Mostly impulsive stuff previously posted elsewhere, including Toshi & Toshita in a glass in a bowl. And yeah, that’s a fez ant.

Bring It On Home, Sonny Boy Williamson II (1963) This classic was written by Willie Dixon and recorded in 1963 (with Matt “Guitar” Murphy) but wasn’t released until three years later. Led Zeppelin covered the song on their album Led Zeppelin II (1969). In 2017 Randy Newman wrote Sonny Boy, a song about Rice Williams’ theft of the original Sonny Boy Williamson’s identity.

Saturday Matinee – A.I. – The Carnival of the Ages, LA Priest, The Growlers & Sturgill Simpson’s Sunday Valley
“Where past and future collide in a retro-futuristic spectacle.”
[via Nag On The Lake]
LA Priest (aka Sam Dust, aka Sam Eastgate) found some electrical outlets in the Mexican jungle to play Carribean techno space lounge music.
The Growlers had some fun with a dark subject.
Enough of that oddness. Time for some jaw-dropping high speed electric bluegrass hollerin’ cowpunk, and Sunday Valley fits the bill. The band is defunct, but Sturgill Simpson is still kicking it… somewhere.
Well looky here. It’s the weekend again, so have a great one and we’ll see you back here tomorrow.

Saturday Matinee – Genya Ravan, Pat Benatar & Larkin Poe
Proto punk soul singer and producer Genya Ravan blew me away when I heard Stay With Me (1970), and check out her 1977 interview here.
Pat Benatar‘s 1991 cover of Denzil Laing & the Wrigglers‘ 1958 cover of
Wynonie Harris‘ 1951 cover of Hank Penny‘s song from 1949.
Larkin Poe gets all nasty and swampy.
You know the drill. Have a great weekend.
