• 6:27
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 6:29
  SPEAKER_06: Talking to God, leave me alone.
• 6:33
  SPEAKER_06: Um so anyway, to uh today I thought we'd talk about there was something in the news that uh caught me as interesting.
• 6:40
  SPEAKER_06: Um and it was it's music related, and we talked about this a little bit.
• 6:45
  SPEAKER_06: Um and more and more artists are doing this, and I understand why they're doing it.
• 6:50
  SPEAKER_06: Um well, that too, but let me ask you, let me just pose you the question like this.
• 6:58
  SPEAKER_04: Alright.
• 7:00
  SPEAKER_06: If you had to let's see.
• 7:06
  SPEAKER_06: So two artists and if you had to an artist love each other.
• 7:12
  SPEAKER_06: No, no.
• 7:14
  SPEAKER_06: They get together.
• 7:15
  SPEAKER_04: Wait, is this the birds and the beast talk?
• 7:19
  SPEAKER_04: So and a baby song is born.
• 7:21
  SPEAKER_06: So if you if you had to pick the more popular um artist, uh their music, I should say.
• 7:33
  SPEAKER_06: Between these two, who would you say was?
• 7:36
  SPEAKER_06: The more popular.
• 7:38
  SPEAKER_04: The more popular, okay.
• 7:40
  SPEAKER_06: Um the more songs that you could probably do something with.
• 7:45
  SPEAKER_06: David.
• 7:45
  SPEAKER_06: David Bowie.
• 7:47
  SPEAKER_04: Okay.
• 7:47
  SPEAKER_06: ZZ Top.
• 7:52
  SPEAKER_06: It's a tough one.
• 7:53
  SPEAKER_06: That is tough.
• 7:57
  SPEAKER_06: So David Bowie.
• 7:58
  SPEAKER_06: Or ZZ Top.
• 7:59
  SPEAKER_06: And I'll tell you why I'm asking you this here in a second.
• 8:01
  SPEAKER_04: Now, if you're going popularity, I'm not sure you could really go that way because they were both equal almost equally as popular.
• 8:09
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 8:10
  SPEAKER_04: Um I think David Bowie was a little more diverse.
• 8:17
  SPEAKER_06: Yep, for sure, for sure.
• 8:18
  SPEAKER_04: You know, because Z Top, you know, did their thing.
• 8:21
  SPEAKER_04: And they had, you know, 50 plus years of it.
• 8:23
  SPEAKER_06: Yep.
• 8:24
  SPEAKER_04: But I mean they were, you know, they were a rock and roll band.
• 8:27
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 8:27
  SPEAKER_06: So bluesy rock and roll.
• 8:29
  SPEAKER_04: Blues, yeah.
• 8:29
  SPEAKER_06: Yep.
• 8:30
  SPEAKER_06: They had their they had the 80s, which was like huge for them.
• 8:34
  SPEAKER_04: Oh yeah.
• 8:34
  SPEAKER_06: Eliminator, pfft, yeah, but the 80s was huge for David Bowie, too.
• 8:38
  SPEAKER_06: Modern Love, Modern Love, uh, Let's Dance.
• 8:40
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 8:40
  SPEAKER_06: Right?
• 8:41
  SPEAKER_04: Stevie Ray Vaughn on that.
• 8:42
  SPEAKER_06: Right?
• 8:42
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 8:43
  SPEAKER_06: Uh here's why I'm asking.
• 8:45
  SPEAKER_06: Um, because Z Z Top just sold all of the rights to their songs.
• 8:53
  SPEAKER_06: You know, because veteran artists, heritage artists, the older they get, they're they're selling them off.
• 8:58
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 8:59
  SPEAKER_06: Because I mean, they don't have much longer on this planet.
• 9:03
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 9:04
  SPEAKER_06: And why not just get a big payday and enjoy your life?
• 9:07
  SPEAKER_06: I get it.
• 9:08
  SPEAKER_06: Right?
• 9:08
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 9:09
  SPEAKER_04: Well, I mean, ever since uh Dusty died.
• 9:12
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 9:12
  SPEAKER_04: Um, I don't think there's gonna be Z Z Top anymore.
• 9:15
  SPEAKER_06: Well, uh Dusty uh Dusty crowned their hi his guitar tech as his replacement.
• 9:23
  SPEAKER_06: Oh, he did?
• 9:23
  SPEAKER_06: Okay.
• 9:23
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, because he knew that But it's it's still I mean, yeah, I mean he he I'm sure he knows the Zeppelin catalog frontwards and backwards.
• 9:32
  SPEAKER_04: Zeppelin?
• 9:33
  SPEAKER_04: Huh?
• 9:34
  SPEAKER_06: Zeppelin?
• 9:34
  SPEAKER_04: No.
• 9:35
  SPEAKER_06: You just said Zeppelin.
• 9:36
  SPEAKER_06: Did I?
• 9:37
  SPEAKER_06: You mean Z Top?
• 9:38
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 9:38
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah, yeah.
• 9:39
  SPEAKER_06: It's okay.
• 9:40
  SPEAKER_06: I don't know.
• 9:40
  SPEAKER_06: You're reading a Zeppelin book right now, so it's not.
• 9:43
  SPEAKER_04: I was reading the cover.
• 9:44
  SPEAKER_04: I don't know.
• 9:45
  SPEAKER_06: How is that how is that even possible?
• 9:46
  SPEAKER_06: But I if you've noticed in the past few years, Billy Gibbons, the the lead singer of Z Top, has been putting out a lot of solo albums.
• 9:53
  SPEAKER_06: So I think you're probably right.
• 9:55
  SPEAKER_06: I mean, I think Billy Gibbons is gonna be okay on his own.
• 9:58
  SPEAKER_04: Well, he was gonna be fine anyway.
• 9:59
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 10:00
  SPEAKER_04: I'm worried about the drummer.
• 10:01
  SPEAKER_04: Frank Beard?
• 10:02
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 10:02
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 10:03
  SPEAKER_04: The guy without a beard.
• 10:04
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 10:04
  SPEAKER_04: Which is still I'm not worried about him.
• 10:06
  SPEAKER_06: Well, here's the thing.
• 10:07
  SPEAKER_04: Well, he's just gonna do his thing.
• 10:09
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 10:09
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 10:09
  SPEAKER_06: Here's the thing.

• 10:11
  SPEAKER_06: So they sold their song, their catalog.
• 10:14
  SPEAKER_04: Well, who did they sell it to?
• 10:15
  SPEAKER_06: Um please sell it with somebody cool.
• 10:18
  SPEAKER_06: It's like BMG or something like that.
• 10:20
  SPEAKER_06: Like a conglomerate, right?

  SPEAKER_06: Fifty million dollars.
• 10:29
  SPEAKER_06: Which is a lot of money.
• 10:30
  SPEAKER_04: It is a lot of money, but I bet they could have got way more.

• 12:40
  SPEAKER_04: I mean that could have got 50 million alone.
• 12:43
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 12:43
  SPEAKER_04: I mean, they they should have got at least 100 mil to 150 mil.
• 12:48
  SPEAKER_06: At least.
• 12:49
  SPEAKER_06: Because we had talked about this uh before.
• 12:51
  SPEAKER_06: Uh I think when it was Paul Simon.
• 12:56
  SPEAKER_06: Um let me see what Paul Simon sold his for.
• 13:01
  SPEAKER_06: Um sold his song catalog for to Sony for 250 million.
• 13:07
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah, see.
• 13:09
  SPEAKER_06: So I wonder why ZZ Top only went for 50.
• 13:12
  SPEAKER_04: Did they not because they're boys from Texas?
• 13:15
  SPEAKER_06: And they don't need the money, they don't need the money.

  SPEAKER_04: They're they're set for life as is.
• 13:20
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 13:21
  SPEAKER_04: So I mean, it really I don't think it really is.
• 13:23
  SPEAKER_06: But you know what you think about their family, which I think, you know, again,$50 million is a lot of money.
• 13:28
  SPEAKER_04: It is a lot of money.
• 13:29
  SPEAKER_04: But when you're comparing it to Bowie and Paul Simon, they're getting$250 million, and Z Z Tops got a catalog that equals theirs at least.

• 14:57
  SPEAKER_00: Yeah, yeah, you yeah.
• 14:59
  SPEAKER_06: That's but that's I'm pretty.
• 15:03
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 15:04
  SPEAKER_06: Bob Dylan.
• 15:04
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, that's one of my favorite impressions, but my Brian Johnson's pretty good.
• 15:08
  SPEAKER_06: It is.
• 15:08
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 15:08
  SPEAKER_06: Uh but Bob Dylan sold his catalog for$300 million back in December.
• 15:12
  SPEAKER_04: See, that's I I can see that because it's Bob Dylan.
• 15:16
  SPEAKER_06: Right.

  SPEAKER_04: And he wrote songs like Right.
• 15:20
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.

  SPEAKER_04: Wait, isn't his name Robert Zimmerman or something like this?
• 15:26
  SPEAKER_04: Yes.
• 15:26
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah.
• 15:27
  SPEAKER_06: Yep, Robert Zimmerman.
• 15:28
  SPEAKER_06: Um, so I was looking this up just to see who owns it says it was I wonder who owns that catalog.
• 15:38
  SPEAKER_06: It was sound financial advice that McCartney may have come to regret giving on August 14th, 1985, when Michael Jackson purchased the publishing rights to the vast majority of the Beatles catalog for$47 million.
• 15:50
  SPEAKER_06: That was in 85.
• 15:51
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 15:52
  SPEAKER_04: Uh course that was a lot of money back then.
• 15:55
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 15:56
  SPEAKER_06: Uh, and I'm just kind of looking at the article here to see.
• 15:59
  SPEAKER_06: In the years afterwards, that catalog allowed Jackson to remain solvent by serving as collateral for several enormous personal loans that funded his extravagant lifestyle.
• 16:08
  SPEAKER_06: Jackson gave up his remaining interest in the catalog to Sony, one of his primary creditors.
• 16:14
  SPEAKER_06: After his death, Sony took full control of the catalog.
• 16:17
  SPEAKER_06: So Sony owns the Beatles catalog.
• 16:20
  SPEAKER_06: Well, the vast majority.
• 16:22
  SPEAKER_04: But I I don't understand why McCartney doesn't get it back.
• 16:25
  SPEAKER_06: I know.
• 16:26
  SPEAKER_04: Between him and Ringo?
• 16:27
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 16:27
  SPEAKER_04: They should have that catalog.
• 16:29
  unknown: Right.
• 16:29
  SPEAKER_04: And you know, and and John and George's estates.
• 16:32
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 16:33
  SPEAKER_04: Between the four of them, they could own that back.
• 16:35
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 16:36
  SPEAKER_04: You know, easily.
• 16:37
  SPEAKER_04: I'm trying to I'm trying to think if there was because there I thought there was some um I mean, I'm I'm I'm uh I'm weirded out by them selling out to these big music conglomerates.
• 16:47
  SPEAKER_06: Because you know what they're gonna use that music for.
• 16:49
  SPEAKER_06: They're gonna use it to sell things.
• 16:50
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah, exactly.
• 16:51
  SPEAKER_04: It's gonna be an advertising, and which I mean in and of itself is is not evil, but it's like it really should belong to the estates and the people themselves.
• 17:00
  SPEAKER_04: But I mean they're so I mean, if they're selling it themselves, I mean that's one thing, but Okay.
• 17:05
  SPEAKER_06: I don't know.
• 17:06
  SPEAKER_06: So Bob Dylan, we mentioned$300 million.
• 17:09
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 17:10

• 18:57

• 21:19
  SPEAKER_04: I just uh I don't know.
• 21:20
  SPEAKER_04: I just giving it to these I mean you're giving it to a UK investment.
• 21:26
  SPEAKER_06: It's true.
• 21:27
  SPEAKER_06: So but but I mean think about this.
• 21:28
  SPEAKER_06: If you have it.
• 21:30
  SPEAKER_06: Like would you want someone in your family running it uh with that responsibility?
• 21:39
  SPEAKER_06: Or would you want them to live a good life?
• 21:43
  SPEAKER_06: Like like say say um um well Bruce Springsteen has kids.
• 21:49
  SPEAKER_06: So Springsteen sold his catalog for five hundred million dollars.
• 21:53
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 21:54
  SPEAKER_06: Right?
• 21:55
  SPEAKER_06: Would it be is it better that he did that and gave the money to his kids and they can do whatever they want forever.
• 22:05
  SPEAKER_06: Or leave his catalogue i with his kids and they have to they are charged with doing something with it.
• 22:16
  SPEAKER_06: It's that's work.
• 22:18
  SPEAKER_04: Well yeah if you're gonna give your kids five hundred million dollars they better work for it.
• 22:23
  SPEAKER_06: No w what I'm saying is so he gave so so say he dies.
• 22:29
  SPEAKER_06: He will eventually right kids have millions of dollars to live a happy life or they have to work with for his catalog.
• 22:42
  SPEAKER_06: They have to say well you can use it and you can't use it and you can't use it and so why have that headache?
• 22:47
  SPEAKER_04: Why not just have millions of dollars Yeah but I'd rather the kids hopefully have have the have the say so of what it's used for.
• 22:58
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 22:59
  SPEAKER_06: So it's like his legacy his legacy but now his legacy which are those songs are in the hands of someone who is has no um relation besides business.
• 23:14
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah that that's I think that's what bothers me the most I see that I mean I can see you know they're selling to Sony and BMG.
• 23:21
  SPEAKER_04: I mean their music conglomerates I mean that means anybody under the Sony umbrella could use you know could cover their songs.
• 23:29
  SPEAKER_04: Yeah you know with no problem hey look we got all these songs you can cover one of them.
• 23:32
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 23:33
  SPEAKER_04: I get that that's that's at least the music is continuing but you're just giving it willy-nilly to some like Neil Young giving it to some investment group right they're not even are they investing in what?
• 23:48
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 23:49
  SPEAKER_04: So what are they gonna do they're gonna they're gonna sell this to advertisers that so that you know advertisers or companies can use Neil Young Neil Young's songs to advertise you know feminine hygiene products or whatever you know or whatever you know and there's not anything that Neil Young's kids can do about it.
• 24:09
  SPEAKER_04: Or family.
• 24:10
  SPEAKER_06: Say there's a charity that Neil Young is is uh really behind and wants to support um and the charity knows him well they go to him they say we want to use your song uh I don't know say it's a say it's a uh charity for drug addicts okay we want to use your song needling the damage done okay um would that be okay if we could we we get support for our program if we use your song needling and he says yes but they can't because that's somebody else owns it.
• 24:51
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah no I get what you're saying.
• 24:52
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah just to meet that's what I was just trying to give an example.
• 24:56
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah but I mean you're right.
• 24:57
  SPEAKER_06: Springsteen uh can we use your song to promote this and he says he's live I mean he says oh yeah absolutely use my song but Sony says uh uh no we own it yeah we own it shut up Bruce we own your song right that's see that that's that that's what bothers me right there if if they take one of like a song that you and I wrote yeah no I'm just saying you know yeah yeah we we we write a you know a bestseller you know goes ultra multi platinum whatever from your lips to God's ears man yeah see that's what I'm saying and then you know somebody comes to us like I don't know some somebody somebody we're in you know we want to help we say hey use our song right you know raise some money for your your your cause right and but we've we've sold it to you know you know ABC Music Corporation right oh no no no you can't do that well we wrote the mother effing thing right but they own it because that's what I'm saying man yep you're absolutely right I mean you it we we poured our you know our talents into this song but we have no say of what it can be used for.
• 26:08
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 26:09
  SPEAKER_04: That see to me that is just sad and wrong.
• 26:12
  SPEAKER_06: Yep to me.
• 26:13
  SPEAKER_06: And I and I get like you said as these um because the boss is in the 70s.
• 26:20
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah I mean he's no spring check Billy Gibbons is all is 70 I think and uh Paul Simon's eighty or something like that.
• 26:27
  SPEAKER_04: And I mean we're not gonna have these guys around for much longer.
• 26:30
  SPEAKER_06: Right and I get that they you know it's a business decision and so that they can enjoy the rest of their lives.
• 26:37
  SPEAKER_04: I mean I on a on a on one plane I get it.
• 26:42
  SPEAKER_04: I understand.
• 26:42
  SPEAKER_04: It's it's all business is both but it it's your heart you I mean you you sat down and you came up with this idea you came up with the the music and the words to this song and you put it out and you you used to play it you know for people and you know made people happy or you know and then some you know faceless corporation owns it now and you you know I I just it just bothers me.
• 27:06
  SPEAKER_06: I'm curious because I remember I don't know if it was in the um the the movie like the uh documentary um but I think I read somewhere that because you know if this band ever sold the rights to their music that it would be people would use it all the time Led Zeppelin you've been talking about him all all the whole podcast yeah um but they I think said they never want their music to be used for commercial purposes but they have have they haven't they I don't know have they well they've they've they've started to let it be used in movies movies right well that's different I think I can I can understand that you know yeah um I think the first one I remember was school rock right when they let immigrant song immigrant song be played on and I was like you know and but it's perfect because the whole movie is about rock and roll so I mean that was perfect.
• 28:18
  SPEAKER_06: I mean that was but I mean using it to you know well it was like when uh Chevy used Bob Seeger's uh like a rock right to sell trucks for years and years he made so much money on that I know he made stupid amounts of money yep so I you know I guess I don't know I'm just and and you know another band that if they ever did that that would be just it the the price tag I think if Led Zeppelin ever sold their catalog it would be more than 500 million dollars.
• 28:49
  SPEAKER_06: It would be up there or I don't think it would be more than or it was probably right you're right probably equivalent.
• 28:55
  SPEAKER_04: It would be it would be it would be like two 250.
• 28:59
  SPEAKER_04: I could see it going for that um it would be A C D C.
• 29:04
  SPEAKER_06: Oh good lord I'm surprised they haven't to be honest with you yeah I'm well I'm not surprised they haven't because I think Angus is against that stuff.
• 29:15
  SPEAKER_04: Well that's that's good.
• 29:16
  SPEAKER_04: I mean you know I mean if he could hang on to as long as he can but he I mean they're not young men.
• 29:21
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 29:22
  SPEAKER_04: So I mean you know what are they gonna do you know leave it to their families.
• 29:25
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 29:26
  SPEAKER_06: I know that uh when I finally sell my catalog I'll give you I got five bucks in my pocket like you could have it right now I think it's worth at least five bucks.
• 29:40
  SPEAKER_06: At least man's a down payment on it so speaking of back catalogs uh let's do the common crossing song of the week you know for a band that's only put out one you know actual album we have quite we have quite the catalog.
• 29:59
  SPEAKER_04: We do you know really if you think about it.
• 30:01

• 31:53
  SPEAKER_04: It was somewhere in that vicinity.
• 31:55
  SPEAKER_04: It was the late 90s.
• 31:56
  SPEAKER_06: Okay.
• 31:57
  SPEAKER_04: And you guys were talking about building your own house.

• 33:05
  SPEAKER_06: $37 right$37 billion dig it or leave it Elon billion dollars 37 billion um so the song of the week this week is kind of a neat one uh yeah I like I like this song there's some history to it because what used to happen was so Comic Crossing is uh myself Doug and Shane right but Comic Crossing used to be myself Doug and a guy named Nate Brewer who played bass Shane eventually joined on guitar right before Nate left and he switched over to bass.
• 33:40
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 33:40
  SPEAKER_06: So Nate Brewer technically was a member of Comic Crossing I and don't he's an OG I I shouldn't I I've left out Joko.
• 33:50
  SPEAKER_06: Uh Comic Crossing is is Doug, myself Shane and Josh Kovac.
• 33:56
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 33:57
  SPEAKER_04: Um but the OG Comet Crossing is me, you and Nate.
• 34:02
  SPEAKER_04: Right.
• 34:03
  SPEAKER_06: So um what typically would happen Nate Nate was a uh Nate was our I would say Nate was probably our main singer or was I still our main singer.
• 34:12
  SPEAKER_04: No he was the main singer.
• 34:12
  SPEAKER_06: That's what I thought yeah yeah he sang a lot of the songs.
• 34:14
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah and um he would he was more of a because he wasn't musical per se.
• 34:22
  SPEAKER_04: He didn't play guitar he had a really good voice.
• 34:24
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah he could really he was a really great singer um he he didn't play an instrument or he well he me he was learning bass yeah so he was our our quote unquote bass player right um but he would write a lot of poetry yes because uh well I mean he was a sensitive guy and he was uh kind of a romantic he was a hopeless romantic yeah yeah and so he would come in with these poems and he said can you do anything with this and I said yeah I'll try and so I would sit down and and kind of put music to it and and he would he would sing along and and we would kind of flesh it out together and you were there also and um so this is one of those.
• 35:05
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah and I found this recording there was this was before we were Comic Crossing this was before we were even the Blake Street boys right technically um but it was just Nate and I at his dad's house uh his dad had this music music room kind of like this but smaller where he had all kinds of CDs and stuff like that because his dad is a big music fan.
• 35:28
  SPEAKER_06: Yes.
• 35:29
  SPEAKER_06: And uh so we sat down and we just recorded just like on a cassette player um so we could remember these songs.
• 35:37
  SPEAKER_06: We'd only written a few and this is one of them and I found the cassette.
• 35:41
  SPEAKER_06: Um where is it right here.
• 35:44
  SPEAKER_06: It's actually a cassette that I sent my wife while she was in college and the the label says attention Teresa her last name from J U J which was just us jamming which was a terrible name for a band.
• 36:05
  SPEAKER_06: Jug.
• 36:06
  SPEAKER_06: And it says quote that's our name unless you can think of something better unquote which she could because she's smarter than all of us she absolutely is and there's a just a list of songs um and see there's one that you oh no that's not one that you I was gonna say there's one that you co-wrote but that's actually Bob I forgot that Bob co-wrote Bachelor's Anthem oh yeah yeah I had nothing to do with that yeah um so anyway I found this this is uh in 1995 we ha I have a cassette player and it it's okay it's a it's a decent cassette player but the sound obviously it sounds like a record it sounds like it's it's got that hiss it's got that hiss but it's also got some sort of crackle and I don't know if that's the cassette I don't know if that's a cassette it's yeah just yeah probably um but um this is Nate Brewer singing a song lyrics that he wrote music that I wrote uh and it's a song called I Do.
• 37:14
  SPEAKER_06: So here we go.

• 47:49
  SPEAKER_06: Okay.

• 48:13
  SPEAKER_06: Okay.
• 48:13
  SPEAKER_06: I I'm calling him Eberhardt, and maybe Eberhardt I I really don't know.

  SPEAKER_04: Eberhardt sounds cooler.
• 48:18
  SPEAKER_06: Um and he she played a song.
• 48:22
  SPEAKER_06: Actually, I can probably get you the song because it's on this album that I picked.
• 48:26
  SPEAKER_06: So the album that I picked is called Twelve Songs of Good and Evil.
• 48:32
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah, I liked this guy's voice.
• 48:36
  SPEAKER_06: Um and he was a pretty pretty damn good guitar player as well.
• 48:45
  SPEAKER_06: Um acoustic guitar player.
• 48:48
  SPEAKER_06: And he's still around, he's still making music.
• 48:52
  SPEAKER_06: I'm not sure what it was that caught me, whether it was the guitar or whether it was this guy's voice, and it's a song about drug abuse.
• 49:00
  SPEAKER_04: Okay.
• 49:01
  SPEAKER_06: But it's called Joey's Arms.
• 49:04
  SPEAKER_06: And it's just him and a guitar, basically.
• 49:08
  SPEAKER_06: Which is a lot of what this album is.
• 49:11
  SPEAKER_06: It's a very acoustic bass.
• 49:17
  SPEAKER_03: Never could be a savior.
• 49:21
  SPEAKER_03: Never could stop the pain.
• 49:29
  SPEAKER_03: It's running down the drain.
• 49:35
  SPEAKER_03: I love the last things that are wicked.
• 49:39
  SPEAKER_03: Look the last things cause me harm, but I never love nothing like Joey loves.
• 49:50
  SPEAKER_03: Wow, yeah.
• 49:51
  SPEAKER_06: It's I mean I actually learned this song after I got the album just because I thought it was just really cool.
• 50:04
  SPEAKER_03: Joey heavies runaway, girl.
• 50:08
  SPEAKER_03: They parted in my hotel room.
• 50:12
  SPEAKER_03: Oh, that just faces like the name on a stranger's tune.
• 50:22
  SPEAKER_03: Did a lot of things just for comfort.
• 50:26
  SPEAKER_03: Did a lot of things to keep me warm, but I never did nothing like Joy does.
• 50:37
  SPEAKER_06: So he's got like a raspy bluesy voice.
• 50:39
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah, right.
• 50:40
  SPEAKER_06: Um, and then so I I dug into let me let me play a couple more songs off this album because it's got uh I don't want you to think all of it's depressing.
• 50:56
  SPEAKER_06: There's a bass somewhere.
• 51:02
  SPEAKER_03: Some of them have a little more instrumentation than I found that I killed.
• 51:44
  SPEAKER_03: I'm running around looking for things to do.
• 51:50
  SPEAKER_03: If you were here do things for you.
• 51:55
  SPEAKER_06: So it's just a it's it's just a good listen.

  SPEAKER_06: Uh I'll play a little bit of one more off this album, and then I want to play something off uh another album that I have of his.
• 52:07
  SPEAKER_06: So I I this is the first album that I got, and then I picked another one up, and it was a lot more produced.
• 52:14
  SPEAKER_06: Um I think it actually came out before this one.
• 52:22
  SPEAKER_03: Late at night, voice on the phone, your memories and dreams won't leave you alone.
• 52:34
  SPEAKER_03: Something that happened so long ago.
• 52:40
  SPEAKER_03: You can't tell the truth, and you can't come back home.
• 52:49
  SPEAKER_03: So you kept it a secret so many years, hidden in anger, shadowed in fear, question which it's the question, take it the best of you.

  SPEAKER_03: The best of you is what they never would know.
• 53:22
  SPEAKER_03: The best of you is what they never The best of you is what it does.

  SPEAKER_03: Deep in your heart.
• 53:34
  SPEAKER_03: The best of you is all that I'm gonna do.
• 53:36
  SPEAKER_06: It's just a type of album that I would like you and I to do at some point.
• 53:39
  SPEAKER_06: That'd be fun.
• 53:40
  SPEAKER_06: You know what I mean?
• 53:40
  SPEAKER_06: Just you and I, just like we because we play acoustically.
• 53:42
  SPEAKER_06: Oh yeah.
• 53:43
  SPEAKER_06: Um just just record some songs, just you and I.

• 53:54
  SPEAKER_06: Now You Are My Home, yep.
• 53:56
  SPEAKER_06: Uh and let me just play one song off this.

  SPEAKER_06: I think this one has a good one.
• 54:02
  SPEAKER_06: Uh he does a cover of a Smokey Robinson song.
• 54:05
  SPEAKER_06: Alright.
• 54:05
  SPEAKER_06: Uh You Really Got a Hold on Me.
• 54:07
  SPEAKER_06: Oh yeah.
• 54:08
  SPEAKER_06: And it's a kind of a cool version, too.
• 54:10
  SPEAKER_06: Um but I always like this one off this off this album.
• 54:18
  SPEAKER_06: So obviously already already it sounds different.
• 54:21
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 54:23
  SPEAKER_06: And there's piano and I'll I don't know if it's on this song, but the full band.
• 55:03
  SPEAKER_03: I can't feel I'm not quite all you.
• 55:11
  SPEAKER_06: So I just and he's still making music.
• 55:15
  SPEAKER_06: No, but he plays like like uh small clubs and and coffee houses and and whatnot.
• 55:24
  SPEAKER_06: And he's he does more more of um what you heard the f the first few songs that I played.
• 55:29
  SPEAKER_06: Uh very acoustic.
• 55:30
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 55:31
  SPEAKER_06: Um and it's I don't know, it's just great stuff, and it's a a a breath of fresh air.
• 55:37
  SPEAKER_06: Um I like his voice.
• 55:39
  SPEAKER_04: I think he's got a very nice voice.
• 55:41
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah, I've always liked his voice.
• 55:43
  SPEAKER_06: When I was down um, I think it was it wasn't the last time I was down in Bangor and stopped in Bull Moose, but the time before, um I got another one of his albums called Mona Lisa Cafe, which is also a great album.
• 55:56
  SPEAKER_06: Um But as a songwriter, you y you try, or at least I try to listen to different types of music.
• 56:04
  SPEAKER_06: Right.
• 56:05
  SPEAKER_06: So you know, because I mean obviously we talk about rock and roll all the time.
• 56:08
  SPEAKER_06: I love rock and roll, but I love country music because of the stories.
• 56:10
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 56:11
  SPEAKER_06: I love modern folk music like that, Cliff Cliff Everhardt, because I mean you heard Joey's arms and that moved you a little bit.
• 56:18
  SPEAKER_04: Oh, it was good.
• 56:19
  SPEAKER_06: You know, it's like I never heard it put that way before.
• 56:22
  SPEAKER_06: And and so I listened to that stuff just to feed my soul and to feed my, you know, uh craft, I guess.
• 56:32
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 56:32
  SPEAKER_06: So I got it.
• 56:34
  SPEAKER_06: I highly recommend uh and and he I say he's still going.
• 56:38
  SPEAKER_06: I don't know how many albums he's got, and I don't know if he's still putting out albums in this weird age that we're in, because um I don't know, he he may still make albums and sell at his shows, but most people stream now and and you know, uh I think they probably make their living off touring now.
• 56:59
  SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
• 57:00
  SPEAKER_06: More than anything else.
