A recent post reminded me of PCU (1994), the soundtrack of which includes a ā€œPump It Upā€ cover by Mudhoney.

I remember a younger admirer of EC than I after a few albums deemed him starting to look a little old and sweaty. I was disappointed by this because otherwise she was a pretty nice girl from a really swell family. Even more disappointing her mother a little older than I and quite cool uncomfortably agreed.

Ok, I came back because I have something I think is constructive to say re Mudhoneyā€™s cover. They should have learned to play it backwards (try both but at least the lyrics) before paying it forward. :person_shrugging:

Thatā€™s it, Iā€™m tapped out. Impaction cleared. :wave:

I think his first album I bought was Spike. I remember that song ā€œVeronicaā€ charted, and I found it interesting that the song was about someone suffering Alzheimer-type dementia. There are other good tracks on that one, and Iā€™ve since listened to some of his older stuff.

I really liked when he went back on SNL and performed with Beastie Boys.

Have you ever heard ā€œUFO Tofuā€, by BĆ©la Fleck & The Flecktones? Itā€™s got three (IIRC) musical palindromes in it and sounds remarkably similar when played both forwards and backwards. (I once did a rip from the CD and then reversed the sound file so I could hear it for myself.) :exploding_head:

This sounds like it could be the name of a drive-time shock-jock radio show duo: Old & Sweaty.

Elvis and the Beasties, ok, but that Bela Fleck piece is fresh, thanks! Iā€™d heard the name, I think, but no more.

I saw EC on the Armed Forces tour in an arena cut in half by a curtain from ceiling to floor so semi-intimate. It was the most satisfying pop concert Iā€™ve ever seen, not very long, but with set list so well chosen and ordered and staging and transitions divine, there were simply no cries for More! - it was just over - and we happily spilled into the night.

/edit

This is accurate:

and we happily spilled into the night.

but sounds like a cliche. :laughing:

Oh well. Like stereotypes, sometimes theyā€™re apt. :man_shrugging:

@StevenAā€™s post in another topic reminded me of the BMW Films The Hire series, so I found a playlist on YouTube:

It doesnā€™t have them in their release order, but Iā€™m not sure that matters. I might watch 'em again sometime to see.
