Down on the Loop I mostly went to Cicero's not Blueberry Hill so much. Cicero's basement was a dive in real sense of the word. The old (original?) basement bar was famous because it was maybe a 6" riser in a 150 year old building's basement. You'd hit your head just walking, forget jumping around. Anyway Alex Chilton was the first person to use it in late 80s. It was only a venue for a few years but launched Uncle Tupelo. That was the first place I'd heard them.

This is the Old 97s playing there. I saw a band called The Delilah's there. Their lead singer was really tall, like Dean tall. He just hung on that beam all night so he wouldn't knock himself out.
I knew Blueberry Hill sounded wrong but I couldn't remember the name. It was definitely Cicero's basement that I saw the Bottle Rox at. The ceiling was low even for me. I remember thinking that basement was a fire hazard waiting to happen.

song: "Mona Lisa"
album: post no bills (1990)

The Green PJs performing a short set on KEXP back in 2013.

My 12 year old asked me last night if I had ever heard of Pharcyde and I was like, "Have I?!?!?" I can't remember how she said heard it but she said she liked it so I thought it prudent for today:



I was around her age when I remember seeing this video on MTV so I thought it was kind of cool for us to have that shared experience at the same time in our lives.

Here's another hot joint from the 80's!
Hey, hey, baby, how you doin', come on in here
Got some hot chocolate on the stove waitin' for ya
Listen, first things first, let me hang up that coat
Yeah, 'n' how's your day today, did ya miss me?
Oh, you did, yeah, I missed you, too
I missed you so much I followed you today
That's right
Now close your mouth
Cause you cold busted
That's right, now sit down here
Sit down here
So upset with you I don't know what to do
'n' my first impulse was to run up on you
And do a Rambo
Whip out the jammy and flat-blast both of you
But I ain't wanna mess up this thirty-seve hundred dollar lynx coat
So instead, I chilled
That's right, chilled, then I went to the bank
Took out every dime
And then I went and canceled all those credit cards
Yeah
All your charge accounts
Yeah
I stuck you up for every piece of jewelry I ever bought you
Yeah
That's right, everything
Everything
Did fool out with me
Naw, don't go, you ever go, don't go looking in that closet
Cause you ain't got nothing in there
Everything you came here with--
Is packed up and waiting for you in the guest room
That's right, what was you thinking about, huh?
What were you tryin' to prove, huh?
You's with the Juice
'n' I gave you silk suits, Gucci handbags, blue diamonds
I gave you things you couldn't even pronounce
Now I can't give you nothin' but advice
Cause you're still young
That's right, you're still young
I hope you learn a valuable lesson from all this
You know?
Gonna find someone like me one of these days
Until then, know what you gotta do?
You gotta get on outta here with that
Alley-cat-coat wearin'
Hush-puppy-shoe-wearing'
Crumb cake I saw you with
Cause you dismissed
That's right, silly rabbit
Tricks are made for kids, don't you know that?
You without me: like cornflake without the milk
It's my world--you just a squirrel, tryin' to get a nut
Now get on outta here
Ah!
Don't touch that coat!

Todays my Friday so here ya go. I remember my sister bought this new tape back in 89 by this whack group called De La Soul. At 9 years old I was like WTF is this?!? It wasn't until I heard this song that it changed my whole perspective on hip hop and it sucked me in like a moth to a flame and I have been in love ever since.

Did you know De La Soul has never been available on iTunes or other streaming services? Interesting that, apparently their lawyers never got permission for their samples for any media other than physical.

This is a tragedy. If for not other reason that youngins are missing out on easy access to good music.

It's my Friday again a day early! I know this maybe blasphemous but Stevie Ray Vaughns version of "Voo Doo Child" is damn near better then Jimis version.

Spotify has some De La Soul, but nothing older than 2004.

Now that it's actually Friday, here's one for all the Game of Thrones nerds (that would be me). This is a guitar cover of the opening theme song by Game of Thrones creator Dan Weiss, Rage Against the Machine guitarist Tom Morello, Anthrax guitarist Scott Ian, Extreme guitarist Nuno Bettencourt, Brad Paisley and Game of Thrones composer Ramin Djawadi.

I like this dudes covers.
Toto's Africa has been a guilty pleasure of mine forever!



Than seeing Weird Al sing a song normally is odd too...
