In with a family friendly ditty.

The Whistler - Paco del Stinko Yeah he could whistle From his butt And if you listen I'll tell you what He could pucker And he could blow If you were lucky You saw the show You never heard a more gorgeous tune (A gorgeous tune) Than when he whistled - Under the moon The crowds he captured From all ...

I reckon JB already has his whistle wetted. Wait. Did that come out right?

There are a few things missing from that sangwich photo: a handful of chips, a beverage that may or may not contain alcohol, and my dumb mug getting ready to chow it down. And napkins. Looks awesome! I get Hatch chiles shipped here every year and one thing I use them for is a traditional New Mexican...

Congrats to Gil and the Yaks!

Super quick comments. Some good stuff here, not all the same type of song, by any means. Berkeley Social Scene - Nice mood shifts from this era spanning prom tune. Hints of Floyd as well, different production sounds very nice, raw sounds a treat. A bit more Costello in the vocals would throw it over...

R.I.P. Olivia Newton John. Lots of good songs, performances. Fucking cancer, man.

Quick comments. Some strong stuff this fight, nice. Surprises, too. a.flaim - This has good intentions and would be more fun with everything working properly, vocals especially. Excellent intro had me thinking sci-fi for a bit, then it got all popped out. I like where your voice will be someday, mis...

You Never Know - Paco del Stinko Aerials and distant memories Fog creeping out from under the leaves Overdeveloped in diminishing areas Sometimes you just don't wake up from the dream You can't go back - You just can't go But you tell yourself you never know You never know Understanding a long-gone...

Quick comments before work. (Ugh) Decent enough fight with nothing really stellar. Gil comes closest, to me. a.flaim - Great energy, modern "punk" I guess you call it. The vocal timbre is likable, but the pitch is way off. Lyrics are empowering/motivating. But yeah, and coming from me, wor...

Face Down - Paco del Stinko Some people bite a pillow when they're on their belly Just like an ironing board or so they tell me If that's where you find yourself It's just like a show and tell (You can be face down) You know it's every single night (You can be face down) C'mon baby it's alright (Yo...

I’d have preferred the guitar a little cleaner/sharper so it’s not fighting so much with the clavichord. When I was recording tracks and mixing, I said "Oh. listen how they kind of blend together. Neat!" I totally hear what you're saying, though, and agree that that would clear things up ...

Quick comments. There was nothing here that I disliked although many could use some polishing. Coughy Cake! Andy Balham - Scratchpad and first time through feel with moments of what it could be-ness. The lyrics and progressions are good, if not necessarily meant to be together. Needs a lot of screws...

The First Million Is The Hardest - Paco del Stinko It's not easy when you got nothing Ain't got two nickels for the rubbing Scratching and a scraping to get by my oh ny Only got crumbs from the pie The first million is the hardest The first mile is the farthest The first cheese is the sharpest The ...

In with a super quickie, totally forgot about the challenge. Oops!

Thank you very much, kind sir!

Fluffy: Thanks for the review. Comments to come later.

True that, LT. But wait until the day I cover one of your tunes in an 80s new wave style. Uh-huh. See what people think then.

So, I just sent one in, hoping for the Fightmasters mercy. Hey, it's a short one anyway!

Disco del Stinko left in the oven. Boo!

EDIT: I took it out of the oven and mailed it in, warm, fresh (sorta) and stinky. Understood if it doesn't get posted.

Congrats, PCA! You're on a roll, man.

And if anything, I probably picked up miscast Lichen votes. Sorry, LT!

I am a deadline nut. But I may take advantage of this to finish something up.

Very quick impressions. Clear winner I think this week or should be. Fight was neither suck-fest, nor greatest ever. Brown Word and the Big Whine - There are whiffs of both Sabbath and porn tunage here, I can dig it. Sludgy but still rollin'. Melody could break away from following the chords so much...
