Step into a world where bell-bottoms were the height of fashion, rock music blared from 8-track players, and not a single person worried about gluten. Mike and Tom, your guides through this time-warped musical landscape, transport you back to 1975 – a pivotal year that shaped not just music, but an entire generation's cultural identity.

The hosts share deeply personal connections to the year's biggest hits. Tom reveals how the Eagles' "Best of My Love" takes him back to childhood days learning to operate a combine harvester, while Mike recalls how Queen's "Bohemian Rhapsody" blew his 13-year-old mind with its revolutionary structure and theatrical power. Their different ages – Mike entering his teen years and Tom at just 8 – create a fascinating contrast in how they experienced these cultural touchstones.

As they methodically work through Billboard's Top 40 from 1975, each song unlocks memories and stories. From Sweet's "Ballroom Blitz" to Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here," the music becomes a gateway to discussions about growing up, first crushes, lost friends, and family relationships. The hosts don't just play critic – they lay bare how these songs became emotional bookmarks in their lives, still resonating decades later.

Between musical explorations, Mike and Tom take a nostalgic detour into 1975's popular toys – the Pet Rock, Weebles that "wobbled but didn't fall down," and the Green Machine that rivaled the Big Wheel. Tom's confession about stealing (and later returning) a much-coveted "Squirmle" toy adds a touch of childhood mischief to the conversation.

Their regular characters Pip and Squeak provide comic relief with their bickering about a recent photo shoot, creating a perfect balance to the sometimes poignant musical memories. Join this journey through time where the memories might be fuzzy, but the emotions and music remain crystal clear. Next week, the adventure continues into 1976!

00:00:12.512 --> 00:00:22.890
Ah yes, welcome back to the MT Alternative, the podcast that asks was it really better back then or were we just younger and mildly less achy?

00:00:22.890 --> 00:00:32.869
I'm your presenter, daniel, guiding you through another round of musical time travel, questionable fashion and emotionally repressed Gen X nostalgia.

00:00:32.869 --> 00:00:45.619
Today, mike and Tom dive headfirst into 1975, a year when bell-bottoms were wide, rock was loud and absolutely no one knew what gluten was.

00:00:45.619 --> 00:00:51.960
They'll be talking about the songs that lit up their youth and probably also the songs they made out to in the back of a pinto.

00:00:51.960 --> 00:00:54.545
Will they remember the music accurately?

00:00:54.545 --> 00:00:59.521
Unlikely, but will they feel things deeply and then deflect with humor?

00:00:59.521 --> 00:01:01.865
Absolutely, oh.

00:01:01.865 --> 00:01:06.655
And just when you thought the chaos couldn't get any smaller, pip and squeak return.

00:01:06.655 --> 00:01:15.334
Yes, the little dudes are back with high-pitched bickering, strong snack opinions and oddly detailed knowledge of eight tracks.

00:01:15.334 --> 00:01:25.832
So pour yourself a tab, adjust your lava lamp and prepare for a journey into 1975, where the memories are fuzzy and the sarcasm is thick.

00:01:25.832 --> 00:01:27.194
Let's get to it.

00:01:27.194 --> 00:01:28.881
Roll tape, gentlemen.

00:01:40.451 --> 00:01:43.495
Welcome back to the MT Alternative Podcast.

00:01:43.495 --> 00:01:45.897
Tom, what the hell is going on.

00:01:46.061 --> 00:01:47.626
Not a whole lot, mike.

00:01:47.626 --> 00:01:49.486
I hope you're having a great day.

00:01:49.486 --> 00:01:51.885

00:02:07.280 --> 00:02:15.073
Because of the families that are carrying on the traditions of the fallen people that made all this possible.

00:02:15.813 --> 00:02:17.584
You're right, People seem to forget it.

00:02:17.584 --> 00:02:18.187
Thank you.

00:02:18.187 --> 00:02:21.288

00:03:01.094 --> 00:03:18.967
Oh, what is it that brings us back to work, that I'm going to give you all of the information about work and why this song blended in so well about work, okay, anyway, that's later on.

00:03:18.967 --> 00:03:19.588
Okay, cool.

00:03:20.663 --> 00:03:21.186
I can't wait.

00:03:21.599 --> 00:03:22.645
Yeah, I can't either.

00:03:22.759 --> 00:03:25.453
Obviously, I really don't know what the hell you're talking about, so this should be interesting.

00:03:25.453 --> 00:03:25.652
Wait, yeah, I can't either.

00:03:25.652 --> 00:03:26.451
Obviously, I really don't know what the hell you're talking about, so this should be interesting yeah.

00:03:26.840 --> 00:03:29.830
But, yeah, it'll all come through Excellent.

00:03:29.919 --> 00:03:32.872
Well, hey, we are talking about 1975.

00:03:32.872 --> 00:03:34.900
1975.

00:03:34.900 --> 00:03:42.391
That summer of 75, I was a wee lad of 13, coming into my teenage years.

00:03:42.412 --> 00:03:42.872
Sad.

00:03:43.294 --> 00:03:44.381
I'm old, that's sad.

00:03:44.600 --> 00:03:51.891
Coming into my third grade classroom with my painter's shirt on, because we had Art Day.

00:03:53.074 --> 00:03:53.814
What a young pup.

00:03:54.741 --> 00:03:56.788
I was eight years old.

00:03:56.788 --> 00:04:01.645
What a life.

00:04:01.645 --> 00:04:04.427
What a life Back in the 70s man.

00:04:05.223 --> 00:04:06.407
So we'll break this down.

00:04:06.407 --> 00:04:08.025
We're kind of going to stick to the.

00:04:08.025 --> 00:04:15.409
I guess the format we had last time Kind of went through the top 40, break them down, yep.

00:04:16.110 --> 00:04:19.627
Worked for me and they got some great songs this time.

00:04:20.449 --> 00:04:21.312
Was there anything else?

00:04:21.312 --> 00:04:24.350
I'm sure we have other stuff to talk about before we get to this.

00:04:25.800 --> 00:04:29.588
Well, there was a birthday party this weekend, corbin.

00:04:29.588 --> 00:04:31.814
Yes, my grandson, my grandson.

00:04:31.814 --> 00:04:35.149
I remember the last birthday party we had.

00:04:35.149 --> 00:04:39.651
We talked about how the thunderstorm and stuff that came through.

00:04:40.440 --> 00:04:43.127
We sat in this exact studio talking about it.

00:04:43.148 --> 00:04:43.689
Yes, we did.

00:04:43.689 --> 00:04:44.971
Things were a little different then.

00:04:44.971 --> 00:04:46.807
Yeah, things were a lot different then.

00:04:46.807 --> 00:04:52.206
But now I mean we Moving on up, yeah, To the east side.

00:04:52.206 --> 00:04:55.622
But he had a great birthday party we went to.

00:04:56.124 --> 00:04:57.026
Mexican restaurant.

00:04:57.067 --> 00:04:58.110
Yes, we went, I saw him.

00:04:58.781 --> 00:05:00.788
Josh showed me a picture with his little sombrero.

00:05:01.221 --> 00:05:04.047
Yeah, and he had his little drink that he grabbed.

00:05:04.086 --> 00:05:05.028
He walked right in.

00:05:05.088 --> 00:05:06.290
He knew right where it was.

00:05:06.411 --> 00:05:07.274
Grabbed his little drink.

00:05:08.240 --> 00:05:11.507
Yeah, he's something else, man, I can't believe he's already nine.

00:05:11.507 --> 00:05:12.603
Nine.

00:05:12.603 --> 00:05:14.886
I cannot believe he's already nine.

00:05:16.221 --> 00:05:17.204
Josh said the same thing.

00:05:17.204 --> 00:05:20.166
I said oh wait, josh, here's the thing that I can't believe.

00:05:20.660 --> 00:05:23.966
He was born the very first year I started where we're working.

00:05:24.990 --> 00:05:26.658
That he was born the very first year I started where we're working.

00:05:26.658 --> 00:05:26.978
That's sad.

00:05:26.978 --> 00:05:29.869
That's sad Not that he was born then, that you've been working there that long.

00:05:29.869 --> 00:05:31.124
Yeah, exactly because.

00:05:31.584 --> 00:05:35.988
I couldn't even get off, but this is how far I have become.

00:05:35.988 --> 00:05:45.281
Back when he was born, I had so many points already built up that I couldn't take off to be there for when he was born Tom.

00:05:45.300 --> 00:05:49.458
when I started six years ago, you were all pointed out almost all the time.

00:05:49.458 --> 00:05:54.749
Yeah, I got like a half a point now I remember thinking to myself this guy doesn't like to come to work, man.

00:05:58.262 --> 00:06:00.447
And I still don't want to come to work, but I do.

00:06:00.468 --> 00:06:05.399
But you do now, yeah, I do I like to think that I brought that out in you, yeah, or you do now, yeah, I do I like to think that I brought that out in you, yeah.

00:06:05.399 --> 00:06:06.906
Or you brought other things out in me.

00:06:06.906 --> 00:06:08.206
Well, what really happened?

00:06:08.206 --> 00:06:10.666
You want to be with your buddy, mike, at work.

00:06:11.422 --> 00:06:13.615
My son started working there.

00:06:13.615 --> 00:06:19.291
Well, that helps, and I can't show him it's okay to be out, because he will.

00:06:19.291 --> 00:06:21.809
He will be out, he will be out.

00:06:21.809 --> 00:06:23.543
Oh, he likes to be out out, he will be out.

00:06:23.543 --> 00:06:24.305
Oh, he likes to be out, anyway.

00:06:24.324 --> 00:06:25.627
But I thought he liked to work too.

00:06:25.627 --> 00:06:26.309
He does.

00:06:26.309 --> 00:06:28.072
He always wants to work the overtime.

00:06:29.959 --> 00:06:31.764
Yeah, he wants the money, but he don't want to work for it.

00:06:31.764 --> 00:06:33.490
He's a leftist.

00:06:34.740 --> 00:06:37.220
No, no, just kidding, no yeah, we know that's not true.

00:06:37.279 --> 00:06:38.300
Yeah, that's not true.

00:06:38.401 --> 00:06:40.040
He is not a leftist?

00:06:40.401 --> 00:06:41.062
He is not.

00:06:41.062 --> 00:06:44.002
He is a very good hard worker sometimes.

00:06:47.144 --> 00:06:48.925
So what else is Any other stories?

00:06:48.925 --> 00:06:51.206
What about that one you had, you're telling me today?

00:06:51.547 --> 00:06:52.028
Oh yeah.

00:06:52.028 --> 00:06:58.850
Well, when I was on my way over here, I thought well, memorial Day weekend I'm going to do something a little different.

00:06:58.850 --> 00:07:12.757
So I thought I'd get me a Michelada, which is a red beer to most people, and I like them.

00:07:15.379 --> 00:07:16.648
But anyway, I stopped over there and I was going to pay.

00:07:16.668 --> 00:07:22.151
I thought that was a Mexican beer, or whatever, no, that's Corona, but anyway we won't get too rich, but anyway Okay.

00:07:23.581 --> 00:07:26.269
I see a lot of Guatemalans and Mexicans buying that bud.

00:07:26.699 --> 00:07:29.410
Well, because it's good, it's good.

00:07:29.579 --> 00:07:30.704
Get yourself a V8.

00:07:30.704 --> 00:07:31.908
Drink it with your beer.

00:07:33.600 --> 00:07:35.869
Well, but this is already mixed up.

00:07:35.869 --> 00:07:38.745
Okay, continue.

00:07:38.745 --> 00:07:39.307
Anyway.

00:07:39.307 --> 00:07:46.444
So I go in there and I pay with the 20 and I said oh, wait a minute, I have a five.

00:07:46.444 --> 00:07:48.988
My wife gave me two fives this morning.

00:07:48.988 --> 00:07:50.404
She gave you an allowance.

00:07:50.404 --> 00:07:53.189
Yeah, the lady said well, that was nice of her.

00:07:53.189 --> 00:07:57.988
I didn't go into the story of how my wife ended up owing me that money.

00:07:58.310 --> 00:07:58.951
Oh wait a minute.

00:07:59.192 --> 00:07:59.593
Wait a minute.

00:07:59.593 --> 00:08:01.401
Nope, we're not going to go into that.

00:08:01.420 --> 00:08:04.786
She doesn't get a backstory, but everybody else gets a backstory.

00:08:04.786 --> 00:08:06.348
Who she?

00:08:06.348 --> 00:08:08.853
The lady at the counter.

00:08:08.853 --> 00:08:10.274
You didn't give her a backstory.

00:08:12.079 --> 00:08:14.642
No, because I don't know her life, so she was spared.

00:08:15.442 --> 00:08:16.324
Okay, go on.

00:08:16.324 --> 00:08:21.750
So she said, well, I said I have a five.

00:08:21.750 --> 00:08:26.935
If you would rather me give you a five, five, or would you want to break a 20?

00:08:26.935 --> 00:08:32.102
And she looked at me like I was stupid and she's like I don't really care.

00:08:32.102 --> 00:08:36.513
I said, well, if you don't care, go ahead and just give me the change out of the 20 then, and I'll keep the five.

00:08:36.513 --> 00:08:40.282
I don't know where it is anyway.

00:08:40.282 --> 00:08:44.164
So we made a big deal about these two fives and I couldn't find them.

00:08:44.164 --> 00:08:53.533
And I'm looking, and I'm looking, so I pay for my beer and I go out to the car and I'm sitting there and I had been partaking.

00:08:53.533 --> 00:08:55.875
Okay, kind of yeah.

00:08:56.076 --> 00:08:56.436
I hear you.

00:08:56.456 --> 00:08:57.116
That's cool.

00:08:59.679 --> 00:09:00.799
So then the guy comes running out of the store.

00:09:00.799 --> 00:09:02.280
He probably already knows that, so he didn't have to explain it.

00:09:02.301 --> 00:09:10.543
So the guy comes running out of the store and I open the door, which he probably got this big old oof right in his face as I opened the door.

00:09:10.563 --> 00:09:11.364
Oh, he partaked also.

00:09:11.744 --> 00:09:12.724
Probably.

00:09:12.724 --> 00:09:17.285
So anyway he's like he's holding these two fives up in his hand.

00:09:17.285 --> 00:09:19.846
He's like I found these on the floor.

00:09:19.846 --> 00:09:21.407
Are these the fives you're looking for?

00:09:21.407 --> 00:09:27.328
Because I'm flipping through my wallet trying to find these two fives, but no, he came running out.

00:09:27.328 --> 00:09:28.730
The owner of the store.

00:09:28.730 --> 00:09:36.373
Well, it's a good thing you mentioned that you had the two fives, Exactly because he knew who they were and he's like they were on the floor over here.

00:09:36.373 --> 00:09:37.633
This is what you're.

00:09:37.633 --> 00:09:43.995
I said, man, that's awesome, that is awesome, that is awesome, that's an honest owner, honest owner.

00:09:44.575 --> 00:09:45.796
So it was the Indian guy.

00:09:45.796 --> 00:09:47.015
It was the Indian guy.

00:09:47.015 --> 00:09:54.658
Yeah, the beef jerky Indian dude, not the pow pow Indian, right right, yeah, okay, I think we all understand, all right.

00:09:54.658 --> 00:09:55.845
Well, I just wanted to.

00:09:56.980 --> 00:09:57.985
Because there's a difference.

00:09:57.985 --> 00:10:03.509
Now, well, you can say the Native American, but then again, that's a lot of people.

00:10:06.341 --> 00:10:07.028
Yeah, that's a lot of people.

00:10:07.028 --> 00:10:07.817
Yeah, that does include a lot of people.

00:10:07.817 --> 00:10:16.855
Anyways, anywho, back to reality, back to life, back to life, back to reality.

00:10:17.239 --> 00:10:20.649
Alright, our top 40 songs from Well, not ours.

00:10:20.649 --> 00:10:24.345
This is actually the chart list from 1975, which was a good one.

00:10:24.345 --> 00:10:25.666
Yep, there were some good ones.

00:10:25.666 --> 00:10:30.688
Get into those songs Now that a little closer to home.

00:10:31.191 --> 00:10:31.672
Yeah.

00:10:31.732 --> 00:10:32.916
You know, you're in no certain yet.

00:10:32.916 --> 00:10:36.854
Well, especially for me being a teenager, that now I'm starting to anyways.

00:10:37.154 --> 00:10:45.027
I was a, you know, just starting to get into life, and you know working, and I was eight.

00:10:45.027 --> 00:10:46.090
So here we go.

00:10:46.110 --> 00:10:46.951
I'm going to read the list.

00:10:46.951 --> 00:10:50.110
I'm going to start at the bottom, work our way to number one.

00:10:50.110 --> 00:10:53.389
So the first 10 that I'll lead off are 40 to 31.

00:10:53.389 --> 00:10:54.681
There you go we have.

00:10:54.681 --> 00:10:55.662

00:10:55.662 --> 00:10:58.306
10cc Wildfire.

00:10:58.306 --> 00:11:01.450
Michael Murphy, Cats in a Cradle.

00:11:01.450 --> 00:11:04.474

00:11:04.474 --> 00:11:08.265
Barry Manilow, have you Never Been Mellow?

00:11:08.265 --> 00:11:15.803
Olivia Newton-John, Mandy, Barry Manilow, once again, Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds Nope, not the Beatles.

00:11:15.803 --> 00:11:17.308
Tom Elton John's version.

00:11:17.308 --> 00:11:20.600
We have Sister Golden Hair, America Please.

00:11:20.600 --> 00:11:22.106
Mr Postman, the Carpenters.

00:11:22.106 --> 00:11:26.230
And we have Magic from Pilot Magic.

00:11:28.361 --> 00:11:29.166
You like magic.

00:11:30.941 --> 00:11:34.309
Yeah, just not that time magic so much, oh yeah.

00:11:35.030 --> 00:11:36.908
Anyways, I have Magic Johnson.

00:11:38.880 --> 00:11:41.129
No, Magic Johnson's a great basketball player.

00:11:41.129 --> 00:11:42.023
I have a Magic.

00:11:42.082 --> 00:11:44.764
Johnson no, you don't, it disappears in my hand.

00:11:44.764 --> 00:11:45.607
Okay, that I believe.

00:11:46.460 --> 00:11:57.907
But anyways, we're going to spotlight a couple songs, like we did last week Right Songs that I really like out of this list and I guess have some more meaning to me because I listen to it a lot.

00:11:57.907 --> 00:11:59.626
Sister, golden Hair, america.

00:11:59.626 --> 00:12:06.160
Now we can make fun of that too, because as much as a good song, what the hell is Golden Hair?

00:12:06.181 --> 00:12:07.003
Surprise.

00:12:07.003 --> 00:12:09.947
You thought she was a burdette, I guess so.

00:12:10.849 --> 00:12:13.313
I don't understand, but I do like the song.

00:12:15.080 --> 00:12:16.261
Golden Hair Surprise.

00:12:16.283 --> 00:12:24.039
It's kind of like the Chocolate Surprise, yeah a little bit, but different yeah, a little different what they will say about America.

00:12:24.039 --> 00:12:25.884
They do have some great harmonizing yeah, a little different what they will say about America.

00:12:25.884 --> 00:12:27.754
They do have some great harmonizing, yeah, America.

00:12:27.754 --> 00:12:32.389
And another one we both liked on that was Wildfire.

00:12:32.389 --> 00:12:35.147
Oh yes, Michael Murphy, that was a great song.

00:12:35.299 --> 00:12:36.384
Well, it told a story.

00:12:36.465 --> 00:12:37.327
It did tell a story.

00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:47.466
It told a story that when you were young and eight years old, you felt sad for this girl when she cried wildfire.

00:12:47.466 --> 00:12:50.379
Yes, because the horse ran away in the storm.

00:12:50.600 --> 00:12:51.544
Why would it do that?

00:12:51.700 --> 00:12:53.245
Well, because it got scared.

00:12:53.245 --> 00:12:54.389
Okay, and the fire.

00:12:56.163 --> 00:12:58.470
But all kidding aside though, it is a good song.

00:12:58.549 --> 00:13:02.807
It was Well if you listen to the story as an eight-year-old.

00:13:02.807 --> 00:13:06.743
I mean you're panicking, because that's a lot of fire.

00:13:06.864 --> 00:13:07.485
At eight-year-old.

00:13:07.485 --> 00:13:10.562
At eight years old, I was not listening to lyrics.

00:13:10.562 --> 00:13:15.506
I'll admit that that was too deep for me at eight years old, oh, even at 13.

00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:17.427
Well, I was listening to lyrics.

00:13:17.879 --> 00:13:19.505
At 13, I started thinking of girls.

00:13:19.505 --> 00:13:21.586
So it's like man, the girls like this song.

00:13:25.039 --> 00:13:25.989
So see, our minds were in two different places.

00:13:25.989 --> 00:13:26.938
Why do the girls like this song?

00:13:26.938 --> 00:13:29.985
That's what I was thinking Because of the lyrics.

00:13:30.059 --> 00:13:31.385
Once again too deep for me.

00:13:31.385 --> 00:13:34.147
Yeah, I wasn't thinking with my head.

00:13:35.482 --> 00:13:37.750
Yeah, everything was too deep.

00:13:37.779 --> 00:13:42.283
Something else took over, anyway, but anyways that's why you date midgets.

00:13:42.302 --> 00:13:42.724
Here's one.

00:13:43.745 --> 00:13:44.607
Cats in a Cradle.

00:13:44.969 --> 00:13:46.091
With a silver spoon.

00:13:46.091 --> 00:13:51.839
What, yeah?

00:13:51.839 --> 00:14:00.653
Well, I got to tell you.

00:14:00.933 --> 00:14:03.679
That's your dad giving you a freaking yeah, he's trying to make you feel bad.

00:14:03.679 --> 00:14:08.605
I'd say what a way to start off this with dad in that geez, that'd be not being in your life, that's pretty sad I'm going for milk.

00:14:09.663 --> 00:14:11.519
I'll be back 10 years later.

00:14:11.922 --> 00:14:25.687
I see where this is going with you there, buddy, and that song touched a little too close to home well all right, so let's move on from that to 30 to 21, oh, 30 to 21 there, oh, 30 to 21.

00:14:25.727 --> 00:14:26.211
There's more.

00:14:26.392 --> 00:14:27.115
There is more.

00:14:27.115 --> 00:14:32.130
There is more Number 30, we have Fire the Ohio Players, okay.

00:14:32.130 --> 00:14:33.221
29,.

00:14:33.221 --> 00:14:35.690
Jackie Blue, the Ozark Mountain Daredevils.

00:14:37.283 --> 00:14:38.687
Angie Baby, helen Reddy.

00:14:38.687 --> 00:14:43.649
27, fight the Power, part 1, the Isley Brothers, part 1.

25, boogie on Reggae Woman, stevie Wonder.

00:14:50.710 --> 00:14:54.890
24, love Won't Let Me Wait, major Harris.

00:14:54.890 --> 00:14:56.000
I don't even know what that one is.

00:14:56.000 --> 00:14:57.559
Yeah, that one's tough for me to remember.

00:14:57.559 --> 00:14:59.287
23, why Can't we Be Friends?

00:14:59.287 --> 00:15:00.860
War 22,.

00:15:00.860 --> 00:15:03.825
Lady Marmalade LaBelle and 21,.

00:15:03.825 --> 00:15:06.168
The Hustle Van McCoy and the Soul City Symphony.

00:15:06.368 --> 00:15:09.211
Which is not even a song, it's music.

00:15:09.751 --> 00:15:10.533
But it's a song.

00:15:10.533 --> 00:15:12.916
It just doesn't have real lyrics.

00:15:12.916 --> 00:15:15.399
What about Do the Hustle?

00:15:15.399 --> 00:15:18.004
What a wonder.

00:15:18.024 --> 00:15:21.173
I wonder how long it took him to write that song.

00:15:21.440 --> 00:15:22.799
Okay, it's not about that, it's.

00:15:22.799 --> 00:15:25.985
Where do I put these lyrics in the song See?

00:15:26.086 --> 00:15:27.027
Right in the song.

00:15:27.047 --> 00:15:29.051
See, it's all about placement, tom.

00:15:29.051 --> 00:15:30.413
You're missing the point.

00:15:30.413 --> 00:15:33.043
He had to listen to that time.

00:15:33.043 --> 00:15:34.126
Where am I going to put this?

00:15:34.126 --> 00:15:34.984
Do the hustle?

00:15:34.984 --> 00:15:35.205
See?

00:15:35.205 --> 00:15:44.942
You hear it now it sounds easy, but you know, poor guy back then was probably at the beginning and it just all fucked up.

00:15:44.982 --> 00:15:48.866
Woke up in his shag carpet with pot seeds all around him.

00:15:48.866 --> 00:15:49.868
He just didn't know.

00:15:50.028 --> 00:15:52.770
Well, what about wasted days and wasted nights?

00:15:52.951 --> 00:15:53.331
Oh, Freddy.

00:15:53.351 --> 00:15:55.313
Wasted days and wasted nights.

00:15:55.374 --> 00:16:01.605
Sounded like Freddy sang it in a helicopter With Squeak and Troy.

00:16:01.605 --> 00:16:04.412
I wonder if he got to sit in the seat or if he was in a lap.

00:16:05.179 --> 00:16:07.126
I'm sure Squeak still got thrown overboard.

00:16:07.327 --> 00:16:10.450
Anyway, I'm sure he didn't get the ride shotgun Freddie Fender.

00:16:10.470 --> 00:16:12.196
Freddie Fender Wasted days.

00:16:12.196 --> 00:16:13.860
He had a lot of hits back in the 70s.

00:16:13.860 --> 00:16:15.826
He had two in 75.

00:16:16.528 --> 00:16:16.909
He did.

00:16:16.909 --> 00:16:18.158
He had two in 75.

00:16:18.158 --> 00:16:19.284
We'll get to that one.

00:16:23.686 --> 00:16:24.868
Yeah, I'm just saying let's not.

00:16:24.868 --> 00:16:28.293
I'm saying he has a lot of songs Not making fun of Freddy at all.

00:16:28.432 --> 00:16:29.835
No, no, we're not Freddy.

00:16:32.000 --> 00:16:34.044
All right, what about Jackie Blue?

00:16:34.044 --> 00:16:38.494
Jackie Blue, ozark Mountain Daredevils, I'll say one thing.

00:16:38.494 --> 00:16:41.703
That's a very cool name.

00:16:41.724 --> 00:16:43.890
They had to think about that a while.

00:16:43.890 --> 00:16:44.760
Had to.

00:16:45.043 --> 00:16:46.582
I wonder if they were from the Ozarks.

00:16:47.306 --> 00:16:50.509
I wonder if they were from the mountains and I wonder if they were daredevils.

00:16:50.509 --> 00:16:53.748
See, these are things we ought to know.

00:16:53.961 --> 00:16:55.225
We should have dug deep into that.

00:16:56.842 --> 00:16:58.467
Anyway, that's another podcast.

00:16:59.190 --> 00:16:59.551
Fire.

00:16:59.551 --> 00:17:03.587
I kind of like fire from the Ohio Players, even though it's just fire.

00:17:04.402 --> 00:17:05.548
Earth, wind and fire.

00:17:05.548 --> 00:17:06.737
No, no Fire.

00:17:06.917 --> 00:17:10.385
Oh, fire From the Ohio Players oh the Ohio.

00:17:10.385 --> 00:17:12.346

00:17:12.346 --> 00:17:15.708
I love Rollercoaster, rollercoaster.

00:17:16.028 --> 00:17:16.529
Anyways.

00:17:16.951 --> 00:17:20.807
Anyways, that was your songs from 30 to 21.

00:17:20.968 --> 00:17:22.531
Yeah, they get better.

00:17:24.240 --> 00:17:24.761
Not bad.

00:17:24.761 --> 00:17:26.365
Some of them could be placed higher.

00:17:26.605 --> 00:17:33.068
They could have placed higher, not placed at all In my opinion, but anyways, we're doing the top 40.

00:17:33.068 --> 00:17:34.843
This is what we're doing, alright, from number 20.

00:17:34.843 --> 00:17:36.409
Pick up the pieces.

00:17:36.409 --> 00:17:39.670

All right, tom, pick up the pieces by a group called the Average White Band.

00:18:13.471 --> 00:18:20.827
Hmm, why are they average and why do they have to put white in there?

00:18:20.847 --> 00:18:21.390
Right, right.

00:18:21.390 --> 00:18:23.127
Well, we're not average.

00:18:24.560 --> 00:18:25.586
Well, that band is yeah right.

00:18:25.906 --> 00:18:26.388
Well, we're not average.

00:18:26.388 --> 00:18:27.031
Well, that band is?

00:18:28.297 --> 00:18:28.960
Yeah, maybe here's the thing.

00:18:28.960 --> 00:18:30.664
Have you seen the people in the band?

00:18:30.664 --> 00:18:32.289
Yeah, they're white, not all of them.

00:18:33.000 --> 00:18:35.148
I know, but the average ones are.

00:18:35.148 --> 00:18:37.334
That's why they're average.

00:18:37.334 --> 00:18:37.920
Oh, I get it.

00:18:37.920 --> 00:18:39.085
I get it now.

00:18:39.085 --> 00:18:40.946
See, we had to talk that through.

00:18:40.946 --> 00:18:44.066
That's all that was, we had to talk it out.

00:18:44.125 --> 00:18:47.814
Okay, gotcha Next, alright of course I love Ballroom Blitz.

00:18:47.814 --> 00:18:51.614
I'll be discussing that later in another segment.

00:18:51.614 --> 00:18:54.148
Ballroom Blitz is one of my favorites Ballroom Blitz.

00:18:54.148 --> 00:18:58.593
I noticed we got Squeaks Kung Fu fighting on here.

00:18:58.593 --> 00:19:00.284
Yeah, why is that?

00:19:00.284 --> 00:19:01.388
Squeaks, squeaks.

00:19:01.388 --> 00:19:03.567
Did that like three episodes ago?

00:19:04.160 --> 00:19:06.925
Yeah, he flipped out about everybody wouldn't go.

00:19:06.925 --> 00:19:12.382
Well, the song purely says everybody was A kung fu fighting.

00:19:12.382 --> 00:19:21.405
Well, to assume that some of us can kung fu fight, because I could get my ass whooped thinking that- Right Now.

00:19:21.747 --> 00:19:23.445
What about Best of my Love from the Eagles?

00:19:23.445 --> 00:19:25.146
That's a good song which brings me to a story.

00:19:25.146 --> 00:19:26.980
J from the Eagles, that's a good song which brings me to a story Jive Talkin'.

00:19:26.980 --> 00:19:28.507
That's actually, I think, jive Talkin'.

00:19:28.507 --> 00:19:30.817
That's actually before Saturday Night Fever, right?

00:19:30.817 --> 00:19:35.006
So pre-disco, yes, pre-disco, which is kind of leading up to that.

00:19:35.519 --> 00:19:36.723
Can we go backwards one?

00:19:37.686 --> 00:19:38.388
Best of my Love.

00:19:38.388 --> 00:19:49.532
Yeah, okay, eagles that kind of gives me a little story okay, as long as you weren't going to say a little uh, anyways, go ahead no, back when this song came out right, I was working.

00:19:50.493 --> 00:19:55.988
I was like eight, nine years old and I was working on a farm.

00:19:55.988 --> 00:20:03.482
My, my, we grew up out in the west, where everybody had farms nothing right, everybody had farms.

00:20:03.983 --> 00:20:08.874
But when I was eight, most kids were playing baseball and blah, blah, blah.

00:20:08.874 --> 00:20:30.351
I was on a combine and this song was on a cassette tape in this combine, when I was listening to it, when the hired hand was letting me learn how to do all the buttons and everything for the combine, this song was playing the Eagles Greatest Hits.

00:20:30.351 --> 00:20:41.213
That's how I remember the song and that's what brings me back to is, in that combine, learning how, to you know, put a handful of wheat in your mouth.

00:20:42.080 --> 00:20:43.685
So not when the song came out.

00:20:44.048 --> 00:20:45.942
No, no, no, but the song itself.

00:20:45.942 --> 00:20:46.464
That's where the song came out.

00:20:46.464 --> 00:20:46.653
No, no, no, but the song itself.

00:20:46.653 --> 00:20:49.155
That's where you remember the song, right, right.

00:20:49.175 --> 00:20:51.038
Later on, not 1975.

00:20:51.980 --> 00:20:54.628
I wasn't driving a combine at eight years old.

00:20:54.628 --> 00:21:04.731
Yeah, sorry, sorry, but this song, when I was eight years old, came out and it reminded me of the time I learned how to drive my first combine.

00:21:05.922 --> 00:21:06.769
I'll be honest, tom.

00:21:06.769 --> 00:21:10.073
Probably the Eagles Greatest Hits was the first time I really listened to the Eagles.

00:21:10.073 --> 00:21:17.807
Yeah, that was pretty good, it wasn't anything before I mean, I'm sure I've heard the songs, but it was that whole Eagles Greatest Hits.

00:21:17.960 --> 00:21:30.130
Well, because we all now, I remember hearing had the little skull on, yeah, but I remember hearing had the little skull on, yeah, but I remember Silver Thread and Golden Needles.

00:21:30.130 --> 00:21:32.894
Oh shit, I have no idea.

00:21:32.894 --> 00:21:34.263
No, wait a minute, it's a woman.

00:21:34.263 --> 00:21:36.176
The Eagles played for Linda Ronstadt.

00:21:36.640 --> 00:21:37.122
Linda.

00:21:37.242 --> 00:21:37.925
Ronstadt.

00:21:37.925 --> 00:21:59.224
Now I remember when I was little and listening to Linda Ronstadt in the back seat of, once again, my sister's car traveling here and there silver hair and golden needles and then I learned later on that her band went to their own and they were the Eagles, I think she inspired from the story.

00:21:59.224 --> 00:22:00.307
Yeah, she told them Because.

00:22:00.327 --> 00:22:01.070
I've read everything.

00:22:01.070 --> 00:22:02.444
You guys should start your own band.

00:22:02.464 --> 00:22:02.988
Yeah, you should.

00:22:03.780 --> 00:22:11.144
And then, unfortunately, you hear nowadays, well, of course, like phrase climb, but you hear how him and Don Henley are pricks in real life.

00:22:11.144 --> 00:22:13.266
Yeah, kind of sad to know that it is.

00:22:13.266 --> 00:22:14.824
Well, that's stories anyways.

00:22:14.824 --> 00:22:17.505
Yeah, music, but anyways alright.

00:22:17.505 --> 00:22:18.743
So we got that.

00:22:18.743 --> 00:22:21.767
Let's see Jive Talking like I said, another song like Blackwater.

00:22:21.767 --> 00:22:27.340
The said another song like Blackwater, the Doobie Brothers.

00:22:27.340 --> 00:22:27.863
I'm not going to lie, I thought that was always a weird song from Blackwater.

00:22:28.166 --> 00:22:30.866
I mean the song itself, the music I like.

00:22:30.866 --> 00:22:46.623
Oh, blackwater, come on, man, it's as bad as I love that dirty water of Botanama anyways, moving on, all right.

00:22:46.623 --> 00:22:49.266
So 10 to 1, now we got number 10,.

00:22:49.266 --> 00:22:51.268
Thank God I'm a Country Boy, john Denver.

00:22:51.268 --> 00:22:51.922
Wow.

00:22:51.922 --> 00:22:53.207
Number 9,.

00:22:53.207 --> 00:22:55.548
One of these Nights, the Eagles, eagles again.

00:22:55.548 --> 00:22:57.865

Fender again, philadelphia Freedom Elton John at number three, rhinestone Cowboy, glen Campbell at number two and at number one, love Will Keep Us Together, the Captain and Tennille, yeah, love.

00:23:18.648 --> 00:23:20.746
Now most of those songs.

00:23:20.746 --> 00:23:22.330
I've got to say a lot of songs.

00:23:22.330 --> 00:23:23.071
I've got to say a lot of them.

00:23:23.071 --> 00:23:24.133
I think I like pretty much all of them.

00:23:24.313 --> 00:23:26.555
Yeah, they were all classics.

00:23:26.615 --> 00:23:28.907
I guess that's a reason they're 1 to 10.

00:23:28.907 --> 00:23:35.847
Yeah, pretty much Basically, I guess favorites out of there that I would say would be Love Will Keep Us Together.

00:23:35.847 --> 00:23:37.496
That's a shit.

00:23:37.496 --> 00:23:42.901
I remember being my first girlfriend and she would play that yeah, 7th grade dude Right.

00:23:42.901 --> 00:23:44.445
We didn't last long.

00:23:44.645 --> 00:23:50.989
So love, don't keep us together yeah, the thank god I'm a country boy was my brother's favorite song.

00:23:51.029 --> 00:24:19.742
He'd play it over and over and over in the bedroom next to ours, right, so I could hear that all the time and laugh on the farm I can tell you a lot of these songs I remember, probably from then, but then has like famed no, because I got into rock more when I was a little older, Right right, right, right you know I'm like if I heard it it was like, yeah, but shining star, I'll be telling you right now, I'm blown away that it's that stood the test of time.

00:24:19.803 --> 00:24:25.067
That song 75, I'm like this is something, see, devon will get into that too.

00:24:25.186 --> 00:24:27.909
I guarantee it, because it's still a great song.

00:24:27.989 --> 00:24:29.951
If you hear what Devon listens to, it's funny.

00:24:29.951 --> 00:24:31.432
He's listening to Cameo.

00:24:32.173 --> 00:24:33.013
Kool-Aid Gang.

00:24:33.013 --> 00:24:34.494
He's got an old soul.

00:24:34.494 --> 00:24:35.496
Yes, he does.

00:24:35.496 --> 00:24:37.656
He was raised with one.

00:24:40.269 --> 00:24:42.942
Yes, so anyway, he's got good taste in music.

00:24:42.942 --> 00:24:46.872
Heck yeah, we won't hold it against you that your favorite artist is Michael Jackson.

00:24:46.872 --> 00:24:55.869
No, just kidding, but anyways, that's the top 40 of the year, top 40 of 1975.

00:24:55.869 --> 00:24:58.233
So what did you think?

00:24:58.233 --> 00:25:03.378
I thought they were great songs and, like I said again, 1 to 10.

00:25:03.378 --> 00:25:08.048
Most of those ring a bell and I actually enjoy all of them.

00:25:08.048 --> 00:25:12.450
Philadelphia Freedom Elton John Rhinestone Cowboy was a big song.

00:25:12.450 --> 00:25:19.548

Yeah, man, I'm not a very good picture taker.

00:26:10.451 --> 00:26:14.313

00:26:14.313 --> 00:26:15.153
Smile, yeah, why?

00:26:15.153 --> 00:26:17.335

The people that it was me and you, the people that are going to listen to us this is the first time they're going to see us.

00:26:31.428 --> 00:26:34.228
You don't make a very good first impression.

00:26:34.228 --> 00:26:35.986
Squeak, people listen to us.

00:26:35.986 --> 00:26:36.682
Yeah, you know.

00:26:36.682 --> 00:26:38.185
You could have put the beer down.

00:26:38.185 --> 00:26:39.830
No, wait, a minute.

00:26:39.830 --> 00:26:42.011
Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

00:26:42.011 --> 00:26:45.087
Why would I put the beer down?

Because we're taking it in one second.

00:26:47.827 --> 00:26:48.230
Squeak.

All you had to do was put the beer down, get our picture taken, you know, and you could have cleaned up all the snacks.

00:26:55.440 --> 00:26:59.147
Do you realize what happened to Tokyo in one second?

00:26:59.147 --> 00:27:01.251
Yes, the bus.

00:27:01.251 --> 00:27:03.561

00:27:35.650 --> 00:27:37.405
How did I embarrass you?

00:27:37.405 --> 00:27:43.167
Okay, we had a great photo shoot that I dressed up for.

00:27:43.167 --> 00:27:46.663
That's what I want to talk to you about.

00:27:47.256 --> 00:27:57.747
My tie, my hat, my blazer, your socks, ah, squeak, I did that just for you, just for me.

00:27:57.747 --> 00:27:59.842
I knew you loved that look.

Oh, so you pretended to be stupid, to impress me, not to impress you, to make you smile, not to impress you, to make you smile.

00:28:12.849 --> 00:28:16.076
Well, you sure made me look smarter.

00:28:16.076 --> 00:28:19.998
Yeah, you look really smart with that shirt halfway up your belly.

00:28:19.998 --> 00:28:22.500
Well, you know what?

00:28:22.500 --> 00:28:24.461
You just crawled out of a dumpster.

00:28:24.461 --> 00:28:26.982
Well, okay, maybe.

00:28:26.982 --> 00:28:29.624
Maybe Are you going to blame Troy for the turbulence?

00:28:29.624 --> 00:28:30.224
No, no, maybe.

00:28:30.224 --> 00:28:33.306
Maybe Are you going to blame Troy for the turbulence?

00:28:33.306 --> 00:28:34.487
No, no, no, no.

00:28:34.487 --> 00:28:37.449
Maybe I did come out of a dumpster.

00:28:37.449 --> 00:28:41.270
Well, I was a prom night dumpster baby.

00:28:41.270 --> 00:28:43.813
That's nothing to be proud of, sweet, it's not?

00:28:43.813 --> 00:28:48.484
No, well, at least we got invited to the prom.

00:28:48.484 --> 00:28:51.099
Who got invited to the prom?

00:28:51.099 --> 00:28:52.284
Who got invited to the prom?

00:28:52.284 --> 00:28:52.565
Our moms?

00:28:52.565 --> 00:28:56.441
We just didn't make it.

00:28:56.441 --> 00:29:00.086
We got to the dumpster and then that was it.

00:29:00.086 --> 00:29:03.644
That's a very sad story, squeak.

00:29:03.644 --> 00:29:06.544
Well, only, if you think about it, sad.

00:29:06.916 --> 00:29:11.163
Now I want to ask you Do you have anything nice to wear at all?

00:29:11.163 --> 00:29:18.875
Yeah, and you decided to wear some frumpy shorts and a too small of a t-shirt.

00:29:18.875 --> 00:29:27.690
Okay, first off, if I would have been told that there was going to be cameras, I would have slicked up.

00:29:27.690 --> 00:29:34.442
When people tell you, hey, we're going to get our picture taken, what do you think Someone's going to be there with their iPhone?

00:29:34.442 --> 00:29:37.523
No, I thought we were going to get dates.

00:29:37.523 --> 00:29:39.189
Dates, yeah.

00:29:39.189 --> 00:29:41.194
What do you mean dates for?

00:29:41.615 --> 00:29:44.605
That's usually what happens when I get my picture taken.

00:29:44.605 --> 00:29:50.246
Sir, can you drop your trousers and we will take a couple shots and put it out there.

00:29:50.246 --> 00:29:53.082
We're not doing those kind of pictures.

00:29:53.082 --> 00:29:57.066
Oh, that wasn't the kind, it wasn't.

00:29:57.066 --> 00:29:59.865
No, this was to show Mike and Tom.

00:29:59.865 --> 00:30:04.000
Give them a picture of us so they can show the people.

00:30:04.000 --> 00:30:06.760
So Mike and Tom are into porno?

00:30:06.760 --> 00:30:10.880
No, no, no, didn't say that either.

00:30:10.880 --> 00:30:14.952
Oh, no, no, once again, you're hearing what you want Squeak.

00:30:14.952 --> 00:30:17.482
You said they wanted to take a picture naked.

00:30:17.482 --> 00:30:20.143
No, no one said anything about being naked.

00:30:20.143 --> 00:30:22.523
You're hearing naked for some reason.

00:30:22.523 --> 00:30:26.199
Sorry, there's no porn, no porn at all.

00:30:26.199 --> 00:30:28.516
No porn, no porn, not here.

00:30:28.516 --> 00:30:29.660
Well, there's no porn.

00:30:29.660 --> 00:30:31.546
Yeah, you're right, there is no porn.

00:30:31.775 --> 00:30:34.921
So did you come in with Troy today?

00:30:34.921 --> 00:30:38.669
Yes, and, and what?

00:30:38.669 --> 00:30:40.141
Well, how did the ride go?

00:30:40.141 --> 00:30:42.361
It was a little choppy.

00:30:42.361 --> 00:30:44.204
Were you in the helicopter?

00:30:44.204 --> 00:30:46.606
Were you hanging from the helicopter?

00:30:46.606 --> 00:30:50.557
I don't hang from the helicopter, oh, again.

00:30:50.557 --> 00:30:51.843
Do you sit in his lap?

00:30:51.843 --> 00:30:54.980
No, no, again.

00:30:54.980 --> 00:30:59.417
I only sit in one person's lap and that's Santa Claus.

00:30:59.417 --> 00:31:01.563
That's right, okay, alright.

00:31:01.583 --> 00:31:03.247
So not Troy, not Troy.

00:31:03.247 --> 00:31:05.739
Yeah, me and him are just buddies.

00:31:05.739 --> 00:31:07.506
Butt buddies, nope, no, no, not butt buddies.

00:31:07.506 --> 00:31:11.720
Butt buddies, nope, no, no, not butt buddies.

00:31:11.720 --> 00:31:14.415
Well, what kind of buddies we're?

00:31:14.415 --> 00:31:16.301
Just acquaintances.

00:31:16.804 --> 00:31:20.884
Oh, and them big words you try to use every week?

00:31:20.884 --> 00:31:23.704
Oh, big words, acquaintances.

00:31:23.704 --> 00:31:26.363
I had to study that one a minute.

00:31:26.363 --> 00:31:29.603
Was it a spectacular drive-in?

00:31:29.603 --> 00:31:33.461
Yeah, it was pretty fun.

00:31:33.461 --> 00:31:36.604
Would you say it was spectacular?

00:31:36.604 --> 00:31:41.626
I would say you're trying to trip me up with these great big old frickin' words.

00:31:41.626 --> 00:31:45.762
No, it was tubalonica-ker.

00:31:45.762 --> 00:31:49.121
Oh, oh, yeah, tubalonica-ker, say that one.

00:31:49.121 --> 00:31:51.055
Yeah, tubulonica-ker, say that one.

00:31:51.055 --> 00:31:53.903
I don't even know what you're trying to say.

00:31:53.903 --> 00:31:58.542
Squeak, I'm trying to say it was tubonicular.

00:31:58.542 --> 00:32:00.385
Oh, tubular.

00:32:00.385 --> 00:32:04.363
No, why would you say you can't even say it.

00:32:04.363 --> 00:32:07.574
I don't want to say it because it's not even a damn word.

00:32:07.815 --> 00:32:09.180
Well, what about this?

00:32:09.180 --> 00:32:12.643
Spack, tickle, tickle, lure?

00:32:12.643 --> 00:32:15.825
Hey, can you be careful with that donut?

00:32:15.825 --> 00:32:17.782
You're getting cinnamon all over my jacket.

00:32:17.782 --> 00:32:19.440
Well, cinnamon, whatever.

00:32:19.440 --> 00:32:23.443
You want to say them big words again.

00:32:23.443 --> 00:32:25.061
Maybe you should wipe your hands.

00:32:25.134 --> 00:32:26.397
How about brown sugar?

00:32:26.397 --> 00:32:36.385
Brown sugar, ooh, no, no, no, no, no, that's what semen is Brown sugar?

00:32:36.385 --> 00:32:39.603
Oh, I know, but why are you getting it all over me?

00:32:39.603 --> 00:32:48.902
Well, well, if you wouldn't be so close when I ate my semen toast, you're leaning into me.

00:32:48.902 --> 00:32:50.205
Leaning.

00:32:50.205 --> 00:32:52.061
My coat is not a napkin.

00:32:52.061 --> 00:32:56.204
No, I didn't lean into anything, I just fell.

00:32:56.204 --> 00:33:01.722
Oh, we're not leaning, we're falling.

00:33:02.424 --> 00:33:05.086
You're falling, falling for who?

00:33:05.086 --> 00:33:07.661
Falling in love?

00:33:07.661 --> 00:33:14.666
Oh, okay, elvis, yeah, well, you've heard them guys talking about all that music.

00:33:14.666 --> 00:33:19.145
It brings me back to my music Falling in love.

00:33:19.145 --> 00:33:21.162
Your music is all over the place.

00:33:21.201 --> 00:33:23.344
Squeak, yeah, like Donny Osmond.

00:33:23.344 --> 00:33:26.721
Donny Osmond, why would you bring him up?

00:33:26.721 --> 00:33:28.921
Well, because that's what my kind of music is.

00:33:28.921 --> 00:33:29.785
Donny Osmond, you like Donny Osmond?

00:33:29.785 --> 00:33:30.407
Why would you bring him up?

00:33:30.407 --> 00:33:31.712
Well, because that's what my kind of music is.

00:33:31.712 --> 00:33:36.345
Donny Osmond, you like Donny and Marie, go away, little girl.

00:33:36.345 --> 00:33:39.182
Oh goodness gracious.

00:33:39.182 --> 00:33:43.124
Yeah, I'm not supposed to be alone with you.

00:33:43.124 --> 00:33:47.125
I'm a little bit country, I'm a little bit rock and roll.

00:33:47.125 --> 00:33:50.039
Well, if you want to go there.

00:33:50.039 --> 00:33:53.307
But I like the young little girl, go away.

00:33:53.827 --> 00:33:57.801
Marie, marie Osmond, no, that's his sister.

00:33:57.801 --> 00:33:59.846
He ain't that way with her.

00:33:59.846 --> 00:34:01.480
Oh, I thought you liked her.

00:34:01.480 --> 00:34:05.586
Well, well, you know, there is that one time.

00:34:05.586 --> 00:34:09.003
Squeak, she wouldn't give you a second look.

00:34:09.003 --> 00:34:10.634
Well, maybe to laugh at you.

00:34:11.036 --> 00:34:13.784
That's why there was that one time At Bandcamp.

00:34:13.784 --> 00:34:16.340
No, no, no, no Bandcamp at all.

00:34:16.340 --> 00:34:18.025
Teen Magazine.

00:34:18.025 --> 00:34:19.014
Wait a minute, wait a minute.

00:34:19.014 --> 00:34:20.842
Mike and Tom have a rule.

00:34:20.842 --> 00:34:22.882
Anytime you say this one time.

00:34:23.436 --> 00:34:25.952
Oh well, okay, one time at Bandcamp.

00:34:25.952 --> 00:34:34.262
Yeah, I opened up Teen Magazine oh, okay, not the way I thought that was gonna go, but alright.

00:34:34.262 --> 00:34:37.965
And there was Marie Osmond In a centerfold.

00:34:37.965 --> 00:34:44.603
Only one time she had clothes on, yeah, but only one time.

00:34:44.603 --> 00:34:46.233
Well, what's the point of that?

00:34:46.233 --> 00:34:51.599
Well, because all the other times the pages were stuck together, couldn't get them open.

00:34:51.599 --> 00:34:54.291
I wonder why they were stuck together.

00:34:54.291 --> 00:34:57.184
Squeak, well, that was another, another story.

00:34:57.184 --> 00:34:58.753
That's a different situation.

00:34:58.753 --> 00:35:00.521
We'll save that for another time.

00:35:00.521 --> 00:35:03.025
You don't have to tell that story either.

00:35:03.025 --> 00:35:05.346
Okay, yeah, we'd appreciate it if you wouldn't.

00:35:05.668 --> 00:35:08.302
Fine, I think people have a visual already.

00:35:08.302 --> 00:35:09.958
A visual?

00:35:09.958 --> 00:35:12.081
Oh, I hope not, but you know what I mean.

00:35:12.081 --> 00:35:13.760
They get where you're going, buddy.

00:35:13.760 --> 00:35:15.402
They get where you're going.

00:35:15.402 --> 00:35:20.141
Wouldn't you give your hand to a friend?

00:35:20.141 --> 00:35:22.463
What do you think they'll do with that picture?

00:35:22.463 --> 00:35:27.498
Huh, they're probably going to paste it all over freaking the internet.

00:35:27.498 --> 00:35:28.503
You know what I heard?

00:35:28.503 --> 00:35:29.317
What?

00:35:29.317 --> 00:35:30.521
This is just a rumor.

00:35:30.521 --> 00:35:37.503
I heard they're gonna edit somebody out of the picture and put someone different looking in there.

00:35:37.503 --> 00:35:40.010
What do you mean?

00:35:40.010 --> 00:35:47.760
I guess there was someone in the picture that doesn't fit right with the image, so they're thinking about using a model.

00:35:47.760 --> 00:35:49.338
Okay, wait a minute.

00:35:49.338 --> 00:35:56.836
I didn't say it was you, no, no, I'm just sad because I wanted to be in the picture with you.

00:35:56.836 --> 00:36:03.257
And if they take you out and put a model in there, well, that's gonna piss me off.

00:36:03.257 --> 00:36:04.543
But what if they take?

00:36:04.695 --> 00:36:05.277
you out.

00:36:05.780 --> 00:36:09.364
Why would they take me out Just saying it's 50-50.

00:36:09.364 --> 00:36:13.637
No, no, no, yeah, it sure is Okay.

00:36:13.637 --> 00:36:15.443
Where'd you learn your math?

00:36:15.443 --> 00:36:18.001
50-50.

00:36:18.001 --> 00:36:20.262
Let's look at the picture More like 20-80.

00:36:20.262 --> 00:36:24.525
Who's got the suit on looks proper and who's drinking a beer?

00:36:24.525 --> 00:36:26.302
Okay, maybe let's read.

00:36:26.302 --> 00:36:27.840
Okay, let's readjust the math.

00:36:27.840 --> 00:36:30.331
Okay, alright, readjust the math.

00:36:30.331 --> 00:36:31.514
Okay, all right, go ahead.

00:36:31.514 --> 00:36:33.364
Maybe it's 592.

00:36:33.364 --> 00:36:34.954
592?

00:36:34.954 --> 00:36:38.413
Yeah, five your way and 92 mine.

00:36:38.413 --> 00:36:40.420
Well, guess the other three?

00:36:40.420 --> 00:36:42.947
They're dumber than shit.

00:36:42.947 --> 00:36:45.182
They don't know what they want to vote on.

00:36:45.182 --> 00:36:53.739
But I'm just saying, if we look at the picture as a whole, what looks off the whole?

00:36:53.739 --> 00:36:54.603
Yeah, the whole.

00:36:54.603 --> 00:36:56.333
Yeah, that's what looks off.

00:36:56.333 --> 00:36:58.222
What looks off on the picture?

00:36:58.222 --> 00:37:00.143
Yeah, that's what looks off.

00:37:00.195 --> 00:37:06.255
Maybe the frumpy guy with his t-shirt over his belly no, beer spilt all over.

00:37:06.255 --> 00:37:11.706
Listen, any boy that's standing around with a beer in his hand's gotta be the leader of the band.

00:37:11.706 --> 00:37:15.184
He looks miserable, miserable.

00:37:15.184 --> 00:37:17.262
He looks like he's pissed at the world.

00:37:17.262 --> 00:37:20.083
Looks like he just told the funniest damn joke in the world.

00:37:20.083 --> 00:37:27.262
Well, yeah, that would be that handsome guy, that thin one there With two different socks.

00:37:28.335 --> 00:37:29.800
Who's looking at the socks?

00:37:29.800 --> 00:37:33.340
You, Evidently You're the only one looking at the socks.

00:37:33.340 --> 00:37:37.501
Freak, that's the first thing I saw, at least I wear socks.

00:37:37.501 --> 00:37:40.262
Okay, let's see I'm Okay.

00:37:40.262 --> 00:37:45.855
They've been doing these music things, 1975.

00:37:45.875 --> 00:37:48.898
Oh Well, I was only 13 years old.

00:37:48.898 --> 00:37:49.795
Well, how old do you think I was only 13 years old?

00:37:49.795 --> 00:37:51.626
Well, how old do you think I was?

00:37:51.626 --> 00:37:52.713
Look at that Pip.

00:37:52.713 --> 00:37:55.262
How old's Pip Pip?

00:37:55.262 --> 00:38:00.001
Yeah, I don't know how old he is, probably 20, 30.

00:38:00.001 --> 00:38:06.487
So he should be able to pick out two same damn color socks.

00:38:07.715 --> 00:38:10.460
I, I, yeah, I don't believe in that.

00:38:10.460 --> 00:38:14.762
You made fun of my socks, so this is what you're gonna get all the time.

00:38:14.762 --> 00:38:18.248
Well, huh, and you know what?

00:38:18.248 --> 00:38:23.460
I was complimented on it from people saying Boy, that's pretty smart.

00:38:23.460 --> 00:38:27.184
Yeah, just who cares what socks, as long as he got socks?

00:38:27.184 --> 00:38:30.503
Yeah, my wife does that to me all the time.

00:38:30.503 --> 00:38:40.588
Look it, at least I have socks, okay, well, I'm not going to get jelly donut on my damn socks because I don't have none.

00:38:40.588 --> 00:38:43.505
Well, I'm not either, because I'm not eating a jelly donut.

00:38:43.505 --> 00:38:45.282
Well, that's your fault.

00:38:45.282 --> 00:38:48.885
You look in the picture and all this stuff is yours.

00:38:48.885 --> 00:38:50.532
No, not all of it.

00:38:50.532 --> 00:38:53.101
You like that damn chips?

00:38:53.101 --> 00:38:57.413
Okay, okay, I'll give you that.

00:38:57.413 --> 00:38:59.541
Well, I had a bag of chips.

00:38:59.541 --> 00:39:00.146
Wait a minute.

00:39:00.146 --> 00:39:00.728
Wait a minute.

00:39:00.728 --> 00:39:02.657
You're going to give them to me?

00:39:02.657 --> 00:39:05.181
Yeah, you can have them.

00:39:05.181 --> 00:39:07.746
Good, okay, fine, thank you.

00:39:07.746 --> 00:39:12.440
Okay, see, you can get along with me.

00:39:12.440 --> 00:39:14.909
Yeah, because you're taking my snacks.

00:39:14.909 --> 00:39:16.202
No, I'm not taking them.

00:39:16.202 --> 00:39:21.117
You gave them to me, oh, because I feel bad and, on that note, I'm out of here.

00:39:21.137 --> 00:39:21.458
Why are?

00:39:21.478 --> 00:39:23.199
you feeling bad about me?

00:39:23.199 --> 00:39:28.682
I'm gonna go report you to somebody I don't know who yet, but I'm gonna find somebody.

00:39:28.682 --> 00:39:32.405
Maybe I can get Troy to not take you in next time.

00:39:32.405 --> 00:39:34.378
The aviation department?

00:39:34.378 --> 00:39:36.702
Yeah, yeah, that's what I'll do.

00:39:36.702 --> 00:39:41.634
No, all right, squeak, I'll talk to you next time if I have to.

00:39:41.634 --> 00:39:42.817
All right.

00:39:44.021 --> 00:39:44.362
Bye.

00:39:44.362 --> 00:39:51.615
Well, I guess Squeak wasn't too happy with his little photo shoot.

00:39:51.996 --> 00:39:56.152
Okay, well, first off, is Squeak ever really happy?

00:39:57.894 --> 00:40:00.318
No, okay, there we go, there we go.

00:40:00.318 --> 00:40:02.391
I see he dressed up for the occasion.

00:40:02.391 --> 00:40:11.496
Yeah, of course, good old Squeak playing Pip for not telling him, which I think everybody pretty much told him.

00:40:11.896 --> 00:40:16.413
Yeah, yeah, well, and he's going to give him hell about them socks.

00:40:17.396 --> 00:40:17.956
That's all right.

00:40:17.956 --> 00:40:20.853
I think that's why Pip is doing it now.

00:40:21.125 --> 00:40:22.108
I think just a bugging Get under his skin.

00:40:22.108 --> 00:40:22.268
Yep, yep.

00:40:22.268 --> 00:40:24.112
But anyways, back to our 1975 journey of music.

00:40:24.132 --> 00:40:24.934
I think that's why Pip is doing it now.

00:40:24.934 --> 00:40:25.916
I think just a buggy Get under his skin, yep, yep.

00:40:25.916 --> 00:40:28.643
But anyways, back to our 1975 journey of music.

00:40:28.643 --> 00:40:32.509
Heck, yeah, you know what I wanted to talk about.

00:40:32.509 --> 00:40:33.971
Before we get into that, though.

00:40:33.971 --> 00:40:37.695
Okay, some of the toys that came out in 75.

00:40:37.695 --> 00:40:39.737
You brought this up before, tom, yeah.

00:40:41.039 --> 00:40:42.181
I remember toys.

00:40:42.181 --> 00:40:45.134
I think, it's a good little nostalgia trip to go down.

00:40:45.134 --> 00:40:55.827
Well, because you've got to figure in 1975 I was in third grade, I was in seventh, okay, I'm not sure what kind of toys you were into.

00:40:55.827 --> 00:40:58.355
What are you insinuating?

00:40:58.355 --> 00:41:13.521
But I'm wondering if see, I don't even know if 1975 was the year it came out, but I remember the toy I wanted the most in my mind right now was the Squirmle.

00:41:14.726 --> 00:41:18.130
I don't even know what the hell that is, don't you have one of those already.

00:41:18.706 --> 00:41:21.233
Well, it didn't have a string.

00:41:21.233 --> 00:41:27.356
Oh, okay, this Squirmle was a fuzzy little worm.

00:41:27.356 --> 00:41:31.885
I remember those stupid things With a fishing line tied to it.

00:41:31.885 --> 00:41:33.336
Yeah, because you couldn't see the stupid line.

00:41:33.336 --> 00:41:37.876
Yeah, so you could wrap it around your button on your shirt.

00:41:37.896 --> 00:41:38.539
Oh, good Lord.

00:41:38.844 --> 00:41:42.972
Run it through your fingers and it looked real and a squirmle.

00:41:42.972 --> 00:41:44.164
Everybody real and a squirmle.

00:41:44.164 --> 00:41:46.793
Everybody freaking wanted a squirmle.

00:41:47.666 --> 00:41:48.969
What happened to your squirmle?

00:41:48.969 --> 00:41:49.771
I stole it.

00:41:50.431 --> 00:41:51.775
What happened to it Out of the store.

00:41:51.775 --> 00:41:52.898
I had to take it back.

00:41:52.898 --> 00:41:55.211
My mom found out I stole it.

00:41:57.528 --> 00:41:58.873
They weren't even that expensive.

00:41:59.905 --> 00:42:01.351
I didn't have that kind of money.

00:42:01.431 --> 00:42:05.126
I was a kid what happened to mowing lawns At eight?

00:42:05.126 --> 00:42:06.268
Why not?

00:42:06.268 --> 00:42:07.188
That's good for you.

00:42:07.889 --> 00:42:09.371
I would have chopped my foot off.

00:42:09.371 --> 00:42:13.813
I didn't even know how to pull a string back then.

00:42:14.394 --> 00:42:17.998
Well, here's a couple of the top seven.

00:42:17.998 --> 00:42:19.559
I guess that were out at the time.

00:42:19.559 --> 00:42:21.260
Yeah, all right.

00:42:21.260 --> 00:42:22.922
Number one we have the Pet Rock.

00:42:26.925 --> 00:42:29.880
I do remember the Pet Rock and I still to this day, think that's the dumbest thing ever.

00:42:29.880 --> 00:42:31.327
Yep, my mom, she made me get rid of mine.

00:42:31.769 --> 00:42:35.226
I'm surprised your mom didn't just paint a rock and said hey, I bought you this.

00:42:35.286 --> 00:42:38.936
No, she made me get rid of it because it kept peeing on the carpet.

00:42:40.885 --> 00:42:43.050
You know it doesn't really pee right, it's a rock.

00:42:43.050 --> 00:42:46.556
It was a pet, yeah, but it was a rock.

00:42:48.625 --> 00:42:49.634
But if you gave it too much water?

00:42:50.844 --> 00:42:55.418
Oh, I am a highland I got you.

00:42:56.425 --> 00:42:59.751
Okay, here's one that I do remember, and my friend Sean had one.

00:42:59.751 --> 00:43:04.297

Now on YouTube there's a guy that actually has one.

00:43:09.630 --> 00:43:11.628
He does all kinds of tricks with it.

00:43:11.768 --> 00:43:13.373

Yeah, it was fold-out alright, but there was no grill involved.

00:44:08.235 --> 00:44:11.101
No, no, and Big Jim had a camper.

00:44:12.827 --> 00:44:13.871
Oh, we're back to your coach.

See they don't get pushed around too easy.

00:44:51.990 --> 00:44:53.416
They had like little police and firemen and they had all of them.

00:44:53.436 --> 00:44:54.880
They all had the same kind of body.

00:44:55.105 --> 00:45:00.193
Yeah, and they all rode this little thing and they weebled and wobbled.

00:45:00.193 --> 00:45:04.170
Yeah, you turn it on and it was magnetic, but they never fell down.

00:45:04.592 --> 00:45:06.306
No, never Okay.

Wasn't that like a version of the?

00:45:09.989 --> 00:45:10.471

00:45:10.471 --> 00:45:10.992
Yeah.

The power slides.

00:45:16.516 --> 00:45:18.389
Yeah, that was awesome.

00:45:18.389 --> 00:45:20.115
My buddy had one.

00:45:20.115 --> 00:45:21.704
I tore the shit out of it.

00:45:21.724 --> 00:45:23.240
That was your first introduction to drifting.

00:45:23.240 --> 00:45:23.605
My buddy had one.

00:45:23.605 --> 00:45:21.429
I tore the shit out of it.

00:45:21.429 --> 00:45:22.264
That was your first introduction to drifting.

00:45:24.206 --> 00:45:34.391
No, my first introduction to tearing the kids across the street, shit up and going home and going to bed sleeping, well, while they cried Mommy, my shit's torn up.

00:45:34.391 --> 00:45:36.965
Well, you shouldn't have let the neighbor kid have it.

00:45:36.965 --> 00:45:38.771
You shouldn't have let Thomas play with your shit.

00:45:38.771 --> 00:45:39.494
Exactly, see.

00:45:39.494 --> 00:45:41.431
See, we get it.

00:45:41.431 --> 00:45:43.150
Why didn't they?

00:45:43.150 --> 00:45:48.271
Now it's all my fault, but sorry, there you go Well, at least you apologize.

00:45:48.351 --> 00:45:53.476
Now Might be like 50 years too late, but hey, whatever.

00:45:54.606 --> 00:45:55.811
I don't even know where they are.

00:45:56.184 --> 00:45:58.949
All right, so we're going to move back into our music now.

00:45:58.949 --> 00:46:00.271
Music, music.

00:46:00.652 --> 00:46:01.114
Oh yeah.

00:46:02.516 --> 00:46:03.137
Music.

00:46:03.858 --> 00:46:04.360
Love music.

00:46:05.465 --> 00:46:06.730
What do you love about music?

00:46:07.431 --> 00:46:10.809
It's universal language, if you know what I mean.

00:46:12.052 --> 00:46:14.327
It is universal Alright.

00:46:14.327 --> 00:46:16.675
First song, tom, you and I both picked out.

00:46:16.675 --> 00:46:18.809
We both like Bohemian Rhapsody.

00:46:19.291 --> 00:46:19.773
Queen.

00:46:19.773 --> 00:46:42.125
Wow, I gotta tell you, the reason this song means a lot to me is this is the first song I actually remember hearing in a rock kind of environment.

00:46:42.125 --> 00:46:47.434
I didn't really know what rock was until this song started real slow.

00:46:47.434 --> 00:46:48.644
Everybody was used to it.

00:46:48.644 --> 00:46:52.130
Then it got built up and then all of a sudden bam.

00:46:52.130 --> 00:46:52.693
Yeah.

00:46:54.545 --> 00:46:55.409
Me at 13,.

00:46:55.409 --> 00:46:58.032
Of course, get into rock music more Right.

00:46:58.105 --> 00:47:03.081
This song blew me away, yeah this was a good song To me in my head and listen it does it sounds like a play Like.

00:47:03.059 --> 00:47:18.492
This was a good song To me in my head and listen it does it sounds like a play Like basically it's what it is, yeah, living out something, but then when that uh, it drops into that rock, it just also that hits hard and what also hits hard, and that was you haven't heard, you never heard anything like that back then.

00:47:18.492 --> 00:47:23.507
No, because, and here's why I think- One of the longest songs on the radio.

00:47:23.507 --> 00:47:26.210
So let me read a little background here.

00:47:26.230 --> 00:47:28.010
Yeah, let's hear what he said.

00:47:28.070 --> 00:47:35.677
Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen, released in 75 on their album A Night at the Opera, is a groundbreaking and genre-defying rock epic.

00:47:35.677 --> 00:47:43.942
Written by Freddie Mercury, the song blends elements of ballad opera, hard rock and progressive rock into a six-minute masterpiece with no traditional chorus.

00:47:43.942 --> 00:47:51.931
The lyrics are mysterious and dramatic, telling the story of a young man who confesses to a murder and grapples with guilt, fate and existential dread.

00:47:51.931 --> 00:48:03.648
The song structure shifts dramatically from soft piano-led intro into a multi-layered operatic section full of surreal imagery and finally to a thunderous rock climax and somber outro.

00:48:03.648 --> 00:48:08.329
When it was released, many doubted its radio potential, which we just talked about.

00:48:08.329 --> 00:48:13.568
Right, it became a massive hit and is now considered one of the greatest and most innovative songs in rock history.

00:48:13.568 --> 00:48:21.806
Freddie Mercury's powerful vocals, brian May's soaring guitar solo and the band's solo experimentation made Bohemian Rhapsody a timeless classic.

00:48:21.806 --> 00:48:22.088
Right Alright.

00:48:22.108 --> 00:48:23.652
So what do you think made Bohemian Rhapsody a?

00:48:23.672 --> 00:48:25.255
timeless, classic, right, all right.

00:48:25.255 --> 00:48:26.617
So what do you think?

00:48:27.784 --> 00:48:29.268
Like Bohemian Rhapsody.

00:48:29.530 --> 00:48:30.132
Good song.

00:48:30.512 --> 00:48:31.134
Great song.

00:48:31.534 --> 00:48:32.257
Excellent song.

00:48:32.257 --> 00:48:36.592
What memories do you have of this song?

00:48:36.592 --> 00:48:41.885
First memories Doesn't mean when it first came out, when you first, first heard the song, when.

00:48:41.925 --> 00:48:44.972
I first, first, remembered the song.

00:48:44.972 --> 00:48:52.293
I had a girlfriend that had a Gremlin and I was in the back seat.

00:48:52.293 --> 00:48:54.211
So you had a real-life Wayne's World.

00:48:54.211 --> 00:49:01.418
Not really, it was a real-life Gremlin, but I didn't play hockey or anything.

00:49:02.447 --> 00:49:04.635
Did you sing Bohemian Rhapsody in the car?

00:49:05.605 --> 00:49:17.840
No, I didn't sing that in the car, but I just remember the car Like Galileo, galileo, galileo, galileo, figaro, yeah, manicapo.

00:49:18.905 --> 00:49:19.927
First time hearing this.

00:49:19.927 --> 00:49:21.632
I've got to admit I was kind of blown away.

00:49:21.632 --> 00:49:22.775
It was a little different.

00:49:22.775 --> 00:49:24.291
I remember going what the hell is this?

00:49:24.525 --> 00:49:28.492
Yeah, it was like slow and then all of a sudden it got rockin'.

00:49:28.532 --> 00:49:29.313
Rockin'.

00:49:29.313 --> 00:49:36.574
Wow yeah, and you're just thinking you had this stage show or something in your own head and I'm like, holy crap, very theatrical.

00:49:37.465 --> 00:49:38.226
Very, very much.

00:49:38.226 --> 00:49:42.974
So it took you back to like Bugs Bunny when you were at the opera.

00:49:43.393 --> 00:49:47.260
I think I keep bringing up the jukebox in school in junior high.

00:49:49.405 --> 00:49:50.528
I think this was also on that jukebox.

00:49:50.528 --> 00:49:51.471
It has to have been Dr Hook.

00:49:51.471 --> 00:49:52.735
It has to have been.

00:49:52.735 --> 00:49:54.411
This is a classic.

00:49:54.411 --> 00:49:59.155
This is one of the greatest songs of 1975, in my opinion.

00:50:00.085 --> 00:50:07.717
It is an awesome song, Tom, but I guess from there we'll go on to what about yours?

00:50:07.717 --> 00:50:09.251
I mean, that was both of ours.

00:50:09.251 --> 00:50:10.936
We both have some different ones.

00:50:10.936 --> 00:50:11.945
So what else do you have?

00:50:12.204 --> 00:50:15.512
I have, well, I've got.

00:50:15.512 --> 00:50:18.498
You know, went a country way.

00:50:18.838 --> 00:50:19.119
Right.

00:50:20.505 --> 00:50:26.838
And a lot of people who know me know that my country stuff is Ronnie Millsap.

00:50:26.838 --> 00:50:35.248
Hold that thought for a minute, and what?

00:50:35.289 --> 00:50:35.570
song.

00:50:37.206 --> 00:51:09.994
This one is Daydreams About Night Things, and I think what brings me to Ronnieonnie milsap is when I was young, I grew up in a small town everybody knows out in the midwest and I was walking one day and about four blocks away from where I lived there was a huge bus in front of the yard Right, and on the front of the bus it said Ronnie Millsap.

00:51:11.438 --> 00:51:13.724
Oh tour bus, tour bus Shit.

00:51:13.724 --> 00:51:31.532
So evidently his driver actually his driver had family there in Atwood and that's where I first saw the bus and as an eight-year-old kid I'm like wow, oh yeah, that's cool, yeah.

00:51:31.532 --> 00:51:35.896
And they let me come on and look in this bus and it was just amazing.

00:51:35.896 --> 00:51:38.472
So now I knew who Ronnie Millsap was.

00:51:38.472 --> 00:51:40.893
Oh, so you didn't then Not at that point.

00:51:41.385 --> 00:51:43.010
So that's what made you more of a fan.

00:51:43.030 --> 00:51:45.451
Yeah, yeah, that's how it usually goes.

00:51:45.490 --> 00:51:45.692
Yeah.

00:51:46.065 --> 00:51:51.797
And then, when I got married and had my own money and everything, every time Ronnie Millsap came out.

00:51:51.797 --> 00:51:57.675
As a matter of fact, my very first date with my wife, I took her to a Kenny.

00:51:57.735 --> 00:51:58.155
Rogers.

00:51:58.597 --> 00:52:00.119
Yep, Some other woman.

00:52:00.119 --> 00:52:05.034
We went to a Kenny Rogers, Ronnie Millsap and Oak Ridge Boys.

00:52:05.034 --> 00:52:06.217
Oh, okay.

00:52:06.217 --> 00:52:12.431
And Andy Andrews was a comedian and he opened up for all of them.

00:52:12.431 --> 00:52:15.672
Okay, alright, that was our very first date.

00:52:15.844 --> 00:52:19.250
I know who Ronnie Millsap is because we talked about one of my favorite songs.

00:52:19.250 --> 00:52:21.251
I've never heard this one.

00:52:21.251 --> 00:52:28.253
Yeah, Ronnie Millsap is a great singer, I'll admit it, not on my radar.

00:52:28.505 --> 00:52:30.344
I'm not saying the song sucks, I just never heard it.

00:52:30.344 --> 00:52:35.768
Right right, a lot of people don't know Ronnie does like he did a version of Collagia.

00:52:36.210 --> 00:52:36.431
Right.

00:52:37.025 --> 00:52:38.110
That was just awesome.

00:52:38.110 --> 00:52:40.365
It was a good song.

00:52:40.385 --> 00:52:41.007
What the hell is that?

00:52:41.606 --> 00:52:41.867
Collagia.

00:52:41.867 --> 00:52:43.489
Oh, okay, I it was a good song.

00:52:43.489 --> 00:52:43.969
What the?

00:52:44.028 --> 00:52:44.969
hell, is that Collage?

00:52:44.969 --> 00:52:48.793
Oh, okay, I do know that song, now that you attempt to sing it.

00:52:48.873 --> 00:52:55.019
Yeah, poor old Indian Head, indian Head, yeah yeah, he was an Indian Head outside of a store.

00:52:55.019 --> 00:52:56.420
Did you not ever hear the song?

00:52:56.420 --> 00:53:00.048
Listen to it no yeah.

00:53:00.349 --> 00:53:01.391
You know me with lyrics.

00:53:01.492 --> 00:53:06.545
Anyways, yeah, collage, he goes through this all the time with the lyrics Indian wooden head, and he had a.

00:53:06.545 --> 00:53:12.438
Across the road there was a lady Indian statue and yeah, okay.

00:53:13.146 --> 00:53:14.469
Is that what that song's all about?

00:53:14.469 --> 00:53:15.351
Yeah, oh shit.

00:53:15.833 --> 00:53:16.556
All right then.

00:53:18.246 --> 00:53:25.190
All right, so my next song Cool Is Sweet Ballroom Blitz.

00:53:25.972 --> 00:53:29.159
Sweet Ballroom.

00:53:29.199 --> 00:53:29.498
Blitz.

00:53:29.498 --> 00:53:32.313
Do you know the song Tom Ballroom Blitz?

00:53:32.313 --> 00:53:34.052
You do know the song, right yeah?

00:53:35.525 --> 00:53:36.690
That is the song, isn't it?

00:53:36.905 --> 00:53:37.489
I'm going to play a.

00:53:37.489 --> 00:53:41.815
This is going to be a different studio track than people used to listen to.

00:53:41.815 --> 00:53:45.748
Okay, I mean, everybody knows that intro.

00:53:46.190 --> 00:53:50.637
Yeah, Wayne's World.

00:53:51.259 --> 00:53:59.371
There you go, Anyways, growing up like we talked about a little, really last time, yep, once I heard this one.

00:54:00.326 --> 00:54:01.490
Yeah, this is a good one.

00:54:01.706 --> 00:54:04.134
But you know, it's that glam rock time in the 70s.

00:54:04.134 --> 00:54:07.210
I just like the sound of the band.

00:54:07.210 --> 00:54:11.106
To me this was like I said when I was really.

00:54:11.106 --> 00:54:13.931
To me this was heavy At that age.

00:54:13.931 --> 00:54:14.492
This is heavy.

00:54:14.492 --> 00:54:15.789
That's what I'm thinking.

00:54:15.789 --> 00:54:20.351
Even though you had Aerosmith out Zeppelin, I guess it was different.

00:54:20.351 --> 00:54:24.335
And a lot of people when I was listening to this were like, oh, kiss is better.

00:54:24.335 --> 00:54:29.172
Yeah, probably Kiss was better, but I was just a Right, I guess I wanted to be different.

00:54:29.465 --> 00:54:36.849
Yeah, that's what it was about, but I loved the suite I love and unfortunately pretty much all of them are dead now, except for one of them.

00:54:37.068 --> 00:54:37.389
Yeah.

00:54:37.409 --> 00:54:38.289
That's just the way it is.

00:54:38.289 --> 00:54:42.612
You know our idols, our rock idols, our music idols.

00:54:42.612 --> 00:54:45.215
You know, when we were younger, they were older.

00:54:45.215 --> 00:54:49.418
That's just the way it is, yep exactly you try to look for something different now.

00:54:49.418 --> 00:54:56.282
But now the suite was definitely and to this day, tom, I still have Desolation Boulevard CD in my truck.

00:54:56.302 --> 00:54:57.302
There you go, there you go.

00:54:58.505 --> 00:55:00.132
So what about your next one, Tom?

00:55:00.344 --> 00:55:04.175
My next one is going to be Pink Floyd.

00:55:04.175 --> 00:55:06.489
Ah, which one, tom.

00:55:06.489 --> 00:55:07.610
I Wish you Were here.

00:55:08.184 --> 00:55:09.576
Pink Floyd Wish you Were here.

00:55:09.576 --> 00:55:10.603
Yeah, that's Good song.

00:55:11.028 --> 00:55:11.639
Good album.

00:55:11.639 --> 00:55:11.885
Actually.

00:55:11.885 --> 00:55:37.195
I enjoy that song and I think what really makes it hit home with me is when I was eight and my dad I mean he wasn't around a lot when I was little, right but this song, when I first heard it, that's the first thing I thought of is I wish you were here.

00:55:37.195 --> 00:55:49.753
I wish you were here and that song, just the mellow music, just based me and it put me in a level of I don't know.

00:55:49.753 --> 00:55:57.554
It was just different, right For a situation I was in at that time and it just brings back some memories.

00:55:58.164 --> 00:55:59.710
Well, that sounds sad though, Tom.

00:55:59.710 --> 00:56:00.494
Well it is.

00:56:00.494 --> 00:56:02.733
I'm sorry to hear that's a crappy memory.

00:56:02.733 --> 00:56:04.652
It's not really a crappy memory.

00:56:04.804 --> 00:56:12.092
It's a great memory because later on in life my dad changed and became part.

00:56:12.092 --> 00:56:21.646
It was a lot different, but when I was little, yeah, I wish he was there and he eventually was, so it's like the song came true for me.

00:56:21.646 --> 00:56:22.911
So it was a great song.

00:56:22.911 --> 00:56:27.114
It's a whole lot of part of my childhood.

00:56:27.646 --> 00:56:29.170
Yeah, I guess I love that song.

00:56:29.170 --> 00:56:32.177
Oh, at least you have some good memories of it.

00:56:32.217 --> 00:56:33.768
Yeah, pink Floyd was great.

00:56:33.768 --> 00:56:36.411
I enjoyed all of their stuff.

00:56:36.411 --> 00:56:37.407
A lot of theirs.

00:56:37.407 --> 00:56:39.246
Not all, not all.

00:56:39.246 --> 00:56:40.070
Let me go back.

00:56:40.070 --> 00:56:43.365
I'm the old Pink Floyd.

00:56:46.065 --> 00:56:46.525
The newer stuff is okay.

00:56:46.525 --> 00:56:47.730
There wasn't much new, but I know what you mean.

00:56:47.789 --> 00:56:48.773
After, a certain time.

00:56:48.773 --> 00:56:49.916
There was a time.

00:56:55.286 --> 00:56:56.170
Yeah, good song.

00:56:56.170 --> 00:57:01.831
I love that song Kind of puts you in that state of mind, it does.

00:57:02.393 --> 00:57:02.612
Yeah.

00:57:02.612 --> 00:57:06.369
All right, yeah, that's a good song.

00:57:06.625 --> 00:57:15.994
My next one is we just talked about the band is Kiss yeah, rock and roll all night party every day.

00:57:17.708 --> 00:57:18.411
I remember that.

00:57:18.411 --> 00:57:27.280
Now I want to rock and roll until about nine and party at about noon.

00:57:30.465 --> 00:57:30.746
Yeah.

00:57:30.746 --> 00:57:32.512
So anyways, rock and roll all night.

00:57:32.512 --> 00:57:35.389
Party every day, another good song.

00:57:35.389 --> 00:57:38.251
Yeah, I know you were a big Kiss fan growing up.

00:57:38.251 --> 00:57:38.853
I was.

00:57:38.853 --> 00:57:41.532
I'm sure we both have memories from this.

00:57:41.532 --> 00:57:42.764
Oh yeah, I'm sure we both have memories from this.

00:57:42.764 --> 00:57:46.936
I mean, I think my first was Kiss Alive.

00:57:47.367 --> 00:57:58.773
Just seeing that album cover yeah, with all the blood and everything that was my first, then I went backwards and then Alive 2 well, that came up, but I went backwards now I had.

00:57:59.206 --> 00:57:59.628
What's this?

00:57:59.648 --> 00:58:00.331
Dressed to Kill.

00:58:00.331 --> 00:58:03.530
That was after, but you know, the first Kiss album Dressed to Kill.

00:58:03.550 --> 00:58:10.932
Oh, dressed to Kill, yeah, that was after, right, but you know the first Kiss album, then Dressed to Kill, but shit, we had Black Diamond on those older ones.

00:58:11.876 --> 00:58:12.918
Black Diamond.

00:58:13.025 --> 00:58:16.726
Kiss Strutter, but that was before but yeah.

00:58:16.726 --> 00:58:17.045
Kiss.

00:58:17.045 --> 00:58:22.277
I didn't get into them until basically, not this album but Kiss Alive.

00:58:22.277 --> 00:58:24.030
So that's my first Right.

00:58:24.030 --> 00:58:27.552
The next year, obviously probably 76 that we'll be talking about.

00:58:27.753 --> 00:58:36.014
Right, exactly, that's when I first heard this song Rock and roll all night 77 is probably when I kicked into Kiss real hard.

00:58:36.014 --> 00:58:40.195
But yeah, I can understand why you guys hit it early.

00:58:41.393 --> 00:58:45.534
They had some great stuff, like I said, friends in school were like oh, this is where it's at and.

00:58:45.574 --> 00:58:46.295
I was like oh yeah.

00:58:47.786 --> 00:58:49.349
Kiss was kick-ass back then.

00:58:49.349 --> 00:58:51.356
Yeah, yeah, what about you?

00:58:51.356 --> 00:58:52.871
Any more for you, or was that it?

00:58:52.871 --> 00:58:54.416
No, I got one more.

00:58:54.538 --> 00:58:55.244
You got one more.

00:58:55.244 --> 00:59:00.157
They say he is the gentle giant.

00:59:00.157 --> 00:59:01.507
Who would that be?

00:59:01.507 --> 00:59:10.483
Tom Don Williams Came out with a huge song that means quite a bit to me.

00:59:10.483 --> 00:59:11.405
What's the name it's called?

00:59:11.405 --> 00:59:20.193
You're my Best Friend and I had a best friend that died in a car accident about the same time this song came out.

00:59:20.193 --> 00:59:21.052
Tom, why are all?

00:59:21.072 --> 00:59:24.132
your songs kind of sad I don't know, but they just you know.

00:59:24.132 --> 00:59:25.315
That's what music does.

00:59:25.315 --> 00:59:37.293
It brings back memories and this is a good memory to me because I mean, we listened to this a lot, a lot, and he was my best friend.

00:59:37.293 --> 00:59:39.891
That sucks, but no, I mean, he no.

00:59:39.891 --> 00:59:40.532
But how old?

00:59:40.532 --> 00:59:45.550
Oh well, he was already grown, he was a police officer.

00:59:45.791 --> 00:59:46.052
Okay.

00:59:46.425 --> 00:59:54.387
And he died trying to save some kids from drowning, and that's just the way it was, I mean.

00:59:54.387 --> 01:00:11.539
But he was just an amazing guy, went to school with him and knew him growing up and this song really captivates what he was to me and Don Williams, one of the best country singers in the world other than Merle Haggard.

01:00:11.704 --> 01:00:14.233
I have to admit, I've never heard of him either, Tom.

01:00:14.465 --> 01:00:23.014
You've never heard of Don Williams, nope, nah, well, and that's the genre you grow up with and fortunately I had all that background.

01:00:23.304 --> 01:00:24.432
My parents probably played.

01:00:24.432 --> 01:00:28.355
It just didn't catch with me, right, because I heard more Waylon Jennings.

01:00:28.355 --> 01:00:30.909
Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, you know Merle Haggard.

01:00:30.971 --> 01:00:34.125
Right which he is in there for Craig.

01:00:35.186 --> 01:00:38.514
So I probably just heard it and just assumed it was one of them.

01:00:38.735 --> 01:00:39.516
Right, right.

01:00:39.516 --> 01:00:45.317
So yeah, but this is one of the better songs in my time.

01:00:45.724 --> 01:00:47.731
Oh, it sounds like a very nice song.

01:00:48.373 --> 01:00:48.614
Yeah.

01:00:49.445 --> 01:00:51.273
See, they don't write songs like this anymore.

01:00:51.273 --> 01:00:51.753
No, they don't.

01:00:52.425 --> 01:00:56.440
Well, it's about sexual and it's all about sex.

01:00:56.460 --> 01:00:57.081
Well, it doesn't matter.

01:00:57.081 --> 01:01:00.253
The songs themselves are different now.

01:01:00.664 --> 01:01:05.032
Everything is cookie cutter yeah yeah, it's just like the same thing.

01:01:05.032 --> 01:01:07.077
Or you get country, oh, no it's pop country.

01:01:07.668 --> 01:01:08.945
No, it's rap country.

01:01:10.228 --> 01:01:15.201
Or bluegrass rap yeah bluegrass, yeah the bluegrass rap.

01:01:15.221 --> 01:01:15.644
Get back to that.

01:01:15.864 --> 01:01:17.250
Yeah, what comes then?

01:01:17.250 --> 01:01:17.610
Yeah.

01:01:18.112 --> 01:01:18.934
Bluegrass rap.

01:01:19.664 --> 01:01:21.773
But yeah, those were my songs this week.

01:01:22.987 --> 01:01:23.509
I got one.

01:01:23.509 --> 01:01:25.795
I'm not going to go deep into it, yeah what's up?

01:01:27.346 --> 01:01:28.489
Led Zeppelin's Cashmere.

01:01:28.489 --> 01:01:29.994
Oh yeah, all right.

01:01:29.994 --> 01:01:35.251
So when that came out I was totally impressed, because the first time I heard it I was listening to the Beatles.

01:01:35.251 --> 01:01:38.286
I Am the Walrus, okay, and that's a freaky song in itself.

01:01:38.286 --> 01:01:39.867
Cuckoo, cuckoo, chew, exactly.

01:01:39.867 --> 01:01:45.092
So just to throw it out there, remember the, you know, it pans out, the song fades out.

01:01:45.092 --> 01:01:47.032
All of a sudden there's this transition.

01:01:47.032 --> 01:01:48.213
I go well, what's this?

01:01:48.213 --> 01:01:51.617
Well, it transitioned right into Cashmere, first time I ever heard it.

01:01:51.617 --> 01:01:54.139
And of course, back then, suck, you got a radio.

01:01:54.139 --> 01:01:55.619
You can't see who it is.

01:01:55.619 --> 01:02:02.226
You know, I had to figure it out after a while, I think maybe at the end of the song.

01:02:02.246 --> 01:02:03.309
The guy probably said it, so I do Right, right right.

01:02:03.329 --> 01:02:06.297
I just remember getting blown away by like, oh, that fit right into it.

01:02:06.297 --> 01:02:08.773
Here I am thinking is that a Beatles continuation?

01:02:08.773 --> 01:02:12.532
Nope, different singer Sounds like the guy from Led Zeppelin.

01:02:12.532 --> 01:02:13.173
Sure as shit.

01:02:13.173 --> 01:02:13.675
That's what it was.

01:02:14.025 --> 01:02:16.789
But I just wanted to add that in I believe that was off.

01:02:16.849 --> 01:02:17.733
Physical graffiti.

01:02:19.005 --> 01:02:23.711
But anyway, well, you know how you said it sounded weird and you know it was kind of scary.

01:02:23.711 --> 01:02:28.940
I remember listening to Tusk by Fleetwood Mac for the very first time.

01:02:28.940 --> 01:02:39.840
All I could see was a bunch of witches dancing around casting spells on me.

01:02:39.840 --> 01:02:43.235
I think I'm like ah turn it off, turn it off.

01:02:43.235 --> 01:02:46.751
So yeah, that was weird, that was weird.

01:02:47.072 --> 01:02:47.994
But that's our.

01:02:47.994 --> 01:02:52.210
That pretty much ends our musical journey, I think.

01:02:52.565 --> 01:02:54.083
Yeah, we had a journey today, 75.

01:02:54.083 --> 01:02:55.210
Yeah, 75.

01:02:55.309 --> 01:03:01.733
Great year Next year, I mean next year, next week or no, doing it by week, I keep forgetting.

01:03:01.733 --> 01:03:03.827
We'll be talking about 76.

01:03:03.827 --> 01:03:05.869
76 is the next one.

01:03:05.869 --> 01:03:12.795
Now we're starting to get into not that I don't like the music we've talked about, there are some good memories but 76, now for me.

01:03:12.795 --> 01:03:16.260
I'm going to be at that age, I'll be 15.

01:03:16.260 --> 01:03:17.260
I mean 14.

01:03:17.260 --> 01:03:23.432
Yeah, so getting up to my age, where I'm in junior high, we're all going to wear a condom and everything.

01:03:24.094 --> 01:03:25.817
Make sure we're good Condoms.

01:03:25.817 --> 01:03:29.389
Well, you're 15.

01:03:30.211 --> 01:03:31.315
I'll be 14.

01:03:31.315 --> 01:03:36.128
We don't want anything on us, Anyway.

01:03:36.128 --> 01:03:37.052
Any last words.

01:03:39.065 --> 01:03:43.085
Man, I am so psyched about this music stuff.

01:03:43.106 --> 01:03:44.228
Before we give up.

01:03:44.228 --> 01:03:54.586
Of course, folks listen to us on Spotify, iheartradio, amazon Music, deezer FM, deepcast FM, geez.

01:03:54.586 --> 01:03:58.918

01:04:06.371 --> 01:04:06.512
The MT.

01:04:06.532 --> 01:04:07.483
Alternative Podcast.

01:04:07.483 --> 01:04:08.570
You'll find us.

01:04:08.570 --> 01:04:13.951
We have a new logo coming out, oh yeah.

01:04:14.045 --> 01:04:24.612
We have a new logo coming out and we finally, finally got the little guys To come in for a video shoot.

01:04:24.612 --> 01:04:27.351
And there we go, we have a picture of Pip and Squeak.

01:04:27.351 --> 01:04:30.534
Yes, so be sure We'll be displaying that.

01:04:30.534 --> 01:04:38.597
Check that out, yeah, but in the meantime, we always want to thank God for the gift of Gab.

01:04:38.846 --> 01:04:40.815
Everyone, we appreciate you listening.

01:04:40.815 --> 01:04:41.418
Take care, god bless Later.

01:04:41.418 --> 01:04:42.181
Everyone, we appreciate you listening.

01:04:42.181 --> 01:04:43.505
Take care, god bless Later.

01:04:49.605 --> 01:04:55.838
Well, folks, that's all the time we've got for today on the MT Alternative, the only podcast where tangents are mandatory and facts are loosely interpreted.

01:04:55.838 --> 01:05:00.657
Next week, mike and Tom will be diving into the year 1976.

01:05:00.657 --> 01:05:24.463
Yes, the year after Disco should have died, but before they figured out how to use hair product responsibly, thank you, and squeak will also be back, because apparently someone found the cage door open again.

01:05:24.463 --> 01:05:34.248
So prepare your ears for more squawking, squeaking and unsolicited opinions from creatures who barely have a grasp on human logic.

01:05:34.248 --> 01:05:40.068
Until then, I've been, daniel, your reluctant guide through this audio obstacle course.

01:05:40.068 --> 01:05:47.590
Stay curious, stay cynical and please, whatever you do, don't let Mike and Tom sing on air again.

01:05:47.590 --> 01:05:50.293
We only just paid off the last lawsuit.

01:05:50.293 --> 01:05:54.204
Good night or good luck, honestly, whichever applies.

01:05:54.204 --> 01:06:16.413
We'll see you next time you.
