____________________________________________________________________
As Chan did with this album there is not a set timeline no matter how hard you try. With that being said that's what makes this album jump out at me. I had heard of Cat Power years before, so I had an appreciation of her work. So when I heard the track Ruin on KCRW I had to Sound hound this song, because it blew me away as most most the songs I've heard of Cat Power were acoustic and these song felt deeper. Not that she wasn't deep before(in my opinion most songs that are intimate and acoustic are deeper than electric). But hearing her in electric is almost like the third dimension going 4D... straight fucking trip.

every time that i turn on my stereo in the work truck or my mp3 player Cat Power's Manhattan is always playing and it always seem's fitting for every moment, which is rare for anything and especially that seems like  an accusation of not having enough to be a proper lie. She's so subtle but so obvious of common themes.

During plenty of time when I've been floating between tracks I get caught on a track that makes me stop. And in of those moments recently I was caught by Cat Power's Nothing But Time... not because Iggy Pop is on this track. But because of Chan's soul she gives in this song. She's screaming about fighting to keep above water long enough to breath and to enjoy what matters aside from every expectation. She is a poet that can inspire beyond me, I wish I could be as great with my words.

So with that being said I wish you would give this album a chance and I would wish that you would
PASS IT ON and don't forget to listen to my friends on http://www.skidrowstudios.com/ LIke LEE on the PInata Hour or my Friend Mindee from the hotbox

Tom Waits...Orphans: Brawlers, Bawlers & Bastards

Released: November 20, 2006
Recorded: 1985–2005
Length: 189:17
Label: ANTI-
Producer: Kathleen Brennan, Tom Waits
_______________________________________________________
Ok so I know its been a long while since I've spoken at length about anything... but aside from my tethering I issues I'd like to apologize and give you people an album that is longer and more robust than before. So for this selection I choose an album that wasn't a greatest hits, but something that was a huge chunk of this artist's career.

Tom Waits has always been an artist that I've always wanted to write about, but I always thought I'd leave him as the pinch hitter that was worth more than the average or surface stuff... "Orphans: Brawlers, Bawlers & Bastards" is the album I choose that had a huge volume that was like a greatest hits but wasn't. So with that disclaimer stuff said, I wanna start with the first song to catch me "what keeps mankind alive"... this song really sounds like a gothic play (I can't remember the proper term of darker plays), similar to a live rendition of Faust... This one is very theatrical.

For the most part I would say I'm a fan of the gritty, broken thick rhythms of a simple song like "Dog Door". Something about this song really feels like it would be my intro to a place. Not like a wrestler, but something like a theme song. there's some elements of violence in this song that might be speaking to my frustrations as of late... so this would serve as the unofficial theme song to the Drunk Poet for the meantime.

If you've ever read "On the Road" you can really feel all the words in the song "Home I'll never be"... with this song as the book did for me, I wanna travel across America. Living more lives than I could spill out on to paper in one day. If you ever read the book you'd understand.

Have you ever felt that with the last breath of the night, that to have fitting rest you need to be set in your environment? Meaning that you need to be somewhere comfortable. Well "Bend down the Branches really makes me feel like that's where I need to be at times... and "You can never hold back Spring" fulfills that feeling in me more than any other song.

And with everything that ends, there must be a feeling that isn't words... but a sound of understanding... when I think of songs that will end me, without being terribly depressing I hear this song "Shiny Things" among two other songs (songs that I may eventually really in the future). This song never says the most depressing elements that it evokes, but it only seems like reaching above to the waves to be more.

I hope that would be enough for the time being... till at least when I don't have to be tethered again... but I ask that in the mean time that you give your attention to my friend LEE of Pinata Hour fame.

So till I'm not at someone else's mercy PASS IT ON

Jeff Buckley... Grace

Released: August 23, 1994
Recorded: Late 1993–1994 Bearsville Recording Studio (Woodstock, New York)
Length:51:44
Label: Columbia
Producer: Jeff Buckley, Andy Wallace
____________________________________________________________________________
Very few albums can get me from my different moods, but Jeff Buckley's Grace really hits me. Hearing the first track "Mojo Pin" can mean different things to me at different times, like a victory or a goodbye. It has a soul that is obvious and has an aggression that really speak to me in different ways, because of the slow start and the harder elements that scream to you.

Have you ever left something that meant more by leaving? ...Afterwards you just play it over and over in your mind, and it makes you angry to have to be that mature about things. I myself was there just over 4 years ago when I walked out on something that was going nowhere, and every time I hear "Last Goodbye", I remember that day. It was hot and uncomfortable, not because of the heat but having to leave something that was floating for 2 years, you just run as fast as you can to do right in life.

Everybody talks about "So Real", because everyone feels like its a prophecy Jeff Buckley sang about his life. But to me it feels like an epiphany of what your destiny is suppose to be and how far you are off that path. There are real emotions in this song that make those feelings stronger for me.

To me the 90's had a gritty honesty, that's been taken over by a glossy veneer. All of everything that the 90's were to me are encapsulated in the song "Hallelujah:. I know that Jeff Buckley didn't write this song, but it really felt the darker and truer things, that aren't here in this modern prepackaged reality. I actually like this version better than the Leonard Cohen version because it's simpler.

With all of that being said, I hope all of you young kids give this album a chance and to PASS IT ON to your friends... Like I share about my friend LEE at the Pinata Hour

Bob Dylan... New Morning

Length: 35:21
Label: Columbia

________________________________________________________________________
Ok first off sorry that I didn't write anything last night... I was kinda in a writers block from writing late into the night before. But this morning when I woke up, all could think about what album I should've written about. I spent most of the day listening to all kinds of music that didn't really hit me. Till I got out of the shower and it came to me while I was singing it... Bob Dylan's "New Morning". This album and song make me feel happier about things in my life, its a real big change in my life, because I use to hate Bob Dylan's voice.

I hated him till I heard "The Man In Me" in the movie the Big Lebowski. Actually I didn't know that was him till years later after I bought it on DVD. This song makes me think about the future and where I've been in my life. Like where will I meet that one woman that's described in the song, one to kick me in the ass hard enough to encourage me to be stronger, well I think that's why its a great song.

Proper endings are always hard to find especially in music, "Father of Night" is a perfect way to easy out with a memorable sound. I love that its simple and the piano sound gives a perfect tempo to this song. The lyrics of Dylan are always poetic but this one almost seems like an acknowledge of something higher... and that's not a bad thing in my book.

I don't know if anyone was waiting for this weeks Blog but here it is, so remember to PASS IT ON
and to Listen to LEE on the Pinata Hour

My Bloody Valentine...You made me realise EP

Released: August 8, 1988
Recorded: 1988
Length: 17:06
Label: Creation Records
Producer: My Bloody Valentine
______________________________________________________________
Have you ever heard a band that after years of hearing about, you finally sit down and listen to, only to be amazed at how great the band is. That's the feeling that I got when I first gave My Bloody Valentine a chance. I've said it plenty of times that I missed out on allot of music, because of my surroundings and ignorance to other sounds, and this is another example of it.

When I first heard the song "Slow" I feel in love with the grittiness of it. Its unpolished, but it has a real strong emotion in it. Like falling in love with someone and the moment when you first get close to them. The sensual slide of this song makes me think of some of the girls I've dated and how they ranked to this song.

Mornings always are a little chilly from a night of partying or waking up next to someone your with. Those times don't need to be loud or fast, just slow and enjoyed. That's the feeling I get from "Cigarette In Your Bed". Not that any girl I've ever dated would let me smoke in bed(when I did smoke), but this track just says Sunday morning to me, with every note.

This week I'm gonna leave you kiddos with the full E.P. because it's that fucking good and its only 5 tracks... so with all that being said I need to tell you to check out my buddy LEE on the Pinata Hour every Wednesday evening @ 7pm.

And Remember Kiddos to listen to things you don't normally listen to and you might be surprised. Also remember to PASS IT ON

Tune-Yards... Whokill

Released: April 19, 2011
Length: 42:12
Label: 4AD
____________________________________________________________________________
When I first heard Tune-Yards, I thought they were dudes. But when I actually saw the video for "Bizness", I was pleasantly surprised that it was a woman singing. This song has an energy that infectious and you find yourself singing it later in the day. And what makes it even cooler is that they actually made a music video... seems like a lost art really.

After I first heard "Bizness", I came home and downloaded the album and found some really good tracks that caught my attention like "Gangsta". I guess I'm not the only one who liked the song because I caught it on Weeds some time later. Its kind of funny song that's for the most part true, if you listen to the words.

Most of these songs got a happy kinda feel to them and are really light hearted, even with songs like "Killa". When I first downloaded this album, I listened to it continuously for the next week or so. And it was these 3 songs that really caught my attention, not to say the rest is boring but that these songs should be heard more.

This week I gotta say one thing before I get into my good nights. Last week Adam Yauch died at age 47 on May 4, 2012. He pushed allot music and ideals in many new ways that some people are still trying to catch up to. R.I.P. Adam

So if you missed it, last night was Drinko De Mayo hosted by friend LEE of Pinata Hour fame. We had fun and had a few drinks with friends and saw some good bands last night... good times.

All that being said means that it nearing time for me to move on for the night. But remember to give something new a chance and to PASS IT ON

Manic Hispanic... Mijo Goes To Jr. College

Released: May 6, 2003
Label: Better Youth Org
_______________________________________________________________
Woke yesterday morning all crudo as shit, and the only thing I could think, aside figuring out how the night before went, was Manic Hispanic's Menudo Morning Nightmare. For the most part of the song is about getting all kinds of crazy and wondering about it later. It also gives a quick overview of how things in the barrio go, maybe not all at once in a night, but hanging out in paisa bars and cruising is something I've done on more than one occasion(good times that are crazy fun).

Yeah these songs are all tongue and cheek covers of awesome old school punk songs, but their good. Also that they cover allot of local bands is a real big selling point for me, especially covering TSOL or DI, bands that I really respect.

Most of these songs make me laugh to, because for the most part they're pretty honest in the accents and the things you've heard people say in the barrio. Not sure if this one everyone will understand what makes this good... if not, do your research and read "Ask A Mexican", then you'll understand and might laugh. Hopefully you can read up and enjoy them before they play The 4th (Almost) Annual Manic de Mayo Celebration next weekend at the House of Blues.

Chances are that I will be at this show, but till then remember to check out LEE's show The Pinata Hour Wednesday... with that being said remember also kids to PASS IT ON

David Bowie... Low

Released January 14,1977
Recorded 1976 at Château d'Hérouville, Hérouville, France, and Hansa Studio by the Wall, West Berlin
Length 38:48
Label RCA
Producer David Bowie, Tony Visconti
_________________________________________________________________
Intro, intro, yeah yeah, not everything comes in a nice package that you expect, and sometimes the unexpected can be a game changer. Just like David Bowie's Low album when it just jumps in with "Speed of Life". It starts off like a mess, but as it progresses it cleans up and starts to feel like a story, hence the Speed of Life.

Somewhere around a decade ago, was when I left school and became a working man. And during that time I could hear a track in my head, that my friend had sent me a few years prior, and that tracks name was "Sound and Vision". There was nothing written about my future to be, and it seemed fitting as an unwritten book. Back then I wasn't a fully realized person, where I wanted to be, or how I was gonna get there, so this song if you listen to it you might catch what I'm implying.

During that decade I bounced around allot being some kinda moron or maniac, and everyday that I woke it was like living out the lyrics to "Always Crashing in the same Car". Nothing was ever stable, with money, relationships, or emotions, but it was always the same story every couple of months, just like the lyrics say.

And whenever there was a new frontier I always felt that "A New Career in a New Town", was my song that was written and performed for me. Its an instrumental, but the soul of the song is what was always pushing me, like waking up in the morning and not wanting to get up, so you have to force yourself, so that you can live. I could never understand that as a kid, but as an adult, I truly believe that you gotta wake up every morning, so that you can even have that choice, instead of just being nothing.

I really love this album and I hope that you at least give it a chance. And hell maybe you might see what I see in this album. So that's why I gotta say to PASS IT ON and shit maybe even subscribe to this madness.



Also Check out Pinata Hour this week with my friend LEE, another friend of mine that I haven't seen in a minute will be on the show

Ninja Academy... Bra'ka dOm

Label: Independent
Recorded:Hard Drive Studios in North Hollywood, CA.
Released: September 3, 2005
______________________________________________
If there was ever was an album that has been overlooked by the world it would have to be Ninja Academy's Bra'ka dOm. It has a simple concept, Drum and Bass... but its done well enough that you forget that its only 2 instruments. It just kicks ass all the way around even if you don't notice till the end, that you liked it

Just hearing the track "Your Kung Fu Sucks!" makes you want to jump and do something crazylike. This is probably the first song that I heard from them, years and years ago, the video made me laugh.

Instumentals most of the time can either kick ass or just be tedious. But listening to "Hunt for the Manipurans" makes it seem like playing Ninja Gaiden and your really living it. For the most part its smooth and subtle till after sometime it just kicks in and tears you up out of nowhere.

Usually I do a third song with a video, but I couldn't find one that wasn't ridiculous and moronic... so I'm just gonna have to direct you to the bands website. There is a link to them a few paragraphs back so enjoy.

But if you were interested in the song I wanted to list, it was called "Ninja Ho Down". I love that song, I remember when I first saw them way back when they played this song, and they had some dude on stage dressed in a robe that just said "if you smoke like me you be high everyday". That made me laugh so hard, not to mention that the rest of the band was all dressed like ninjas during the whole show. Well except for the girl that dressed up like a Geisha and did a fan dance when she wasn't playing the Taiko drum. Literally one of the most memorable shows I have ever seen in my life.

I wish they would comeback... so that is why I'm gonna ask that my friend Lee of Pinata Hour fame have them on his show.

Also don't forget that good music is everywhere but on the radio or TV... so having read this remember to PASS IT ON

2Mex... Gloria was a Kroqer

Released:2006
______________________________________
OK so this weeks choice is by an artist that I've reviewed before 2MEX, but what this guy does is insane. 2MEX blows my mind every time I hear something new from him, who does that anymore? With this one Gloria was a Kroqer he did more of a mash-up than sampling.

"So many more words" mashed up with Weezer's "Say it ain't so" was the first time I had actually heard a mash-up that was decent. And with those lyrics is really took me back to being a dumb kid wishing and pining for some one that doesn't care anymore. the line that always gets me and seems like a cleaver stab back at the situation is "saw you at the show, You pretended that you never knew me, I don't know I guess ill act like I rented you like a movie".

2MEX tends to write about relationships that don't work and the angst of life. But he does it with a cleaver back hand complement. Just listening to 2MEX's choice to mash-up with on "Silly Girl", The Descendents was a great choice... I would have never thought anybody would ever mix punk with hip hop ever in my life.

The Best track on this one most definately have to be the mash up with The Talking Heads. I love that band and those lyrics for "Naïve Melody"... just blow my mind. It almost seems the way that this song was written, was as though they all wrote it together, Good Stuff.

Don't forget Boys and Girls to listen to The Pinata Hour Featuring my homie LEE


Remember to PASS IT ON when your done listening to this one.
