I want it tonight
HASIL ADKINS "No More Hot Dogs"
Not the most original choice of song to post I know, but there still might be a few folks out there who've not encountered the authentically out-there thrills of rocka-hill-billy Haze, the true wild man of rock and roll, in his prime. The one man band was found dead in his Madison, WI home yesterday at the age of 67. I never saw Hasil Adkins live but thanks to the great Norton and a host of European labels, he had a resurrected career starting in the mid '80s, and did start touring for the first time in decades.
I always thought the Detroit Cobras should cover this here song -- would be cool to hear a woman sing these words... Anyway, yeah, ummm, it's not exactly a feminist anthem. More here at the 'FMU blog.
