loved this video on M-TV

hated this on am radio. not to bad a change from the thumping rock I usually play

someone gifted me this album. can't remember if it was vinyl or wha.. Zappa and George Carlin seem related somehow.

1975 I was 12. this played constantly on AM radio. much lower quality than hearing it now. keep expecting to hear a DJ break in when it fades out. WIRL Peoria and WLS Chicago. youtube has many versions.

Note the video's title cards…

Apocrypha: 2 Esdras 14:39-40

…and yet the duo is styled in homage to Alejandro Jodorowsky's Holy Mountain and Kenneth Anger's Lucifer Rising. A clash of non-conflicting ideas…? Artistes: whaddya gonna do with 'em?

$2,300,000.00 BONUS:

• From Disney's Lady and The Tramp - The Siamese Cat Song

• From The Wonderful World of Disney, a staged voiceover session with Ms Lee

Tsk, tsk, Unca Walt…seems brother Roy and his bean counters forgot to pay Ms Lee (voice actor, singer and co-composer of the five original songs from the film) royalties when the Disney company released Lady on VHS in 1987—you say "copies," I say "transcriptions." Maybe they were too busy plotting the Mickey Mouse Preservation Act with Sen Sonny Bono…?

Ms Peggy Lee, Unca Walt and Sen Bono would like to inform you all that in the United States of America you may do as you please with the following Public Domain image, be it reproduction and sale on t-shirts, posters, or producing new adventures of the pictured character…but you're going to have to give it a new name.

Free your mind and your ass will follow…

The Fluoxetine Quartet, a ray of sunshine each and every one of 'em, captured live way back in June 23, 2006 CE, circa five years after the fall of the Roman Empire.

Reference-1000Hz-Tone BONUS:

• The Normal (Daniel Miller) - Warm Leatherette

The minimalist classic.

A lot of people don't realize what's really going on. They view life as a bunch of unconnected incidents and things. They don't realize that there's this, like, lattice of coincidence that lays on top of everything.

You can listen to any of the near-infinite versions of this song…but none match the beauty and power of this version, lead vocal by the great Tony Williams. Close your eyes…

• The Platters - The Great Pretender

What the feez, "Blood"? This isn't ~~grating~~ avant-garde or free jazz in the least! It sounds like Mssr Ulmer is channeling Jimi who's channeling T-Bone through Otis Rush!

Then again, like Grant Green used to say, It's all blues anyhow.

Back-From-The-Alternate-Universe BONUS:

• James "Blood" Ulmer - A Thing for Joe

That's more like it…

Detroit-born musical child prodigy Frank Isaac Robinson was known professionally as "Sugar Chile" Robinson—you can roll your eyes; it was a "different time". Robinson played with such luminaries as Lionel Hampton, Count Basie and Billie Holiday until in 1952 he said "stop." More on this wunderkind over at !detroit as today he is appearing live for a special performance at the Detroit Film Theatre's weekend screening of the 1943 classic musical, Stormy Weather.]

Compare-And-Contrast BONUS:

• Live, 2007, at the Royal Oak Music Theatre, Royal Oak, MI
