What's the appeal of this?
repetitive mediocre lyrics being mumbled in a lousy melody.

Anyone else hear a similarity to one of Kaki King's?

I've always quite enjoyed this, but I can barely make out most of the lyrics. He's a bit mumbly...

Bought this album after hearing this brilliant song…
The rest of it doesn't seem quite up to this level, but maybe it just needs to grow on me more.
Check it out though, it's good.

With that opening, I thought I had stumbled into a Ken Burns documentary.

There is a saying around here that "If you can run a successful restaurant in Toledo, you can be successful anywhere." I don't know why that is, but it might have something to do with the fact that there is a restaurant, fast food joint, cafe, diner or sports bar in about every other corner. Most if it is ok, some is crap, and some is very good. Best BBQ I've ever had came from a place not far from where I live. We also have Tony Packo's of MASH fame. Good stuff.

You're old enough to know better. All my records eventually sounded pretty scratchy, due to improper record handling in my younger days. One thing I noticed when radio converted to CD players was the sudden disappearance of crackle and popping, which surprised me because I had always assumed it was radio static. I figured the DJs surely took good care of their music library and the static was not just scratchy records.
You could tell the popularity of the records we had in my late 60s college station DJ daze by their pops & crackles. More pops/crackles = more DJs playing the album. We'd wear out 4 or 5 Jimi Hendrix, Quicksilver, Who and Stones records in 6 months easy. On the other hand the Carpenters, Petula Clark and Cowsills albums were in pristine condition. |

—you didn't hear it at all. Man, are we ever lucky to live in this day and age. You can listen to Duke Ellington's orchestra in its prime one moment and the Dandy Warhols the next. Pretty cool.
