Too much Jack Black hate going around here lately. This whole album is great, and I still have this song randomly pop in my head 20 some years later.
Danny Carey will part of what many consider the most talented group of musicians currently getting ready for touring. He will be in Louisville on 12/10 for a recently-added new show. Tix on sale now ... see beat-tour link below !!
The Cincinnati show on 10/26 is SOLD OUT !!
This should be pretty incredible music !!
HOME - BEAT TOUR
Former King Crimson members ADRIAN BELEW and TONY LEVIN band together with guitar virtuoso STEVE VAI and explosive Tool drummer DANNY CAREY for the first time

I have been listening to some stuff from my high school days but the last week or so I have been binge listening to Huey Lewis and the News for some strange reason. 🤣
It was Bobcat Golthwaite who said, “ if you see Huey walking down the street, do you say, Is that rock star Huey Lewis or do you say Hey, I think that guy is friends with my dad”.
I think I can top that. I have the Little River Band's greatest hits in my car. Great band that few today have heard of.
I got a book about Miles Davis, John Coltrane, and Bill Evans for my birthday. In it the author referenced the composer George Russell and his Concerto for Billy the Kid. I'd never heard of him or his composition. So,
15 years later, there'd be Soft Machine, King Crimson, and prog rock.

My favorite guitar tone:
One of the few Rock Era guitarists who consistently play with time. Sometimes lagging the beat. Sometimes pushing it.
Digging the new Sturgill album. I generally don’t like country music at all, but have a soft spot for more traditional sounding country. It’s not a genre I want to listen to everyday, but if fits certain moods very well.
Some songs sound like his old stuff which I dig. Some of his newer albums were not my cup of tea.
I like the acid rock album he made in 2019, but know I am in the minority. I thought several of the songs were good … after you sat through 90 seconds of essentially noise. His first two albums are my favorite of his because it has that 70s country sound.
I totally agree on the 1st album. It had a Waylon Jennings vibe to me. I think the acid rock album required the acid. 🤣
🤣🤣 at this whole concept. Every song is cracking me up; that gag never gets old. I'm dying to play this at a dinner party to see how long before someone notices.
I’m gonna be unpopular in here, so just ignore aside from the few hip hop guys…
But the West is back. Thanks Kenny. My pinnacle is early 90s, smooth, g funk.
A simple formula of some, or all, of these ingredients:
The unmistakable west coast siren/synth, fart bass, ebony beauties, a smooth or often female hook, and just easy cruising sounds…poor/wack simpleton lyrics, often centered around weed, bravado, and summertime. Typically a hoopty ride present if there’s a video. (maybe some occasional gang/murder related talk nbd) 😻
The best era. Summer jams, as we called them.
Here’s a few non-popular you’ve probably never heard, and if you have, you’re my people. 🙌🏿
Starter pack. Long overdue. Avg age of these songs aside from the Chicano is 25+ yrs old. West coast renaissance happening rn, so I’m gonna be here for a minute.

The first one had serious 90's vibes. Haven't been into rap in SO MANY YEARS. My cut off was the 90s. The older I get I prefer the 80s stuff but I could maybe get down with that. I'm more old school Run, Rakim, Beasties, Pete Rock and the like.
Beato is awesome. I love putting his breakdowns on and just watching one after another.
This won't be most people's jam but as I've gotten older, I've gotten more into metal instead of calming down. I love when you've got two singers, one doing clean vocals, the other doing harsh. I go in stages. I was really into the Americana thing for awhile but again, for whatever reason, I've gone headfirst back into metal.
LaMP will be at Headliners in Louisville on October 12, 2024, if interested:
