What Song Are You Listening To Right Now?

What a beautiful man. I don't know what it is about Pete Shelley in those early years. He seems so easily broken and boyish but like an open book, too. Gibson Marauder -- you don't see those too often these days.

Interesting setting for an ancient recording. Good? Bad? Song is iconic, but is video fun? Silly? I think I like it, but a few moments seem cringy, such as, "Robert had big dreams."

Sadly, Dex died just a few days ago. RIP.

No disrespect meant to Jack White, but I've never been able to make it through a single White Stripes song because Flat Duo Jets just totally completed that trip for me ... like 15-20 years before heh. Love these guys.

The Flat Duo Jets’ Dexter Romweber Has Died

With so many of the big time legends leaving us these days there is an overwhelming feeling of “see your heroes while you can, because it may be your last chance.” Both Wayne Kramer and Damo Suzuki passed last week. Tina left us last year. Bowie departed sooner than we expected. Joni, Keef, Macca are still here, but anything can happen.
So go to the show.
It won’t be like being there in the golden era, but you won’t regret it. I finally caught the Stones in 2022 and it was jaw-dropping good, even though Charlie was gone.

Also consider getting out to see the people who changed the landscape who, perhaps, weren’t as famous. Many of them have been slogging it out in the trenches, really living it, only without the benefit of being in the care of the best doctors and personal trainers.

It must have been prompted by his death but out of the blue I was reading about these this week and gave them a listen. It was good.

What a great video. So little money, so much character.
