Crosseyed & Painless- The Talking Heads
This blog was feeling neglected so I swam through the depths of my mind for something cool.
Talking Heads. 80s suits aside, they rocked. You may think "oh burning down the house" yeah right, but they were really ahead of their time rock n rollers. Get the Sand in the Vaseline set and enjoy some of the not so well known numbers like this one. The music is interesting and unique. No cookie cutter shit here. I mean, who sounds like the Talking Heads? who did they sound like? Exactly.

Well put, old bean. Oh those Northeastern art farts, they made some interesting music and it stands to this day. I used to have a LP of their stuff which I played a lot. Nothing too profound there, that is just what I did.
What the fuck is going on already? I'd give my left nut for a real job. Hell to the yes, I should write about Jon Spencer. I'll probably select a track from Now I Got Worry which I used to have on vinyl and played the unholy hell out of. Now I just gotta decide if "Rocketship" or "Eyeballin" is the greatest song ever by JSBX.
I was always partial to "Wail" although Rocketship had more of a melodical quality to it, unlike most Jon Spencer Music.
By the way, you ever listen to Boss Hog? Jon and his wife Christina's band? Very good stuff
