other free mp3s<\/a> offered by Slim Cessna’s Auto Club.\u00a0 Just type “Cessna” into that thar search box.\u00a0 As I mentioned in an earlier post, I am certainly not the Master of Search Boxes, so you may find your way about this easier than I did.\u00a0 I found it right away, but that’s a secondary concern when I’m making jokes about my mental ability.<\/p>\nOnce you download all those great, great tunes, you can burn em onto an old-fashioned Compact Disc, just like Gramma used to make!\u00a0 They will fit nicely on one disc.\u00a0 You can also put them on your newfangled iPod, or, heaven help, one of them slick new “iPads”.<\/p>\n
Speaking of unjustified hype, have you seen the iPad?\u00a0 I don’t want one, and that’s saying a lot.\u00a0 I want every new techno gizmo, so to not want something like the iPad means it appeals to me in negative values.<\/p>\n
-1!<\/p>\n
So, if you’re listening to Jackson, you must know that this is the “heaviest” song the band has ever done.\u00a0 Then again, I haven’t heard their new album, which I just found out about when I loaded the mp3 page.\u00a0 Holy hootenannies, I need to get that album.\u00a0 All of this band’s music is fucking great.\u00a0 It will make you dress only in denim overalls, drink moonshine and chew a wheatstalk between your teeth while you drunkenly teach yourself to whittle.<\/p>\n
The band’s talent and ability transcend even my own strong hatred for country music!\u00a0 Yay!<\/p>\n
And “Jackson” is a happy song!\u00a0 Yay!<\/p>\n
Sorry, I was momentarily confused.\u00a0 “Jackson” is NOT a happy song.\u00a0 The band has happy songs too.\u00a0 Disturbing songs, funny songs, weird songs, lonesome songs and yippie-kai-yay songs.<\/p>\n
Is that how you spell yippie-kai-yay?\u00a0 Oddly enough, I never seem to have opportunities to use that word in my prose.<\/p>\n
Steamrolling right along…..<\/p>\n
Alternative Tentacles is the record label started by Mr. Jello Biafra.\u00a0 If you know who THAT is, you’re saying “Alright!\u00a0 JELLO!!!”<\/p>\n
If you don’t know who that is, Google him.<\/p>\n
Or sit right back and I’ll tell a tale
\nA tale of a Punk-Rock band
\nFrom San Fransisco area
\nThat cops couldn’t stand
\nThat cops couldn’t stand<\/p>\n
The band had Jello Biafra
\nWho sings in warbling tones
\nUnique as any snowflake he
\nWith no real clones
\nWith no real clones<\/p>\n
The band recorded albums great
\nAnd singles fine to boot,
\nWith “Frankenchrist”
\nDead Kennedys
\nGot infamous
\nFor a while
\nBut they broke up
\nAnd Jello’s been solo since<\/p>\n
Here on Gilligan’s Isle!<\/p>\n
Some say I have a talent for this idiotic poetry I do.\u00a0 Meh.\u00a0 That doesn’t take talent… just a bit too much fucking time on my hands.<\/p>\n
So Jello started Alternative Tentacles, and they sell records.\u00a0 In CD form.\u00a0 I don’t know if they sell downloads.\u00a0 I could look very easily.\u00a0 My browser is open on the site right now.\u00a0 That window is JUST under this one.\u00a0 Meh<\/p>\n
Fuck, I’m lazy.<\/p>\n
So listen to Slim Cessna’s Auto Club was the point I’m trying to get across.\u00a0 Even if you don’t like Country Music, you will LOVE this music if you let it get under your skin.<\/p>\n
And hey, why not check out some of the other stuff on the Alternative Tentacles mp3 page?\u00a0 Freely downloadable and sharable.\u00a0 See what happens when people remove greed from the equation?\u00a0 Everybody wins!\u00a0 Yay!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
