I don't know exactly why but your songs always make me think of The Who-Sell Out album.  You are an original, creative and cool songwriter, thats for sure.  Lovely listen.  Keep on lurking man, the lurk is strong with you grasshopper......I am in serious lurk mode myself these days ...... its a state of mine.

Quote from: Satchwood on November 20, 2011, 11:56:03 AMGreat song Ted, love that freakin smokin bass line and really cool lyrics!! i'm glad the zit on your forehead is gone lol i've eaten alot of tortillas, but i've never had a flowered tortilla :)

You should really try em... they're delicious... and make your breath smell good to boot.

I've had many flour tortillas, and once deflowered a tortilla. Don't judge. It was consensual.

Thanks everyone. This is an oldie, and it was fun to breathe some new life into it.

steelguitar: I don't know much about JJ Cale, but I probably should. I was a little surprised myself at how this sounded. It reminded me of Gypsy Kings.

Lurkberry: I've been a fan of The Who for many years, but I don't have a copy of The Who Sell Out. Gotta get that one.

You slacker, you suck.



But the song's great, it's wonderful to hear more material from you. I love the guitar and uke parts, really melodic, and the bass in the middle is fab! This is in the same crazy zone as most of Henwrench's stuff, which means it is totally wonderful.

Best of luck with the Nutrients reunion, I'm sure that will be a blast. Videos please, or it never happened.

Cheers,

Nigel

I haven't had this much fun since George Bush gave me a noogie! Well played and put together - Make sure you post some of your New Year's Eve gig with the Nutrients. I'd love to hear some of that.

Fanslackertastic!

We had a rehearsal tonight. The first time we'd practiced together in 25 years or so. We were very rusty, but not more rust than some steel wool couldn't scrub it off with some effort.

Our big reunion show was a bunch of fun. The first video available happens to be "Continents."


We did a live recording of the whole show, but I haven't heard it yet.

Yes we did. And I told more than one person at the party that somewhere in England there's a madman who did a cover of "Cob."

I'll post the video as it becomes available.
