Best 3 song shuffle EVAH

[fingertrouble]

1. California Dreaming - Bobby Womack
2. Jealous Guy - Donny Hathaway
3. Bonzo Dog Band - Canyons of your Mind 2 (BBC version)

Doesn't get better than that - to hear Donny sing

'I was feeling insecure,
You might not love me any more'

send shivers down my spine, as does Bobby singing:

'gotta get some sunshine,
before I blow my mind'

And the Bonzos are just surreal brilliance.

In other news, Tim gets flamed out and burned out publically by an internet acquaintance. So what's new? everyone says...well it's never new, just stuff like that never loses it's sting, whether from a close friend or random person who hits the right button accidentally. Just changes the vary of degree and your reaction, that's all.

Sigh.

BONUS: Pioneers - Time Hard - how appropriate to today's climate.

"You never see smoke without fire
Oh! You gotta hold your head up higher
Everyday things are getting worse'

And then Fleetwood Mac - Silver Springs. My iPod is on fire today!

I 'bout DIED the first time I heard 'The Sound of Music'
and still in awe of the musical talent it takes to create a little ditties like 'My Pink Half of the Drainpipe', 'Sport the Odd Boy', AND "Look Out there's a Monster Coming' [TOO FUNNY]
Cheers Queers! BRUTE

Yeah I love the Bonzo Dog Doodah Band -and Viv and Neil's later stuff, Rutles etc. Planning to do a show for Radio Clash - in fact I did one years ago but it got shelved due to being 2+ hours long! But I will do that show very soon. Like Ivor Cutler so many people don't know the brilliance of Viv and Neil and the band's work, which is sad and in a little way I hope to help rectify.

BTW really random fact but I was taught by Roger Ruskin Spear at Chelsea College of Art, he taught 3D Design there. His father was a brilliant artist too.

Admittedly I came rather late to BDDB - I never liked Urban Spaceman, so I never checked out their other stuff - my mistake!
