curious to learn more about the new wave of english country dance music, sounds like a pretty big deal

Is the joke that the fridge only has booze in it? So it's like, a fridge living in the fast lane...?

i think this thread has the best first and second posts of any thread on ILX

1986 for this one, but too horrible not to post here.

There's also Bareback at Big Sky by Poco. Does "bareback" mean anything else besides what i already know?

Bowling for Bitcoins (Lee626), Friday, 5 January 2018 12:20 (eight years ago)

tbf that's got a horse on it, unlike the one before.

Whiney Houston (Tom D.), Friday, 5 January 2018 12:25 (eight years ago)

i had no idea that was a horseback riding term. I'm such a city boy.

Bowling for Bitcoins (Lee626), Friday, 5 January 2018 12:28 (eight years ago)

actually i didn't even notice that was a horse; i thought it was somebody spreadeagled on the floor

Bowling for Bitcoins (Lee626), Friday, 5 January 2018 12:30 (eight years ago)

It was Poco's logo so it might still have nothing to do with horseriding. But Richie Furay was born again so I can't see him participating in anything untoward.

Whiney Houston (Tom D.), Friday, 5 January 2018 12:40 (eight years ago)

Richie was out of the band by the time they adopted the horse logo though (although occasionally rejoining)

Bowling for Bitcoins (Lee626), Friday, 5 January 2018 12:46 (eight years ago)

the horse logo was designed by Phil Hartman incidentally - his brother was Poco's manager

xp re TCONB:

i'm guessing it's a reference to the moldy prank call:

is your fridge running?
yes.
well you better go catch it!

andrew m., Friday, 5 January 2018 16:46 (eight years ago)

do you have prince albert in a can?

that kinda shit.

andrew m., Friday, 5 January 2018 16:47 (eight years ago)

I just noticed that the syrup on that Head East cover looks kind of like Texas (panhandle toward the viewer). I wonder if that was intentional.

nickn, Friday, 5 January 2018 17:11 (eight years ago)

Oh man, I used to own that Richard Torrance album! "Rio de Janeiro Blue" is a smooth slice of yacht rock.

lol that cover photo looks straight out of the original Joy of Sex

he looks like he is practiced in the Wiseau method

AdamVania (Adam Bruneau), Friday, 5 January 2018 19:47 (eight years ago)

Thought the cover was sort of a nod to Buckingham Nicks

Razmataz - Everybody eats when they come to my house (Soap Records, 1982)

Righteous wax chaperone, rotating Wingdings (Doctor Casino), Friday, 26 January 2018 05:14 (eight years ago)

From 1978, the amusing named Trumpetmachine with the painfully titled, "For Flying Out Proud".

Video reach stereo bog (Tom D.), Sunday, 28 January 2018 23:02 (eight years ago)

Huh, had not heard of Trumpetmachine before. Woody Shaw, Kenny Wheeler and Jon Faddis. Sounds like it might have been a less successful coattail rider of the Supersax concept?

IF (Terrorist) Yes, Explain (man alive), Monday, 29 January 2018 02:53 (eight years ago)

No doubt. I find Faddis tedious for various reasons I won't elaborate on right this second.

I have seen the son of Mike Zwerin, who was on Birth of The Cool, I think, play bass a few times. Seems like a pretty nice guy. He is unusual in a jazz context in that, not only does he play electric bass, but he plays it slung real low, a la Paul Simonon or Kris(t) Novoselic, say.

The Sound of the City Slang (James Redd and the Blecchs), Monday, 29 January 2018 03:08 (eight years ago)

That's actually the early '80s but it belongs in 1978.

I Can Feel You Creep Into My Private Life

Never Learn To Mike Love (C. Grisso/McCain), Saturday, 3 February 2018 21:34 (eight years ago)

Hmmmmm, I can't really see a Wet Willie or a Man or a Roger Miller going for that title tbh.

Video reach stereo bog (Tom D.), Saturday, 3 February 2018 21:42 (eight years ago)

“Creepin’ into your private life” maybe

Scam jam, thank you ma’am (Sparkle Motion), Saturday, 3 February 2018 23:07 (eight years ago)

I can almost picture the cover.

Video reach stereo bog (Tom D.), Saturday, 3 February 2018 23:09 (eight years ago)

‘Al Green Explores Your Mind’ veers in that direction.
