A label dude took me to see him in Atlanta and I thought it was the shit. <BR/><BR/>He was a really nice breath of fresh air in 94-96 that was eventually expelled as an annoying gust of morning breath. <BR/><BR/>I will give props to his Jack Johnson "Rodeo Clowns" thingy, even though it was a couple of years down the line. I thought it was a'ight. <BR/><BR/>I heard that slowed down version of the Postal Service song too. It wasn't them???Whiffleboyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03268804139008461642noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13713772.post-1120678734626102862005-07-06T12:38:00.000-07:002005-07-06T12:38:00.000-07:00During my morning coffee and poopoo, I was reconsi...During my morning coffee and poopoo, I was reconsidering my stance on my G. Love rant from yesterday.<BR/><BR/>I thought: If somebody offered me xx millions of dollars to use my drawings to promote the Gap, would I do it? The answer would probably be "yes" because I am just north of dead broke here. <BR/><BR/>Would I sell out? Most likely, but the trick would be to do it in a way that maintained a certain level of artistic integrity. Other artists are doing it. Over the holiday weekend a was falling asleep in front of my parents' TV and I coulda swore I heard Iron & Wine singing a cover of a Postal Service song. Was it a car commercial? Was I dreaming? I remember it was cool, but that it didn't feature the artist in close-up singing the song. It wasn't a song hacked out specifically for the ad either.<BR/><BR/>Maybe I am being too harsh on G. Love though... I was feeling kinda grumpy yesterday. I certainly love the Malloys and all of their movies and have a soft spot for anything soulful in today's dingbat commercialized surfing world, including the Donovons and Jack Johnsons out there.<BR/><BR/>Surfsister, thanks for the post! Lessee here... G. Love and Special Sauce is a band from Philly that I absolutely loved when they came out 10 or so years ago. His blend of blues and stoney rhymes was a breath of fresh air when grunge became ho-hum and hip-hop too gangsta. Check out anything from their first album to sample the vibe that made them great and brought them to the attention of musical surfers like Johnson, who put out G. Love's last record on his Bushfire label.<BR/><BR/>-ChumChumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01398067594202867228noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13713772.post-1120656010835792552005-07-06T06:20:00.000-07:002005-07-06T06:20:00.000-07:00Okay, I have a confession: I have no idea who G-Lo...Okay, I have a confession: I have no idea who G-Love is. I haven't even seen this commercial since I have a 3 year old and usually have the TV on Nickelodeon.
