Admittedly ,this item ha only an obscure link to Wall of Voodoo history but there IS a connection ,for those in the know: Harold von Braunhut, who ingeniously marketed one of the ugliest and
most boring aquatic creatures in existence -- the almost-invisible
brine shrimp -- as" Sea Monekys," died last month. "...Mr. von
Braunhut's piece de resistance was Sea Monkeys -- which come from
dried-up lake bottoms, not the sea, and are not monkeys but brine
shrimp. His extravagant claims for the crustaceans -- for example,
that they come back from the dead and that they can be trained and
hypnotized-- are convincing because they are sort of true. (The shrimp
do follow light.)
Billions of shrimp have been sold, not to mention a Sea Monkey
aphrodisiac and a wrist watch filled with swimming shrimp. There are
Web sites for sea monkey fans; CBS briefly had a Sea Monkeys series on
Saturday mornings; 400 million of them went into space with John Glenn
in 1998; and, for the lazy, a new Sea Monkey video game allows a
player to 'virtually' care for a shrimp colony, lest the animals
'virtually' die." contributed from Mucker

Happy holidays to one and all! Special love and thanks go out to Chas, Bruce, Stan, Andy and Ned (with a wink and a wave heavenward to Marc and Joe) for creating some of the most amazing music EVER. I've been listening to it for a couple of decades and I never get tired of it. Rock on, dudes.
Now I'm off to find some way to dispose of this fruitcake. Where the hell are the guys in the hazmat suits when you need 'em??

The DVD worked for me, no problem at all, and this
thing is THE ULTIMATE WoV experience available today.
The old footage is just unbelievably cool.
I am just wondering, does your new DVD player play:
DVD+R AND DVD-R? This is of the
utmost importance. Maybe you can take back the recorder you
bought, and bring the DVD to the store with you & try it out.
This thing is a must, I tell ya.
(BTW, the DVD player I bought was only $89.00 USD)
Best of luck with it

ABOUT THE VHS RIPPING.
Never use Real Video. Always use XviD :). If you want some REALLY good guides on TV/VHS Analogue Capturing go to: http://www.doom9.org
This is all you will need. There you'll find how to optimize your system, how to capture and how to compress the video and audio, and everything else...
When you go to this website you have to click on the GUIDES section.
I don't think you will have more questions about the ripping part, but if you have, just ask :).
About the hosting, there are different ways of shareing a file. Putting it on a web hosting is not a good idea. Use ftp instead. The best is the edonkey network, for now. I don't know, really.

Mazda, i'll tell you what i know... absolutely nothing, but its good to see i got a rise out of you!?!? you know that there is no other producer out there that can match your talents??
what i cant understand is that although "mexican Radio" was the only song that really made mainstream success, so many other songs that were produced were not only as good, they were better.. nothing off "dark continent" ever really received airplay, and you would think that after "call of the west", there would be high expectations with "7 days" and the label would/should have promoted it,even though stan had departed... when i was in college, i worked as a dj for 4 years in the late 80's and early 90's and i brought my cd's to my shifts and played the shit out of "ugly americans". people would call in stating " who are these guys?"....

I agree with DECAY - WOV songs still take me away to that special place that only they can take me. I can never thank the boys enough.
On a related side note, Suzanne Vega's "As Girls Go" (from '99.9f Degrees') takes me to that same place. No other song does, though. How about y'all? Any other songs remind you of that special 'Voodoo' feeling?

Thanks for the insight Hippie D.
It was the Mod scene here in California. I dabbled but was too rooted in the hard rock of the times. Somehow the Voodoo stuck. It was my eighties theme music. Then later, I drifted through the Grateful Dead scene with my psychadelic magic VW bus. During the latter nineties, I was the Bass Assassin of a never known math-metal studio project in Oakland. We burned a collection of short, action violence theme music that I will someday put to use on amature karate video spoof production. Dark chase through the back streets with good-evil gang overtones...I used to be a blackbelt in my day. I helped produce a few instructional vids for my old school. in front and behind the camera...studio..direction...you know.
Well E nuf for now I spose.

Well Quinn,interesting you should ask, the scooter scene is massive here, indeed I have been going on rallies for several years.I have a Vespa,which is like the 60s italian ones.At the rallies they play ska, two-tone, punk, northern soul.The music scene is still going here, a few bands, as to in general, the pre-pubo's and teens are into dance-all dressed in american baseball caps, sports wear,like sheep they all look alike.Many like me go to clubs out of the way, watch 60s psychedelic type bands, but I also like White Stripes,Black Rebel Motorcycle club.But Voodoo are still the best.

Thanks for the note Hippie D.
It was cool to hear that so many great acts fell out of the old days around your area. Do movies like Trainspotting and Formula 51 (both with Robert Carlisle) represent accurate looks into the music/youth/drug subculture today. Quadraphenia gave me a great reference for the stages of musical development in the UK...Seems like the 80's in the USA all started in the UK many years earlier.
Are there remnants of that scooter-riding two-tone scene?

Well...I would like to see the fan club get access to unreleased Wall of Voodoo material and release it somehow. I think a decent sized fan club would be a good market for limited Wall of Voodoo releases, setting us up for something similar to what "Wire Mail Order" did for Wire during the late 90's (when they were broken up and releases on a large scale were not commercially viable).

Voodoo actually recorded some video with Jamie Morgan/Cameron McVey for a show called London Bridge at Ewarts studio in Wandsworth,London. I think they did versions of Tomorrow and Mex R, the show got cut up and used as segments for MTV's Cutting Edge series. I think I'm right in saying that this was with the complimentary black eyes and bruising accquired in a boozer next to Mike's Cafe in Notting Hill.

Does anyone remember the "3-D Devo" closed-circuit TV concert from Hollywood just before Halloween 1982?(This was somehat before pay per view. WOV was the opening act. I asked them about it a few months later . They thought it sucked but I thought it was damned great. Devo's backing tapes were all out of sync and their set fell apart. Devo were pretty much over at that point. "Peek a Boo" didn't really enhance their reputation. But Wall of Voodoo KILLED that night. I have an awful quality tape of that performance and wish I could find a watchable one. Them was the days. Mucker

Anyone know different.As I said before, I carried the fan club card around with me for nearly 20 years in my wallet,well not the same one(wallet).It now resides proudly(in plastic) on my wall next to a 85 Sammystown, and a 82 Call of the west promo posters(which I had laminated to preserve them.I still have my 1985 Sammystown tour shirt, but it has shrunk over the years, going to get repro on new shirt.Am I the only one who still has a membership card?.I think it is a great idea to re-use it.I guess we should get the nod from Stan and Chas, Bruce seems ok with it all.Being a dabbler in writing,maybe I can do a WOV history booklet.We could do a fan club t-shirt.Hippie Dave

I can't believe somebody could have so much great stuff about WOV. I've just started transferring all my old vinyl to CD but it takes so long I've just been selectign the best songs off each album. I just got to 7 days in Sammystown and realised I can't pick out the best tracks because they were all so great. What an album of amazing variety. The most enjoyable thing about listening to this album is the memory of the party my brother and I had a couple of days after 7 Days came out. We put it on at the start of the night, and when it finished somebody yelled to put it on again, and again, and again, and in the end it was the only album that got played all night. What amazes me is there are so few scratches on it, especially considering how much alcohol was being downed. Anyway great memories and a great album.

As for a name for the fan club . . . would we be able to use "Dog's Life"? If we're taking up the fan club idea, how about using the original name? The scan that Dave provided of his original membership card got me to thinking about this. Kind of a link to the past, in a way.
Maybe the scan of the card could be cleaned up, and new information put on it (e-mail address, maybe change "official" to "unofficial" if need be) and put up on the fan club page. It could be both a graphic element and a card that members could print off if they wanted to, just for the fun of it. Would we get in trouble using the original "Dog" illustration? It would be cool if we could keep as many original elements as possible (but then, I like to preserve elements of the past).
Just my thoughts.

can anyone help me to get CDs (or CD-R copies) of the

OK here's a report:
We are moving steadily along with a membership of 22 Vood-oids. (23 counting Decay up there) I am working on a small webpage where I will post updates, etc. and also a little bio section to give all the members a place to tell about themselves. That should be done within 2-3 days. Eventually, I imagine we can find a way to cull all of our rarities, resources and whatnot and begin to spread the wealth. IDEAS ARE ALWAYS WELCOME here, folks - I've never attempted to organize a fan club before.
Keep spreading the word

To be fair, DVD+Rs and -Rs are SUPPOSED to play on more or less any recent DVD player, according to the disc manufacturers, that is...
However, the truth is there will be bugs and incompatibility issues here and there, especially with players that are a few years old.
Also, Hippie Dave, are you not located in England, where the TV standard is PAL and the DVD standard is Region 2? Chances are the DVD is region free but probably NTSC... that may be causing the problem on your end.

Stan should be letting customers know that it's a DVD+R, not a regular DVD. That's not fair. Forgetting cost considerations, I imagine that he'd have trouble finding a legit DVD manufacturer to press the disk, because a large portion of it is bootlegged, even if he's the lead singer on all the tracks.

Hey Hippie Dave,
If your DVD is like mine, it's actually recorded on a DVD+R format disc... which means it may not be compatible with all players. Don't wanna get all technical here but mine plays fine in my cheap Norcent brand DVD player but not on my Panasonic or my Mac Powerbook, both of which are DVD-R (as opposed to +R) recorders.
All these new disc formats! It's all moving too fast!
The guy who put together the disc did a nice job nonetheless... great looking menus. Despite the varying quality of the source material, it's good to have this stuff on a DVD.

My humble suggested course of action for the fan club: first, a website with some method of (voluntarily) collecting e-mail addresses of fans who are potentially interested in an unreleased WOV music cd. Second, one spam mailing to all the fans who did not respond to the fan club website, whose e-mail addresses we can gather from this forum or anywhere else on the internet where people express an interest in WOV. Third, present the number of names we have to the WOV guys. If it's a number that can justify an inexpensive box set release, then ask them to allow one of us to work on that for them. If it is a small number, then ask them to allow us to host the unreleased WOV demos/tracks at Toby's website.

The songs are posted under two different names, but it's the same guy -- Jeffrey Berenfeld. I don't know him; we have no connection. And I doubt he even knows who Andy Prieboy is.

Comments:
Toby here, again -
Thank you all so much for the kind words. For thoses of you new to the program... let me present my WOV resume.
I am a graphic artist by trade. meaning, for the time being I am being employed to create album covers, cd covers, t-shirt designs, flyers, posters, video boxes, etc. I have done over three years work with the rock band Danzig doing cd layout, tshirts, tour pass's and a trillion other things that a fledging rock band would need. Don't worry, because I worked for them does not mean I worship satan or even really like the music they put forth. if you don't believe me, look on the live album or the reissues or Satan's Child. I have a graphic design credit on both. I also did all the graphics on the Samhain box set.
I did employ Marc, along with Sheldon and Marc's wife Freddy, to do the music for Elegant's Angels #2. #1 was by some guy named Kitty Mouse. Interestingly enuff that is the same name of Andy Prieboy's cat, who also makes an appearance in Elegant's Angels #1, Andy not the cat, with his then girlfriend Rita D'Albert.
I've been collecting WOV bootlegs for about twenty years. Ever since the night I inadvertantly recorded the radio all through a WOV show in Frankfurt Germany at the Batcshkapf. I even interviewed Andy and gang after the show. When I heard that the tape was all static as IU played it in the car... I cried for days. I was ready when Stan came through later that year on the Mosquito tour. Which is also the show he just put out on cd on CDbaby.com.
I've interviewed Andy about ten times, Richard Mazda, and Marc.
I retooled the discography as well.
As far as the unsavoury bits... that has nothing to do with WOV. Also remember that Voodoo has a history with unsavoury bits. Nightdreams, Dr. Caligari, Untamed Cowgirls, etc...
This isn't a campaign speech here. It is just to let you all know where I am coming from. It is really up to the boys in the band to decide if they even want to let us do this at all.

P.S. I have nothing to do with that Residents thing. There is another band called Toby Dammit and there is also the Fellini film from which I chose my moniker.

Well I agree, Toby is the popular choice for various reasons, and i cannot see the band objecting,as after all their music is not really available at the moment, as it should be and we should come together as a collective (like the borg).I have some UK gig tickets somewhere, and you all probably remember my Wall of Voodoo fan club card appearing on here a while ago, which I still had in my wallet.Hippie Dave, England.

I would also nominate Mr. Dammitt, because although he runs, or used to run, a porno business that some would describe as unsavoury, he also not only seems to have provided Marc with some kind of musical employment, he also presented the soundtrack to Elegant Angels as a download on his site, which if it isn't by Andy Prieboy should be. Also he gets credits on Resident's cds so a) his musical taste would appear to be beyond reproach b) he has contacts and a certain experience in the music biz, all qualities mister ill-informed anonymous would appear to be unaware of.

Toby here -
WOW!! That is pretty cool of someone to even THINK about nominating me! I have been hanging back and waiting to see what happens here before I open my big mouth. All of the things that you said are true though and I have been talking to the powers that be about getting something off the ground... Hopefully they are talking amongest themselves and are making their decision. Whatever they decide, we should respect their wishes and stand by their decision. I think we should start compiling stuff anyway. So if anyone has any flyers, original pics, used ticket stubs or anything else... let's start sending them in. Try to scan them at 300dpi, but save them as jpg's so they ain't so big. You can send anything you like to tobydammit@earthlink.net. Then if this does not get going, we can always find a home for it all on the site here.

About the WOV fan club/unreleased tracks thing. We need a president for our new fan club. I think it should be Toby Dammit, if he's willing. Why, you ask? Because he knew Marc, and is still in contact with Andy and Sheldon. The WOV guys might feel more comfortable releasing unreleased tracks to him to make available to us, because they know that he is not the kind of guy who will hoarde them, and then put them up on ebay as a bootleg or something.
Oh yeah, and I nominate myself for club enforcer....i'll put the smack down, and whatnot.

Stan to Chas: Hey there! You're right about all this Chas...get smart and espeacially Yogi Bear's Rhythm Ace...I am compelled to tell the whole story here for our readers.
In 1975 I met drummer Charlie Butler and we played some gigs together in Whittier at a dive bar (i think it was called the Three Little Pigs..kinda of a barnyard decor...) with another guit player friend Franco Landi, who was a virtual jukebox of songs. Most of the time we just follwed Franco's lead and played covers for a crowd of drunks and crooks...
Charlie's father turned out to be THE Daws Butler, partner to Stan Freberg.from Bennie and Cecil..(Daws was Bennie..) Daws Butler was the voice of all the Hanna Barbera cartoon characters too like Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound and even Capt. Crunch. Also he worked with Jay Ward on The Bullwinkle series and did so many voices and stuff along with his writing its hard to say it all here.
Ok...now here we go..
It was my habit at this time to go over to the Butler's house and visit with Charlie and play music in his father's VO studio. (footnote: Daws also taught voices and acting at this time in his house and his prize student was li'10 year old Nancy Cartwright...now.. ta dah!...Bart Simpson...) anyway....
I would kinda slide quietly into the living room when it seemed cool.. where Daws had an old wurlitzer organ there... and sitting on top of it was THIS BOX with the name RHYTHM ACE - KALAMAZOO, MICH. emblazoned on the front, with buttons on it with names like MAMBO-SAMBA-WESTERN-BOSSA etc... I'd turn it on and whoa!...RYHTHMS and BEATS...and with a knob to make them go REAL FAST..almost faster than you could take it in...I'd press three buttons at once and get a MAMBOSSAROCKINBEGUINEZOOT! beat...???? huh??!...cool..Clickty Clackety CLICKITY CLACK!!!! boom slap!.
On one of these days Daws caught me! and got real pissed at me..(he could be fairly testy with the kids..) He shouted angrily,..
"Stan..STOP!STOP!!PLEASE!!.I cannot STAND this anymore! You are driving me crazy with that thing! Why don't you TAKE it home and get it outa here. Its yours. Just please STOP NOW! and Stay out of MY LIVING ROOM!!!"...
I was pretty startled and apologized but ...hey...he meant it so I took it. ACE had now been passed to a new generation. Re-born and re-plugged into a world of BIG AMPS and STOMP BOXES...when I got home and plugged that ACE into my twin reverb...WHOA! it shook the walls!
The next year when I had made some demos of some new ideas with it..WARGASAM, INVISIBLE MAN, BONGO BEATNIKS, LIGHT YOUR HAIR ON FIRE, and stuff from my soundtrack experiments and failed employment in this fiels at the time..(i.e. "acme soundtrax") etc..I MET MARC..and played him my stuff with ACE. this was 1977 i think...BRUCE jumped on and then CHAS and then JOE. We was all tight with ACE!
WELL..Wall of Voodoo got going that year and Ace stayed with us for the whole time through the next several years. SO....
When you hear Mexican Radio etc.....listen for a bit of Yogi, Huckleberry and Bennie, Freberg and Butler and Cecil the sea-sick sea serpent......cuz that's the very same machine.
Long live ACE! hey Chas do you have him? Where is he?...

i have a question that i can not find the answer to. what model drum machine was used in the early wall of voodoo days? i love that sound. my dad was in a los angeles group in the 80's called "the conservatives", and they had all those same old cheesey drum sounds. All i can remember of it, was that it was a roland, and they called it "little ricky", Like from I Love Lucy. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I still to this day consider wall of voodoo to be one of the most interesting and original bands ever. i go to all kinds of underground shows in los angeles, and nothing compares, even now. thanks, gil

I always felt Call Box was THE song to play for the uninitiated. It's so damn catchy and still so unique. Of course, that hasn't stopped my 'friends' from not getting it. Usually, I make them listen to it again extra loud so that that crackling keyboard makes the speakers hum. Damn, do I love that song!

Riiiiiiight... I don't understand what THAT is all about, but there's obviously some ninny in our midst. Nothing all that new about that. Cheers to you and have fun, randomly making everyone angry around the web. Perhaps it will lend some focus to your life.
Anyway, this "Call Box" video was very home movie-ish. The whole group, all looking very young, prowling around an abondonned-looking California apartment building, sometimes up on the roof at sunset, sometimes playing instruments at staring strangely into the camera.
Parts of the video included Stan lying on the hallway floor, the camera shot capturing his chest and head as he sang, looking as if the camera person was stratling him and filming down the length of the hallway as Stan lies, helpless, beneath.
I really had just walked in and caught the last half or so of the video, so I can't really say what the whole clip was like. But, in all, it seemed very frantic and minimalist, everything shot in one take. It was very reministent of early Police videos, in that it wasn't necessarily planned and, therefore, not so much a COMMERCIAL for the band (as so many videos were and are)... just some folks with an interest in film and a good song to document.
I saw it at my friend's house, so I'll probably never catch it again. But, it was on that VH-1 "All Request" show, so we at least know that they have it on file. To show what a dork I am, I was yelling and jumping around while it played and my friends were asking "Who the hell is this?...What else did they do?"
Their loss, I suppose.
Someone sould hit up Stan et al. for some details about this, sometime. Good stuff.
Cheers and good lives to all.

Some people who insist that they know about such things say vinyl is superior to CD's. If you do find the LP ,it shouldn't be too difficult to get someone to put it on CD fer ya. Mucker

Toby again -
At Andy's show last night he was under the impression that Chas was gonna be there. he did Business of Love and was slated to do Far Side if Chas was indead there, but no one came forth from the audience. He called out to see if he was there and someone in the back yelled out "Yeah!" and he thought it didn't really sound like Chas so he asked him what was the name of that girl he was seeing in France. When the guy blurted out the wrong name Andy said "That's not Chas, Chas doesn't like girls..."
What happened to ya man? It could have be amazing?
Andy also played some parts of Dance You Fuckers mixed in with a Jude song called On The Dance Floor, for the first encore...

with the music that is currently on the airwaves these days, i often find myself continually listening to my wall of voodoo discs. unfortunatley, i have never had the opporunity to hear anything from dark continent. i know that its hard to find, but i look forward to the day when i am able to score it.. it will be as if it's a new release for me. i can then sit and listen, thinking of the boyz as if they were still here making that awesome sound that no has been able to emulate.. i know the lineup had changed throughout the years, but i'll always know that Marc, Joe, Bruce, Chas, Stan, Andy, and Ned will forever hold a constant place in my musical vault and daily medication..
the closest i ever came to a live voodoo show was from "urgh a music war" which got me hooked on Bruces's bassline in "back in flesh". to this day, it remains one of my favorties. remember the pier when the man comes up and says" telephone call for Wall of Voodoo". you guys had so much style...you made it look easy...

For any Voodoo fans in L.A.
From the L.A. Weekly:
"Andy Prieboy, Jude at the Knitting Factory.
What the hell has Andy Prieboy been up to? Lots. The big news is that his heralded musical, White Trash Wins Lotto, will be mounted at UCLA next February, or as the man himself puts it, “Axl goes to college.” He’s just finished a novel with humorist Merrill Markoe called Psycho Ex Game, due next summer, and he quit a five-pack-a-day cigarette habit. To celebrate “finishing that goddamn book,” he’s sitting down at “a real keyboard” for one of his evenings of songs and stories, backed by Devo drummer David Kendrick and four operatically trained singers, plus Naked Trucker Dave Gruber as host and White Trash member and Beat the Geek host Blaine Capatch. And when Andy Prieboy sits down at a keyboard, it’s pure enchantment, mucho bon mots, and even a tear or two. And what will he be wearing? “My typical overstated elegance. Fun but funereal. Something dark and tight to accent my 6’ 1” frame and girlish 28-inch waistline.” "

Hello Folks, a sad day.
Johnny Cash And June Carter influenced me and so many countless others, its truly hard to take in. We really won't be seeing their
like again - ever.
I 've printed the lyrics to one of Johnny's first songs here. Its one of the first ones I learned to play when I started writing songs
myself. Simple, to the heart, from the gut. I've tried to think of more to say here but its hard. There's just so much of my life that they
touched, and how often I've thought about them, and what an inspiration the both of them have been throughout my own life. That won't stop of course.
Rest In Peace John and June. We loved you and your music and thank you for it and the humanity you both brought into a cold, cruel
world. And its without a doubt, your spirits will continue to inspire as long as "that old wheel" spins 'round, and beyond. Celebrate
these lives folks. They truly were a gift to us all.
with love and appreciation -
Stan Ridgway
"I Still Miss Someone" J. Cash
At my door the leaves are falling
A cold wild wind has come
Sweethearts walk by together
And I still miss someone
I go out on a party
And look for a little fun
But I find a darkened corner
because I still miss someone
Oh, no I never got over those blues eyes
I see them every where
I miss those arms that held me
When all the love was there
I wonder if she's sorry
For leavin' what we'd begun
There's someone for me somewhere
And I still miss someone

Like John in Montreal said, he united a wide cross section of people. I saw him in concert three times, I believe. The most interesting was was at the Pantages Theatre on Hollywood Blvd. in early January 1994. In attendance were old people (including my then 85-year-old grandmother), young people, regular country fans, Hollywood hipsters, movie stars, TV stars, rocks stars, wannabe rock stars, etc.
At one point in the evening, Johnny said, "I have many friends here tonight. One of them is a great actor, comedian and songwriter Morey Amsterdam ["The Dick Van Dyke Show"], who co-wrote songs like 'Drinking Rum & Coca Cola.'" Out of all the people there, he mentions Amsterdam. I thought it was kind of touching that he ignored the L.A. pecking order and simply called out to the guy he wanted to call out to.

EVERYONE appreciated the Man in Black.

As I understand it, you seem to regard Good Times as the only weak link on Dark Continent, which I found puzzling, as I really love that song. I listen mostly to CotW I guess, firstly because it's my introduction album, and secondly: DC might be a compilation great songs, but CotW is a feeling, if you understand.

I walked into the Best Buy in Thousand Oaks today, and heard a ringing phone over their p.a. system. "Strange", I thought..."that sounds like the phone on 'Granma's House'!" Seconds later, I was hearing a horse race being called, won by Kentucky Counselor. I could not believe that "End of An Era" was being heard by everyone in the store! I stayed at the Best Buy until the entire WOV CD had been played. I wish I had been there for "Ring of Fire."

You may now go back to the brown-nosing and babble. Give the people what they want, right?
In the end, it's amusing that you're so threatened by me. What small, fragile worlds you inhabit.

In response to one of the last few RELEVANT posts, I'd recommend "Tse Tse Fly" for Mark's dazzling style. I love how he sneaks in at the beginning and then blasts away later. "End Of An Era" impressed me, too. Oh - and "Invisible Man".
Stanard - I have always wondered why "Invisible Man" never earned an official release. It's one of your (their?) best.

He used the Roman spelling when he engaged in a triumvirate. Didn't you know that you lowly little worm?

Did Todd once say he worked for "Sleaze" Saydian? That would account for a lot.

Dear Mr. Romero,
Firstly, I must implore you to please learn to spell your own first name (C-E-S-A-R). When you were alive, it was said that you'd go to the opening of a tuna can. Now that you're dead, you're so desperate for attention you're trying to lure the living to your graveside for a little cucaracha? I'm not interested, and I'm sure Burgess ain't either. After all, he had hotties like Paulette Goddard when they were still in their prime, so he'd have no need for a pathetic old queen such as yourself. Do yourelf a favor and search out the bones of your old boyfriend Ty Power or just lay there and be happy you still have a moustache.

IIRC, Black was in the habit of recording live, directly to two tracks, with no overdubbing. A) Is this true? and B) Did he do it this way this time?
With jealousy,

Dear Contortionist,
No, I haven't. But, from what I've read, this is known as a Drywall Special on the Venice Boardwalk and other areas in SoCal.
Yours in perversion,
