No love for The Rowboats, alas. Hey, Tony!

Hey Jeff! The Rowboats thing doesn't even have a cover -- it's just track titles typed on a sticker ... so not photo-worthy.

Appreciate that link, Gary, but a part of me wants this music to exist solely as an audio experience, lacking context beyond that which Tony's show provides.

Don't worry, Jeff: none of this stuff really exists.

OMG! I remember this radio show that they use here (Ronald Reagan)!
It scared the crap out of me when it came out.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 12:31pm

It was a scary radio show purporting that Reagan actually believed in Armageddon and would endeavor to bring it about.

@Rich in Washington
WBAI in New York aired a radio documentary that exposed Reagan's relationship with fundamental Christians and their end-times infatuation. It was scary as hell.

The track on now ("I'm with You") is a cover of an Arthur Lee/Love song.

talking about Arthur Lee/Love do you rate (like) any of his post Forever Changes albums?

like this Syd Barrett/Kinks like songs via cheeky cockney stuff like Chas and Dave un Ian Dury!
Avatar 1:33pm
Tony Coulter:

@ Ben's Vertigo: Not too much, actually, no. I have little love for later Love.
Avatar 1:34pm
BEN'S VERTIGO:

he seemed to lose the production quality of his first 3 albums? Did he (Arthur Lee) put it all up his nose?
Avatar 1:35pm
Tony Coulter:

... but it's all relative, I suppose.
Avatar 1:40pm
Tony Coulter:

The absence of Bryan MacLean is a big part of the problem with later Love, methinks....
Avatar 🥁 Swag For Life Member 1:41pm
Uncle Michael:

I do think the best Love has a fine balance between Bryan and Arthur.
Avatar 1:42pm
Tony Coulter:

"Bubbles in My Beer" (on now) is a Bob Wills tune.

i think the musicians' dog was in the studio at the end of that last cut!
Avatar 1:48pm
BEN'S VERTIGO:

yeh - I think there are good tracks on the later albums but the problem is that there are too many average ones, and the records seemed rough and lacking the polished productions of the earlier albums - did Elektra just drop them after FC?

Tony Coulter:

RE dogs: What was that Pink Floyd movie featuring them with guest dog vocalist? "Live at Pompeii"? That scene made a big impression on me ages ago....

Song on now is a Hank Williams cover

By the by, I wouldn't know who did these country songs originally if not for my friend the internet. Most definitely not my area of expertise.
