 Most readers have likely never heard of C.V. Jørgensen, Bifrost, Gasolin and Kim Larsen – but they and many others from the Danish music scene all contributed to my life of music in the early 70s. This one in particular – I have just played it at least 10 times as I have explored YouTube trying to find the right version to share … music has so many memories ….. the original just seems to me to have the edge over the later version …. enjoy.

Nice human article about the other live guitarist that hangs around the stage when The Tree play live. Reminded me of these photos from a few years ago – taken in Camden Town, London when he and SW played to around 200 people in a record store.

It was one David Wilt that introduced me to the term ‘Powerpop’. At that time – I associated the term with bands like The Wondermints, Fountain of Wayne – and more recently The Orange Peels. Until last night I had not given it much more thought – except that it is one of the genres that I store by in iTunes.
And then – what I have now calculated to be as near as damn it to 20 years to the day since we met – one Hugh Byrne and wonderful wife Nanette met for dinner. The things you discover … but we won’t go there now. Somehow we got onto Powerpop – and I discovered how wrong I have been for ten years. Hugh sent me this email this morning …..

Oh, granted a few of their contestants have achieved a little success, but where are the real show biz survivors (Jennifer Hudson excepted)? Here’s a clip from the greatest of all of these shows. I refer of course to The Gong Show and the first appearance of the Mystic Knights of the Oingo Boingo. The guy on trombone is Danny Elfman. Danny has four Academy Award nominations, an Emmy for creating the Desperate Housewives theme and wrote the theme for The Simpsons. He also was the voice of Jack Skellington in The Nightmare Before Xmas.” Let’s join Chuck Barris, Buddy Hackett, and other luminaries of the day as we set the Wayback Machine back to capture the spirit of ’76 :
Until about 20 minutes ago – I had never heard of these guys. Just played this version of the song for the fourth time – there is another version – with an animated cartoon that is a bit more ‘poppy’. One word. ‘Love It.’ Ok – TWO !
