Uncle Michael's avatar View Uncle Michael's profile Favoriting

Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

Avatar 12:16pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

I hope quoting Townshend @ length is not too much :
“I only played with Charlie once, when he drummed for Ronnie Lane and me on our Rough Mix album. We did two faultless live takes (no overdubs at all) of my song ‘My Baby Gives It Away’. His technique was obvious immediately, the hi-hat always slightly late, and the snare drumstick held in the flat of the left hand, underpowered to some extent, lazy-loose, super-cool. The swing on the track is explosive. I’ve never enjoyed playing with a drummer quite so much. Of course that brings up Keith Moon, who was so different to Charlie. At Keith’s funeral Charlie surprised me by openly weeping, and I remember wishing I could wear my heart on my sleeve like that. I was tightened up like a snare drum myself.
Charlie lived a quiet life in the English countryside. He had a London bolthole in St James’s for many years which I think he used mainly to visit his tailor and buy paintings. He is the exemplar of the perfect marriage, still married to his art-school girlfriend who he married secretly in 1964. I understand he lived a quiet and respectable life on the road as well. I know that like me he wasn’t mad on touring, but that wry smile of his – that hid a mischievous side to him that few us saw – could turn into the most beautiful wide-mouthed laugh at very little urging. I could make him smile simply by talking about growing up following my father Cliff’s post-war dance band. Charlie loved the ‘real’ music of that era.
I’ve said here that his playing on ‘My Baby Gives It Away’ was flawless. I have suddenly remembered that he had trouble with the clipped ending. On the second take he nailed it, but was so shocked he had managed it that he burst into laughter and fell off his stool. That was a Keith Moon stunt, ask any drummer what they most dread doing and they will probably reply that they never want to fall off their stool.”

Hi, Uncle Michael! I de-lurk for "Suavecito," one of my favorite hit singles of the year — wait for it — 1972.

UM, way back when, when i was riding road tubulars in New Mexico (goathead capital of the world), i would patch tubs on the side of the road. meaning i would find the leak, unstich the threads, patch the tube, sew it back up, re-mount it, continue riding. i don't even remember if i simply carried a spare tire

oh i know it UM. i don't recall if i had a spare at the time (on the bike), or if multiple flats required roadside repair, and the only pics i can find of me at that time with that bike are after i switched to clinchers. i just know i repaired tubs roadside a few times. didn't take super long, maybe 10 minutes. heck, i know people who take longer to deal with flat clinchers!

Michael, I saw Los Lobos on the night they played their first show outside of East Los Angeles. It was opening for Public Images at the Olympic Auditorium in 1980. It's safe to say this was on par with the rowdiest backyard party in Boyle Heights. But still, the toughest gangsters from Primera Flats don't spit and throw beer cans. They only got better and better. iViva Los Lobos de Este Los Angeles!
