Hello Eso!

hi, bri! hi, tom! welcome!

back atcha!

thx mch!

Fiddles mando and banjo... very nice

oh yeah...glad you like the selections

ZZ ! thank you

awesome! happy to! i love zztop

ZZ Top was one of the first large scale concerts I ever went to

amazing

such a great live band

I bet. Just great blues. So tight, too

Interesting switch-ups with their songs

I won tickets to see then in 99. Skynyrd opened on a double bill. But it was Top's show. Dusty & Billy had gtrs with knives stabbed into them. A little person was a stage hand/emcee. Maybe more than one of them... and they had the plush guitars for a couple numbers

Little ol ' Band from Tejas

I LOVE this song

great memories, bri and tom!

this is my fave summer song, well one of them!

O ya. That wooo - oooo sound. This is a great moment

yeah

A Billy vocal but really the bottom end on this one wow... Dusty holding down such a groove

righteous!

Love the way this just breaks down... sounds like fun in the studio

The hip-swivel attachments for the guitars... heh. They'd spin them around. Love it

Have mercy... been waitin' for the bus all day....

★🖤 DAVID BOWIE 🖤★

Pity Party was mentioned between sets. They’re different from Puddles Pity Party, right? At a Mikey Erg/Basic B-tches show in New Brunswick two Sundays ago, a merch table with a sign reading “FREE” included a Pity Party CD. I didn’t take advantage though.

you mean michael geier twisted clown? yes different from pity party, I believe, david

Wax Chattels article: https://daily.bandcamp.com/features/wax-chattels-clot-interview

I like all these vibes you’ve shared with us today, DJ Esoterica! Thanks!

thx, mr. m!

Chris does Neil!

yes!

Chris F shows in philly & brooklyn next week just announced!

so cool, andrew! thx for letting us kow

Sir Cliff Richard never became famous over here, but “Summer Holiday” and its predecessor “The Young Ones” were colossal box office hits in the UK.

oh yes, david

Working outside today and esoterica summons the rainmaker! 🌩⚡️ Great tune bad timing 🔥🎶

haha hi jerry!

Oh yeah

Me and the neighbors have you locked in today E

so glad! we are rockin' now!

Don’t make my SelectaJerry blue!

i won't;)

🙏🏼💙

The “Arthur” album was intended to be the soundtrack to a TV drama special that never got off the ground. Half a century later, it finally got made into a radio drama which was archived for a short time on the BBC website. I listened to it just before it was removed.

🖤💀

wow, interesting, david!

Ok back to my pile of mulch. Keep rocking sonic bloomers

Cheers, DJ SelectaJerry!

ok! great! big thanks to you for visiting the sonic bloom, selecta jerry!

It’s too bad the concept album “Arthur” didn’t get its due acclaim in 1969. It was better than that other rock opera with a man’s name that some other English group released that year.

haha i like tommy!

Ha!

WAU WAU COLLECTIF‼️ So nice!!

thhanks, glad you like

Very Rushmore soundtrack kinda vibe today. Definitely on this one
