.460 --> 00:58:53.099
message across was the main thing, and the music

00:58:53.099 --> 00:58:56.639
was just kind of half -ass crap. Yeah. And the

00:58:56.639 --> 00:58:58.900
whole album stunk except for the one song. You

00:58:58.900 --> 00:59:01.219
know, and that's probably the only song I know

00:59:01.219 --> 00:59:04.300
for that whole album, so I would say, yeah. Up

00:59:04.300 --> 00:59:08.820
next, Van Halen 3, and the song Fire in the Hole

00:59:08.820 --> 00:59:11.719
is the only one. It's the diamond in the turd.

00:59:11.719 --> 00:59:15.039
It is. As it's often described. The cool thing

00:59:15.039 --> 00:59:17.679
is, is I want anyone that knows this album is

00:59:17.679 --> 00:59:20.079
with Gary Cherone. Yeah. It's the only album

00:59:20.079 --> 00:59:22.780
with Gary Cherone. He replaced Sammy Hagar. Sammy

00:59:22.780 --> 00:59:27.260
Hagar replaced David Lee Roth. He sounds identical

00:59:27.260 --> 00:59:29.780
to Sammy Hagar on that album, although naturally

00:59:29.780 --> 00:59:32.599
he does not. Yeah, that's the weird thing. It's

00:59:32.599 --> 00:59:35.199
almost as if, I don't know if he felt he needed

00:59:35.199 --> 00:59:37.300
to get that sound or somebody told him to. I

00:59:37.300 --> 00:59:39.179
don't know what it was, but I know that Eddie

00:59:39.179 --> 00:59:41.699
Van Halen went nuts on that whole album. Yeah.

00:59:41.760 --> 00:59:44.599
Because he spent way too much money, and he was

00:59:44.599 --> 00:59:47.820
never happy with it. He was always dicking with

00:59:47.820 --> 00:59:50.460
it and messing with it, and they say he ruined

00:59:50.460 --> 00:59:53.400
the album. Yeah, at that point. And he should

00:59:53.400 --> 00:59:54.739
have been handing over... Oh, Channel 9's right

00:59:54.739 --> 00:59:56.679
behind us. Nice. He should have been handing

00:59:56.679 --> 00:59:59.940
over final production of the album to somebody

00:59:59.940 --> 01:00:02.880
else. Somebody he couldn't overrule. Yeah. That

01:00:02.880 --> 01:00:07.039
would have been a better album. Okay, up next,

01:00:07.119 --> 01:00:10.400
David Bowie. The album Tonight. The only good

01:00:10.400 --> 01:00:13.300
song on it is Blue Jean. Which is still a staple,

01:00:13.400 --> 01:00:15.679
which he still does in concert. You know, it's

01:00:15.679 --> 01:00:20.219
okay. It's not like... It's not my favorite song

01:00:20.219 --> 01:00:23.519
by any stretch. But I wouldn't necessarily turn

01:00:23.519 --> 01:00:26.639
it off either. Yeah. It's not Gene Genie. That's

01:00:26.639 --> 01:00:28.380
a different song. No, no. This is Blue Gene.

01:00:28.460 --> 01:00:30.480
Blue Gene. Blue Gene Girl. A little more somber.

01:00:31.119 --> 01:00:33.659
Yeah, quite a bit more somber. Yeah. But the

01:00:33.659 --> 01:00:35.840
rest of the album is described as directionless

01:00:35.840 --> 01:00:40.059
and lacking in ideas. I agree. Yeah. He was doing

01:00:40.059 --> 01:00:43.280
a lot of drugs then, too, so. He was doing a

01:00:43.280 --> 01:00:45.579
lot of experimenting. A lot of experimenting

01:00:45.579 --> 01:00:48.880
then. Yeah. Yeah. Up next, Queen's Clearwater

01:00:48.880 --> 01:00:52.480
Revival, the album Mardi Gras. Or CCR. CCR. To

01:00:52.480 --> 01:00:55.579
the cool kids. Yes. The song Someday Never Comes

01:00:55.579 --> 01:00:59.159
was the only good one on the album. The rest

01:00:59.159 --> 01:01:03.099
of the album, it was the band members were hassling

01:01:03.099 --> 01:01:05.639
them, wanting to write songs that would make

01:01:05.639 --> 01:01:07.739
the album, because they wanted publishing credits.

01:01:08.059 --> 01:01:10.260
They didn't realize that their manager was taking

01:01:10.260 --> 01:01:11.639
it all anyway, so it didn't make any difference.

01:01:11.639 --> 01:01:15.079
Yeah, they didn't. But on this album, Forwardy

01:01:15.079 --> 01:01:17.480
gave in and said, you know what, go ahead. And

01:01:17.480 --> 01:01:19.440
he knew the album was going to suck, and he just

01:01:19.440 --> 01:01:22.159
kind of didn't care at that point. The end of

01:01:22.159 --> 01:01:24.239
it didn't work, and the band broke up directly

01:01:24.239 --> 01:01:26.619
afterwards, which is what Fogarty figured was

01:01:26.619 --> 01:01:30.880
going to happen anyway. But, yeah, it was like

01:01:30.880 --> 01:01:34.400
The Doors' last album after Morrison died. It

01:01:34.400 --> 01:01:37.880
was just a shit show. Yeah, yeah. But Fogarty

01:01:37.880 --> 01:01:39.599
knew it was going to be crap, because, like,

01:01:39.599 --> 01:01:41.320
well, these guys aren't going to be happy unless

01:01:41.320 --> 01:01:42.260
I let them write songs. He already signed a solo

01:01:42.260 --> 01:01:45.619
deal, didn't he? No, he was planning to sit out.

01:01:46.460 --> 01:01:48.500
Until his contract expired. No, that was it.

01:01:48.559 --> 01:01:50.139
That's right. He was just going to send it out

01:01:50.139 --> 01:01:52.219
and then go out as John Fogerty, which he did.

01:01:52.380 --> 01:01:54.460
Yep. He had a really big album, Centerfield.

01:01:54.619 --> 01:01:57.659
Centerfield, yeah. But the weird thing is the

01:01:57.659 --> 01:02:00.059
first song on it, The Old Man Down the Road,

01:02:00.219 --> 01:02:04.360
is basically the same song as Run Through the

01:02:04.360 --> 01:02:07.019
Jungle. It really is. It's just slightly reworked.

01:02:07.469 --> 01:02:10.650
Yeah. So he ripped himself off completely. He

01:02:10.650 --> 01:02:14.409
did, yeah. But the thing is, since his John Fogerty

01:02:14.409 --> 01:02:18.429
is so distinctive, it didn't matter. Yeah. There's

01:02:18.429 --> 01:02:20.929
a pretty big tolerance for musicians ripping

01:02:20.929 --> 01:02:23.489
themselves off. It's like, you wrote this to

01:02:23.489 --> 01:02:26.150
begin with, so why not? Yeah, so go ahead. He

01:02:26.150 --> 01:02:28.610
was going to sue himself, but his lawyer advised

01:02:28.610 --> 01:02:32.929
against it. Yeah, yeah. You don't self -sue,

01:02:32.929 --> 01:02:37.460
master -suing. Here's one you'll probably know

01:02:37.460 --> 01:02:40.719
of, Judas Priest, the album Turbo. And the song

01:02:40.719 --> 01:02:42.860
Turbo Lover is about the only one you can listen

01:02:42.860 --> 01:02:46.619
to. The rest is like synth -heavy pop metal.

01:02:46.980 --> 01:02:51.199
Yeah, that's when glam was big. And what they

01:02:51.199 --> 01:02:53.719
tried to do, even their costumes, because they

01:02:53.719 --> 01:02:57.440
were made in Kansas City at Unique Fashions there

01:02:57.440 --> 01:03:00.329
in Westport. As a matter of fact, when you went

01:03:00.329 --> 01:03:02.110
into that store, a little bitty little store

01:03:02.110 --> 01:03:05.250
right next to Lone Star back in the 80s, and

01:03:05.250 --> 01:03:07.429
actually I think it went out about 87 or something,

01:03:07.530 --> 01:03:11.429
but Unique Fashions, he did all of their turbo.

01:03:11.829 --> 01:03:15.389
He did all of their colorful leather. Yeah. He

01:03:15.389 --> 01:03:19.730
did all of that. And anyhow, they were trying

01:03:19.730 --> 01:03:23.309
to, actually it was more the record company was

01:03:23.309 --> 01:03:25.510
wanting them to get more with the times. True.

01:03:26.009 --> 01:03:28.829
And the rest of the album is generally considered,

01:03:28.989 --> 01:03:31.949
the production's cheesy, there are way too many

01:03:31.949 --> 01:03:35.210
special effects, you know, gated drums and echoey

01:03:35.210 --> 01:03:39.590
this. Because this was not what they do. Yeah.

01:03:39.710 --> 01:03:45.610
But they did it because record companies are

01:03:45.610 --> 01:03:47.489
like, look, we've got to get you more modern,

01:03:47.570 --> 01:03:49.650
we've got to get you more in the times. Yeah.

01:03:52.840 --> 01:03:56.480
Interesting that I read that Rob Halford and

01:03:56.480 --> 01:03:59.199
Alice Cooper are teaming up for a second children's

01:03:59.199 --> 01:04:01.659
music album. Yes, I saw that. They put one out

01:04:01.659 --> 01:04:03.860
in 2024 that was apparently very successful.

01:04:04.139 --> 01:04:07.760
Yes, and they're really good people. Both of

01:04:07.760 --> 01:04:13.960
them are solid. And good friends. Here's one

01:04:13.960 --> 01:04:15.820
you'll also be familiar with. Black Sabbath,

01:04:16.079 --> 01:04:18.820
Never Say Die. Yeah, Never Say Die is it. That

01:04:18.820 --> 01:04:20.760
was the only song on the album. Johnny Blade

01:04:20.760 --> 01:04:23.539
is a great song. If anyone bothers to listen

01:04:23.539 --> 01:04:26.619
to it. But the only one you'd ever know is Never

01:04:26.619 --> 01:04:28.199
Say Die. And the biggest problem with that is

01:04:28.199 --> 01:04:31.920
it sounded happy. That's the biggest problem.

01:04:33.440 --> 01:04:38.079
Well, the description I found for this was the

01:04:38.079 --> 01:04:40.280
album sounded like they'd all been snorting too

01:04:40.280 --> 01:04:44.400
many ants. And they were. They were. And they

01:04:44.400 --> 01:04:46.659
also said this may actually be the most hated

01:04:46.659 --> 01:04:50.900
album in metal. Really? Yeah. See, I didn't mind

01:04:50.900 --> 01:04:53.599
it. I didn't mind it. I guess there's a lot of

01:04:53.599 --> 01:04:56.900
hate for it. There is. The album cover is badass.

01:04:57.559 --> 01:05:00.599
Yeah. In the gas mask. Jet fighter, apparently.

01:05:00.760 --> 01:05:04.519
Jet fighter, yeah. Up next, Iron Maiden in the

01:05:04.519 --> 01:05:07.579
album Virtual Eleven. And the song The Klansman.

01:05:07.679 --> 01:05:10.539
It was kind of inspired by Braveheart. Yeah.

01:05:10.539 --> 01:05:14.360
He said it's a decent. The rest of the album,

01:05:14.440 --> 01:05:18.119
the most common description is absolute turd.

01:05:19.039 --> 01:05:22.639
I think I would agree. Yes. I would totally agree

01:05:22.639 --> 01:05:27.119
with that. Yeah. Next one, no surprise, Metallica,

01:05:27.199 --> 01:05:30.219
St. Anger. Oh, gosh. And the song, The Unnamed

01:05:30.219 --> 01:05:32.559
Feeling, apparently was something you could actually

01:05:32.559 --> 01:05:34.780
listen to. Was that the name of the song that

01:05:34.780 --> 01:05:38.099
they tried to get to be a hit? I think so. Okay.

01:05:38.159 --> 01:05:40.619
I didn't know. Well, St. Anger, they tried that,

01:05:40.659 --> 01:05:43.300
too, and everyone's like, what? It was all cymbals.

01:05:43.599 --> 01:05:45.659
Yeah. I mean, it was just disgusting. It was

01:05:45.659 --> 01:05:48.159
like... Yeah, they said it was a ruined production.

01:05:48.380 --> 01:05:50.500
It was. The whole album is just, the production

01:05:50.500 --> 01:05:52.559
is so trashed and so ruined. It was horrible.

01:05:52.619 --> 01:05:55.519
The backbeat, it was nothing. It was a bunch

01:05:55.519 --> 01:05:57.840
of cymbals. And that horrible snare drum. Oh,

01:05:58.239 --> 01:06:01.559
the snare drum. Yeah, the snare drum is idiots.

01:06:01.559 --> 01:06:03.340
I was saying cymbals, but the snare drum was

01:06:03.340 --> 01:06:07.500
just as bad. Whang, whang. It's just the most

01:06:07.500 --> 01:06:10.639
god -awful sound. Someone need to pull Lars aside

01:06:10.639 --> 01:06:15.909
and go, dude, no, no. But they were... When Metallica

01:06:15.909 --> 01:06:19.269
put out the Black Album, which was monstrously

01:06:19.269 --> 01:06:21.750
successful, it basically broke them as human

01:06:21.750 --> 01:06:24.769
beings. It did. Because all the drugs were available.

01:06:25.010 --> 01:06:27.190
Nobody was going to tell them no for anything.

01:06:28.090 --> 01:06:31.809
Lars and James got enormous egos and felt like

01:06:31.809 --> 01:06:35.409
they were God on Earth. And St. Anger was kind

01:06:35.409 --> 01:06:38.530
of made during that time. They were trying for

01:06:38.530 --> 01:06:42.010
a modern sound. Yeah. But what they came up with

01:06:42.010 --> 01:06:44.530
was nothing like a modern sound. It's just they

01:06:44.530 --> 01:06:46.809
were so out of it. Well, the Black Album was

01:06:46.809 --> 01:06:50.110
actually like a very produced album anyhow. They

01:06:50.110 --> 01:06:52.110
wanted them to hit mainstream because this is

01:06:52.110 --> 01:06:54.389
Motley Crue Bon Jovi territory, kind of like

01:06:54.389 --> 01:06:55.949
what we're talking about Judas Priest. Yeah.

01:06:56.090 --> 01:06:58.469
They're kind of like, hey, you know, this thrash

01:06:58.469 --> 01:07:01.329
stuff is good and you did well, but we need you

01:07:01.329 --> 01:07:03.309
to make it a little bit more mainstream. We need

01:07:03.309 --> 01:07:06.010
some radio hits. Yes. And they got it. And the

01:07:06.010 --> 01:07:09.559
thing is... They really broke during Ozzy. Ozzy

01:07:09.559 --> 01:07:12.940
took them on the Ultimate Sin Tour, and I was

01:07:12.940 --> 01:07:15.300
there at Kemper Arena, actually right next door

01:07:15.300 --> 01:07:18.079
here. Oh, yeah, right over there. Yeah, so I

01:07:18.079 --> 01:07:20.340
was there. I saw Judas Priest right over there.

01:07:20.460 --> 01:07:22.320
Oh, and they had a great concert. I've seen them,

01:07:22.320 --> 01:07:25.980
too. I've seen them with Kiss. Back when they,

01:07:26.159 --> 01:07:29.639
before, I think they were out of makeup by then,

01:07:29.679 --> 01:07:32.340
it was the 80s. Well, anyhow. I think Blue Oyster

01:07:32.340 --> 01:07:34.239
Cult opened for Judas Priest when I saw them.

01:07:34.480 --> 01:07:37.639
I saw them. Blue Oyster Cult finally at the Ameristar.

01:07:37.639 --> 01:07:39.340
I got to take my brother there before he passed

01:07:39.340 --> 01:07:41.519
away. Oh, nice. He was always a big Blue Oyster

01:07:41.519 --> 01:07:44.059
Cult fan, but he was so pissed he went to Black

01:07:44.059 --> 01:07:45.940
and Blue concert, Black Sabbath, Blue Oyster

01:07:45.940 --> 01:07:47.639
Cult, and they're out of Black Sabbath shirts.

01:07:47.940 --> 01:07:50.039
So he had to get a Blue Oyster Cult. He was so

01:07:50.039 --> 01:07:54.679
mad. He was like, damn it, yeah. So anyhow. All

01:07:54.679 --> 01:07:57.579
right, the last one I have is Queen, the album

01:07:57.579 --> 01:08:01.300
Hot Space. Oh, yeah. And that would be body language,

01:08:01.380 --> 01:08:04.360
right? No, no, no. Under Pressure. Under Pressure,

01:08:04.460 --> 01:08:06.679
yeah. Which actually was released six months

01:08:06.679 --> 01:08:09.179
earlier. So it basically had nothing to do with

01:08:09.179 --> 01:08:10.699
the album. They just stuck it on there. They

01:08:10.699 --> 01:08:12.820
stuck it on the album because it was them and

01:08:12.820 --> 01:08:16.699
David Bowie. It was a collab. And I forgot how

01:08:16.699 --> 01:08:20.140
it became. It was an accident. Yeah, it just

01:08:20.140 --> 01:08:22.199
kind of fell together. Yeah, and they're just

01:08:22.199 --> 01:08:25.520
like, hey, it just works. Yeah. Yeah, so it wasn't

01:08:25.520 --> 01:08:27.880
even a part of that album. It was a part of them

01:08:27.880 --> 01:08:30.880
with David Bowie doing that song. And I forgot.

01:08:30.920 --> 01:08:33.409
It was an accident. how it actually originated.

01:08:33.729 --> 01:08:35.510
And then he put it on that album. But Hot Space,

01:08:35.609 --> 01:08:37.250
I think it was like Body Language or something,

01:08:37.390 --> 01:08:39.529
they tried to make a hit. And everyone was like,

01:08:39.649 --> 01:08:43.109
no. No, no, no, no. This is not my queen. Yeah,

01:08:43.189 --> 01:08:45.329
the album was a complete departure from the usual

01:08:45.329 --> 01:08:48.229
sound. It was basically light R &B, funk, and

01:08:48.229 --> 01:08:50.989
disco. And this was when disco was already on

01:08:50.989 --> 01:08:53.289
the way out. So nobody really wanted it. They

01:08:53.289 --> 01:08:55.890
used a lot of drum machines instead of the actual

01:08:55.890 --> 01:08:58.989
drummer. They really downplayed the guitar. Roger

01:08:58.989 --> 01:09:00.750
Taylor, why would you do that to him? I know.

01:09:01.920 --> 01:09:05.260
A lot of the songs were dance -oriented. There's

01:09:05.260 --> 01:09:07.220
basically nothing on the album for the rockers,

01:09:07.300 --> 01:09:10.460
which was a big part of Queen's audience. Okay,

01:09:10.539 --> 01:09:12.819
I'm going to check this out here now and see

01:09:12.819 --> 01:09:15.359
if I'm correct on this. Was Body Language the

01:09:15.359 --> 01:09:22.140
song on Hot Space, the album of Queen? Because

01:09:22.140 --> 01:09:26.920
I may be getting something mixed up. Yeah, yeah.

01:09:27.000 --> 01:09:31.750
Okay. And that is a 1982 album, Hot Space. And

01:09:31.750 --> 01:09:34.710
they tried, that was the one. And then, if I

01:09:34.710 --> 01:09:37.810
remember correctly, they brought back, under

01:09:37.810 --> 01:09:39.810
pressure, it was already on the radio, but then

01:09:39.810 --> 01:09:41.670
they brought it back to sell the album. That's

01:09:41.670 --> 01:09:43.689
true. I remember it did have almost like a re

01:09:43.689 --> 01:09:46.449
-release. Yeah, it did, yeah. And they decided

01:09:46.449 --> 01:09:48.470
that when I think they probably realized there

01:09:48.470 --> 01:09:50.310
was really nothing redeeming about that whole

01:09:50.310 --> 01:09:51.789
album. Yeah, that was the only thing that was

01:09:51.789 --> 01:09:54.689
going to sell the album. It was 1982. Disco was

01:09:54.689 --> 01:09:58.819
dead. gone and i think that was part of the problem

01:09:58.819 --> 01:10:02.899
about freddie mercury uh and uh versus brian

01:10:02.899 --> 01:10:06.899
may now they loved each other okay but musically

01:10:06.899 --> 01:10:10.100
they hated each other and that was one of the

01:10:10.100 --> 01:10:13.220
problems yeah so anyhow go ahead i'm sorry all

01:10:13.220 --> 01:10:16.119
right uh so that's the that's bad albums with

01:10:16.119 --> 01:10:18.479
one good song i have the a few of the flip side

01:10:18.479 --> 01:10:21.600
good albums with one bad song okay i like this

01:10:21.600 --> 01:10:24.300
is it good all right First one up, the Police

01:10:24.300 --> 01:10:28.399
Synchronicity album. Whole album was awesome,

01:10:28.479 --> 01:10:32.279
except for the song Mother. Oh, yeah. Utter piece

01:10:32.279 --> 01:10:34.100
of crap. It's a total mess. What was the one?

01:10:34.220 --> 01:10:37.180
The little black spot on the sun. King of Pain.

01:10:37.260 --> 01:10:39.239
King of Pain. That was off Synchronicity, wasn't

01:10:39.239 --> 01:10:40.779
it? I think so, yeah. Yeah, that was a great

01:10:40.779 --> 01:10:44.600
song. A great song. Synchronicity 2. Yeah. Many

01:10:44.600 --> 01:10:48.260
miles away, there's a shadow on the door. Anyway.

01:10:48.279 --> 01:10:49.800
That's a great song, too. That is a good song.

01:10:49.840 --> 01:10:52.000
And you know what? Radio has failed that song.

01:10:52.350 --> 01:10:54.989
You never hear it on there. Yeah. Such a good

01:10:54.989 --> 01:10:57.529
song. Anyhow. I have to play it myself. Yep.

01:10:57.869 --> 01:11:01.529
But the song sounded part bad garage band, part

01:11:01.529 --> 01:11:06.130
primal scream therapy. They were cringy. I don't

01:11:06.130 --> 01:11:07.930
know. It was Andy Summer, I think, doing the

01:11:07.930 --> 01:11:11.430
vocals. Yeah. And there's these cringy outbursts

01:11:11.430 --> 01:11:15.859
about his mommy. And every girl I date turns

01:11:15.859 --> 01:11:19.840
into my mom. It's just ugly and stupid. And his

01:11:19.840 --> 01:11:22.880
guitar. I mean, I love the guitar on that whole

01:11:22.880 --> 01:11:24.739
album, but man, that stuff kind of ruined it

01:11:24.739 --> 01:11:26.560
for me. Yeah, there's nothing melodic. There's

01:11:26.560 --> 01:11:29.539
no tune. There's no melody. It's just an incoherent

01:11:29.539 --> 01:11:34.180
mess. It's awful. Next up, we have Peter Gabriel

01:11:34.180 --> 01:11:36.880
and his album So. That's the one with Sledgehammer.

01:11:38.580 --> 01:11:40.779
There's a song late on the album called We Do

01:11:40.779 --> 01:11:45.239
What We're Told, Milgram 37. I'm unfamiliar.

01:11:45.800 --> 01:11:48.100
Yeah, and most people stop listening to it before

01:11:48.100 --> 01:11:52.060
it gets to that track. It's one of those. It's

01:11:52.060 --> 01:11:55.100
like, okay, take it off. It's slow, and it's

01:11:55.100 --> 01:11:57.779
plodding, and it drones, and it goes nowhere.

01:11:57.880 --> 01:11:59.899
It feels unfinished. The rest of the song is

01:11:59.899 --> 01:12:02.800
full of life and full of energy, and it has things

01:12:02.800 --> 01:12:05.720
to say and things to do. This one just sounds

01:12:05.720 --> 01:12:08.090
like... what you'd listen to in an elevator on

01:12:08.090 --> 01:12:09.989
your way up to the dentist's office. It's just

01:12:09.989 --> 01:12:16.869
awful. It's nuts. There was another song on that

01:12:16.869 --> 01:12:19.149
album where it's basically he took a friend's

01:12:19.149 --> 01:12:22.189
poem and put it to music. And it wasn't all that

01:12:22.189 --> 01:12:23.810
good either, but it was a hell of a lot better

01:12:23.810 --> 01:12:29.729
than this one. Bob Dylan, his album Blonde on

01:12:29.729 --> 01:12:33.210
Blonde. Double album, full of great songs, a

01:12:33.210 --> 01:12:36.109
very seminal... piece of work from bob dylan

01:12:36.109 --> 01:12:38.810
but he had the song rainy day women number 12

01:12:38.810 --> 01:12:41.850
and 35 which you from the title you wouldn't

01:12:41.850 --> 01:12:43.750
know what it was what it's like but it has that

01:12:43.750 --> 01:12:48.590
boozy sing -along chorus everybody must get stoned

01:12:48.590 --> 01:12:51.909
that's the song yeah which is ugly and stupid

01:12:51.909 --> 01:12:54.390
it didn't fit anywhere in the album didn't fit

01:12:54.390 --> 01:12:57.609
bob dylan KY, you'd hear that on there so much.

01:12:57.710 --> 01:13:00.449
Oh, God, that was awful. It was just ear torture.

01:13:00.710 --> 01:13:03.350
Oh, yeah. That was kind of like the 5 o 'clock

01:13:03.350 --> 01:13:05.550
going home song, one of those, where you're yabba

01:13:05.550 --> 01:13:07.649
-dabba -doo and working for the weekend. Yeah.

01:13:07.649 --> 01:13:09.670
And at the very end, you're like, everybody must

01:13:09.670 --> 01:13:12.829
get stoned. Yeah. It was popular with the party

01:13:12.829 --> 01:13:15.210
boys who were so stupid they could barely remember

01:13:15.210 --> 01:13:18.340
to breathe. Yeah. That's who liked that song.

01:13:18.560 --> 01:13:21.640
Yeah, you're a good thong. What's so good about

01:13:21.640 --> 01:13:23.359
it? Everybody must get thonged. It's so stoned

01:13:23.359 --> 01:13:26.439
in it. Everybody must get thonged too. Anyways.

01:13:27.600 --> 01:13:29.899
The Beatles, the White Album, the song Revolution

01:13:29.899 --> 01:13:33.359
9, which you talked about earlier. Total mess.

01:13:33.460 --> 01:13:35.979
Tons of hidden audio with cryptic messages. Number

01:13:35.979 --> 01:13:39.560
9? Yes. Overlaid with random noises, groaning,

01:13:39.600 --> 01:13:42.800
bursts of orchestral music. That's when the Beatles

01:13:42.800 --> 01:13:46.520
were really fucking reaching. There was one part

01:13:46.520 --> 01:13:49.000
of the audio in there that sounds like John Lennon

01:13:49.000 --> 01:13:52.199
masturbating. Probably was. But with a fan where

01:13:52.199 --> 01:13:55.760
it's going through his voice. It's like he's

01:13:55.760 --> 01:13:57.659
just beating off and recording it. This is nasty.

01:13:58.279 --> 01:14:02.720
And then the last one is the Beach Boys album

01:14:02.720 --> 01:14:06.270
Beach Boys Today. And the track Bull Session

01:14:06.270 --> 01:14:11.329
with Big Daddy. Okay. I'm glad I never got to

01:14:11.329 --> 01:14:13.289
know that song. Very glad about that. I looked

01:14:13.289 --> 01:14:17.050
it up on YouTube. It's about two minutes and

01:14:17.050 --> 01:14:21.470
40 seconds of just random conversations in the

01:14:21.470 --> 01:14:24.909
studio. You hear the guys hanging out, talking

01:14:24.909 --> 01:14:28.729
about some shows they did. They're BSing. Somebody

01:14:28.729 --> 01:14:31.170
comes in and brings them some fast food, and

01:14:31.170 --> 01:14:35.039
they're eating it. And about the most exciting

01:14:35.039 --> 01:14:37.439
thing that happens is there's a dick joke that

01:14:37.439 --> 01:14:41.000
they put in there. They needed something. One

01:14:41.000 --> 01:14:44.239
of them was talking about standing outside the

01:14:44.239 --> 01:14:46.720
hotel and meeting with this guy from Capitol

01:14:46.720 --> 01:14:50.159
Records named Dick Rising. Hell of a guy. Great

01:14:50.159 --> 01:14:54.260
guy. Greatest guy ever. Now, originally the thing

01:14:54.260 --> 01:14:56.479
was twice as long, and the record label said,

01:14:56.560 --> 01:14:58.859
uh -uh. Cut this back. Cut this back. This is

01:14:58.859 --> 01:15:02.760
stupid. But it's basically, they say it's like

01:15:02.760 --> 01:15:06.659
Brian Wilson was so impressed with Revolution

01:15:06.659 --> 01:15:08.760
9 that he wanted to do his own version of it.

01:15:09.020 --> 01:15:12.859
That hurts my feelings about Brian Wilson. Doesn't

01:15:12.859 --> 01:15:17.140
it? It's just terrible. Well, I have some bullet

01:15:17.140 --> 01:15:20.140
points. I love bullet points. Okay. All right.

01:15:20.720 --> 01:15:23.979
Will, first question, will any death or black

01:15:23.979 --> 01:15:26.350
metal bands ever get near the Hall of Fame? As

01:15:26.350 --> 01:15:28.430
in rock and roll. No. I don't think so either.

01:15:28.470 --> 01:15:29.930
I don't think so. I think it's going to be taboo

01:15:29.930 --> 01:15:32.430
forever. Yeah, they're just not family friendly

01:15:32.430 --> 01:15:34.550
and safe enough. There's something they can't

01:15:34.550 --> 01:15:37.149
promote and make money off of. If there is one,

01:15:37.329 --> 01:15:39.590
it will be King Diamond. And that's it. Yeah.

01:15:39.609 --> 01:15:44.350
And that's because he kind of became this, I

01:15:44.350 --> 01:15:48.350
don't know, almost lovable, maybe he's a quasi

01:15:48.350 --> 01:15:52.350
Satan worshiper, maybe he's quasi a lot of things.

01:15:52.409 --> 01:15:56.600
Yeah. You know, I don't know. Yeah. I do believe

01:15:56.600 --> 01:15:59.199
that he did come out and just say, yeah, you

01:15:59.199 --> 01:16:01.439
know, it's how I make a living. It's a gimmick.

01:16:01.439 --> 01:16:04.260
Come on, guys. So I think if anyone does, it

01:16:04.260 --> 01:16:06.420
will be him, but not Merciful Fate with him.

01:16:06.520 --> 01:16:08.979
No. Because that band, there's no way they could

01:16:08.979 --> 01:16:13.140
do that mainstream. No. So it would be King Diamond

01:16:13.140 --> 01:16:16.020
if there is one. Yeah, I can see that. All right.

01:16:16.520 --> 01:16:19.659
Who would be the most successful black metal

01:16:19.659 --> 01:16:22.000
or death metal band? And I think we just answered

01:16:22.000 --> 01:16:23.819
that. It would probably be King Diamond slash.

01:16:24.569 --> 01:16:27.109
Yeah. Verseful fate. Yeah, I don't think ministry

01:16:27.109 --> 01:16:29.810
quite qualifies as that genre. No, what would

01:16:29.810 --> 01:16:32.449
you call that? Industrial? Industrial metal,

01:16:32.550 --> 01:16:37.270
yeah. Industrial metal, yeah. Okay. All right,

01:16:37.329 --> 01:16:42.289
are there any concert promoters left? Wow. None

01:16:42.289 --> 01:16:45.489
of the ones I ever used to work for. No. No,

01:16:45.569 --> 01:16:47.529
they're all gone. I mean, it's all been taken

01:16:47.529 --> 01:16:50.270
over. Chris Fretz, Mark Valentine. Yeah. They're

01:16:50.270 --> 01:16:52.189
just, yeah, I don't even know what happened to

01:16:52.189 --> 01:16:55.180
them. I don't either. I don't either. Valentine

01:16:55.180 --> 01:16:57.420
had his own band, Valentine and the Very Wealthy.

01:16:58.100 --> 01:17:01.279
And he would book bands also. And a lot of times

01:17:01.279 --> 01:17:03.220
what he'd do is he'd book his own band, and then

01:17:03.220 --> 01:17:05.560
if he got a better gig, he would take the better

01:17:05.560 --> 01:17:07.680
gig and then book somebody else to take his spot.

01:17:08.239 --> 01:17:10.399
There were plenty of times the band I was in,

01:17:10.460 --> 01:17:12.319
people would say, it was supposed to be Valentine

01:17:12.319 --> 01:17:15.039
and the Very Wealthy. He's like, eh. He'd pull

01:17:15.039 --> 01:17:18.319
the bait and switch on you. That is funny. That

01:17:18.319 --> 01:17:23.159
is, you know. Pretty much been taken over by

01:17:23.159 --> 01:17:25.539
big business. Yeah. And also the advance feature

01:17:25.539 --> 01:17:27.380
where they're like, let's sell the tickets ahead

01:17:27.380 --> 01:17:29.699
of time. Yeah. They don't need money down now.

01:17:29.779 --> 01:17:31.680
And if it doesn't do it, I mean, we're supposed

01:17:31.680 --> 01:17:34.939
to go to Glenn Hughes tonight. Yeah. That's not

01:17:34.939 --> 01:17:37.039
going to happen. Yeah, it used to be bands had

01:17:37.039 --> 01:17:39.020
enough money to finance their upcoming tour.

01:17:39.159 --> 01:17:41.560
Or they would borrow the money. But now they

01:17:41.560 --> 01:17:43.539
just sell tickets. And if they don't sell enough

01:17:43.539 --> 01:17:45.539
tickets, they cancel the tour. If they sell enough,

01:17:45.720 --> 01:17:47.500
then they use that money. And it's always some

01:17:47.500 --> 01:17:53.850
bullshit excuse. My pinky hurts. It's funny.

01:17:53.909 --> 01:17:55.510
I mean, I love Glenn Hughes and everything, but

01:17:55.510 --> 01:17:57.409
I've never seen him more active ever since he's

01:17:57.409 --> 01:18:00.430
had this minor medical issue. This medical issue

01:18:00.430 --> 01:18:02.229
that was going to prevent him from touring and

01:18:02.229 --> 01:18:03.989
playing all those dates in a row, and you just

01:18:03.989 --> 01:18:05.510
couldn't do it. He was everywhere. Did he forget

01:18:05.510 --> 01:18:08.449
his excuse? Apparently he did. Well, he's just

01:18:08.449 --> 01:18:10.930
counting on us to not remember and not care.

01:18:11.069 --> 01:18:13.609
After Wasp, our replacement concert in Tulsa,

01:18:13.649 --> 01:18:15.289
that's it. I'm done with concerts. I'm never

01:18:15.289 --> 01:18:17.869
going again. Yeah, it's just not worth it. No,

01:18:17.949 --> 01:18:20.489
I'm just tired of it. I'll go pay money, but

01:18:20.489 --> 01:18:22.270
then they won't give me my money back when they

01:18:22.270 --> 01:18:24.579
back out of it. Fuck them. No, they're going

01:18:24.579 --> 01:18:27.819
to do it without me. All right. Okay, the industry

01:18:27.819 --> 01:18:30.020
has changed so much. What was the concert business?

01:18:30.300 --> 01:18:32.779
Was the concert business better with promoters

01:18:32.779 --> 01:18:35.140
and not the upfront money system? I would say

01:18:35.140 --> 01:18:37.579
yes. Yeah, the local promoters was such a good

01:18:37.579 --> 01:18:40.539
system from my perspective, especially during

01:18:40.539 --> 01:18:43.810
the time when the bands would come without. an

01:18:43.810 --> 01:18:45.989
opening act, and they'd have somebody local be

01:18:45.989 --> 01:18:48.649
their opening act. Yes. They were so good at

01:18:48.649 --> 01:18:51.229
that. I mean, their big bands had local ones.

01:18:51.369 --> 01:18:53.909
What was the one, the Uniforms or something?

01:18:54.689 --> 01:18:58.729
I remember J .T. Cook. J .T. Cook was one. I

01:18:58.729 --> 01:19:04.289
remember Secret Society. Yeah, I can't think

01:19:04.289 --> 01:19:08.949
of too many mothers. By the time I was in a good

01:19:08.949 --> 01:19:11.369
working band, that system had degraded to the

01:19:11.369 --> 01:19:14.899
point where When the smaller clubs would have

01:19:14.899 --> 01:19:18.060
a national touring act, then they would bring

01:19:18.060 --> 01:19:20.560
a local act in to be the opening act. And that's

01:19:20.560 --> 01:19:23.699
how I wound up opening for the Aerosmith tribute

01:19:23.699 --> 01:19:26.319
band, Toys in the Attic, and the Doris tribute

01:19:26.319 --> 01:19:28.500
band, Strange Days. Oh, okay. Because they were

01:19:28.500 --> 01:19:30.180
nationally touring, but they weren't bringing

01:19:30.180 --> 01:19:32.979
an opening act with them. The venue had to supply

01:19:32.979 --> 01:19:35.319
it. I think I remember them, too. Yeah. Yeah.

01:19:35.460 --> 01:19:38.260
Okay. So that was fun. Just like, cool, these

01:19:38.260 --> 01:19:40.020
guys are going to go off and do a national tour,

01:19:40.140 --> 01:19:42.500
and I was one of the stops on their way. Whatever

01:19:42.500 --> 01:19:45.220
that is smells fucking good. It does, doesn't

01:19:45.220 --> 01:19:48.100
it? That's just like torture. If I didn't have

01:19:48.100 --> 01:19:50.300
to pee so bad, I'd be over there. Oh, I am too.

01:19:50.859 --> 01:19:53.659
Me too. How long have we got? We've got a few

01:19:53.659 --> 01:19:59.279
more minutes. An hour and 17. Okay. Who had the

01:19:59.279 --> 01:20:03.760
best voice in rock ever, alive or dead? Gosh,

01:20:03.779 --> 01:20:06.180
Chris Cornell had such an amazing rock voice.

01:20:07.220 --> 01:20:10.859
Yeah, it's kind of hard to beat him. Dio? Dio,

01:20:11.039 --> 01:20:14.600
yeah. I think Jeff Tate had a really damn good

01:20:14.600 --> 01:20:17.920
voice. Yes, he still is. He can still hit some

01:20:17.920 --> 01:20:22.119
of those. I mean, for smoking and being mid -60s

01:20:22.119 --> 01:20:25.539
to 70, he still can carry it pretty good. Glenn

01:20:25.539 --> 01:20:32.640
Hughes is just a freak of nature. Chris Cornell,

01:20:33.039 --> 01:20:38.199
Dio. I could put Glenn Hughes there, but he's

01:20:38.199 --> 01:20:42.239
not really that. He's more of a soul guy. He's

01:20:42.239 --> 01:20:45.039
the kind of guy you put a candle up to his mouth

01:20:45.039 --> 01:20:47.060
when he's singing and the candle will stay lit.

01:20:47.220 --> 01:20:49.880
He does it completely from the diaphragm. He

01:20:49.880 --> 01:20:52.079
does it the right way. His range is incredible.

01:20:54.430 --> 01:20:57.470
And they love their singers with amazing voices,

01:20:57.529 --> 01:21:00.189
but they're not really rock voices. No, Axl Rose

01:21:00.189 --> 01:21:02.710
would be a great example. And Axl Rose, what

01:21:02.710 --> 01:21:04.930
I love about him is he layers his voice, but

01:21:04.930 --> 01:21:07.569
he doesn't do where Ozzy doubled his voice up

01:21:07.569 --> 01:21:10.590
on albums where it's the same pitch. He does

01:21:10.590 --> 01:21:13.930
different octaves on the same song singing the

01:21:13.930 --> 01:21:17.329
same lyric. That sounds better. It's amazing

01:21:17.329 --> 01:21:19.770
the way he does it. And it's like, wow, that's

01:21:19.770 --> 01:21:22.770
him. But he's singing it differently, and it's

01:21:22.770 --> 01:21:24.869
layered on top of him singing the regular way

01:21:24.869 --> 01:21:29.010
he sings. It will never be viewed as as much

01:21:29.010 --> 01:21:33.609
talent as what it is. Yeah. How about Roy Orbison?

01:21:33.750 --> 01:21:37.430
Should he be viewed as a legend? I would say

01:21:37.430 --> 01:21:40.430
so. I would too. His voice was so unique. Yeah.

01:21:40.810 --> 01:21:44.409
And nobody was really doing it. I mean, that

01:21:44.409 --> 01:21:47.550
high falsetto. No, they were not touching it.

01:21:47.550 --> 01:21:50.689
And that clear, wavering tones. Yeah. It was

01:21:50.689 --> 01:21:53.189
something else. He set the precedent for modern

01:21:53.189 --> 01:21:56.729
type of singing like that. I mean, he really.

01:21:56.890 --> 01:21:59.189
Yeah. They say if he would have looked as good

01:21:59.189 --> 01:22:00.909
as Elvis, he would have been bigger than Elvis.

01:22:00.949 --> 01:22:02.930
I think so, too. I think so, too. I believe it.

01:22:03.050 --> 01:22:06.130
I think Chris Isaac owes a lot to Roy Orbison.

01:22:06.130 --> 01:22:08.470
Oh, God, yeah. Yeah. Now, Chris Isaac, I like

01:22:08.470 --> 01:22:11.329
him, too. Yeah. But it is easy to see his influences,

01:22:11.329 --> 01:22:14.329
and Roy Orbison is a huge one. Yeah. Yeah. So,

01:22:14.329 --> 01:22:17.470
will Elvis Costello ever come out with new music?

01:22:18.310 --> 01:22:21.010
Oh, interesting. I know, I just got thinking

01:22:21.010 --> 01:22:22.609
of that. I really don't know what's happening

01:22:22.609 --> 01:22:24.710
to him. I don't either. Nobody hears anything

01:22:24.710 --> 01:22:27.489
about him. He just disappeared. The last thing

01:22:27.489 --> 01:22:30.829
I remember seeing him on was an episode of Frasier,

01:22:30.829 --> 01:22:34.970
of all things, where his character was a singer

01:22:34.970 --> 01:22:39.010
-guitar player in the cafe they went to all the

01:22:39.010 --> 01:22:41.270
time, Cafe Nervosa. Oh, I remember, yeah. And

01:22:41.270 --> 01:22:43.390
he showed up and started playing, and Frasier

01:22:43.390 --> 01:22:45.130
and Niles didn't like it, so they went and tried

01:22:45.130 --> 01:22:48.359
to find a different bar. And it wound up somebody

01:22:48.359 --> 01:22:51.239
got the guy a job at a bank, so he gave up his

01:22:51.239 --> 01:22:54.960
music career. Which was weird because that storyline

01:22:54.960 --> 01:22:57.819
was played out over and over and over in the

01:22:57.819 --> 01:23:02.779
late 60s. People being very successful in music.

01:23:03.279 --> 01:23:05.640
on like a TV show or a cartoon or something or

01:23:05.640 --> 01:23:08.760
a comic book. But the first opportunity to get

01:23:08.760 --> 01:23:11.239
in a normal 9 -to -5 job, they're like, yay!

01:23:11.340 --> 01:23:13.500
And they cut off all their hair and sell all

01:23:13.500 --> 01:23:16.420
their clothes and just give it up for the regular

01:23:16.420 --> 01:23:18.880
9 -to -5 -er and everybody would be smiling and

01:23:18.880 --> 01:23:23.079
happy about it. It's weird. It was like a very

01:23:23.079 --> 01:23:27.659
clumsy and heavy -handed way to try to tell people

01:23:27.659 --> 01:23:31.140
that pursuing a music career is childish and

01:23:31.140 --> 01:23:33.939
silly and it won't work. So just be a working

01:23:33.939 --> 01:23:36.659
drone the way we want you to be. Wake up, do

01:23:36.659 --> 01:23:39.640
your job, go home, pay your taxes, spend all

01:23:39.640 --> 01:23:46.340
your money and die. True. Will there ever be

01:23:46.340 --> 01:23:51.439
boy bands again? It may take 50 or 75 years,

01:23:51.640 --> 01:23:54.520
but probably. I agree. Probably. And the thing

01:23:54.520 --> 01:23:58.279
is, this also goes back to what Billy Corgan

01:23:58.279 --> 01:24:01.039
was saying. They like the one star that they

01:24:01.039 --> 01:24:04.359
can control. They buy all your dancers a dime

01:24:04.359 --> 01:24:07.060
a dozen. They have all the stage show already

01:24:07.060 --> 01:24:09.539
purchased and sitting in a warehouse somewhere.

01:24:09.760 --> 01:24:13.000
And it's like, you, go out there and do what

01:24:13.000 --> 01:24:15.479
you do. And a boy band is perfect for that because

01:24:15.479 --> 01:24:19.140
you get like four or five guys. And you give

01:24:19.140 --> 01:24:21.399
them other people's songs to sing with a proper

01:24:21.399 --> 01:24:23.779
production. You tell them what dances to do and

01:24:23.779 --> 01:24:26.479
how to dress, etc. So you can market them as

01:24:26.479 --> 01:24:29.180
a boy band. And then you let the public decide

01:24:29.180 --> 01:24:30.899
which are their favorite ones. Yeah, and you

01:24:30.899 --> 01:24:33.060
completely control them. Yep, and then those

01:24:33.060 --> 01:24:36.319
favorite ones get a solo career. Yes, yep. Yep,

01:24:36.359 --> 01:24:39.159
like Justin Timberlake. Yep. And ones like that.

01:24:39.319 --> 01:24:43.859
Yeah. So that's... Boy bands are an enormous

01:24:43.859 --> 01:24:49.489
money -making... for people, so it will come

01:24:49.489 --> 01:24:51.430
back for that reason. Not because people want

01:24:51.430 --> 01:24:53.770
boy bands, it'll come back because of the money

01:24:53.770 --> 01:24:55.970
-making potential there. Oh, I agree, yes. And

01:24:55.970 --> 01:24:57.689
the enormous control. Right now they're having

01:24:57.689 --> 01:24:59.909
fun with Ariana Grande's and stuff like that.

01:24:59.930 --> 01:25:02.229
They like the one person out there, the Billie

01:25:02.229 --> 01:25:05.449
Eilish stuff and all that. Yeah, except... Nobody

01:25:05.449 --> 01:25:07.609
really wants anything to do with her right now.

01:25:07.869 --> 01:25:11.090
No, I love it. They're probably just biding their

01:25:11.090 --> 01:25:12.869
time. It's like maybe a year from now things

01:25:12.869 --> 01:25:14.289
will cool off, but maybe not. She's still tasting

01:25:14.289 --> 01:25:18.409
her foot right now. Yeah. And she should. And

01:25:18.409 --> 01:25:20.689
somebody played her so bad. I mean, she's not

01:25:20.689 --> 01:25:22.470
smart enough to come up with that her own or

01:25:22.470 --> 01:25:24.170
decide to do that her own. You can look at her

01:25:24.170 --> 01:25:27.289
face and see the absent. Yeah. Yeah, screensaver.

01:25:27.550 --> 01:25:32.670
Yeah, screensaver. Just like, uh. Yeah. So, all

01:25:32.670 --> 01:25:36.310
right. What's the best concert drink, one alcohol

01:25:36.310 --> 01:25:42.289
and one not? Oh, man. I would think for a non

01:25:42.289 --> 01:25:48.949
-alcoholic, I remember getting lemonade once

01:25:48.949 --> 01:25:51.189
at an outdoor concert, and it basically saved

01:25:51.189 --> 01:25:54.649
my life. It was so good to get lemonade. You

01:25:54.649 --> 01:25:57.329
can't argue with lemonade on a hot afternoon.

01:25:57.369 --> 01:25:59.930
As long as it's not too sweet. Yeah, as long

01:25:59.930 --> 01:26:02.069
as it's not too sweet, it's tart and a little

01:26:02.069 --> 01:26:05.569
sweet. And as far as an alcoholic beverage, I

01:26:05.569 --> 01:26:07.609
don't know, it's one of the times I like to drink

01:26:07.609 --> 01:26:11.489
beer. Me too. I think a nice big yinling or something

01:26:11.489 --> 01:26:13.829
like that would be fine. And I don't necessarily

01:26:13.829 --> 01:26:16.289
want a dark beer or a craft brew. Just a good

01:26:16.289 --> 01:26:19.189
yinling and I'm good. Yeah. Okay. That's, you

01:26:19.189 --> 01:26:21.350
know, listening to music was about the only time

01:26:21.350 --> 01:26:25.210
I would drink beer. Yeah. Other times I was more

01:26:25.210 --> 01:26:28.529
of a, you know, just pour me a shot of bourbon.

01:26:29.000 --> 01:26:30.779
put any ice in it or anything like that just

01:26:30.779 --> 01:26:33.840
yeah yeah just neat yeah yep just take your chances

01:26:33.840 --> 01:26:37.100
yep slam it down see what happens or sip it slowly

01:26:37.100 --> 01:26:41.960
or both yeah um okay and finally will tone loke

01:26:41.960 --> 01:26:44.520
become a monk and live in the mountains yes yeah

01:26:44.520 --> 01:26:47.399
of course the writing's on the wall i don't even

01:26:47.399 --> 01:26:52.399
know where he's at anymore i don't know Well,

01:26:52.420 --> 01:26:54.300
you were talking about concerts being not what

01:26:54.300 --> 01:26:55.880
they're supposed to be. I've got a story about

01:26:55.880 --> 01:26:58.180
the Wu -Tang Clan. Oh, yeah, yeah. Speaking of

01:26:58.180 --> 01:27:01.680
Tone Loke and all that. Same timeline, pretty

01:27:01.680 --> 01:27:04.939
much. Okay, Wu -Tang Clans, they're being offered

01:27:04.939 --> 01:27:07.720
refunds after several members failed to appear

01:27:07.720 --> 01:27:11.199
on what was billed as a full lineup farewell

01:27:11.199 --> 01:27:15.180
tour. Now, I'll put a disclaimer here. I doubt

01:27:15.180 --> 01:27:16.899
they're getting refunds. I think they're getting

01:27:16.899 --> 01:27:19.760
credit. Yes. Because nobody gets their money

01:27:19.760 --> 01:27:23.720
back anymore. No. Thieves. Okay, the iconic hip

01:27:23.720 --> 01:27:25.520
-hop group played at the Brisbane Entertainment

01:27:25.520 --> 01:27:29.279
Center on March 25th, but not everyone was part

01:27:29.279 --> 01:27:31.279
of the show, despite it being billed as having

01:27:31.279 --> 01:27:35.579
all members on stage. Okay, the ones absent were

01:27:35.579 --> 01:27:39.319
Method Man, Raekwon, Capadonna, and Young Dirty

01:27:39.319 --> 01:27:43.859
Bastard. All absent. RZA, GZA, Ghostface Killa,

01:27:44.039 --> 01:27:46.699
Mastakilla, Inspector Deck, and UGod were there

01:27:46.699 --> 01:27:51.760
on stage. Uh -huh. Now, back in October... of

01:27:51.760 --> 01:27:55.760
2025 the tour was announced and it was billed

01:27:55.760 --> 01:27:58.539
by wu -tang clan as well as promoters teg dainty

01:27:58.539 --> 01:28:01.079
and the untitled group as a final australian

01:28:01.079 --> 01:28:04.420
run featuring all members but before the tour

01:28:04.420 --> 01:28:06.600
started the group posted on their instagram story

01:28:06.600 --> 01:28:09.039
the real method man would not be making the trip

01:28:09.039 --> 01:28:11.739
at all so he has never been a part of it wow

01:28:11.739 --> 01:28:15.079
okay um but there was no update about the other

01:28:15.079 --> 01:28:16.800
members for the shows including the melbourne

01:28:16.800 --> 01:28:19.569
and sydney concerts over the weekend I can't

01:28:19.569 --> 01:28:22.310
believe they're still selling in Australia. Yeah.

01:28:22.390 --> 01:28:26.069
Well, big farewell thing. That will draw people

01:28:26.069 --> 01:28:28.789
that really don't have much interest, but it's

01:28:28.789 --> 01:28:31.670
like, oh, it's the last one ever? I'll go. Yeah,

01:28:31.710 --> 01:28:35.829
that's true. Yeah. But then to have fully a third,

01:28:35.930 --> 01:28:38.470
close to half of their people just not even showing

01:28:38.470 --> 01:28:40.590
up, and then they don't tell you, and they just

01:28:40.590 --> 01:28:44.750
figure, oh, good enough. Yeah. Normally they

01:28:44.750 --> 01:28:47.609
would like... tell you and say, you know, here's

01:28:47.609 --> 01:28:49.449
an option to do something else. But no, they

01:28:49.449 --> 01:28:51.550
just let you show up, spend your money, and then

01:28:51.550 --> 01:28:53.970
it's up to you to actually object and do anything.

01:28:56.930 --> 01:29:00.310
So we'll see how that goes. They're still apparently

01:29:00.310 --> 01:29:03.350
doing their tour, but you're not going to see

01:29:03.350 --> 01:29:05.689
those guys out there. No. Nope, I don't know.

01:29:06.750 --> 01:29:10.069
And then recently, James Blake, who's been working

01:29:10.069 --> 01:29:12.569
with Kanye West as a producer for a long time,

01:29:13.079 --> 01:29:15.439
has asked to be taken off producer credits for

01:29:15.439 --> 01:29:19.539
Kanye West's new album, Bully. Is that bad? Well,

01:29:19.619 --> 01:29:23.279
apparently. It's his 12th studio album, which

01:29:23.279 --> 01:29:25.500
he debuted via YouTube on Friday. It includes

01:29:25.500 --> 01:29:27.439
production from a range of different artists.

01:29:27.460 --> 01:29:30.340
On the closing track, this one here, Blake is

01:29:30.340 --> 01:29:33.340
credited alongside Yee, Don Toliver, and Quentin

01:29:33.340 --> 01:29:37.359
Miller. NME reports that Blake has requested

01:29:37.359 --> 01:29:39.659
his name be taken off the credits as he believes

01:29:39.659 --> 01:29:41.840
the spirit of his work has not been represented

01:29:41.840 --> 01:29:45.199
in the final record. Responding to a fan on the

01:29:45.199 --> 01:29:47.380
video platform Vault, Blake wrote, The way I

01:29:47.380 --> 01:29:49.979
pitched his vocals and constructed the track

01:29:49.979 --> 01:29:55.460
from his stupid wind freestyle is partially there,

01:29:55.560 --> 01:29:58.039
majorly peppered with other newer vocal takes,

01:29:58.159 --> 01:30:00.000
etc., but the spirit of my actual production

01:30:00.000 --> 01:30:03.800
is mostly absent. So he had the song what he

01:30:03.800 --> 01:30:06.220
thought was finished, and then someone else came

01:30:06.220 --> 01:30:08.739
in and redid it, added a bunch of stuff, changed

01:30:08.739 --> 01:30:10.680
it all around, and he said, I don't want people

01:30:10.680 --> 01:30:13.119
to think this is my work. You know what? I get

01:30:13.119 --> 01:30:15.779
it. I get it. Yeah. He says, my original version

01:30:15.779 --> 01:30:17.899
is a completely different production in spirit.

01:30:18.140 --> 01:30:20.180
Happy for the fans, but I've asked to be taken

01:30:20.180 --> 01:30:22.239
off producer credits for now as I don't want

01:30:22.239 --> 01:30:24.380
to take credit for other people's work, and this

01:30:24.380 --> 01:30:28.590
version isn't what I created with Kanye. He went

01:30:28.590 --> 01:30:30.829
on to clarify, it's not personal, I'm not mad,

01:30:31.029 --> 01:30:32.930
I just hit a point where I don't want to be credited

01:30:32.930 --> 01:30:35.350
on music or I can't affect the end result. I

01:30:35.350 --> 01:30:38.310
get it. Yeah, that's his stamp. And it says Blake

01:30:38.310 --> 01:30:40.930
and Kanye have a long history together dating

01:30:40.930 --> 01:30:43.890
back to 2014. The two worked on a joint project

01:30:43.890 --> 01:30:47.010
known as WAR in 2022, but no music from that

01:30:47.010 --> 01:30:50.289
period was ever officially released. Hmm. Okay.

01:30:50.670 --> 01:30:54.170
So. Alright. It just seems a little strange that

01:30:54.170 --> 01:30:59.500
Kanye was very willing to just like run over

01:30:59.500 --> 01:31:01.939
everything the guy had done. Yeah. It's like,

01:31:01.979 --> 01:31:03.579
no, not good enough. Let's bring in other people

01:31:03.579 --> 01:31:07.100
and do some more. All right. Well, due to the

01:31:07.100 --> 01:31:08.899
fact that it's colder than shit and we want to

01:31:08.899 --> 01:31:10.520
go eat, we're going to go ahead and get out of

01:31:10.520 --> 01:31:13.520
here. So, but you got, you got your money's worth

01:31:13.520 --> 01:31:15.619
on this one. Definitely. Like always, we thank

01:31:15.619 --> 01:31:17.319
you guys for listening. It's definitely working.

01:31:17.420 --> 01:31:19.199
You guys are telling people we love it. Thank

01:31:19.199 --> 01:31:21.880
you very much. We really appreciate it. And please

01:31:21.880 --> 01:31:22.680
go fuck yourself.
