LATER THIS SUMMER: |
(the listings follow this format: Artist Name / Song Name / Album Name / Album Year / Comments)
Men At Work / Overkill
/ Brazil / 1998 re-release / Drew: Ashley says that these guys are
all professors in Australia now. I dunno... Bruce: That's
rubbish. One or two of them are. There were 6 members of this band. I'm sure
the others are farming goat or something. Never cared for these buggers when
I was young, but this song is really well done.
John Walsh & The Sinkholes / I Got You / Antimatter Eisenhower / 1997 / Drew: Buddy of mine from WAAY back. Nice poppy music.
REM / Folk Song 89 / Stand
CD3 single / 1988 / Bruce: A nice and semi-rare acoustic version of
one of their more inconsequential lyrics. The video for the album version
had a topless Michael Stipe, with black bars covering his nippleage.
Foreigner / Juke
Box Hero / The Very Best and Beyond / 1992 / Drew: Bruce loves Foreigner.
Bruce: And Foreigner loves Drew, so by the transitory
property of love, Bruce loves Drew.
Ashley Peacock
/ Little Known II / Trespass 491 / 2001 / Bruce: Ash said this was
the least radio-friendly cut on this, his latest CD, so we went for it. And
it had some parts of "Lady" by Styx in there too...
Dream Girls / Everybody Let's Party / unreleased / 2001 / Bruce:
"I just can't get enough. I just can't get enough..."
Ashley Peacock / Girl With the Serious Face / Live, in studio! / 2001 / Drew: An awesome in-studio performance by Ashley.
Cowboy Junkies /
I'm So Open / Open / 2001 / Bruce: When did the Cowboy Junkies decide
to be happy again?
Squeeze / Squabs on
45 / B-Side to Labelled with Love / 1982 / Bruce: Who knew they had
so many tracks near the same tempo?!? Fun.
Ashley Peacock / Etcetera Whatever / What It Takes To Please You -- A Tribute To Over the Rhine / 2001 / Drew: Ashley's contribution to the Tribute CD project that should be completed within 30 days.
Peter Gabriel / Shaking
The Tree / Shaking the Tree / 1990 / Drew: Peter Gabriel's music is
so richly textured and melodic. I just wish I could find the studio version
of OVO! Bruce: Yeah, and I wish I could find my washed up trailer after
the floods last night. Well, we all have dreams.
