These are some Truckee weirdoes. The music is basic/simple 4 piece rock, usually 12bar boogie based, but what kills, absolutely KILLS is the songwriting, the lyrics, the placement. Many stories and colorful commentary on whats going on. Songs range from just plain fun to pretty goddamned poignant. This is about as “DIY” and local as it gets. This is great stuff, best shit ever. Play with, um, maybe Jonathon Richman, Brian Kenny Fresno. Unmastered CD-r.
1) (5:24) Awesome ode to Fresno: 12 bar based rockin rock, “nobody surfs down in Fresno but everybody there they rock and roll” with a good radio reference
2) (3:16) Tripping on acid at Disneyland. Yes, you read that right
3) (7:14) “way back when”, accounting of present in terms of the past, fucking great, epic
4) (4:45) Uses “asshole” and “ass”, might be a nervous FCC, “I’m not the only asshole in el paso, I’m getting drunk with Pablo Picasso”, slight western Mexican tone
5) FCC (lewd, too bad)
6) (4:21) kinda relaxed “summer” feel and lyric ref, but twisted and wrong lyrics
7) (3:56) rockin, blues bar band style, “no fish no fish today”, ode to loneliness, weird
8) (3:32) country tinge, feel, talk on how sex has been ruined since the 80’s, “I’m old, over the hill but lord I still love to get laid”, amen
9) (3:12) a bit of an upbeat jamout, a run down on his life year by year, awesome
10) (3:17) “I like it a lot”, yeah
11) (3:54) upbeat rockin, “Boys Rock, Girls Rule”- what fucking awesome line/hook!!
