Jimmy Carl Black 1938-2008

“Lonesome Cowboy Burt” was “Harder Than Your Husband (to get along with).”  Where’s my waitress?

He was one talented Mother drummer.

Speaking of Zappa’s drummers, here’s a beat-off between Chad Wackerman and Terry Bozzio, with a couple of absolutely ridiculous drum sets.

Don’t like them? Here’s Gene Krupa vs. Buddy Rich.

Don’t like them? Here’s Marky Ramone to explain it all.

Don’t like Marky Ramone?

Eh.

The 7 Things meme

I usually ignore memes, but since it came from Kitty, I’ll pony up.  Gotta tag 6 others (and I apologize) who are expected to link back to this post and tag 6 of their own: EPIC, VE, Planetross, Amy Oops, Aerchie, Necro.

Seven things you may not know about Bunk:

seven_fingered_hand

  1. Bunkessa and Bunkarina are not my daughters’ real names.
  2. My first car was a 1957 Chevy BelAir 4-door and it was older than I was.
  3. I’ve been teargassed before. By accident.
  4. I’ve been to Bangs, Jupiter, Ballarat, Mt. Pisgah, Tomball, Pahrump, Xxyxx Road and the Ubehebe Crater.
  5. I won 3rd place in a foosball tournament in Pampa Texas.
  6. I’m better on harmonica than Bob Dylan and Neil Young, but not as good as James Cotton.
  7. I know what a Simpson PATM strap is used for.

Did I get ’em all right?

Fun.

It all starts on 20 January 2009, and, yeah, the guy is flexing his eel while he has window reflections in his sunglasses, as a diminutive sea bat circles a barely perceptible void in his skull.  THIS CARTOON IMAGE UNKNOWINGLY VOTED FOR SOCIALISM.

Hunker down my friends. We’re in for a long 4-8 year high volume/low velocity ride downhill on a gravel road with pre-engineered potholes and no brakes.  For those of you who still don’t get it, rent Terry Gilliam’s “Brazil.” Read “Animal Farm” again.  Find a copy of Thomas Sowell’s “Black Rednecks and White Liberals.”

Then spread out and teach an elected Republican about the tenets of Conservatism.

Lost battles do not equate to lost wars.

Cordially, Bunk

Yeah! RIGHT IN HIS PANTS! EEEW!

I don’t understand it either, but it has something to do with Spiderman and the election results.

If you don’t vote against it, you will have no right to complain about it. If you vote for it, you’ll not be allowed to complain about it later. It’s your choice.

Vote not for your children. Vote for your grandchildren.

Amazing that it takes a Brit to say what the “unbiased” American media won’t.

At least the Brits have an open press.

“You have to pinch yourself – a Marxist radical who all his life has been mentored by, sat at the feet of, worshiped with, befriended, endorsed the philosophy of, funded and been in turn funded, politically promoted and supported by a nexus comprising black power anti-white racists, Jew-haters, revolutionary Marxists, unrepentant former terrorists and Chicago mobsters, is on the verge of becoming President of the United States. And apparently it’s considered impolite to say so.”

GOT MUD?

Only one day left to sling it before Tuesday’s elections…

Saturday Matinee on Sunday: Jaco, John, Willie, T-Bone, Helen, Sonny, Brownie, John, Memphis & others (featuring Tom Waits)

Jaco Pastorius with John Scofield.  Not sure who is on drums.  Pastorius is my all time favorite bass player, (with Bootsy Collins a close second).

Willie Dixon was a classic bassman.  Not sure who is on the ivories, but it’s not Eubie Blake, Meade Lux Lewis, Albert Ammons or Pete Johnson.  Memphis Slim?

This has gotta be one of the greatest blues lineups in history:  Willie Dixon, Memphis Slim, T-Bone Walker, Helen Hume, Sonny Terry, Brownie McGhee and John Jackson.

Emotional Weather Report delivered by Tom Waits.
