Providing Musical Distractions for our Sick, Sad World
Song of the Day: Tronzo and Gabrels – Not Gonna Happen From Dave Tronzo’s Bandcamp site: “All the music on this albums was composed spontaneously as it was being recorded. This was the first meeting between Reeves and Tronzo.” We don’t know about you but, that makes the stunning precision and almost telepathic interplay of …
Video of the Day: Brian Eno – Just Another Day We love Brian Eno and also Time Lapse photography so this was a natural choice to continue the Another Day theme we seem to be having today. Enjoy.
Song of the Day: Brave Combo – Fascination/In-a-Gadda-Da-vida The Brave Combo may be known as a sort of New Wave Polka band but, they really were not limited to Polkas, rather they experimented with many types of world musc, Tangos, Cha-Chas, Mambos – stuff like that. Their version of the old Iron Butterfly classic which …
Song of the Day: House of Freaks – Black Cat Bone Our Song of the Day today is a pounding, frenzied rocker from relatively unknown 2 man band (guitar, drums) House of Freaks. From their 1988 debut album Monkey on a Chain Gang, it’s the perfect song to blast on the 8-track in your Cadillac …
Videos of the Day Starring Carlene Carter Carlene Carter is Johnny Cash’s step-daughter and Nick Lowe’s ex-wife and somehow still not as well known as she deserves to be. Her catalogue is filled with under heard gems but, she had a couple of major career highlights as a duet partner. First up, this obscure Infinite …
Song of the Day: The BusBoys – Johnny Soul’d Out The BusBoys had a tricky concept to pull off. Their service industry stage wear and their Black guys doing old fashioned Rock & Roll walked a thin line between parody and “um, I don’t get it”. But, their first album, Minimum Wage Rock & Roll …
Song of the Day: Graham Parker and the Rumour – Endless Night This frantic rave-up is from Graham Parker‘s last album with his great backing band The Rumour (until their 2012 reunion), The Up Escalator (1980). We are featuring it because it is a song even some Parker fan’s may not be familiar with, a shoulda been hit …
Video of the Day: The Dust Brothers featuring Tyler Durden – This is You Life (from Fight Club) This is Your Life and it’s ending one minute at as time. Cheers. A very well done lyric video. Thanks to the original poster.
Song of the Day: Tonio K. – The funky Western Civilization “Just because we’re hypnotized, that don’t mean we can’t dance” is Tonio K.‘s arch solution to dealing with the Sick Sad World we (still) live in. This typically sarcastic and not actually very funky piss take is from TK’s critically acclaimed 1978 debut album, Life in …
Video of the Day: The Bottle Rockets – Dog We are Dog People here at infinite Jones. So we love this video. If you have a dog, you will too. Our dog Rocket Dog.
