Vinyl does sound better even when it’s an mp3 file made from a 45 from 1967 and especially when the song is by The Creation.
In my reading the newest release from MX-80’s Bruce Anderson and Rich Stim, the heroic “Bar Stool Walker” nods a few times to Rochester’s Margaret Explosion. The music is lyric free, there are songs called “Happy Hour“, a video shot on the Golden Gate Bridge and “Tall Boy” and they have a clumsy drummer.
Bar Stool Walker is a multilayered project and I can’t say for sure that this is the case but we haven’t found any sax in there yet. Rich Stim taught Peggi to play sax. Her first song was “Hava Nagila.”
Rich Stim wrote a popular Personal Effects song, “So Hard.”
Many of the songs on Bar Stool Walker are already fully realized videos but it looks like we will have to wait a bit for the luscious Beach Boy cover “The Warmth of the Sun.”

Rich wrote So Hard? Why didn’t I know that? I must be losing it. ME sounded great last night, btw.
wow, thanks for the linkee-dinkees. We’ll get to work on that WOTS video.
