Just saw the new video by Thompson Square for “I Got You,” their follow up to “Are You Gonna Kiss Me or Not.” It’s a real hoot! Although the title is similar to Sonny & Cher’s “I Got You, Babe,” it is not a remake of the song. However, the couple do a spot-on parody of “The Sonny & Cher Show.” It is hilarious! Check it out!
BTW, the self-titled album, “Thompson Square” by Thompson Square is a very solid debut album that has a very tight country/rock sound!

Please quit taking my precious“Taxman” song by The Beatles hostage every tax day. It’s bad enough that I have to get my taxes in, let alone I have to hear snippets of that song all day long every year when it gets close to the filing date. There are other versions of it out sthere that can be sampled. Use those instead. I don’t want it to get to the point where I don’t want to hear it anymore-much like “Monster Mash” by Bobby “Boris” Pickett, because that’s the only Halloween song most people know. JUST STOP IT!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just listened to some tracks from the recent releases by Tres Mountains and Los Lonely Boys. I like them and they seem to me to be very derivative of Band of Gypsys-the band fronted by Jimi Hendrix and Buddy Miles. That is good company to be associated with! Rock on!!!!
While I’ve been typing this, I’ve been listening to “Folk Music from Venezuela” by Huascar Barradas y Maracaibo. (With long generous pauses, of course, to analyze it and read the liner notes.) It’s kind of “new agey” with complicated rhythm changes and a tremendous amount of flute. The liner notes, of which there are plenty, trace the histories of many of the dances and folk music on the CD. Very peaceful! I like it!
