Crash Test Dummies have the best Christmas album called Jingle All The Way. Dark, lovely and full of interesting and unusual arrangements of the classics.

Great example of pop/psych from the late 60's... they also did the soundtrack for Barbarella. Tinkerbell's Mind.

Interesting album title. Paired with content, no way I don’t draw the connection to a great example of late 90’s pop/psych

 

 

One other thing came to mind, from that era where some bands weren't really bands, just a producer and studio musicians. This one was Gary Usher who watched Brian Wilson in action and stole some ideas (and maybe some master tapes?). Glen Campbell and Bruce Johnston of the Beach Boys touring ensemble and LA Wrecking Crew helps with the heavy lifting.

Every year the high school band closes the winter concert with Sleigh Ride and they invite alumni back. Last year the concert was cancelled so this was was the first year my son's got to share the stage. 

 

Happy holidays TBD music sharers!

I used to have a Sagittarius album, a double maybe... the big blue ball, the big blue marble, something like that. Sold it on eBay probably 20 years ago.

One of the greatest front men ever... the lyrics for this song are perfect, I'm sure Mr. Byrne took a few idea's from this and the rest of Roxy's Music.

I mean, it's not like the Butcher Cover or something, but would fetch 20-40 bucks now.

That is it, haven't heard it in a long time... I'll play it when I get the grill going later on.

I’m positive I’ve heard this. Holy crap. But probably not since 1979 at Home Of The Hits and only because they were letting Mark Freeland pick the tunes or something like that.

 

I can only think of one other track with Leatherette in the name.

 

 

Freeland was a very interesting guy.  I have some stories, but for some other time.

Wow... Bonnie Raitt in her late 20s... Emmylou about 30ish... Lowell George would be dead in 2 years!

On the live track ("You Don't Get Much")... Kurt Neumann (BoDeans) goes on to mention how he came up with this song... They were working w/T Bone Burnett and Kurt said how he had a crush on Emmylou Harris when he was younger... T Bone is like: "That oughtta be a song!"  So it it is!  I can see why! Hubba Hubba! 😊 😳

 

Here it here from the previous track on their double-live: "Joe Dirt Car"... "You Don't Get Much"... Kurt's story starts @ about 4:17/4:25 as he strums into the "Lookin'" chord...

Failure reminds me a bit of the Kinks, they don't really have any clunkers but don't get the cachet they should

 

 

Which makes me think of other underrated stuff, just a piledriver riff

 

 

And these guys were just better than I expected as an opening act, so sure, have a plug.

the first clip u posted was from one of my fav finds of the year on youtube the basement session. the song you chose is an absolute gem. I tried to listen to **** Christmas but it only played in my left headphone...? the first one played fine. *shrugs*

Punk is not audiophile recording lol.  But is still sounds great on a good sound system loud!

"Midnight Rider" with Vince Gill, Gregg Allman and Zac Brown - YouTube

 

for leo @leh-nerd skin-erd

 

 

You had me at “Midnight…”.  Saw the Allman Bros a few times at the Saratoga Performing Arts Center—-cool venue not that far from @mead107 I’ll bet.  
 

Vince Gill takes me back to Pure Praire League and “Amy” every Friday and Sat night at Cassidy’s in Buffalo.  
 

ZBB is top 5 for my all time favorite concerts. Great energy, great sound and an awesome family time.  Also saw them at SPAC.
