It was me, myself and I doing all of the tracks although I did get some drumming help from Roland. Harmonica Monica was recorded at the Vagabond Motel in San Diego, the rest was recorded in my trailer. Thank goodness I now have a little studio.
Influences
Of course everybody and his grandmother want to claim Beefhart, Zappa and the great Tom Waits. But I'm a little Weird Al (cringe), Tom Jones (!), The Shaggs... gotta love The Shaggs, love John Prine's lyrics. Johnny Dowd does very intense dark stuff johnnydowd.com check him out now but please come back.
Be warned that some of these songs are really not for kids. So if you don't want to hear dirty words like "vagina" and "wet" I recommend that you proceed with caution. Other songs will challenge your mind, making you conjure up profound insights such as, "Is this music?.
Sounds Like
Captain Zappa, Abbacore, Tom Beefheart, Tiny Tim, Frank Waits and that homeless guy you saw recently who was talking to himself
Love, Sex & Other Messy Things is a mess of sendups, parodies and some originals. This CD is too far from the mainstream for most people. For some people, some tracks are way too annoying. For others, these same tracks are their favorites. However, I think everyone will like at least one track.------------------------------------I Heart My Dog is not on the CD but is a free download--------------------------
Therefore......... I recommend you direct your browser to your favorite download store or get it here.
I'm on i-Tunes, Windows Media, Musicmatch, Musicnet, mp3,com, Yahoo, Rhapsody and probably others.-----------------------------------

Ever wondered what to do in the event of a nuclear threat?
A while ago I found stuff that inspired me to make this film:
Living Under the Shadow of the Nuclear Umbrella
Both artistic (ensure you get the background music!) and educational, it primarily comprises official British government civil defence advice.
Though source materials are quite aged, much remains relevant today.

Hey Richard! Just stoppin' by to drop off some BurroSpam from Road Apple Records.... My old friend King Gully was the first Rasta surfer on the wild North Shore of Barbados. This song is based on his true story. It's been described as a cross between "I Shot The Sheriff" and "Puff The Magic Dragon". :>) And there's ukulele under all those dang gitarz! I think you'll like it, as well as the shots of great surfing and amazing waves, all from Barbados! Cheers, Rick Novak. Enjoy....
Hiya Buckyroos! Thought you might enjoy seeing Bucky Burro kick some Republican piggie butt! :>) Hopefully the country will do the same next week!
