The Chris Isaak Show. Unfortunately, all that great music will be damn near impossible to clear for any kind of release.

I was hoping to find some Ambush Bug love in here.
Anyone see the last Kids In The Hall tour? There was a running gag of a drunk (Dave Foley) who had invented a time machine, but only ever used it so he could miss last call.
I really, really dislike the Colin Baker era…for me, the only one that's watchable is Revelation, which is indeed very good. The rest is mediocre to horrible. And for the way Attack of the Cybermen has the Doctor praising a paid-for-hire killer just because he took his blood money from putative good guys is for me,…
Ouch…well, personally I'd recommend staying away from Seeds Of Death, but that's just me.
Good spot, Neophyte…he played his guitar tuned to an open F chord. A very unusual tuning to be sure, and as the man used to say, he loved that no one could pick up his axe and play like he did!
I hear a lot of Mayfield in Robbie Robertson's guitar style, that's for sure. "Tears Of Rage" could have been Curtis on guitar, for sure.
Mayfield's body of work with The Impressions alone is staggering. "Keep On Pushing" and "Its All Right" never fail to lift the spirit. Damn.
Sometimes I dismiss his movie music, but I should just give my head a shake. "When She Loved Me" is such a pretty and deceptively simple tune, but emotionally it's like having a bomb dropped on you. Damn you and your emotional bombs, Newman!
"Rednecks" is the balliest song anyone has ever written. This is fact.
Let me join in on the love for Mock Tudor and Sweet Warrior. The former, especially, is amongst the best he's ever put out, and while there's a couple of flat spots on Sweet Warrior it's still a superb, superb album. The closing one-two punch of "Guns Are The Tongues" and "Sunset Song" is vicious.
Tom Cruise Dude…beat me to it. Glen Campbell has got talent in spades - as a guitar player, as a singer, as an interpreter.
Preach, that. Fleetwood Mac is superior pop.
No one's calling Keith out on the stealth firsty? May your future be shaped by creepy monsters in natty suits.
Is King Kong Bundy available?
Oh the media monkeys with their junket junkies will invite you to the plastic pantomime…throw their invites away!
These are just crushing. Peanuts had enough melancholy as it was.
Soul Train was THE bomb when I was a kid. I remember thinking vocal groups in non-crease fibre suits dancing in unison while harmonizing to the nth degree was the coolest thing I ever saw. My love for soul, funk and R&B started here. The hippest trip in America…a journey across the tracks of your mind!
@Yeah Avatar…I'm of two minds on Hee Haw. While the show is terrible, it did introduce a young me to the Bakersfield sound and a lot of terrific country music. But you're right in that Owens and Clark, two brilliant musicians, ended up undercut by the whole affair.
There's nothing better than a dog or cat to keep you warm on a cold night. Seriously…they burn for hours.
