Cap'n Jazz / 'Que Suerte'

I won't let a year go by without posting anything here. Anyway, this is my favorite new old thing right now.

Cap'n Jazz's record, Burritos, inspiration point, fork balloon sports, cards in the spokes, automatic biographies, kites, kung fu, trophies, banana peels we've slipped on and egg shells we've tippy toed over, which I'm proud to say I still own on vinyl and will never part with, made me feel alive like no other album. It was one of the classics of the nineties and without it -- for better or worse -- music on rock radio today would not sound the way it does.

So there's no MP3 (audio is so 2005), but I do have a live video, which I think is preferable anyway.



Expect me to do a lot more of this video stuff, as YouTube has proven an incredible indie archiving tool.
