I shot that because I was digging the song playing on the club's system and wanted to remember it, but for the last 22 years have been unable to figure it out. Last week I put the clip on facebook, asking for help, and with support from our own Mark S, and Michael Cudahy (Combustible Edison), got the name: The Suburban Lawns - Gossip Phew! After 22 years of being taunted by that scene - closure! And I still love it!

Even further divine if you turn the sound down on your TV and watch Mr. Rogers "singing" it. A pity none of their original releases (two LPs and one EP) seems to be in print... Andy What's currently on your turntable? What do you enjoy now? Let's see... [goes to check] The last record I listened to was Bud Powell. Under that is Charlie Parker. The Police is under that. Hank Ballard. I don't know. I've been listening to a lot of early Sun stuff, Hank Williams. I got drunk the other day and I regressed to 1971 and played nothing but Grand Funk and Deep Purple and Black Sabbath. It was sick. Must have been a real hangover. It was weird. You find yourself going into your past. I tried to get into that hardcore shit, and it's shit. I don't know, Van Morrison I listen to a lot. - --Lester Bangs answering questions from Jim DeRogatis, April 14, 1982, about two weeks before Bangs' death on April 30; from http://www.furious.com/perfect/lesterbangs2.html ------------------------------ End of loud-fans-digest V9 #124 *******************************
