Spazbot - Emergency (1986)

Neal Fadlin of Spazbot was a fellow artist I met through the Dallas Artist Co-op in 1983. They did occasional performances at the Twilight Room, and the only recording I am aware of is this track Emergency from the Made Up in Texas compilation from 1986. Whoever ripped it from vinyl did a lousy job, so it is what it is. 

Pictured are Gentleman John and Neal Fadlin of Spazbot, circa early-mid 1980s

Soon after Pampered Menial had been released in 1974 — I had heard several songs on FM radio and absolutely loved it — I was home ill from school and was laying on the couch watching TV when my mother came to tell me she was going out to run some errands and asked if I needed anything. Jokingly, I said "I need the new album by Pavlov's Dog, Pampered Menial." To my utter shock when my mother returned home she had bought me the album!!!! That was one of the coolest thing my mother ever did!!!

The following year on 3 May 1975 Kraftwerk came to Tulsa and Pavlov's Dog was the warm up band. I was doing video at school — back in the day when it was black and white reel-to-reel video — and arranged to do a video interview with David Surkamp before the show. David and the entire band were absolute sweethearts to me and even though I was only a junior in high school they gave me the respect of a professional journalist. They were also kind enough to all autograph my Pampered Menial album cover. (Kraftwerk signed my Autobahn cover, too!)



When I made arrangements to do the interview I was informed I would not be allowed to shoot any footage of either band performing, but sitting in the front row, I snuck and shot some video anyway. Sadly, that video is long lost.

Pampered Menial has remained a favorite album of mine throughout my life and it is, in my opinion, one of the greatest rock albums of all time and holds the distinction of being my favorite album of the 70s.

Patrick Williams - Threshold (1973)

Patrick Williams - Threshold (1973)

When I went to see Frank Zappa at the Civic Center Music Hall in Oklahoma City on 8 October 1975, there was incredible music playing before the show, so I walked over to the soundboard and asked what was playing and it was "Threshold" by Patrick Williams. I went out and bought the album as soon as I could!!!

Jimmie Spheeris - The Dragon Is Dancing (SIYS Extended Edit) (1975-2010)

Featuring Chick Corea on electric piano & mini moog.

Believe it or not, this gem of a song had never been uploaded to the Internet, so I posted it to Youtube. This is an extended edit that keeps intact the nice harp ending that segues into the beginning of the next track Sighs In A Shell.

ENJOY!

Morpheus - That's Evil Man (Take A Trip) (Freakout Overture / Club Mix) (1992)

I own this vinyl EP, but no longer have a working turntable, so I searched for years to find this song online with no luck. Finally, I found a rare copy of the promo CD on eBay and now finally this can be heard online.

I selected what I believe is the best version, the "Freakout Overture / Club Mix" to share here.

ENJOY!
