oasis new LP-BUY IT!-Dig Out Your Soul

So, my pal, just gave me a copy of the new Oasis record. Grand stuff!
There are a couple of sluggers on the new LP, but overall, it's pretty darn good.


Here are some of my other favorite OASIS tunes. I'm especially nuts about
Heathen Chemistry.

1. Little By Little
2. Song Bird
3. Born on a Different Cloud
4. Stop Crying Your Heart Out
(all off Heathen Chemistry)
5. Let There Be Love
Honorable Mention-Lyla

Zak Starkey is playing drums on the new record, which is also pretty rad.
But, in true Oasis fashion, he was fired like all
the other drummers who have come before him.

mods and the rockers

Today, we are helping some dear friends at Lambretta Works open their vintage scooter shop.

It's a family fun affair, with DJ GO GO Guillermo spinning psych and soul from 730-9PM, and we go on right after.

Lambretta Works is located in the Mission at

3265 17th St.
San Francisco, CA 94110

Bring your scoot, and shake a tail feather. And for those who are interested in purchasing a vintage Lammy, this will be an excellent time to come and sniff the merchandise.

Revolver Fact...

Anyway I just found out an interesting fact on Wikipedia. Capitol released Yesterday and Today in June 1966 which includes 3 tracks that appear on the British Version of Revolver which wasn't released until August 1966. So basically America got to hear I'm Only Sleeping, Doctor Robert, & And Your Bird Can Sing before before the Brits!

Jeremy's Top Ten Beatles Songs

Parties rehearsals as of late have been great as we prepare to release our new record. Adam is an awesome guitar player, watch out for our dueling 12 strings! So we've been tightening up all the tunes on the record but we've also been having a little fun playing all kinds of covers, some for real like who tunes and kinks tunes, but most of the time we're just fucking around. We did rock n' roll by led zeppelin the other night, the INXS Kick record, and a bunch of hair metal tunes, but last Tuesday night we played a Beatles tune and it was bad ass! So we are going to cover it. I told the band that it was in my top ten of all Beatles songs and I got to thinking, well is it? With so many rad songs could I actually condense this list into 10 songs? Here's my first try...

10. Tomorrow Never Knows
9. I Feel Fine
8. Dr. Robert
7. I'm Only Sleeping
6. You've Got to Hide Your Love Away
5.  I Should've Known Better
4. If I Needed Someone
3. She Said, She Said
2. Rain
1. And Your Bird Can Sing

It's kind of Revolver heavy! Songs on that just missed the cut...Lovely Rita, Don't Let Me Down, Ballad of John and Yoko, Across the Universe, Don't Bother Me, You Can't Do that, Sexy Sadie.

John? Adam? Rex? Maybe we can get a band consensus.
