   About Jazz Monkey & The X-Ray Dogs

So just who are Jazz Monkey & The X-Ray Dogs?

Jazz Monkey - Drummer
This extra terrestrial primate- being came to earth to form a band and take over the planet, through music, celebrity status and highly advanced subliminal messages layered in all X-Ray Dogs material. He was taught to play the drums by Keith Moon and is a keen golfer and television addict

Rico Hondulez - Bass Player
Rico is a Voodoo Master and Gary Glitter look alike. Unfortunately, he hasn't had much work recently, and is therefore concentrating his efforts on the band. He grew up in Las Vegas and has spent much of his life living in the back of a 1974 Cadillac Hearse which incidentally was once owned by Burt Reynolds.

Kitty Blackwood - Guitarist and Vocalist
Originally a blow up doll brought to life by Voodoo, Kitty is Rico's girlfriend and confidante. She is classically trained and plays several instruments including the bagpipes, the pipes of peace and the pipes of pan. Her voice is so beautiful that some of her recordings can only be heard by dogs.

Supershine 009 (a.k.a DJ Tin Can) - Noises & Vocals
A robot from the former Soviet State of Czechoslovakia, built in Prague in the mid 1950's, he is Jazz Monkey's trusted sidekick and translator. He was recruited for his planning skills, ability to do earth sums and his outstanding musical aptitude. Some say that he is the real brains behind The X-ray Dogs

MiniElvis-- - Manager
The real actual live Elvis, but miniaturized to about 30 inches; it is a long yet untold tale, but suffice to say that Jazz Monkey has visited earth several times before, and on one of those visits in the summer of 1977 he was in the vicinity of a toilet in Graceland, Memphis Tennessee.

So that's the band . . .

But how did they meet I hear you ask, well.........

The band formed many years ago in San Francisco after Jazz Monkey's spaceship crashed into Rico and Kitty's squat. It was here that they were first introduced to Jazz Monkey's crew, a robot named Supershine and MiniElvis-- . Jazz Monkey quickly began endorsing his megalomaniac, music based, world domination plans to the eager, assembled group. A recording session in Las Vegas swiftly followed, resulting in the band's highly acclaimed debut album, 'Mornington Crescent', available here for the very first time in 'Supershiny Stereo Surround Sound'. The band are currently rehearsing for their 'Conquest of Earth' world tour in a secret underground bunker below old London town.

PLEASE REMEMBER TO HELP SPREAD THE WORD OF
JAZZ MONKEY & THE X-RAY DOGS BY TELLING ALL YOUR FRIENDS

OUR CONQUEST OF PLANET EARTH BEGINS HERE!

Where did the outrage go?? Why have they been forgotten?

And where did the money go??

It's time to ask questions and help spread the word to MAKE IT RIGHT!

Please come visit my blog and please share it with your friends. Let's not forget those still waiting for help.

Thanks ~Maureen
