It's been at least 8 years since I've been able to say this. Have you checked out the new Dave Matthews album? Fuckin' should. It's summer, for Christ's sakes. Big Whiskey and the GrooGrux King. I don't know what it means. What I do know is that the album pulls on the same strings that the old Under the Table, Crash and Streets albums did in the wayback days of yore. Back when Birks came close to trendy and I carried a Discman around, carefully (mind the skips). It starts off fun, with an instrumental intro strait to "Shake Me Like A Monkey." It's jazzy, it's funky, it's Band-y. And then there's the single. Here, I found this fun video on YouTube. Great music plus Looney Tunes imagery. Worked before. Let it work here.
I'm going to the concert this summer. First time in maybe a decade. It should be epic. More comments to come.
By the by, I think it's cool that I've seen most if not all of the Looney Tunes episodes featured in the video above. Just sayin'.
