Jonesy is glad that his job is to be "the man who can, for two hours a day" and not have to work at a regular joe job. He's appreciative of being the "man who can", which is not the same as being "the man" he informs Shovel when Shovel says "You're the man."
Jonesy needs an assistant! He needs someone to follow him around and write down everything that pops into his head.
Shovel is not being very Ed McMahon today and not supportive of Jonesy's vision. Ah, there, Jonesy has Shovel all sorted now.
"It's going to happen!" Shovel affirms.
He's going to play a funny song, a German song. It's about "Seamen". Jonesy thinks it funny! It's from Lichtenstien in 1942.
Lolita, SAILOR, YOUR HOME IS THE SEA
Jonesy is very out of sorts, trying to get all of his CD's together, because on Friday's there is another show that runs right until noon. (If you go to the website there is a "pictures" page and the studio looks pretty tiny.) He wishes he had a list of all the things he always thinks to talk about, and then forgets in the hustle and bustle of preparing for the show.
Clip: "It's probably a misunderstanding due to language. Does Jones speak German, Frau Pineda?"
Rolling Stones, SALT OF THE EARTH
Ride the Blinds, TAKING BACK WHAT'S MINE
Humble Pie, C'MON EVERYBODY (an Eddie Cochran song)
The Who, SUMMERTIME BLUES (ditto)
Jonesy thinks that Eddie Cochran gets overlooked a lot. Cochran ends up on the B-list, and he was every bit as good as JL Lewis, and other fifties artists.
The Duke
Jonesy wonders about Los Angeles cabbies. Taxi drivers in New York "go round and round like it's BEN HUR," plowing through pot holes and so forth, but in Los Angeles they act like they have a permit to do anything! Shovel thinks taxi drivers are the same everywhere. Shovel doesn't like macho monster trucks.
Jonesy dedicates this song to all the loons out there driving cabs:
Curtis Mayfield, WE GOTTA HAVE PEACE (great song!)
Clip: "I'm walking here!" and lots of traffic noises-- this was from a movie-- TAXI DRIVER maybe?
Juicy Bananas, REPO MAN SOUNDTRACK, BAD MAN
Another clip but I missed it!
Stray Dog, CHEVROLET
"You just put your lips together and blow." He's whistling SWEET CAROLINE by Neil Diamond to give away tickets to Devo.
The Duke
He's playing the song with his own unique "man who can" and some other lyrics, that really, you just needed to hear yourself... "blokes touching other blokes feet"....Seriously, he's on something today... too much wheatgrass in the morning...He's really going insane, too bad you aren't listening, you'd be laughing...
Neil Diamond, SWEET CAROLINE
Humble Pie, HONKY TONK WOMAN
Heavy Metal Kids, HANGIN ON
Mr Big, ????
?-- I think I missed a song title
Clip: "Have you discovered what the earth people eat?" ...
Bowie, ALLADIN SANE
The Duke
Jonesy was hamming it up about something, but I missed what
Mick Ronson, THE GIRL CAN'T HELP IT
Flaming Groovies, TEENAGE HEAD
Queen, NOW I'M HERE
, UNDERPANTS
The Mick Ronson orignally recorded by Little Richard, in the movie by the same title. Jonesy says it is worth it to get it, because it has live band performances in the movie by Little Richard and Cochran, plus it has Jayne Mansfield!
Giving away 2 Playstation games . He's reading the description of the game and it sounds pretty good. ...
But he is making it difficult. You have to know who wrote the song.
It's the Monkees, I'M A BELIEVER
The Duke
Two winners from Long Beach. The songwriter is Neil Diamond.
Singing a Jonesy version of I'M A BELIEVER.
"Have a great weekend and enjoy yourself!"
Neil Diamond, I'M A BELIEVER
GOD SAVE JONESY!!!!
