Jazz Club
Some of these are hilarious. Great parody of “jazz dance” beginning at 12:40.

Catchy
This album had a few more good ones. Don’t know what became of these guys. Apparently they made this album, toured, then parted ways. Nothing like touring to turn people against each other.
Alice Cooper, Power Popper
You never hear Alice Cooper mentioned as a power pop pioneer, but this song from ’73 checks all the boxes. AC has said that they were copying Substitute by The Who, and you can certainly hear that in the guitar intro. More interesting (to me, anyway) is that the the beginning of the verses are very close to the verses of Let’s Spend the Night Together by the Rolling Stones. Creative theft at its best.

Quote Of The Day
“I want to set forth my Mathematical Theory of Line Dance Complexity versus Intelligence, which states: ‘The complexity of a given line dance is inversely proportional to the average IQ of the people doing it.'”

New episodes this Thanksgiving. Something to do on the most boring holiday of the year.
The Bishop
I love how he tries to rescue only priests. At the end is a good poke at the BBC, who in 70’s-80’s had a fetish for earnest, depressing documentaries. Maybe they still do, I haven’t been over there in a while.
