I was interested enough to give this a listen, Cole's Law being one of my any where, any time, favourite tunes, but I had to stop. Not only because I have a low tolerance for idiots yelling awwwrriiigghtttt!!! in the quiet moments, but also because the extra cheese provided by Melvin Seals organ rendered the whole thing pretty indigestible. I have tried more than once to like the Crazy Engine but Seals just makes it impossible for me. Compare and contrast with Robert Walter on keys on this version:

Seals cant hold a candle to Walter - i love Walter's solo stuff too - a great listen.

Yeah, it's noticably better. Dire got me started with a few Kimock recommendations a while back, I think I need to spend a bit more time on him. Got any suggestions, Rob ?

Dire helped me out on my early explorations of Kimock too, so I've tried to avoid what I think he may have already suggested to you. Apologies to him and to you if I'm repeating what you already know:

Kimock plays Halloween (first show acoustic, second electric):

Just because I like them, a couple more October shows:

Thanks Rob. I've been listening to the 2006 show you linked yesterday, and the 1/10/05 here at work. They both sound great, so I'll d/l between now and the weekend and give them a proper listen then.

I was hearing Kimock or Greene are Sheep Herders. Mann, could imagine herding sheep to "Crazy Engine" or "Mexican Lady" ? You wouldn't have to worry about wool for your winter sweater. Just picture a Smoking Crater or yourself turning butter.

"DID ICE CREAM ?"
