Great imagery in that song.<BR/><BR/>Hot Lemon-<BR/>I'd had enough of Christmas music by the first day of the Christmas season.<BR/><BR/>TenS-<BR/>I saw your post about the turntable. I saw one of those at Urban Outfitters. Very cool!<BR/><BR/>Another of my Marshall Crenshaw favorites is "Your My Favorite Waste of Time." It's on "Attack of the Killer B's," a collection of great B-sides from the seventies and eighties. <BR/><BR/>Distributorcap-<BR/>Not only do I know Phil Ochs, I'm a huge fan! Do you have "Farewells and Fantasies," the great box set that was issued in the mid-ninties? It's wonderful-- most of what was ever issued on his records.<BR/><BR/>Phil took his own life in 1976. Tragically, his country idol, Faron Young, also did so a couple of years ago. <BR/><BR/>On the LP "The Essential Phil Ochs," Ed Sanders, normally a very irreverent guy, wrote a beautiful piece about Phil. It's worth seeking out.<BR/><BR/>I agree with you on him re: Dylan. You've probably heard the infamous story of Dylan kicking Phil out of his car during and argument. It's in the Wikipedia article about Phil.Johnny Yenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06561248220244037567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33543511.post-9006804244776275152008-01-05T05:32:00.000-06:002008-01-05T05:32:00.000-06:00PHIL OCHS!another person who knows PO!he killed hi...PHIL OCHS!<BR/><BR/>another person who knows PO!<BR/><BR/>he killed himself in the late 70s -- always liked phil ochs --- in many ways better than DylanDistributorcaphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10149154929149577121noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33543511.post-28718495573072400502008-01-04T20:15:00.000-06:002008-01-04T20:15:00.000-06:00Revelation. The first album I played was Marshall ...Revelation. The first album I played was Marshall Crenshaw "Downtown." I played it solely to hear "Blues is King." I love Marshall Crenshaw. His music is definitely part of who I am. Same night, later, and you can check with Lulu, I chose my favorite breakup album of all time, 'Til Tuesday/Coming Up Close. Long story, British dude, dreams crushed, narrated by Aimee Mann. Well, and you already know the Ramones and The Clash addictions of mine, topped off with sprinkles of "I lived in the South dB's."
