Listening to Tom Waits’ Foreign Affairs (‘77) in my ongoing quest to listen to every record I own. Anyway. I always imagine David Lee Roth singing many of these songs. It’s the old timey showbiz thing they share. I like to think TW split into 2 ppl, Jekyll/Hyde style.

Anyway, for me Foreign Affairs is the most overlooked of the pre-Rain Dogs LPs. Plus DLR is singing half the tunes in my head, and I get to go on this little ride each time. PLUS I get to speculate what DLR contemporaneous bad ass woman would sing the duet?! Lita Ford? A keeper.

nb-DLR can throat-sing multiple tones, so if he won’t cover one of Tom’s songs from this LP, I’ll settle for TW inviting DLR to a recording session as another instrument in his toolbox. Should I bring my fuckin tools?! Cmon guys, this isn’t hard. The truth will set you free!

Climbed that thing a dozen times pre-development, early 80s. Great view. Shot 8mm film in the abandoned warehouse nearby that became Shooters. Some homeless guy lived in an office on the 2nd floor with bedding, clock, chair, and a collection of clown masks - good times.

Overnight: Two men were detained by CPD for about 20 minutes after CPD caught them climbing the old railroad bridge next to Shooters. Don't do this...

Omg I forgot how gawdawful Rock and Roll Animal was.And I have a high tolerance for Bad Lou. And Ig’s “Party.” I’ve had this damn LP for 40 yrs & winced through its entirety every time. Except “Lady Day,” that’s decent. Today it finally goes in the sell pile.

Fun fact confirmed while working at Suma this weekend… When Pere Ubu wanted some crowd noise for “Chinese Radiation” on their debut, engineer Ken Hamann pulled one of the multitrack reels for Grand Funk’s live album and dubbed it onto the Ubu song. Worlds in Collision indeed

Who is the best fictional band of all time? Choose wisely and yes we will be making a March Madness-style bracket for this.

I did some Doordashing tonight. Last thing I expected was to pick up cheesesteaks in West Park & deliver to East Cleveland. Or to go from Tremont to Cle Hts. Weird.

PSA for the symphonically-curious. Frequent resident of the $1 bin. Nab it. Or pay more. I’m a huge RVW fan. The Sigur Ros of early 20thC English composers, and the swells here are mythic. If you dig folk music of the Isles, Canterbury scene, it’ll hit you in the soft spot.

Nachtmystium seems a good call post Pentagram. Genre challenging LP, so I keep coming back to it. Probably as pop as BM gets outside of Alcest. First half is gold, aside from the only intro on a metal LP I intentionally skip. The darkwave vibe of No Funeral kills me every time.

As long as we’re going rando, your semi-annual reminder that the best version of “Under My Thumb” is by Pentagram. Growing up in the 70s, my mom’s most hated songs were that, Coop’s Only Women Bleed & My Way. Righteous. 1 tune the Stones made better: Solomon Burke’s Cry to Me.

“Wow, if you can quit smoking, anybody can.” Ok, yes, tks, but… this is not the compliment you may think it is. If you’re thinking about saying that to someone, do not. It’s complicated. 6 wks in now, not going back unless diagnosed with something else that’ll kill me anyway.
