Tennessee bird walk
Hittin the road again, Junk shop juke box style. This time we're headed down south to Tennessee. Talkin bout that bird walk...
Not sure what it is exactly, but there's a lesson to be learned here.
Listen closely to the lyrics. They'll explain everything.
Off to the Chicagoland record show out in the 'burbs this morning... Hopefully i'll find some more oddball stuff like this one. Wish me luck!
Enjoy!

Happy Hippo
Apparently, Happy Hippo is also some sort of food product. Google it. It looks pretty disgusting. Me- i just know the Happy Hippo as a groovy, laid back, organ driven, twangy guitar havin, instrumental track. The perfect musical accompaniment for entertaining company or just relaxing by oneself...
Enjoy it with me, wont you?

The Slurp!
Yesterday one of my co-workers suggested we get Slurpees from the 7-11 down the street. It was hot, and i hadn't had one in several years, so i thought it was a great idea. I told him to just "surprise me" with the flavor and i ended up with Mango.
I've been searching for this record ever since i learned of it's existence. Copies are fetching real money on ebay. Money i'm not willing to, and/or can't afford to spend. I found mine in the dusty three-for-a-buck crates at the record show last month. Score!
If you, like me, haven't had a Slurpee in a while, i would highly recommend picking one up in the near future. You'll be glad you did. Mine was quite refreshing.
Do the Slurp!

I like it
Black haired raven beauties, blondes and brunettes too,
Don't forget the red-head who promised she'd be true,
We all know Eve led Adam to that apple tree,
Those evil minded women, what they do to me,
But i like it.
Check out the flip side HERE.
