Wanda Jackson...Fujiyama Mama.

Somehow, this just dovetails perfectly with some of the Kay Starr and Teresa Brewer stuff I have been listening to lately.

Meow!

Going more recent...
Here is a bit by a man I have seen many times and shaken hands with.
Mr. Greg Koch. Amazing guitar master.
I have posted many of his things over the years, and here is a very recent one.
Them's The Breaks.

Greg does a LOT of promo work for various guitar makers.
Because he can whack the hell out of most any axe made and display what they are capable of.....
This clip was posted in the last week or two with a BEAUTIFUL blue Gretch Brian Setzer Hot Rod model....and then plays another.
Discussing it with him is Joe Carducci with the Gretch factory.

The tone he gets out of these is astounding....

LITTLE HINT...
If this interests you, and you have little bit of bandwidth available, set the resolution to 1080p HD and full screen it. Looks just beautiful on my 32" monitor!!!
Enjoy.

Well..........
Please forgive me for still going along very old torn up tracks.
I had long forgotten this one, and it is still delightful to me.
And I know where I am going the very next cut after this one, LOL.

The Double Yodel.

I know these things do not delight everybody, but hey, they bring me some joy by sharing them with the few that might.

Here is the other one that enchanted me.
If you don't like Jewel, don't click.
I know she, as I do, has many detractors. Not my concern.
My interest is only in this single yodel moment at this time.
It was wonderful in my eyes. At least from a technical standpoint, it has to be.

The Jewel yodel........

Pardon me for sometimes trying to interrupt and interject into your little online games, my friends.

As usual, I have had a few drinks tonight, and my exuberance precedes me.

It has been a rough week at work, and the next have no promise of being anything but.

I have established that, I think, I can be a fellow here, and sometimes a friend.

If some of you have established that, we can go on from here.

Please take what I post not as an affront, but as just me sharing with anybody who wishes to partake of my past experiences. I do not do this to affront, just to share.
These are things that at the present or in the past, have meant something to me.
I sometimes do the quote thingy......and these are meant in the terms and times that I learned them in and took a liking to them.

Only You.
And the only reason you have not heard some of this stuff is because nobody else has spoken for them.
These little spoken for musicians need agents. And a place to perform their stuff out and in the open. Many have material that would make them prime time artists if given the chance.

I need to find the little found channels on the tube, and sometimes I do,.


I wish I were some kind of millionaire sitting here and wondering what to do with it.......;....

I told you once a long time ago that I had owned a recording studio.
Nothing was commercially successful.
We tried.

The point was, I knew the mechanics of what it takes to get a song heard by the music execs and then the jocks.

It is simply this.......m o n e y.

What you paid to the guy that came around and listend did not care about the sound. He was just listening to see if he thought you were doing something commercially viable. And then they would step in...

I tried to ignore them, and then things got rather wild.
I had one good up and coming band, the Crazys. They had a song called Wacko...yeah, believe it or not, that was the song that was going to go top 40 for them.

The goon heard it......ooops.
Hey gave his upstairs a call and demanded money. I said we did not have any, and things got rough.
They arsoned the studio the next night and everything was lost.
It did not matter that the master tapes were lost, but the whole studio was gone.

So, when I talk at times about knowing about the fifties and payola.......kids, I paid big time. You have not a clue.

PS.........yes, I know I was just in my teens then. I did have the cash and knew what to do with it. I know the time stamps. I, at this age, have a problem with points in time. But, this is not one of them...K? When you live it, you remember it.

And ya know...
I have places I still should not go and yet do.

Like Christina Ricci's skinny face. As in Black Snake Moan.
I'd take that gurl and lock her up so tight there would be no force on earth that could take her from me.

And, in my tragically perfect world, she would be happy with that.

I would rescue her from any dragon or demon on earth..
I know who's snake wuz moan'in.

I be fixin' steak for supper...........
And I expect you to stay....LOL.
For her own good, I suspect.
