What a deliciously understated arrangement the tune has: basically 96% bass with some of the tastiest clean rhythm pickup guitar lickin' i've heard in a while, lathered up with those haunting 70s strings... <br /><br />coulda lifted that sax solo straight from a springsteen record, huh? born to run was only 3 years prior.<br /><br />gimme ack shawn!Duff Fergusonhttp://www.amplitudecreative.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9126042325422293178.post-60766933527603296402010-03-25T06:38:04.473-07:002010-03-25T06:38:04.473-07:00WOW that clip is gold.

It starts with the driving scene from Taxi Driver and then has a woman who looks exactly like Billy idol circa 1987 in drag (in gold lemay no less), including short spiked hair and a very disturbing sneer and raised eyebrow. A little upsetting actually.Benbarton1https://www.blogger.com/profile/06167737587892657199noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9126042325422293178.post-24169187050242311672010-03-24T22:24:55.235-07:002010-03-24T22:24:55.235-07:00He's right, Jeff's students and business a...He's right, Jeff's students and business associates ... the man was straight up straight edge.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08533739589385430696noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9126042325422293178.post-77919787330378562682010-03-24T21:58:13.647-07:002010-03-24T21:58:13.647-07:00I knew it was bad weed because they were always co...I knew it was bad weed because they were always complaining that they couldn't get high off it.

I wonder what it says about our generation that our formative memories are all from that bizarre decade? <br /><br />Yes on the clip. Thank you so much for the clip. I (heart) the clip.<br /><br />But Jeff -- are you telling me that at the tender, innocent little age of 8 you were able not only to identify homegrown weed but also ascertain its quality? You held out on me for the whole 80s!!<br /><br />(I think I know now why Craiger sleeps so well these days.)Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08533739589385430696noreply@blogger.com
