- 1:57SPEAKER_01: Cousin Larry should do his own podcast.
- 1:59SPEAKER_15: Oh, he really should.
- 2:00SPEAKER_01: That would be fun.
- 2:00SPEAKER_15: Because you know, he's got a lifetime of uh music experience.
- 2:03SPEAKER_15: Right, exactly.
- 2:04SPEAKER_15: We should have him on the show.
- 2:06SPEAKER_15: Well, yeah, that'd be I mean, you know We've been talking about having guests and stuff.
- 2:09SPEAKER_15: We should yeah, we should get back because I don't did we even have a guest last season?
- 2:13SPEAKER_15: We didn't.
- 2:13SPEAKER_15: No, yeah, mostly I don't even remember the last time we had a guest.
- 2:16SPEAKER_01: Nope, nope.

- 2:36SPEAKER_01: You know, we always have a have a good time, but it's just like it was yeah, it was it was good.
- 2:41SPEAKER_01: I mean it was we talked about some cool stuff, and she every time she says, You gotta have guests.
- 2:46SPEAKER_15: It's true, you really gotta break up the you know Yeah, because we do feed off off that yeah a little bit.
- 2:52SPEAKER_15: Exactly.
- 2:53SPEAKER_15: So you feel like you gotta, you know, turn it up a notch, you know, when you get you know it's like when uh Billy Preston was in the uh let it you know let it be uh recordings.
- 3:03SPEAKER_15: Right.
- 3:03SPEAKER_15: You know, they they turned it up uh a notch just because you know somebody else was in the room.
- 3:08SPEAKER_01: Right, and somebody who is arguably a better musician than they were, yes, you know, and said they had to impress him, you know, that type of thing.
- 3:14SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
- 3:15SPEAKER_15: We should get Joe Rogan in here and just set him up over, you know, just put him in a chair over there.

- 3:41SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I know.
- 3:42SPEAKER_15: Um Do I feel bad for you?
- 3:44SPEAKER_01: No, no, probably not.
- 3:45SPEAKER_01: Whatever.
- 3:46SPEAKER_01: Um so how was your Christmas?
- 3:49SPEAKER_01: How was your holiday?
- 3:50SPEAKER_15: I was very quiet.
- 3:51SPEAKER_01: Was it?
- 3:52SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
- 3:53SPEAKER_15: Yeah.
- 3:53SPEAKER_15: Uh apparently my mom doesn't know uh chicken from Turkey.
- 3:58SPEAKER_15: Um well here's the story.
- 4:00SPEAKER_15: So we're having Christmas dinner and uh and uh she had she had she'd gotten a turkey and she'd put it in like a you know roaster and she'd started it up and she accidentally shut it off, didn't realize it.
- 4:14SPEAKER_15: She thought she turned it up, but she actually shut it off.
- 4:17SPEAKER_15: So we're getting ready to eat dinner, and you know Aunt Janny and Angela and all the other all over.
- 4:24SPEAKER_15: She's like, Oh no, it's not cooked.
- 4:27SPEAKER_15: I must have shut it off.
- 4:28SPEAKER_15: But luckily, Angela were at turkey.
- 4:31SPEAKER_15: So we had turkey, and then it didn't matter, and we had a big ham anyway, so it didn't really matter.
- 4:34SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 4:35SPEAKER_15: So so she turns the turkey back on, and uh, you know, we we eat dinner and a couple hours goes by.
- 4:41SPEAKER_15: She's like, Oh, she was you she went over checked and she goes, Oh, good, I think my chicken's done.
- 4:46SPEAKER_15: And my sister goes, Well, that's good because it started out as a turkey.
- 4:51SPEAKER_15: So we kind of riffed on that for a while.
- 4:55SPEAKER_15: So, you know, was it a chicken?
- 4:57SPEAKER_15: No, it was a turkey.
- 4:58SPEAKER_15: If what she said, oh, I think the chicken's done.
- 5:02SPEAKER_15: So my mom was a little frazzled, but so yeah, it was pretty funny, you know?
- 5:07SPEAKER_15: So yeah, we had a good time.
- 5:09SPEAKER_15: Good.
- 5:09SPEAKER_15: You both uh Jude and my two oldest came home.
- 5:14SPEAKER_01: Yeah, um, and we actually uh it was the first Christmas with my future daughter-in-law.
- 5:20SPEAKER_15: Oh yeah, that's right, yes.
- 5:21SPEAKER_01: Uh she stayed over uh Christmas Christmas Eve.
- 5:24SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
- 5:24SPEAKER_01: Christmas Eve into Christmas.
- 5:27SPEAKER_01: Um so it was it was uh the girls had a room.
- 5:31SPEAKER_01: So the uh all the girls stayed.
- 5:34SPEAKER_01: She she stayed on a bunk bed and Olivia was on the top bunk, Myra stayed on the floor.
- 5:38SPEAKER_01: And they're like a sleepover.
- 5:40SPEAKER_15: Yeah, they had a sleepover.
- 5:41SPEAKER_01: And then uh and uh Jude stayed with the boys.
- 5:45SPEAKER_01: He had a cot in the in the boys' room.
- 5:47SPEAKER_01: So it was it was crowded.
- 5:49SPEAKER_15: Sure, but it's it's it's it's a good kind of crowded.
- 5:51SPEAKER_01: It was a good kind of crowded.
- 5:52SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 5:52SPEAKER_01: And um yeah, I mean we got up and we had uh Christmas morning and then we went to church and then we had another Christmas morning, and then um they went and had Christmas at her parents' place.
- 6:05SPEAKER_01: Which is right over there, which is right down the road.
- 6:07SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 6:08SPEAKER_01: Um so it was good, yeah.
- 6:10SPEAKER_01: Everybody had a had a good time and and uh I think uh made out pretty well.
- 6:15SPEAKER_01: Good.
- 6:15SPEAKER_01: Uh for Christmas.
- 6:16SPEAKER_01: There's one thing that we for we we we didn't forget, but we waited too long to do, because uh you know, the past couple years we have done um a online Christmas card.
- 6:28SPEAKER_01: Because we know we don't do Christmas cards and it's it's nothing against people.
- 6:31SPEAKER_01: I mean, we get a lot of Christmas cards.
- 6:33SPEAKER_15: Oh, your family.
- 6:34SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 6:34SPEAKER_15: I thought you were talking about you and me.
- 6:35SPEAKER_01: No, no, no.
- 6:36SPEAKER_15: What if we ever done an online Christmas card?
- 6:38SPEAKER_01: Sorry.
- 6:39SPEAKER_01: So what we forgot to do we and again, we didn't forget to do it, we just waited too long.
- 6:44SPEAKER_01: Um we did a couple years ago we did a video.
- 6:47SPEAKER_01: I don't remember where we it was like a story.
- 6:50SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 6:51SPEAKER_01: Uh um and then last year we did um uh a song.
- 6:58SPEAKER_01: Uh We Three Kings of Orientar tried to smoke a rubber cigar.
- 7:02SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 7:03SPEAKER_01: It was loaded, it exploded.
- 7:04SPEAKER_01: Poof.
- 7:05SPEAKER_01: Um, and so we were gonna do something like that.
- 7:07SPEAKER_01: Uh to go back, we get a lot of Christmas cards from people, and we love getting Christmas cards from people, but we just don't send them out because we're lazy.
- 7:14SPEAKER_01: I guess we're lazy people and or we have too much going on.
- 7:18SPEAKER_01: Um, so we started doing this online Christmas card thing where we would make a video and you know, say Merry Christmas from us.
- 7:25SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 7:26SPEAKER_01: Um, we didn't get to it because, you know, we had an idea of what we wanted to do.
- 7:31SPEAKER_01: We were gonna make a music video.
- 7:33SPEAKER_01: Uh but in order to make a music video, we had to record a song first.
- 7:38SPEAKER_01: Uh to kind of lip sync to.
- 7:40SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 7:40SPEAKER_01: You know, because we weren't gonna use somebody else's song.
- 7:42SPEAKER_01: Uh or somebody else's it was somebody else's song, it was a Chuck Berry song that we were gonna do.
- 7:47SPEAKER_01: Um but we had to play it.
- 7:50SPEAKER_01: So, and then we were gonna video it and we never got to it.
- 7:53SPEAKER_01: And plus, there was a meltdown with the singer.
- 7:57SPEAKER_01: The singer has a bit of lead singer disease.
- 8:00SPEAKER_01: Um Who's the lead singer?
- 8:02SPEAKER_01: Well, you want to hear it?
- 8:03SPEAKER_01: Because I have the song.
- 8:04SPEAKER_15: Well, might as well.
- 8:05SPEAKER_15: Yeah, okay, let's play the song.
- 8:07SPEAKER_15: Uh you're not gonna send it out, you might as well send it out on the podcast.
- 8:10SPEAKER_01: Yeah, exactly.
- 8:10SPEAKER_01: That's what I'm saying.
- 8:11SPEAKER_01: Uh let's see, where is it?
- 8:15SPEAKER_01: Is that it?
- 8:19SPEAKER_01: I think that's it right there.
- 9:40SPEAKER_01: So we were gonna have been playing the drums.
- 9:43SPEAKER_01: Yeah, and uh in the base.
- 9:52SPEAKER_01: Like a skit, okay?
- 9:54SPEAKER_01: With like her running around with a red nose.
- 9:58SPEAKER_01: We couldn't make it happen in such a short period of time.
- 10:02SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 10:05SPEAKER_17: So this verse was after a lot of tears.
- 10:23SPEAKER_01: I'll explain it in a second.
- 10:29SPEAKER_01: I mean, I I think you've heard you've heard the song.
- 10:32SPEAKER_01: So so this is uh that's all me.
- 10:36SPEAKER_01: Uh, all the instruments.
- 10:37SPEAKER_15: Yeah.
- 10:38SPEAKER_01: Because what I was going to do, the plan was to record it like that, and have Myra sing it.
- 10:48SPEAKER_01: And then the boys were gonna mic up, we were gonna mic up the drum set, and he was going to play to the track, and Eli was going to play the bass to the track.
- 11:00SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 11:00SPEAKER_01: You know.
- 11:01SPEAKER_01: But again, we ran out of time.
- 11:03SPEAKER_01: And to to get the lead singer to like her voice.
- 11:09SPEAKER_01: She sounded pretty good.
- 11:10SPEAKER_01: I thought she so she sounded great.
- 11:12SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 11:13SPEAKER_01: Um But she lit she sang the first few lines and then she said, Can I hear it?
- 11:21SPEAKER_01: And I played it back for her.
- 11:24SPEAKER_01: And she's like, That's awful.
- 11:27SPEAKER_01: And granted, it wasn't I had doubled her voice.
- 11:30SPEAKER_01: She'd sang it a few times and I I doubled it, you know, because it sounds pretty thick on there.
- 11:35SPEAKER_01: So she had just heard the single and single voice and it was just just destroyed.
- 11:44SPEAKER_01: She's like, This sounds so bad.
- 11:46SPEAKER_01: So for a day and a half, or maybe it maybe it was just a day, it was trying to convince her to keep doing it because we she sounded great.
- 11:55SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 11:56SPEAKER_01: And so the second verse she did like a line and then was just like crying, and just like No, you're doing fine.
- 12:07SPEAKER_01: It sounds good.
- 12:09SPEAKER_01: You know, and so she didn't like it.
- 12:11SPEAKER_01: And we never got to record the other guys doing their parts, and we never got to make the video.
- 12:17SPEAKER_01: So that's about as far as we got.
- 12:19SPEAKER_15: Well, but I mean it's it's a good basis for next year.
- 12:22SPEAKER_01: Yeah, that's what I thought.
- 12:23SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 12:23SPEAKER_01: And we're just gonna have to start earlier next year.
- 12:26SPEAKER_15: Yeah, start like, you know, like October.
- 12:28SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 12:29SPEAKER_01: Um But you know.
- 12:32SPEAKER_15: You know, like when you typically make a uh Christmas album, you you know, you start in the summertime.
- 12:36SPEAKER_15: Right, in July.
- 12:37SPEAKER_15: Yeah, right, exactly.
- 12:38SPEAKER_15: You know, make it Christmasy and you know, Christmas in July.
- 12:41SPEAKER_15: That's where the whole expression came from.
- 12:42SPEAKER_15: Right.
- 12:43SPEAKER_15: You know, just make sense to me.
- 12:46SPEAKER_15: So, you know.
- 12:47SPEAKER_01: Oh, uh showing my new acquisitions from KMH.
- 12:50SPEAKER_01: Ah, all right.
- 12:51SPEAKER_01: Uh so this one.

- 12:59SPEAKER_01: Noise.
- 13:00SPEAKER_01: Masterworks.
- 13:01SPEAKER_01: Uh it's got everything that uh I'm not gonna say it's got everything he put out, but it's more than four albums.
- 13:09SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it would be more than four albums.
- 13:10SPEAKER_01: But it's definitely uh oh no, is it two?
- 13:13SPEAKER_01: It's two albums.
- 13:14SPEAKER_01: Sorry.
- 13:15SPEAKER_01: Yeah, side one, side two, side three, side four.
- 13:16SPEAKER_01: It's two albums, yeah.
- 13:18SPEAKER_01: It's a double, it's a double album set.
- 13:20SPEAKER_01: Uh, but I was I was pretty pretty pumped to get that.
- 13:23SPEAKER_01: Nice.
- 13:23SPEAKER_01: Um so I went in and I talked to Chris Morton at KMH Music.
- 13:29SPEAKER_01: And you know, because I was it was my I was on vacation, I don't get to go down very much, so I went just hung out with him for a little while.
- 13:37SPEAKER_01: And uh, you know, we talk about a lot of stuff, and as we're talking, I'm looking at the guitars and stuff, oh this is really nice.
- 13:49SPEAKER_01: I'm gonna take a picture of that.
- 13:51SPEAKER_01: So I took a picture of the guitar.
- 13:52SPEAKER_01: And he says, I really like this one.
- 13:54SPEAKER_01: So I took a picture of that, and it's like, yeah, boy, my wife would kill me.
- 13:58SPEAKER_01: Yeah, she would.
- 14:00SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 14:03SPEAKER_15: Dude, you would be a TV movie.
- 14:04SPEAKER_15: Okay, hold on.
- 14:06SPEAKER_15: She would kill you.
- 14:07SPEAKER_15: She would never find you.
- 14:09SPEAKER_01: So I came home.
- 14:12SPEAKER_01: How's Chris?
- 14:13SPEAKER_01: Good.
- 14:14SPEAKER_01: I took out my phone.
- 14:17SPEAKER_01: Showed her a picture of one of the guitars that I took a picture of.
- 14:21SPEAKER_01: She's like, that's ugly.
- 14:23SPEAKER_01: She's she's making t-shirts at the time.
- 14:24SPEAKER_01: She's like, that's ugly.
- 14:26SPEAKER_01: She's just trying to get me going.
- 14:28SPEAKER_01: So I switched it to the next one.
- 14:29SPEAKER_01: I said, Look at that one.
- 14:30SPEAKER_01: She's like, that's even uglier.
- 14:33SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 14:35SPEAKER_01: I said, you know, I could, you know, dog gonna have a couple gigs, I could have it paid off by the end of February.
- 14:40SPEAKER_01: She's like, yeah, what about that uh car payment?
- 14:43SPEAKER_01: We got a car payment that you probably need at the end of February, too.
- 14:49SPEAKER_01: So I walk away.
- 14:50SPEAKER_01: Kind of hanging my head.
- 14:52SPEAKER_01: You know what she said?

- 15:13SPEAKER_01: I'm like, dude, holy crap! He had he said the coolest line about my wife.
- 15:19SPEAKER_01: He said, Your wife is my favorite reoccurring character.
- 15:28SPEAKER_01: Oh, it's a SG.
- 15:29SPEAKER_01: It's an SG.
- 15:30SPEAKER_01: Now, I did just get rid of an SG uh to get one of my new ones over here.
- 15:38SPEAKER_01: So I had to get it back.

- 25:51SPEAKER_15: I remember yeah, we've played so many New Year's Eve gigs that it just It's been nice not to play them.
- 25:56SPEAKER_01: It is actually the past few years.
- 25:57SPEAKER_15: Yeah, because it was it I mean it's it's it can be fun, but it's a lot of work.
- 26:02SPEAKER_01: It is a lot of work.
- 26:03SPEAKER_01: People don't people don't realize that, but it is.
- 26:05SPEAKER_15: You know, because you know, you're all you're just there to party, but you know, we have to go and set up sound check.
- 26:11SPEAKER_15: We gotta play three, four hours.
- 26:13SPEAKER_15: Yeah, then we gotta tear it all down, then we gotta go home.
- 26:15SPEAKER_15: So it's like three, four o'clock in the morning before we get home.
- 26:18SPEAKER_15: And it's just like, oh, good lord.
- 26:20SPEAKER_01: And it and being on stage for three or four hours, I mean it's it's it takes a lot out of you.
- 26:24SPEAKER_15: It does.
- 26:24SPEAKER_15: Yeah, so it it's a job, man.
- 26:26SPEAKER_01: So it'll be interesting.
- 26:27SPEAKER_15: So if anybody complains about how much a band costs on New Year's Eve, suck it up.
- 26:31SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 26:31SPEAKER_15: Because that's a lot of work.
- 26:32SPEAKER_01: It'll be interesting how many uh Sturdy Star City Syndicate members are sick that day.
- 26:36SPEAKER_01: No, they'll all be there.
- 26:37SPEAKER_01: You think so?
- 26:38SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah.
- 26:38SPEAKER_01: That late?
- 26:42SPEAKER_01: Oh, we're not?
- 26:43SPEAKER_15: No, it's like eight to eleven or something like that.
- 26:45SPEAKER_01: Oh, well, that's not a New Year's Eve gig.
- 26:47SPEAKER_15: Yeah, so it's the only New Year's Eve gig about it is it's on New Year's Eve.
- 26:51SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 26:51SPEAKER_01: So, yeah, well that'll be fun though.
- 26:55SPEAKER_01: Uh because, you know, we have we haven't done that yet.
- 26:57SPEAKER_15: It sounds like we're gonna, you know, we got a whole year to prepare.
- 26:59SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 26:59SPEAKER_01: So and we've been learning some new songs.
- 27:02SPEAKER_01: Yeah, we have.
- 27:03SPEAKER_01: Um, and hopefully we'll learn a few more.
- 27:06SPEAKER_01: We got a couple, we got a um uh fundraiser coming up uh January 20th.
- 27:12SPEAKER_15: Yeah.
- 27:12SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 27:13SPEAKER_01: For teen leadership camp.
- 27:14SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 27:15SPEAKER_01: Something near and dear to you.
- 27:16SPEAKER_01: Are you gonna like run that show?
- 27:17SPEAKER_15: No.
- 27:19SPEAKER_01: You should.
- 27:19SPEAKER_15: I mean, it's not my show.
- 27:22SPEAKER_01: No, but what I mean is you're gonna MC it.
- 27:25SPEAKER_01: Like like I'm sure I'll say something.
- 27:27SPEAKER_01: You'll talk more than you normally do.
- 27:28SPEAKER_01: Probably.
- 27:29SPEAKER_01: Okay, good.
- 27:30SPEAKER_15: Yeah.
- 27:30SPEAKER_15: And and it'll probably be coherent and Usually I just say stuff like, you'll an idiot when I'm on stage.
- 27:41SPEAKER_01: Um so yeah, we we we we we're doing a Rolling Stone song.
- 27:45SPEAKER_01: Um another Aretha Franklin song.
- 27:49SPEAKER_15: We can't really do enough Aretha Franklin.
- 27:51SPEAKER_15: No, you can't.
- 27:52SPEAKER_01: Um So that leads me to this next topic.
- 27:55SPEAKER_15: Uh Aretha Franklin?
- 27:56SPEAKER_01: No, cover songs.
- 27:58SPEAKER_15: Cover songs.
- 27:58SPEAKER_01: So we talked we've talked about cover songs in the past, but Ultimate Classic Rock has a list of some of the well, 35 terrible classic rock covers.
- 28:08SPEAKER_15: Oh, okay.
- 28:09SPEAKER_01: Um and I I browse through the list.
- 28:14SPEAKER_01: And there are some bad ones.
- 28:16SPEAKER_01: But you know, I look at the in a different kind of way.
- 28:23SPEAKER_01: When you're doing a cover song, do you want to do it exactly like the song?
- 28:29SPEAKER_01: No.
- 28:29SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 28:30SPEAKER_01: I I don't think so either.
- 28:31SPEAKER_15: You kind of want to put your own spin on it.
- 28:33SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 28:34SPEAKER_15: And I mean, of all the cover songs we've done, we've never done a perfect cover.
- 28:40SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 28:40SPEAKER_15: I don't think I don't think it's possible to do a perfect cover.
- 28:43SPEAKER_01: Well, when you're but when you're playing in a bar, you probably want to do it as close to the original as possible so that because the people listening want to dance to it, right?
- 28:51SPEAKER_01: And you know, we do put our own spin on it.
- 28:53SPEAKER_01: But I'm I'm talking about the people that have recorded cover songs for their albums or for tribute albums or things like that.
- 29:00SPEAKER_01: And Ultimate Classic Rock made this list, and and while I agree with some of them, some of them digest it or something.
- 29:16SPEAKER_01: Um so Well, let's just start with the first one because Bick Jagger and David Bowie.
- 29:37SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah, give them the trade.
- 29:38SPEAKER_07: Yeah.
- 29:44SPEAKER_01: Don't know why this happened.
- 29:47SPEAKER_15: Oh, it's Mick Jagger and David Bowie.
- 29:53SPEAKER_01: But I mean why why choose this song?
- 29:56SPEAKER_01: I I like this song.
- 29:58SPEAKER_01: Well, because they can do this.
- 30:03SPEAKER_15: Would you say this is a terrible cover?
- 30:05SPEAKER_15: No, I actually like this cover.
- 30:06SPEAKER_15: I do too.
- 30:07SPEAKER_15: I actually like this a lot.
- 30:09SPEAKER_15: I thought they did a great job.
- 30:11SPEAKER_01: I love I actually like this this one better than the original.
- 30:15SPEAKER_01: Have you seen the uh have you seen the one where they take out the music?
- 30:19SPEAKER_15: Yeah.
- 30:20SPEAKER_15: It's terrible.
- 30:22SPEAKER_10: I happen to have it queued up here because it's it's actually quite funny.
- 30:27SPEAKER_10: I know, right?
- 30:28SPEAKER_10: It's it's kind of creepy.
- 30:31SPEAKER_15: Well, it's like it reminds me of that dirty video with the with the right or uh separate way.
- 30:55SPEAKER_01: It's a classic.
- 30:56SPEAKER_01: If you're looking to watch this, go to YouTube and type in dancing dancing in the street silent music video.
- 31:09SPEAKER_01: Whoever did this was just genius.
- 31:11SPEAKER_01: Brilliant.
- 31:12SPEAKER_01: Brilliant.
- 31:14SPEAKER_01: Um, and this one, see.
- 31:18SPEAKER_01: I didn't know that the cure did this.
- 31:20SPEAKER_15: Okay.
- 31:21SPEAKER_15: Which one?
- 31:21SPEAKER_01: The cure is not my favorite band.
- 31:24SPEAKER_15: I like the cure, but you know, you know, no.
- 31:26SPEAKER_15: Yeah, not the same.
- 31:26SPEAKER_15: Not my favorite band.
- 31:28SPEAKER_01: Um I like some of the stuff that they've done.
- 31:30SPEAKER_01: Um this was on a tribute album for Jimi Hendrix.
- 31:35SPEAKER_01: Stone Free, a tribute to Jimi Hendrix.
- 31:37SPEAKER_01: They did Purple Haze.
- 31:38SPEAKER_15: Oh, I didn't know that.
- 31:39SPEAKER_01: Now, it doesn't sound like Jimi Hendrix Purple Haze, but you wouldn't expect it to.
- 31:46SPEAKER_15: Well, it's Robert Smith.
- 31:47SPEAKER_15: I mean, uh I I'm amazed that he even knows Jimi Hendrix at all.
- 31:54SPEAKER_15: But I dig it.
- 32:04SPEAKER_01: I mean, it's electronic.
- 32:05SPEAKER_15: Well, of course it is.
- 32:06SPEAKER_15: It's the it's the character.
- 32:17SPEAKER_01: But I like when they take it and make it their own.
- 32:20SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 32:20SPEAKER_01: Make it something different.
- 32:21SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 32:22SPEAKER_01: I like that.
- 32:36SPEAKER_01: But of course, Ultimate Classic Rock says this is the cure's uh failed attempt to celebrate their musical idol.
- 32:46SPEAKER_15: Is it is it gonna get to the words anytime though?
- 32:50SPEAKER_01: I just did the rip, you can barely recognize it.
- 32:53SPEAKER_15: Yeah.
- 33:21SPEAKER_15: It's definitely it's definitely been curified.
- 33:25SPEAKER_15: Yeah, and but I dig it.
- 33:26SPEAKER_15: It's not it's not terrible.
- 33:28SPEAKER_01: Um I uh again, I'm one of those people that's that feels like if you're gonna cover a song, do something different with it.
- 33:35SPEAKER_01: They definitely did.
- 33:36SPEAKER_01: Yeah, they did.
- 33:36SPEAKER_01: And I I I like it.
- 33:38SPEAKER_01: Now this was a cringe moment.
- 33:40SPEAKER_15: Uh, is this when all the celebrities sang?
- 33:42SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I don't even think I want to play it.
- 33:44SPEAKER_15: Yeah, I'd rather not play.
- 33:45SPEAKER_01: But it's with with Gal God, uh Christ Christine Kristen Wiggs, Sarah Silverman, Jimmy Fallon, where they did John Lennon's uh Imagine.
- 33:52SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 33:53SPEAKER_01: I don't think it was bad, but I don't think it was I mean it was not necessary.
- 33:57SPEAKER_15: Yeah, it was just like duh.
- 33:59SPEAKER_01: And another uh this is another one.
- 34:02SPEAKER_01: Uh you two did a cover of CCR's Fortunate Son.
- 34:08SPEAKER_15: Oh yeah, it's terrible.
- 34:09SPEAKER_01: You don't like it.
- 34:10SPEAKER_01: I don't like it.
- 34:10SPEAKER_01: Uh well let's let's let's wave the flag.
- 34:33SPEAKER_15: Now you don't like it or I just don't I don't like the how they did it.
- 34:41SPEAKER_15: It just it just sounds like you too.
- 34:44SPEAKER_15: Yeah, I mean it does, but it doesn't.
- 34:47SPEAKER_15: I don't know.
- 34:48SPEAKER_15: I just I don't care for it.
- 34:50SPEAKER_01: Because I like the original.
- 34:52SPEAKER_01: I like the original better as well.
- 34:56SPEAKER_01: I mean I think that can that's usually the case.
- 35:00SPEAKER_01: Is you like the original better than the cover.
- 35:02SPEAKER_01: It's very rare that the cover is better than the original.
- 35:04SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it happens, but oh yeah, there is definitely uh Cindy Lauper, what's going on?
- 35:09SPEAKER_01: Do you remember that one?
- 35:10SPEAKER_15: I do remember that.
- 35:10SPEAKER_15: And she actually wasn't terrible.
- 35:12SPEAKER_15: It wasn't it wasn't too bad.
- 35:13SPEAKER_01: I'm not gonna play all 35 of these.
- 35:15SPEAKER_15: No, I'm just saying I'm but I I, you know, of course I'm more partial to the original.
- 35:20SPEAKER_01: So Ultimate Classic Rock says, we find ourselves asking similar questions as we listen to her remake.
- 35:30SPEAKER_01: What's going on here?
- 35:31SPEAKER_01: Why are there so many synths on this song?
- 35:34SPEAKER_01: Is she doing jazz scat?
- 35:36SPEAKER_01: Who thought this was a good idea?
- 35:38SPEAKER_01: Now, it was the time.
- 35:40SPEAKER_01: This was in the 80s, right?
- 35:42SPEAKER_15: Oh yeah, it's big hair, so yeah, it's gotta be the 80s.
- 35:48SPEAKER_01: So that's why there's so many synths.
- 35:50SPEAKER_15: Well, yeah, I mean that that was her style, man.
- 35:53SPEAKER_01: It was just extremely and I and I don't mind it.
- 36:06SPEAKER_01: Of course, I like Marvin Gaze better.
- 36:08SPEAKER_15: Yeah, I like I like his better too.
- 36:09SPEAKER_01: Uh County Crow's Big Yellow Taxi.
- 36:12SPEAKER_15: Oh, yeah, yeah.
- 36:12SPEAKER_15: It was yeah.
- 36:13SPEAKER_15: I don't even like the original that much.
- 36:15SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it was I mean, it was okay.
- 36:16SPEAKER_01: They did it, they did a decent job.
- 36:17SPEAKER_01: Uh, I'm not even gonna play Motley Crue, Anarchy in the UK, because I don't like either the song or the Well, I like the original better than the crew version.
- 36:25SPEAKER_15: But the crew version isn't bad.
- 36:27SPEAKER_01: So did you know that this was this band's first hit?
- 36:33SPEAKER_15: This is what introduced the Michael Michael Jordan's faith, in it.
- 36:36SPEAKER_15: Michael George Michael.
- 36:38SPEAKER_15: George Michael, yeah.
- 36:39SPEAKER_15: I guess it would be nice.
- 36:41SPEAKER_15: It is.
- 36:41SPEAKER_01: This was the song that introduced Limbiscuit to the world.
- 36:44SPEAKER_01: Really?
- 36:44SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 36:49SPEAKER_05: But I gotta think twice before I give my heart away.
- 36:54SPEAKER_05: And I know all the games you play, cause I play them too.
- 37:06SPEAKER_01: Apparently, George Michael hated this.
- 37:14SPEAKER_01: I wasn't a big Limp Biscuit fan, but I liked this.
- 37:18SPEAKER_04: Someone knew that.
- 37:25SPEAKER_15: I mean, it's typic it's typical limp like when they did the uh Mission Impossible song.
- 37:31SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 37:31SPEAKER_15: You know, it sounds exactly like this.
- 37:34SPEAKER_15: Just it's Mission Impossible.
- 37:39SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 37:40SPEAKER_15: They, of course, have taken their fair share of You know, Fred Durst is just a dork.
- 37:45SPEAKER_15: Yeah.
- 37:45SPEAKER_15: I mean, you know, so.
- 37:47SPEAKER_15: What are you gonna do, man?
- 37:48SPEAKER_01: And so this one I disagree with.
- 37:50SPEAKER_01: Um, this is another limp biscuit.
- 37:53SPEAKER_01: I like their version of the Who's behind Blue Eyes.
- 37:58SPEAKER_01: Have you heard this?
- 37:58SPEAKER_15: I don't think I've heard this.
- 37:59SPEAKER_01: I didn't know that it's good.
- 38:02SPEAKER_01: Um according to classic uh Ultimate Classic Rock though, uh let's see.
- 38:10SPEAKER_05: No one knows what it's like to be the bad man to be the sad.
- 38:18SPEAKER_01: So they did they added a verse and an extra chorus, and they used a speaking spell.
- 38:26SPEAKER_05: No one knows what it's like to be But that's again that's making it their own.
- 38:33SPEAKER_15: Oh sure, yeah.
- 38:36SPEAKER_05: To telling only lies.
- 38:41SPEAKER_05: But my dreams the life is empty as my cog seems to be.
- 38:55SPEAKER_01: Now, do I like the original better?
- 38:57SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 38:58SPEAKER_15: Oh yeah.
- 38:59SPEAKER_15: But I thought this was okay.
- 39:00SPEAKER_15: This isn't terrible.
- 39:04SPEAKER_05: My love is vengeance that's never free.
- 39:18SPEAKER_05: No one knows what it's like.
- 39:20SPEAKER_01: I don't want to go through the whole thing, but yeah, I I think that I thought they did a good job with that.
- 39:24SPEAKER_01: Um this one.
- 39:30SPEAKER_01: And I think half the time they're trying to do a cool cover song, but still stay themselves.
- 39:38SPEAKER_01: Sure.
- 39:38SPEAKER_01: Like this.
- 39:38SPEAKER_01: This is Sugar Ray.
- 39:52SPEAKER_08: Pretty women out walking with girls down my street.
- 40:00SPEAKER_08: From my window I'm staring while my coffee grows cold.
- 40:08SPEAKER_08: Look over there! Where?
- 40:15SPEAKER_01: I thought that was on the recorder.
- 40:26SPEAKER_01: The old Joe Jackson, too.
- 40:28SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 40:28SPEAKER_01: Again.
- 40:29SPEAKER_15: This is actually pretty good.
- 40:31SPEAKER_15: I mean, I like the original better, but it's actually pretty good.
- 40:34SPEAKER_15: I don't think it's a terrible cover.
- 40:35SPEAKER_15: I always considered Sugar A to be somewhat of a cover band anyway.
- 40:38SPEAKER_15: Right.
- 40:39SPEAKER_15: Um, but my favorite cover of that song is when Dennis Leary did it for his Unplugged on MTV.
- 40:44SPEAKER_15: I remember when they just all sat around just making the sounds with their mouths, and the guy comes out and he's like, What are you guys doing?
- 40:50SPEAKER_15: He's like, We're doing that Joe Jackson song.
- 40:52SPEAKER_15: It's even no instruments unplugged.
- 40:55SPEAKER_15: And then the guy walks away with his guitar, I told you.
- 41:00SPEAKER_10: Classic.
- 41:01SPEAKER_15: But it was it, but you gotta admit, it sounded pretty good.
- 41:04SPEAKER_15: I mean they were singing along and put, you know, mouthing all the instrument bars.
- 41:07SPEAKER_15: I was I was staring at it.
- 41:09SPEAKER_01: Oh, yeah.
- 41:10SPEAKER_01: Um so this, I have heard this, and this is really bad.
- 41:15SPEAKER_01: Um Puddle of Mud.
- 41:17SPEAKER_01: They did a cover of a Nirvana song about a girl a few years ago, actually, for Sirius XM.
- 41:23SPEAKER_01: Now, uh lead singer Wes Scantlin um he said it sucked.
- 41:28SPEAKER_01: He admitted that it sucked because um he let's see, seemed to be double down, he tried to enforce the emotion through his vocals that sounded painful.
- 41:38SPEAKER_01: The video was circulated all over the world with many viewers commenting how bad it was.
- 41:42SPEAKER_01: He admitted regret.
- 41:43SPEAKER_01: I was acclimating and it was a tiring day, and I had already performed five or six songs at one time.
- 41:49SPEAKER_01: By the time I got to that one, which I shouldn't have done because I cannot nail this song, I was a little tired.
- 41:55SPEAKER_01: It looked and sounded like total caca.
- 41:57SPEAKER_06: So, uh easy friend, I do with the head to real I do, thank you for this shoe.
- 42:10SPEAKER_06: I do, I do have a clue.
- 42:15SPEAKER_15: He's really struggling.
- 42:16SPEAKER_15: Yeah, he is.
- 42:17SPEAKER_15: You can tell.
- 42:19SPEAKER_06: You hang me out to try, I can see you every night, right.
- 42:30SPEAKER_01: As a as someone who's sung late at night when you've lost your voice, well, when you're doing stuff like this, they tend to do it either late at night or early in the morning.
- 42:42SPEAKER_10: Right.
- 42:42SPEAKER_15: And we've done both.
- 42:43SPEAKER_10: Yeah.
- 42:44SPEAKER_15: So I understand that struggling because you know, when it's like five o'clock in the morning they want you to perform, it's like, good God, man.
- 42:52SPEAKER_07: Yeah.
- 42:54SPEAKER_15: You know, and then after you've been playing for a while and they want you to do something else, you're like, well.
- 42:58SPEAKER_01: It's just the fact that it was on Sirius XM.
- 43:01SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 43:02SPEAKER_01: So everybody hurt heard it.
- 43:04SPEAKER_15: Yeah, and the it's worldwide then, so yeah.
- 43:07SPEAKER_01: Madonna's version of American Pie?
- 43:09SPEAKER_01: Have you ever heard that?
- 43:09SPEAKER_01: I don't think so.
- 43:11SPEAKER_15: Do I want to?
- 43:12SPEAKER_01: Well, it was in her You know what happened to Madonna?
- 43:15SPEAKER_01: My goodness.
- 43:16SPEAKER_07: She she let a demonic long time ago.
- 43:22SPEAKER_01: This was this was this era of Madonna was okay to me.
- 43:26SPEAKER_15: Was this like her Papa Don't Preach?
- 43:28SPEAKER_01: No, it was after that.
- 43:29SPEAKER_01: After that, I think it was in the late 90s, early 2000s, maybe.
- 43:35SPEAKER_15: Well, she still looked pretty great.
- 43:36SPEAKER_15: Yeah.
- 43:38SPEAKER_15: Have you seen her lately?
- 43:39SPEAKER_15: Oh, yeah, she I mean Demon Demon possessed her.
- 43:41SPEAKER_15: Something.
- 43:42SPEAKER_15: Something.
- 43:42SPEAKER_15: Yeah, she looks terrible.
- 43:45SPEAKER_15: Yeah, but this is this is not good.
- 43:57SPEAKER_01: This was in 2000.
- 44:07SPEAKER_01: It was about that time that she did the song Music.
- 44:13SPEAKER_01: Very electronic.
- 44:15SPEAKER_15: My favorite cover is Weird Owl.
- 44:18SPEAKER_01: Of American Pie.
- 44:20SPEAKER_15: American Pie.
- 44:20SPEAKER_15: I don't think I've heard that.
- 44:23SPEAKER_15: It's all about the first uh manifest.
- 44:30SPEAKER_15: Maybe later someday later, but now he's just a smaller.
- 44:33SPEAKER_13: I have heard that now that you say that.
- 44:36SPEAKER_01: Uh alright, so Ultimate Classic Rock uh gave a basically a thumbs down to this cover.
- 44:42SPEAKER_01: Uh I l I previewed this one.
- 44:45SPEAKER_01: I don't think it was that bad.
- 44:47SPEAKER_01: Uh Celine Dion and RB singer Anastasia.
- 44:52SPEAKER_01: Uh 2002 in Vegas.
- 44:54SPEAKER_01: Doing A C D Cong.
- 44:55SPEAKER_01: Yes, they're doing an AC DC song.
- 45:04SPEAKER_01: Crowd seems to love it.
- 45:05SPEAKER_15: Yeah, but it's they're there to see Celine Dion.
- 45:09SPEAKER_15: I mean, she could go up there and sing the ABCs and they'd be happy.
- 45:13SPEAKER_01: I mean, she's having fun.
- 45:15SPEAKER_00: Oh no.
- 45:43SPEAKER_13: Like leaves alone a little bit.
- 45:45SPEAKER_13: You know?
- 45:45SPEAKER_13: Yeah.
- 45:56SPEAKER_15: It actually sounds pretty good.
- 45:59SPEAKER_15: I actu you can actually understand the words.
- 46:03SPEAKER_15: So, you know, that's you know what I mean?
- 46:10SPEAKER_01: Whatever happened to Anastasia, I haven't heard about her for a while.
- 46:12SPEAKER_15: I know this is the first I've ever heard of her.
- 46:14SPEAKER_15: Oh really?
- 46:15SPEAKER_07: Yeah.
- 46:33SPEAKER_15: The song is dead.
- 46:35SPEAKER_01: Aerosmith Toys in the Attic.
- 46:37SPEAKER_15: Oh, isn't it?
- 46:38SPEAKER_01: By REM.
- 46:39SPEAKER_15: I knew it was R.E.M., but I couldn't understand what the song was.
- 46:44SPEAKER_01: It's it came out in a rarities album.
- 46:47SPEAKER_01: Called Dead Letter Office from 87.
- 46:50SPEAKER_15: Okay.
- 46:52SPEAKER_10: Well, it doesn't it doesn't suck.
- 46:55SPEAKER_10: I that's the thing.
- 46:57SPEAKER_13: I I actually it's actually pretty musical for REM.
- 47:01SPEAKER_01: I don't think any of them are terrible covers that we've heard so far.
- 47:05SPEAKER_01: Well there was a couple.
- 47:08SPEAKER_15: Um musically it was okay.
- 47:10SPEAKER_15: So it was just the vocals.
- 47:11SPEAKER_01: Do you know that you ever heard of the band Take the Bat uh Take That?
- 47:14SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 47:14SPEAKER_01: They're a British band?
- 47:15SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 47:16SPEAKER_01: Yeah, you probably know them from songs like this.
- 47:24SPEAKER_01: Basically a boy band.
- 47:26SPEAKER_01: A boy band.
- 47:26SPEAKER_01: But they they do play instruments.
- 47:27SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah.
- 47:32SPEAKER_15: This is true.
- 47:34SPEAKER_01: This is Gary Barlow on Lead Vocals.
- 47:36SPEAKER_01: This is one of their biggest hits.
- 47:38SPEAKER_01: Uh Back for Good.
- 47:44SPEAKER_05: Whatever I said, whatever I did, I didn't mean it.
- 47:49SPEAKER_05: I just want you back for good.
- 47:52unknown: Okay.
- 47:53SPEAKER_01: So that's what they're known for.
- 47:55SPEAKER_01: So uh they were in concert and they did my books tonight, Jason E.
- 48:02SPEAKER_01: They did this.
- 48:07SPEAKER_01: They asked if the crowd was ready to rock for one thing.
- 48:10SPEAKER_15: Okay.
- 48:13SPEAKER_10: Alright, he's too pretty to rock.
- 48:15SPEAKER_10: Oh look at him, yeah.
- 48:46SPEAKER_15: Okay, they're not even applying the music at this point, it's just because he ripped his shirt.
- 48:50SPEAKER_01: Right, it's a little unnecessary.
- 48:52SPEAKER_15: Yeah.
- 49:00SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 49:00SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah, I'm supposed to play this.
- 49:01SPEAKER_01: I'm supposed to play this.
- 49:23SPEAKER_01: Again, not terrible.
- 49:25SPEAKER_12: No, just out of place.
- 49:27SPEAKER_12: Yeah, it's just.
- 49:29SPEAKER_15: Well, it's not you're trying to be rockers when you're not really rockers.
- 49:36SPEAKER_15: You're not.
- 49:37SPEAKER_15: You're not rockers.
- 49:38SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 49:39SPEAKER_01: This one, I like.
- 49:41SPEAKER_15: Oh, is this uh uh uh unlucky uh the the that Ugly Kid Joe.
- 49:46SPEAKER_15: Ugly Kid Joe, thank you.
- 49:48SPEAKER_15: This was really pretty great, I thought.
- 49:50SPEAKER_01: The old Harry Chapin tune, Cat's Cradle.
- 49:52SPEAKER_15: Cats and Cradle, yeah.
- 49:52SPEAKER_15: This was I thought this was pretty great.
- 49:55SPEAKER_01: I did as well.
- 49:57SPEAKER_01: It got to number six on the hot 100.
- 50:02SPEAKER_01: It said Ultimate Classic Rock says that while the original was heartfelt folk rock classic, ugly kid Joe turned it into you guessed it, an angsty alternative tune.
- 50:11SPEAKER_01: In doing so, they stripped the song of Soul.
- 50:16SPEAKER_15: I don't I don't get that.
- 50:17SPEAKER_01: I don't either.
- 50:24SPEAKER_01: Now I do like the original better, but that's but I like this.
- 50:29SPEAKER_15: I think this is fun.
- 50:29SPEAKER_15: I thought this was pretty good.
- 50:36SPEAKER_15: They actually did a really killer version of War Pigs, too.
- 50:39SPEAKER_01: I heard that actually.
- 50:41SPEAKER_01: I'm skipping a couple of these, yeah.
- 50:43SPEAKER_01: Uh oh, yeah, this one's interesting.
- 50:45SPEAKER_01: So remember this guy.
- 50:50SPEAKER_15: Oh, yeah, Rockwell.
- 50:52SPEAKER_15: Yeah, yeah.
- 50:52SPEAKER_01: With Michael Jackson.
- 50:53SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 50:54SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 50:55SPEAKER_01: So Rockwell is watching the son of Who's Watching Me.
- 51:01SPEAKER_01: Do you know who do you know this?
- 51:02SPEAKER_01: Who Rockwell's dad is?
- 51:04SPEAKER_15: Uh somebody really famous.
- 51:05SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 51:06SPEAKER_15: Quincy Jones.
- 51:07SPEAKER_15: No.
- 51:08SPEAKER_01: Oh, you're so close.
- 51:10SPEAKER_15: Uh somebody like it's like a Quincy Jones type person.
- 51:15SPEAKER_01: Yeah, it's well, it wasn't a well no, I guess he was.
- 51:18SPEAKER_01: I don't know if he was a producer or not, but he was an owner.
- 51:20SPEAKER_01: Uh Barry Gordy.
- 51:21SPEAKER_01: Oh, Barry Gordy, yes.
- 51:22SPEAKER_01: Motown.
- 51:23SPEAKER_15: Yeah.
- 51:24SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 51:26SPEAKER_01: So this was a he was a one-hit wonder.
- 51:28SPEAKER_15: Yeah.
- 51:28SPEAKER_15: Never heard anything from him after this.
- 51:30SPEAKER_01: Yeah, let me just we'll just get a hear a little bit of uh I like this song.
- 51:33SPEAKER_15: The King of Pop is.
- 51:34SPEAKER_15: This is a pretty great song.
- 51:41SPEAKER_16: Of course, that's Michael Jackson.
- 51:42SPEAKER_16: Yeah.
- 51:42SPEAKER_01: And I love no brothers.
- 51:44SPEAKER_01: Um, so Rockwell did a cover.
- 51:50SPEAKER_01: Which seems out of place because his dad was very Gordy, so he wasn't hurting for money.
- 51:56SPEAKER_14: No.
- 51:57SPEAKER_01: But no.
- 52:01SPEAKER_01: Singing a song about financial hardship.
- 52:04SPEAKER_01: This is the Beatles Tax Man.
- 52:08SPEAKER_15: Yeah, but taxmen wasn't necessarily about financial hardship, it was about the overtaxing of any money that you make, which they were.
- 52:24SPEAKER_01: Which is rampant everywhere.
- 52:25SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 52:26SPEAKER_15: That's just a government worldwide thing.
- 52:29SPEAKER_01: And this is because this I think was a was a B-side to somebody's watching me.
- 52:35SPEAKER_01: But it fits that era.
- 52:37SPEAKER_15: Oh yeah.
- 52:38SPEAKER_15: Yeah.
- 52:39SPEAKER_15: I mean, of course I prefer, you know.
- 52:40SPEAKER_15: Of course.
- 52:41SPEAKER_15: The Beatle version, but tell you how it will be.
- 52:46SPEAKER_15: I mean, Stevie Ray did a great version of this.
- 52:49SPEAKER_15: Right.
- 52:49SPEAKER_03: So for Unitefoot.
- 52:52SPEAKER_01: This isn't terrible.
- 52:52SPEAKER_01: No, this this fits that time.
- 52:54SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 52:55SPEAKER_03: And Textman.
- 53:05SPEAKER_01: Alright, so this one, I I I do like this.
- 53:09SPEAKER_01: I don't normally like this guy.
- 53:11SPEAKER_15: Sounds like Marilyn Manson, I think.
- 53:12unknown: Right.
- 53:14SPEAKER_01: But this was an interesting take.
- 53:17SPEAKER_01: On the arithmetics.
- 53:19SPEAKER_15: Yeah.
- 53:21SPEAKER_01: Let's see what they say.
- 53:22SPEAKER_01: What they say.
- 53:25SPEAKER_01: Um something undoubtedly shocking about Sweet Dreams being reinterpreted as a dark and twisted industrial track.
- 53:34SPEAKER_01: Um Manson's cover became a breakout hit, earning him substantial radio play.
- 53:38SPEAKER_01: The Toon's Nightmares Music Video caught the attention of MTV.
- 53:41SPEAKER_01: All these things distract from one very important fact.
- 53:43SPEAKER_01: This update isn't very good.
- 53:46SPEAKER_01: Behind his makeup, costumes, and disturbing imagery, Manson is just making noise for the sake of making noise.
- 53:52SPEAKER_01: There's no purpose, and the juxtaposition of heartbreak and hope that was found in the original is wasted in Manson's hands.
- 53:59SPEAKER_15: You know, you don't necessarily have to Well, what heartbreak is in the original?
- 54:05SPEAKER_15: It didn't sound it I never got that out of that.
- 54:09SPEAKER_01: And not only that, maybe they just wanted to do a cool version of the song.
- 54:13SPEAKER_12: Yeah.
- 54:14SPEAKER_01: You know, I you don't have to analyze everything, every move, you know?
- 54:23SPEAKER_15: Well, I mean it's Marilyn Manson.
- 54:25SPEAKER_15: When I mean what what did you expect?
- 54:27SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 54:27SPEAKER_01: You know what's the most disturbing part about this?
- 54:30SPEAKER_01: Is the video.
- 54:30SPEAKER_15: Yeah.
- 54:31SPEAKER_01: The subsystem is fine.
- 54:33SPEAKER_15: Yeah, I mean, if we weren't watching this video, it'd be actually I'd be like, yeah, this is I've I actually digging, but the video is just like it's a typical Marilyn Manson video.
- 54:42SPEAKER_01: Yeah, what is it?
- 54:43SPEAKER_15: So he's just a whack job anyway.
- 54:44SPEAKER_01: He is a whack job.
- 54:46SPEAKER_01: Uh let's see, I don't want to get too far here because I don't know what we're doing for time, but uh Judas Priest did a version of Johnny Be Good for the movie Johnny Be Good.
- 54:54SPEAKER_01: Remember the movie, Johnny?
- 54:55SPEAKER_01: I remember that.
- 54:55SPEAKER_01: Yeah, Uma Thurman was in that movie.
- 54:57SPEAKER_01: Yeah, she was.
- 54:57SPEAKER_01: Yes, she was.
- 54:58SPEAKER_01: Uh Smash Mouth, I'm a believer.
- 55:00SPEAKER_01: I like this.
- 55:02SPEAKER_15: Yeah, I do too.
- 55:03SPEAKER_15: From Shrek.
- 55:04SPEAKER_01: It was pretty great.
- 55:05SPEAKER_01: Um uh uh Steve Harwell, the lead singer, rest in peace, just passed away.
- 55:17SPEAKER_01: But again, this is what that band does.
- 55:20SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 55:20SPEAKER_01: This is what they sound like.
- 55:22SPEAKER_01: So they're just doing this song as themselves.
- 55:25SPEAKER_15: Yeah, and it's it's pretty darn good.
- 55:27SPEAKER_15: I like it.
- 55:27SPEAKER_15: I think it's pretty great.
- 55:31SPEAKER_01: Um Ultimate Classic Rock did not like it.
- 55:35SPEAKER_01: Um It's like someone grabbed a Casio keyboard, switched the preset to 60s pop, then hit record.
- 55:44SPEAKER_01: Still, the cover of I'm a Believer was a huge success, reaching number 25 on the Billboard Hot 100.
- 55:49SPEAKER_01: Mercifully, it was Smash Mouse last hit.
- 55:52SPEAKER_01: I don't have a little fun in your life.
- 55:57SPEAKER_12: I see nothing wrong with this.
- 55:59SPEAKER_15: This is actually pretty I mean the video is just a joke.
- 56:02SPEAKER_15: Alright, they're having fun.
- 56:03SPEAKER_15: They're having fun.
- 56:03SPEAKER_15: It's a cartoon! It was a cartoon movie! I mean, come on, man.
- 56:08SPEAKER_15: Light up a little bit.
- 56:11SPEAKER_01: Uh let's see.
- 56:13SPEAKER_01: The Ataris, the Boys of Summer.
- 56:14SPEAKER_01: I'm not gonna play it.
- 56:15SPEAKER_01: Kelly Osborne, Papa Don't Preach.
- 56:17SPEAKER_15: Oh yeah, I remember that.
- 56:19SPEAKER_15: Well, I mean, it's Kelly Osborne.
- 56:20SPEAKER_01: What are you gonna do?
- 56:21SPEAKER_01: Godsmack's Rocky Mountain Way.
- 56:23SPEAKER_01: Have you ever heard of it?
- 56:24SPEAKER_15: Godsmack did that.
- 56:25SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 56:26SPEAKER_01: Really?
- 56:26SPEAKER_01: Um, let's see.
- 56:27SPEAKER_01: It was a bonus track, now I like Joe Walsh's better.
- 56:47SPEAKER_15: Yeah, but this This is pretty good.
- 56:53SPEAKER_01: See, I think they're just I think it's clickbait.
- 56:55SPEAKER_01: I think, you know, they say terrible cover versions just so that they can have a story.
- 56:58SPEAKER_15: Oh, sure, yeah.
- 57:07SPEAKER_15: I don't see anything wrong with this.
- 57:08SPEAKER_15: I don't either.
- 57:08SPEAKER_15: I like it.
- 57:09SPEAKER_15: This is pretty good, actually.
- 57:11SPEAKER_15: And I'm not even a fan of God's mask.
- 57:14SPEAKER_01: I almost think that we play I played this on the show when we were on the radio.
- 57:17SPEAKER_15: Oh, we probably did.
- 57:18SPEAKER_15: And this is Oh, is this disturbs uh be interested to see what they say about it because I like this?
- 57:25SPEAKER_15: I thought it was pretty good.
- 57:27SPEAKER_01: Let's see.
- 57:29SPEAKER_01: Stylistically, the two acts couldn't be more different, but disturbed frontman uh David Draymond nevertheless holds Simon the Garfuckle in high regard.
- 57:36SPEAKER_01: Disturbs cover, the sound of silence, caught a lot of people off guard, especially in concert.
- 57:40SPEAKER_01: The disturbed fanbase typically reacted in a combination of elation and shock.
- 57:45SPEAKER_01: Lots of people were very into it.
- 57:47SPEAKER_01: Some people immediately called it a sellout move.
- 57:50SPEAKER_01: And um it introduced a whole new generation of fans to the brilliance of Simon the Garfuckel.
- 57:55SPEAKER_01: Their version was a surprise hit reaching number one on the mainstream rock chart and number 42 on the Hot 100.
- 58:02SPEAKER_01: Still, its overdramatic arrangement is a little much.
- 58:05SPEAKER_01: Stick with the subtle genius of the original.
- 58:11SPEAKER_01: That's a little nitpicky.
- 58:13SPEAKER_01: I think so too.
- 58:13SPEAKER_01: I'm that's the thing.
- 58:14SPEAKER_15: I think they're just must be just looking for a Well, I mean, I suppose it's it's it's akin to like when we rip on people for Taylor Swimmer.
- 58:27SPEAKER_05: Right.
- 58:28SPEAKER_05: Or Nickelback.
- 58:29SPEAKER_15: For Nickelback, yeah.
- 58:30SPEAKER_15: I mean, I will forever rip on Nickelback.
- 58:33SPEAKER_15: But, you know, I don't it's tongue in cheek.
- 58:35SPEAKER_15: It's it's I don't know.
- 58:38SPEAKER_15: I'm not a fan of Nickelback and I like to rip on Nickelback, but you know, if I met them, I'm sure they're lovely people.
- 58:44SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 58:44SPEAKER_15: You know?
- 58:45SPEAKER_01: I'm not oh speaking of Nickelback.
- 58:47SPEAKER_01: Oh, here's one that we did play on the show, and I thought it was okay.
- 58:52SPEAKER_01: Speaking of Nickelback.
- 58:56SPEAKER_01: Nickelback and Kid Rock.
- 58:58SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah.
- 59:01SPEAKER_01: Yeah, yeah.
- 59:03SPEAKER_01: This was not bad.
- 59:07SPEAKER_01: And did you know that the solo on this song is Dimeback?
- 59:12SPEAKER_01: Is it Dimeback?
- 59:12SPEAKER_01: It is.
- 59:13SPEAKER_01: I didn't know that.
- 59:36SPEAKER_01: I do like it when Kid Rock comes in.
- 59:38SPEAKER_01: I mean, just you know.
- 59:42SPEAKER_01: It's one of the few Nickelback songs I can I can stand.
- 59:45SPEAKER_15: Yeah, I mean I I didn't I never minded this.
- 59:47SPEAKER_01: And I and I told you, and we've talked about this before.
- 59:51SPEAKER_01: Uh we uh we both dogged on Nickelback, and I think it was because they were overexposed.
- 59:55SPEAKER_12: Well, you couldn't uh you couldn't get away from them.
- 59:57SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 59:58SPEAKER_12: I mean everything was nickelback, nickelback, nickelback, nickelback.
- 1:00:01SPEAKER_12: I'm like, no.
- 1:00:02SPEAKER_01: But remember I saw I saw them at uh I didn't see them in person, but I saw them at Sturgis, the motorcycle rally.
- 1:00:09SPEAKER_01: Great band.
- 1:00:10SPEAKER_15: Yeah, I mean I'm not I you know I rip on them, but I mean they're great musicians and they put on a great show.
- 1:00:15SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:00:16SPEAKER_15: I just don't care number one, I don't care for them.
- 1:00:19SPEAKER_01: Because a lot of their songs are they sound the same.
- 1:00:22SPEAKER_01: They all the same, yeah.
- 1:00:23SPEAKER_01: So I want to get to the guitar solo.
- 1:00:56SPEAKER_01: Yeah, no, I dug that one, and I do remember playing it on the show.
- 1:01:00SPEAKER_01: Uh I'm not even gonna play some of these.
- 1:01:02SPEAKER_01: Paris Hilton, do you think I'm sexy?
- 1:01:04SPEAKER_01: Yes, that is a terrible cover.
- 1:01:05SPEAKER_01: I haven't even heard it.
- 1:01:06SPEAKER_15: Paris Hilton, I mean, come on.
- 1:01:08SPEAKER_15: How great can it be?
- 1:01:09SPEAKER_01: Oh, I've never heard this.
- 1:01:11SPEAKER_01: Rob Zombie.
- 1:01:13SPEAKER_01: This will be the last one.
- 1:01:19SPEAKER_01: Can you guess the song?
- 1:01:21SPEAKER_15: Not yet.
- 1:01:30SPEAKER_01: I like it.
- 1:01:31SPEAKER_01: Wait till you hear what it is.
- 1:01:34SPEAKER_15: Summertime blue.
- 1:01:38SPEAKER_01: It doesn't sound a lot like the original.
- 1:01:49SPEAKER_15: Oh, it's over bottles.
- 1:01:50SPEAKER_15: Yeah, it's great.
- 1:01:54SPEAKER_10: I've never heard this.
- 1:02:09SPEAKER_01: It's not great, but it's like it's like the riff as its own song.
- 1:02:13SPEAKER_15: Like a like a bad I don't I don't like how he's doing it vocally.
- 1:02:19SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 1:02:19SPEAKER_01: Well that's Rob's zombie.
- 1:02:20SPEAKER_06: Yeah.
- 1:02:23SPEAKER_01: And I do like the original better.
- 1:02:25SPEAKER_01: Oh yeah.
- 1:02:25SPEAKER_01: But but I like what he did with it, I guess.
- 1:02:28SPEAKER_12: Uh it's not terrible.
- 1:02:30SPEAKER_01: I think you could take that riff though.
- 1:02:32SPEAKER_01: I think you could make a different song.
- 1:02:34SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:02:34SPEAKER_01: I think that's that would be kind of cool.
- 1:02:36SPEAKER_01: So anyway, that's uh that's a a few of the uh terrible covers according to Ultimate Classic Rock.
- 1:02:42SPEAKER_01: I I don't think they're all terrible.
- 1:02:45SPEAKER_01: That they're all terrible.
- 1:02:47SPEAKER_15: I think that's just you know, that's just them trying to create uh traffic.
- 1:02:51SPEAKER_01: Yeah, I agree.
- 1:02:52SPEAKER_01: Oh Michael McDonald.
- 1:02:54SPEAKER_01: Time for our Michael McDonald moment.
- 1:03:00SPEAKER_10: Delicious.
- 1:03:01SPEAKER_01: Delicious.
- 1:03:02SPEAKER_01: Um so I looked and looked and looked for some sort of uh tidbit on uh Michael McDonald.
- 1:03:12SPEAKER_01: And the best that I could come up with is to talk about uh how awesome he is.
- 1:03:21SPEAKER_01: So we do that's what this Michael McDonald moment is about, because Michael McDonald is awesome! Iconic.
- 1:03:28SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 1:03:29SPEAKER_01: Um so I found when Michael McDonald joined the Doobie Brothers, the story of that.
- 1:03:37SPEAKER_01: Okay.
- 1:03:38SPEAKER_01: And I I picked a song that we're gonna focus on from the Doobie Brothers.
- 1:03:44SPEAKER_01: So uh this little write-up.
- 1:03:47SPEAKER_01: Although working with Steely Dan was a dream come true, the band never intended to have Mike McDonald join them full time because he did like background vocals.
- 1:03:55SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:03:55SPEAKER_01: He w did Peg and I'm not sure.
- 1:03:57SPEAKER_01: He might have played keyboards on a couple things.
- 1:03:59SPEAKER_15: Oh, I'm sure he did.
- 1:04:00SPEAKER_01: Um this was uh his fellow band member Jeff Skunk Baxter, who was also in Steely Dan.
- 1:04:07SPEAKER_01: My genius.
- 1:04:08SPEAKER_01: Yep.
- 1:04:08SPEAKER_01: Uh, he left to join the Doobie Brothers.
- 1:04:11SPEAKER_01: So Skunk joined the Doobie Brothers before Michael McDonald did.
- 1:04:14SPEAKER_01: I didn't know that.
- 1:04:14SPEAKER_01: Yes.
- 1:04:15SPEAKER_01: And because he needed a steady gig.
- 1:04:18SPEAKER_15: And me working for the Defense Department wasn't a steady gig.
- 1:04:22SPEAKER_01: Apparently.
- 1:04:24SPEAKER_01: Maybe he wasn't doing what they what he wanted to do.
- 1:04:27SPEAKER_01: I don't know.
- 1:04:27SPEAKER_15: Or maybe he just finished up.
- 1:04:28SPEAKER_15: He's like, alright.
- 1:04:30SPEAKER_15: You guys got this?
- 1:04:31SPEAKER_15: Alright, I gotta go play some music.
- 1:04:32SPEAKER_15: Right.
- 1:04:33SPEAKER_01: So, not long after Jeff Baxter joined the Doobie Brothers, um, the lead singer Tom Johnson got sick.
- 1:04:40SPEAKER_01: And couldn't couldn't tour, couldn't, you know, perform.
- 1:04:46SPEAKER_01: Um so it was Jeff Strunk Baxter who said, Hey, I know a guy that was just in this band with Michael McDonald.
- 1:04:55SPEAKER_01: Um was completely different than Tom Johnston, obviously.
- 1:04:58SPEAKER_01: Because Tom Johnson, you're thinking of listening to the music or China Grove.
- 1:05:02SPEAKER_01: Right.
- 1:05:02SPEAKER_01: You know, very rockin'.
- 1:05:03SPEAKER_01: Yeah.
- 1:05:04SPEAKER_01: And and McDonald had a like a distinct RB thing.
- 1:05:10SPEAKER_01: Um but they needed to act fast.
- 1:05:13SPEAKER_01: So in 75, McDonald joined and wrote most of the material for their album, Taking It to the Streets, which came out a year later.
- 1:05:22SPEAKER_01: So uh the next three years marked a turn in sound and the most popular era of the Doobie Brothers.
- 1:05:30SPEAKER_01: Go figure.
- 1:05:31SPEAKER_01: Uh he ushered in, according to this, the period of soft, polished rock and blue-eyed soul.
- 1:05:37SPEAKER_01: Their popularity skyrocketed with the release of the 1978 album, Minute by Minute, and it seemed as if Michael McDonald started an easy listening revolution.
- 1:05:49SPEAKER_01: Now, that's the one I wanted to actually focus on.
- 1:05:52SPEAKER_01: Minute by minute.
- 1:05:53SPEAKER_15: That's a great song.
- 1:05:54SPEAKER_01: Uh
- 1:06:00SPEAKER_15: Definite departure from Oh yeah.
- 1:06:04SPEAKER_01: So constant touring and the production of three albums within three years pushed the band to the brink.
- 1:06:10SPEAKER_01: Tensions ran high, creative differences grew.
- 1:06:13SPEAKER_01: By early 79, three members left.
- 1:06:16SPEAKER_01: The McDonald's sound had become an albatross, making the remaining members feel like nothing more than his backup band.
- 1:06:23SPEAKER_01: I guess I can understand that.
- 1:06:24SPEAKER_15: I can understand that, yeah.
- 1:06:29SPEAKER_01: So the band called it quits in 82.
- 1:06:32SPEAKER_01: Reunited in five years after that.
- 1:06:59SPEAKER_01: It's great.
- 1:07:05SPEAKER_01: Is he?
- 1:07:05SPEAKER_01: I think so.
- 1:07:06SPEAKER_15: It might be, yeah.
- 1:07:16SPEAKER_15: Yeah, great song.
- 1:07:18SPEAKER_15: Great, great song.
- 1:07:21SPEAKER_01: Um so yeah, that is our Michael McDonald moment for episode 177.
- 1:07:30SPEAKER_01: I think it's time we uh we take a break.
- 1:07:33SPEAKER_01: Um turn it over to Cousin Larry.
- 1:07:35SPEAKER_01: We were going to uh we were going to record uh um those commercials again.
- 1:07:40SPEAKER_01: We should do that at some point.

- 1:30:54SPEAKER_01: Time marches on.
- 1:30:55SPEAKER_15: It does, it does, you know, and it's it's everybody gets wrapped up in their own lives, and you know this stuff just goes to the side.
- 1:30:59SPEAKER_15: No, I don't sideways.
- 1:31:00SPEAKER_01: I don't fault him, and I'm sure he doesn't fault me, but I mean it's just it's just a sad.
