Friday Night Jukebox, Vol. DVI--Elvis Costello: Alison
We're back to Any Old Day Emaycee Feels Like Jukebox....
This week's featured tune is the one that made me an Elvis Costello fan--the first song to stand out for me on his heralded and incredible debut album. How the song never became a massive chart hit will always be one of music's great mysteries...well, at least to me....
I wrote about Elvis Costello in Jukebox, Vol. CXXXIV, and as it was a quite nice write up (if I do say so myself) of a very successful, sweeping, and varied musical career, I'll just leave it there and move on to the next paragraph....
[Say...how many paragraphs can we end with an ellipsis?]
"Alison" was the first single from Costello's seminal debut album, the rather honestly named My Aim Is
True. While the single did not chart in the U.S, the U.K., or Canada upon its release, from the Better Late Than Never Files it was ranked #318 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The album would fare much better, reaching #14 in the U.K., #24 in Canada, and #32 in America.
True. While the single did not chart in the U.S, the U.K., or Canada upon its release, from the Better Late Than Never Files it was ranked #318 on Rolling Stone's list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. The album would fare much better, reaching #14 in the U.K., #24 in Canada, and #32 in America.
Fun Fact: Linda Ronstadt did a cover version of "Alison" (big fan of Ms. Ronstadt but not her rendition of it) that Costello openly derided. He did admit in later years, though, that he certainly didn't mind spending the royalty checks her version brought him.
Through the course of our lives, there are many of us who, at one time or another, were enamored of someone with a significant other who was less than the perfect mate and thought to ourselves "I'd be better for so-and-so than that loser." Well, Elvis Costello put that thought into song with "Alison." A beautiful ballad, with heartfelt vocals from Costello (especially love the way he uses cadence--staccato-- to make the song even more powerful), a sweet guitar that echoes his plaintive wail, and some cryptic lyrics from Costello, the song ranks with Pearl Jam's "Black," Linda Ronstadt's "Long, Long Time," the Carpenter's "Superstar," and I'm sure one or two more that don't come quickly to mind as one of the all-time great paeans to unrequited love. Does it say something about me that I've written a Jukebox post on each of them? Probably, but we'll save that for my (who the hell would ever care) biography. A wonderful song that I never, ever get tired of--a dream ballad.
Lyric Sheet: "I'm not going to get too sentimental/Like those other sticky valentines/'Cause I don't know if you were loving somebody/I only know it isn't mine..."
Enjoy:

Friday Night Jukebox, Vol. DV--The Velvet Underground: Sweet Jane
At least this week's is only six days late, he says sheepishly....
Some years back, I made a playlist of my youngest son's favorite tunes on my iPod, and at some point, I added about fifty to sixty tunes that I consider to be classics that I thought he should have some knowledge of (for the three of you that care, some he liked, some were meh for him). When the weather is warm, we listen to the playlist while we play catch or shoot some hoops, and a few weeks back this week's tune came on and there was a bridge that I was totally unfamiliar with. I've heard it numerous times through the years and couldn't believe I'd never noticed it. Well, after doing my half-assed research, I discovered that the record label cut the bridge for its release as a single, but that on subsequent releases of the song on compilation albums, the Velvet Underground re-added the bridge because it made the song better (it does). All of which just goes to show...you never know when rock and roll will surprise you yet again....
I wrote about the Velvet Underground in Jukebox, Vol. CLXXVIII, and as the band is still defunct (two deaths, one no longer playing, and the last doing whatever it is musically that pleases him) I'll leave my brief bio right there. I should note, though, that for this week's featured album Doug Yule replaced John Cale (who left to travel the Avant-Garde Trail). I also noticed that when I wrote their original post, I didn't link to their all-important discography, which can be found here. Whew!
"Sweet Jane" was the first single from their penultimate album, the rather heavily entitled, Loaded. Neither the single nor the album charted. However, in another in a long line of examples that prove the maxim "He who laughs last, laughs best," the single is listed at #294 in the most recent Rolling Stone list of the 500 Greatest Songs, and the album ranks at #242 in their latest listing of the 500 Greatest Albums of All Time.
Fun Fact: When recording this week's album, the band was told by its record label that it wanted an album that was "loaded with hits." Hence the name of this week's featured LP: Loaded.
"Sweet Jane" is as close to a perfect single as any band could ever hope for. From its three-chord acoustic guitar (which, ahem, I can play on my guitar, however half-assed) to Lou Reed's animated vocals (dare I say that Lou sounds like he's actually having fun?), from the band's full-throated backing vocals on the chorus (and at the end of many lines) to the "la-la-la's" in the bridge, the song hits every note, every vocal, every instrument with precision. It will forever be a mystery to me how this song is not as well-known as the most iconic rock songs from the seventies--from "Born to Run" to "Dream On," or from "Stairway to Heaven" to "More Than a Feeling," the Velvet Underground created just as big of a masterpiece. A beautiful single, everything that anyone could hope that rock and roll could ever be.
Lyric Sheet: "But anyone who ever had a heart/Oh, they wouldn't turn around and break it/And anyone who ever played a part/Oh, they wouldn't turn around and hate it..."

Friday Night Jukebox, Vol. DIV--The Strokes: Barely Legal
Yikes--nine ten eleven days late....
One of the many perks of writing a weekly post about my favorite songs is that every now and again I remember one (honestly, this week's tune should have been written about long ago) that for whatever reason I'd not listened to in years. This week it made me pull out an album I hadn't heard in ages as well, and it was quite the treat to listen once again to one of the best debut albums ever after so many years. Sometimes, it does seem like you can have too much music....
The Strokes formed in New York City in 1998 (it's five members all come from wealthy families--proof that not all rich people are assholes) and began playing gigs within a year. In early 2001 they released their debut EP which sparked a bidding war among the major record labels and by the end of the year they had released their debut LP. It was met with smashing success critically (for the most part), and while the sales weren't otherworldly, they were solid. The Strokes turned that debut into a twenty-six-year career, and while they have often recorded and toured sporadically, they are still performing together. They've had a great deal more chart success in the U.K. (all of their albums save one have charted higher in Great Britain, and they've had ten singles hit the singles chart compared to one in the U.S.). For their career, The Strokes have released six studio albums (five of which reached the top ten here in America), 2 EPs, and 17 singles. Amazingly, they haven't released a live album--they have developed quite a reputation for the excellence of their live shows. The band was a major influence on many bands that followed in their wake, including Arctic Monkeys, the Killers, and Franz Ferdinand.
Fun Fact: Lead singer and songwriter Julian Casablancas credits the Pearl Jam song "Yellow Ledbetter" (Jukebox Vol.CDXXIII) as being the reason he began making music. Not hard to see why...
"Barely Legal" was the first single from their debut album, the rather nihilistically named Is This It (yes, no question mark). The song was not released as a single (should have been!), while the album was the worst charting of their career here in the States, peaking at #33. However, it has had quite the legacy in the succeeding years, ending up at #114 on Rolling Stone's latest ranking of the 500 best albums all-time, and it has shown up on numerous other best of all-time, as well as best of the 2000s, lists.
While the subject matter of "Barely Legal" is a bit on the racy side (the protagonist is wooing a young woman who is just past the age of consent), the song itself is rock solid rock and roll. The guitar interplay is an electric jolt to the senses, with all the high voltage of a lightning bolt. In a word: incredible. Casablancas vocals catch all the yearning--and doubt--of a man who knows he should know better. The lyrics are full of tasty tidbits, knowing winks, and even a sanguine f-bomb. This is the story of a young band making a statement about their talents and their worldview--and succeeding beyond a shadow of a doubt.
Lyric Sheet: "Oh, you ain't never had nothing I wanted, but/I want it all, I just can't figure out/Nothing..."

And the GOP talk is cheap
Walz: They talk about small government. Small enough to be in your bedroom, small enough to be in your exam room, small enough to be in your library telling you the things you should make decisions about. pic.twitter.com/CxsPsAYhZw

Has there ever been a bigger whiny ass bitch in American history?
Trump: We have the enemy outside which would be the very standard countries. We have the enemy from within. The people who go around indicting their political opponents, especially when their political opponent didn’t want to do it to them. I could’ve done it so easy. pic.twitter.com/kdG7LwNO5T

What you would expect from three horrid human beings
Reagan made a deal with Iran to DELAY the release of U.S. hostages til AFTER the election

Nixon made a deal with the Vietnamese to delay ending the war til AFTER the election
Trump likely made a deal with Netanyahu to block a ceasefire til AFTER the election
Same damn playbook

And it's getting worse by the day
In every appearance, almost every time, we will see that Donald Trump does not have the mental capacity to make a single statement, to carry out a single conversation, to hold a debate, and certainly to carry out the functions of president in a rational, reality-based way.

When you have to hide his instability from MAGA, you've got major problems
Fox cuts away from Trump’s incoherent press conference where he cited a Project 2025 author, denied the 2020 election results, and defended self-avowed white nationalist and 9/11 conspiracy theorist Laura Loomer pic.twitter.com/Yl2niq4drj
