Saturday Matinee Roadtrip – Talking Heads, Beat Farmers, Steve Earle, Bruce Springsteen, Robert Mitchum & the Winter Bros.

Saturday, 28 May 2011

Talking Heads‘ “Road to Nowhere.”

Beat Farmers‘ “Road to Ruin.” These guys were a great bar band.

Steve Earle‘s “Copperhead Road.”

Bruce Stringbean & the E Street Band‘s “Thunder Road,” in 1976.

Roger Mitchum‘s “Ballad of Thunder Road.”

Johnny & Edgar Winter, 2007, with Dylan’s classic “Highway 61 Revisited.”

The cooler’s full, the car’s gassed up, and we’re outta here. Have a great weekend, folks, and we’ll see you at the first rest stop after sunup.

Saturday Matinee – Giant Isopods, Claymation, The Swamp, Jolly Boys, Lady Day & Satchmo

Giant Isopods! Yay! [via]

Sure, it’s amateur Claymation, but it kept my attention for the pure and simple oddness of it all.

Talking Heads were one of the premier punk bands out of CBGB’s, even though the punk genre (gawd I hate that word “genre”) was coopted by others who trashed it and gave it a bad name in the late 70s.

The Jolly Boys sing Amy Winehouse’ “Rehab” [via]. I gotta find out more about these guys.

Let’s see. Got four videos up, and since five is ideal for subliminal reasons, let’s roll one more for the road.

Awesome combination of Lady Day and Satchmo.  Have a great weekend, folks, and we’ll be back tomorrow.

Saturday Matinee: Black Friday the 13th

Thinly veiled political commentary follows.

Steely Dan was (is?) one of those bands that Bunk enjoyed listening to but never bothered to buy their albums. (Note that the band took it’s name from a stimulus package described by this guy.)

Couldn’t find a video of Talking Heads’ “The Swamp” but this’ll do. Hah.

Obama’s congress in action. Watch what happens to the U.S. economy.

On a lighter note, Happy St. Valentine’s Day!
