Jezza waxed loquacious anent his secret passion, relaxing poolside whilst [grammar - Ed.] Kreemé [eighteen my ass - Ed.] served signature oyster hoof n' knob cheese smoothies!
FT3 Jezza baby! Th' Clarkster! Lookin' goood!
JC THE ARSE ON THAT! (turns to watch Kreemé, falls into pool)
FT3 (laughs) Ha ha!
JC (spouts water) Firm enough to tent a manly trouser at fifty paces!
FT3 (laughs) Ha ha! So, Jezza, which you brung us some albums?
JC Absolutely. They're by The Blodwyn Pigs.
 |
| Jezza and th' Hamster, in happier times! |
FT3 No they're not. It's The Dream Syndicate. Their frankly fantastic run of albums from 2017 to 2022, where we were rewarded with stylistic invention and creative evolution without compromising the core Syndicate values.
JC (blank look) I'll just get Kreemé to give my underparts a brisk rubdown with a rough towel ... (sprints away, leaving Hanna-Barbera whiz lines in air)
Today's deliverables are four bafflingly under-the-radar latter day classics from this superswell band: How Did I Find Myself Here, These Times, The Universe Inside, and Ultraviolet Battle Hymns & True Confessions. No serious collection of resurgent Paisley Underground music is complete without these swell albums, which will surprise and delight both casual listener and seasoned psychedelic enthusiast alike!

Wow!! I'm first!!
ReplyDeleteI'm second!
ReplyDeleteDrinking Green Tea in anticipation.Used to be black!
ReplyDeleteYou're third!
DeleteI've no idea who TV's Sir Jeremy of Clarkson is - should I bother to search?
ReplyDeleteD in California, who does have a TV, but no Netflix sub
Listen, I enjoyed Mad Magazine without understanding the pop culture references - now it's your turn!
DeleteI will, however, point out that for those of us "in on the joke", this piece is a laff riot! (laughs)
DeleteD in California. I’m pretty sure that Clarkson is one of FT3s Reo Speedwagon buddies, they get together with Sundar Pichai and swap bootleg recordings, probably.
DeleteCoincidence, or am I telescopic (pathic, Ed.), for the last couple of days I’ve been playing The Universe Inside album. I don’t know the other three albums though, thanks in advance.
ReplyDeleteJeremy, he is that guy who got bought out of Top Gear because he hit someone for not bringing him the exact food he ordered. And now he has bought a farm because of tax reasons, He IS an arse, a bully.
ReplyDeleteJeremy is one of the English boys' names that sound the Class Klaxon:
DeleteCosmo
Hugo
Toby
Tristran
Kim(berly)
Kit (for Christopher)
... others may occur to me. Or you.
Henry Fillmore.
DeleteAlso CA, also clueless about Clarkson, although aware there's a Top Gear show about "motoring." Another baffling difference with our distant British cousins; we've got a dozen shows about rebuilding old cars but no shows about driving them.
DeleteCooling to my Posh Name theme: womens' Class Klaxon names mostly end with an A:
DeleteAnna (top posh name)
Annabella ("Bella")
Arabella
Portia
Pandora
Samantha
Clarissa
Belinda ("Linda" is not posh)
Helena (never "Helen")
Antonia
Tessa
Philomena
Sasha
India (no, really)
Clara (etcetera)
We've got similar class-based naming; Americans wouldn't say "post," though...preppy, Upper West Side....WASP. Also we have race based naming. My family is Italian-American, my ex-wife was Mexican-American. We told my mom we were going to name my son "Jesus" (hay-soos....) and there was this long....very long....silence as mom digested the news. We were just winding her up and let her off the hook a few minutes later but she was trying to figure out how say something without being culturally insenstive and just couldn't make it work PLUS having to tell her own born in San Giacomo di Veglia mother the name. Jeez, I've been a bad son.... Similarly, my pal Sandy says she took flak growing up in West Oakland with a "white" name right out of the musical "Grease."
Delete"Posh," not "post." Also....are posh names in Australia called "posh", and are they they same names as in England?
DeletePaul Fussell's book 'Class: A Guide Through the American Status System' is the definitive writings on the subject.
DeleteThere is absolutely nothing posh in Australia, and they only have two names - Sheila and Bruce.
DeleteNot true ...you forgot about their Cousins Steve & Sharon. Oh ...& some Melbourne Cup Day, Yacht Regatta & Country Club Fellas want a word wi' ya.
DeleteThe Melbourne Cup Day, Yacht Regatta & Country Club Fellas - are they the ones allowed to use flatware and crockery?
DeleteThere's something about Clarkson that irritates me.
ReplyDeleteIs it the way he keeps humping your leg?
DeleteIf he even dreamed of that, he'd wake up singing castrato.
DeleteThis is a great line! Provenance?
DeleteHere is the link. This is the link. The link is here.

ReplyDeleteI don't think anyone will have the nerve to deprive you of the one-two punch of first and last comment!

DeleteDamn right I'm right! You OWN the last comment!
