Gentlepersons--
I'm still up putting together the Homosexuals 3CD "Astral Glamour".
Not precisely Audities material, but it's certainly full of hooks.
Call it as pop (and as non-pop) as Outkast?
Anyway, there are two songs I'm having to leave off because they're
someone else's. The first one's easy (a psychedelic re-write of
Malvina Reynolds' "Freight Train, Freight Train"), but the one that's
got me stumped is a "song" that's recorded over a backmasked (and
heavily distorted) Monkees-style 60s countrypop-tune (parody?) with
lyrics that begin "Last night I dreamt a presidential candidateŠ" and
a chorus that ends, "Now there's nothing left between us / not the
sun, not the moon, and the starsŠ" Sounds a lot like the Monkees,
but it could certainly be a number of other bands having a little fun
with that same style.
Help?
Many thanks,
Chuck Warner
