TIMBUK 3 LIVE!–A blast from the past!

Posted on October 22nd, 2009 by ekko

Once upon a time I went to see Bob Dylan.  And some band opening up for him had a hit song about wearing shades in the future, but I didn’t really know the song from Cory Hart, who wore them at night.  Well, Bob wasn’t all that good.  But his opening band was tremendous.  I became a big T3 fan for a few years after that.  They were a band that was vastly underrated, judged on the merit of one hit song and a couple minor hits rather than on the wit of their lyrics and the quality of their music.  If you don’t have Greetings from Timbuk 3 and Eden Alley, I suggest you go buy ‘em.  Would I steer you wrong?

This boot isn’t stellar quality, but it’s good enough for your listening pleasure.  Hope you dig it.

  • WHAT THE HELL IS INDIE MUSIC? An independent record label (or indie record label) is a record label operating without the funding of or outside the organizations of the major record labels. - Wikipedia.org That means they ain't in the RIAA, dude.

    HOW CAN I GET IN ON THIS?

    • Email me
      for the specifics but, basically:
    • I listen to all submissions of entire albums, not songs or compilations.
    • With rare exceptions I will not review material protected by the RIAA. So Sony, BMG, etc., don't start sending me crap. I'm not interested.
    • I don't listen to streams.
    • I won't read online comic-books. I may read .pdfs. I will read all hardcopy submissions.
    • I will review only submissions that I can recommend. I'm not here to do negative reviews.
    • Contact me to tell me to remove something. I'll take it down within 24 hours.
