You'll know cute-n'-cuddly Tom Bosley from his much-loved appearances as "Scrappy Pappy" in the long-running NBC TV series Bum Fighter! - but did you know he's also a keen collector of obscure rock music-type vinyl? That's right, subscribers! And he likes nothing better here in happy retirement on th' Isle O' Foam© than to mosey along the beach, looking for albums what have washed up from the wreckage of distant sinking continents. Like yours.
Today is something of a bumper harvest - can th' Four Or Five Guys© identify the long-playing LPs he's uncovering down on romantic Bleach Bottle Bay? If you can, deposit hint in comments! Don't name artist/albums outright! Demonstrate arcane knowledge of modern-type music to confreres with cunning allusion!
Pssst! - as this is a particularly not easy treasure hunt, here's another clew for you all - Steely Dan connexion! Oh boy!
This post (one of a series of IoF© Heritage Pieces ideal for display in den or lobby) made feasible thru th' patronage of The Sister Hortense Home For Whores, Cementville, ND. "It's not a whorehouse - it's a whore home!"
Anyone disregarding rules will be taken out and shot in front of their families. Harsh? I think not.
ReplyDeleteJ** H****r plays drums, and sings
ReplyDeleteHere's another clue for you all, the walrus was Herman Hesse.
ReplyDeleteI have no idea what you're gassing about.
DeleteGassing ... gassing ... ehh ...
DeleteHad Taco Bell for lunch.......Oy!
DeleteBabs sticks it to th' 4/5G© with not one but two masterclass clews!
ReplyDelete(I can almost forgive you for not turning in your assignment, Babs. Almost.)
If I thought it was Charlie and the Pep Boys, it would be smart not to mention it, but that's a Nils Lofgren connexion, not a Fecker and Beggin' strip. In other wyrds, nope. And yet, the foto reminds me very much of Maui. Aloha, Joe!
ReplyDeleteI am disappoint. Only one out of four or five has a clue?
ReplyDeleteIn fairness to the four or five, I was in living in Cambridge, Massachusetts ('69 -'71) where B**d G**e started, and were considered by critics to be "The Next Big Thing", which as we all know is "the kiss of death"
DeleteIt doomed them to an obscurity even darker than The Ultimate Spinach. I've seen the movie - their song is easily the best thing in it. The first ten minutes - the band performing in a club - makes you think this is going to be a lost 'sixties classic, but the whole thing falls apart after that.
Delete(I'm wondering where Psychfan is - he's normally first in with the answer for these things).
I recognize the one Babs has identified, as well as the TV movie lysergic freakout (that somehow also has a homey feel), but I'm having trouble placing the third one, which nonetheless seems to be the nicest design of the three.
ReplyDeleteOK, then - let'ss gass about Robert.
Delete(Did I really go that far under the Farq radar?)
My radar is set pretty high these days. Your clew is quite brilliant, and you and Babs are joint winners of the Grand Prize!
DeleteAnd "don’t ever let anyone tell you that Rock & Roll doesn’t prepare you for a successful career in both organizational and personal transformation."
You can't shame me into paying any attention to the Bosstown Sound.
DeleteNyaaa-ha-haaaaa!!!
DeleteJ** H********n plays guitar and pianner.
ReplyDeleteThis is heartbreakingly close. And yet so very wrong. But you dropped a comment, Huge, so I love ya, big guy. Gimme a big wet one.
DeleteDid I say J** H********n? I meant to say J*** S*****n. Stupid Spellcheck.
DeleteThat's much more like it! Still hopelessly out to lunch, though.
DeleteOut to lunch? I've got a 20 Dollars Bill that says I'm on the right track.
DeleteYou've clearly identified the band, Hugh, but as a clew for others to follow it leaves something to be desired. A goggle search for J*** S*****n gets us to Journals For The Sewing Industry.
DeleteSo you're getting our Grand Third Prize, a luxury stainless steel snack tray with genuine teak-effect handles that you'll be proud to centerpiece at your next buffet brunch!
Okay, I think we're all just about done with this now. It's Bead Game, their two albums and the FoamFeatured© antecedently soundtrack to People Next Door, which has a few versions of their best song, Sweet Medusa, which is damn near anybody's best song.
ReplyDeleteIf any youse bums wants - ax, and they shall be thine.
I'm axin I'm axin

DeleteRick, this is your personal link, for your use only. Anyone else clicking it will be breaking State and Federal Law and can expect to be visited by the Relevant Authorities who will enforce Due Process resulting in Imprisonment, Fine, or the Death Penalty depending on the Judge's Verdict. Harsh? Get real, people! Wake up and smell the chicory!
thanks bunch hope you don't regret it when you read my comment on Bruce but felt the need to vent when I see his name
