After hearing a great live show last night from Flat Rock Revival, I am still feeling in the mood to rock. My aging body won’t stay awake long enough to do more than post this great tune. Here is a live version from 1972 of The Faces doing “Miss Judy’s Farm“.
I can’t believe how underrated this band has been over the years! They are one of my all time favorites.
A while back G-Man and I attended a Will Hoge concert here in Nashville. On our way out of the venue we were handed a copy each of a free CD. I have never been one to turn down something free, especially free tunes.
When I first listened to this disc I was stunned. I wish I could tell you that it was amazing. It was the complete opposite of amazing. It was pure turds and vomit. The music itself wasn’t too terrible but the vocals, yikes! I mean sure the guy can’t sing to save his life but the lyrics…oh my goodness, are they just horrendous. Here is an example:
The flesh is sizzling,
Limb muscles twitching,
Deep tissues pulling where the boiling blood anoints.
The bones are cracking,
The cracks leak marrow,
Bubbling as the firebarbs pry the joints.
Beautiful stuff, right? Man is that nasty. The artist is Rich Shapero from his album called The Ram: Wild Animus. From what I understand this is the first of 3 concept albums that go along with a book about a guy who turns into a ram. I am not making this stuff up ya’ll. Maybe it would have been better if there was at least one chorus on the album. I couldn’t find one.
If you go to this guy’s website you can listen to and download the entire album for free I think. Click here to make your ears bleed.
As a joke I gave this CD to Uncle Grizz. I let him know that it was not good but it was so bad in fact that when was finished he should randomly pass it to someone he knows to share this monstosity of craptastic noise and tell them to do the same when they were finished. It has been about a year since I gave him the disc and it has now made its way back me. The best part for me was to see Grizz’s note that was stuck to the front, I think it says it all.
Who wants my copy. I am definitely willing to part with it…again!
I saw this several places this past week but over here first.
Apparently I am just one heck of a husband…in the 1930s…

Why don’t you see how well you do. Just dare to be better than me!
Last night we all headed to downtown Nashville for the CD release party of local artists Flat Rock Revival. All of you who missed the show should be kicking yourselves. It was standing room only. They managed to sell out of Bud Light & Miller Light. Dang there were a lot of people there last night.
