You Walk Alone
Jandek album #16, You Walk Alone. Released in 1988.
Shut up! I know it's too long since I continued with this project. Lots of stuff has been happening. Monkey Call is rehearsing again. I played a gig with the Squeaky Wheels over Valentine's Weekend. My iPod died and I got a new 40 gig model. I've been taking care of legal crap with family and some home repairs. All that on top of work and everything ELSE I do. Also recorded a comedy show with Todd, my old "Under The Shelf" buddy and partner in Spudlok and Boring Industry.
My friend Len Peralta and his wife Nora have started a new podcast, a chat show called Jawbone and it's entertaining. They just talk about whatever is on their minds, whether or not they think it will be interesting to their listeners. The cool thing: It usually is interesting, like a good cup of coffee with friends. I've listened to all the episodes so far, and I sent the D.Verada CD to them for consideration to play or excerpt on their show.
Sooo... are you ready for an all blues Jandek CD? With real guitar playing from start to finish? There are 2 guitar players on this album, both playing quite well and jamming to standard blues and non-blues with Jandek providing singing and drums. The last tune, "War Dance", sounds like Jandek has some major pleghm going on and he spends about 20 seconds trying to hock it up during the song. This stuff just gets more interesting as it goes along.
Saw "Hitch". Cute.
Saw "Double D Avenger" with the Joe Bob Briggs commentary. Absolutely hilarious.
Purchased the second season DVD set of Penn & Teller's "B.S." - if you're looking for extra footage, there is none. Pick up the first season if you haven't already. I feel ripped off.
