Friday Night Jukebox, Vol. DLXIII--Blood, Sweat & Tears: And When I Die
Some people claim that there's a woman to blame, but I know...I'm late again....
My introduction to this week's tune is two-fangled as I most definitely remember hearing it back in the day but was reacquainted with it when I picked up a copy of the greatest hits of this week's featured band (for--you guessed it!--a buck at our local library sale). As I listened, it went from "Song I Kind of Liked" to "How Did I Miss How Great This Song Was?" Such are the benefits of aging and with it the acquiring of a more discerning ear....
Blood, Sweat & Tears formed in 1967 in New York City and released their debut album within a year. In what would become a theme, the band went through lineup changes almost immediately and turned to David Clayton Thomas to be their lead singer. Thomas would usher in their most commercially successful years, but they were rather short-lived and by the mid-seventies the band's best days would be behind them. They released their last studio album in 1980, and while still technically a touring band, there are no original members left, and the longest tenured member joined the band in 1989. Near as I can tell, they were not critical darlings, though their second album (this week's featured album) did win a Grammy for Album of the Year. For their career, BS & T released eleven albums (with two #1's), five live albums, sixteen compilations, and twenty-three singles (with three #2's, all of which came on--you guessed it--this week's featured album). While their heyday may have been brief, I can guarantee you there are plenty of bands that would love to have two top of the chart albums and three singles that just missed....
Fun Fact: While I'm not sure it's a record, Blood, Sweat & Tears has had 165 members since their inception. Which leads one to wonder just how many musicians there are who haven't been in BS &T (snark aside, likely thousands)....
"And When I Die" was the third single from their Grammy winning second LP, the rather adventurously named Blood, Sweat & Tears. As noted above, the single would reach #2 (with a bullet!), while the album would hit the top of the Billboard 200. The single also went to #1 in Canada (so many cool kids in the Great White North!).
Fun Fact 2: "And When I Die" was written by folk goddess (he says, even though he's not remotely familiar with her work) Laura Nyro when she was seventeen. Yup, another moment to make you wonder just what the hell you did with your life. She recorded a version as well (heard by me for the first time today, and it's killer), as did Peter, Paul, and Mary, who were actually the first to record it.
Somehow, for the second straight week I'm featuring a song written by someone who is imagining their own death and is also trying to represent said death as being not quite as bad as we all dread it will be. While last week's tune was somewhat foreboding, "And When I Die" is anything but, opening with a nice bit of harmonica before segueing into a bouncy (almost ragtime) song. The song makes the case that while death is horrible, there will be someone left to carry on for all of us after we go. Blood, Sweat & Tears (who apparently weren't fans of the Oxford Comma) were known for commingling horn sections with rock instrumentation, and make full use of that trait here. David Clayton Thomas' vocals truly carry the day, though, as his blue-eyed soul gives the song an old-time gospel feel and makes for a rousing tune. And as such, for another find addition to the annals that are Friday Night Jukebox (my go to closing...).
Lyric Sheet: "Now troubles are many/They're as deep as a well/I can swear there ain't no Heaven/But I pray there ain't no Hell..."
Enjoy:

Friday Night Jukebox, Vol. DLXII--Blue Oyster Cult: (Don't Fear) The Reaper
Roll over Beethoven, tell Tchaikovsky...I'm late again (though less than a week--barely!--this time)....
This week's introduction comes with a bit of a twist--I most definitely remember the song from its release when I was in high school in the seventies, but I don't remember really liking or disliking the song. My second introduction came in the nineties when I saw the movie The Stoned Age on a cable movie channel, in which this week's tune plays a major role. It's one of those movies that's so bad it's actually good, and because of the song's prominence in the movie I became a fan. Through the years, my appreciation for it has grown as have so many other songs from the decade of my musical awakening....
Blue Oyster Cult formed in 1967 at Stony Brook University in Long Island as the Soft White Underbelly. They spent several years playing local gigs and eventually became a popular local band. In 1968 they signed with Elektra and released a couple of albums without much success. In 1969 the band had a bad review of one of their shows and their manager changed their name to Blue Oyster Cult. In 1971 they switched to Columbia Records and began their ascent to stardom. They would have a string of hit records through the early eighties before time and tide caught up with them. They took a hiatus in 1986 but reformed in 1987 and have been a working band ever since, albeit with numerous lineup changes (guitarist Buck Dharma and lead vocalist Eric Bloom have been the only constants). For their career, BOC has released sixteen studio albums (their highest charting hit #24), ten live albums (one hit #22), twenty-one (!) compilations, and thirty-two singles (with two hitting the top forty). They've sold over twenty-five million records and released their latest album just last year.
Fun Fact: The band got its name from the poetry of its initial manager (from 1967 to 1995), rock critic Sandy Pearlman. Pearlman had a cycle in which there was a group of aliens called Blue Oyster Cult who secretly guided earth's history, hence the band's name.
Fun Fact 2: BOC had a veritable Who's Who helping write their lyrics through the years. In addition to Pearlman, rock critic Richard Meltzler, Punk Goddess Patti Smith, poet and musician Jim Carroll, and science fiction writers Michael Moorcock, Eric Van Lustbader, and John Shirley all helped pen lyrics for BOC songs.
"(Don't Fear) The Reaper" was released in 1976 from their fourth album, the rather snoopily entitled Agents of Fortune. The single would hit #12 (with a bullet!) on the Billboard Hot 100, while the album would peak at #29 on the Billboard 200. In addition, the song was ranked at #405 on Rolling Stone's list of the five hundred best songs of all-time.
Much like last week's tune, "(Don't Fear) The Reaper" has so much to like about it that it's almost impossible to fit into a paragraph. Buck Dharma's tale of a young couple broaching the other side (he said the song came from imagining himself dying early) opens with some ominous (and unforgettable) guitars and proceeds to blow our minds from there. Dharma's lyrics are (once again) not your usual top forty fare (even invoking the deaths of Romeo and Juliet), and I love how each line in the chorus opens with the backing vocals before Dharma sings his line (not sure I've heard it done this way before but might have?). The band is incredible throughout, but none more so than in the instrumental break which sounds like a symphonic orchestra kicking out the jams (may have stolen that line from another song...). And I almost forgot the simple by wondrous la la las. As I've noted a time of two here before, every now and again a very talented band has a moment of sheer greatness in a song or album, and this was the song for Blue Oyster Cult. In a word: stunning.
Lyric Sheet: "Valentine is done/Here, but now they're gone/Romeo and Juliet/Are together in eternity (Romeo and Juliet)/40,000 men and women everyday...
[Note: Dharma guesstimated that forty thousand people die every day but was about a hundred thousand short of the actual total.]
Enjoy:

Friday Night Jukebox, Vol. DLXI--Counting Crows: Mr. Jones
She's got a ticket to ride, she's got a ticket to ride, she's got a ticket to ride...and I'm (well more than a week) late again....
Alas, my introduction to this week's tune is little more than its being released and being a ubiquitously played song after said release. Still, thanks to the song's anthemic nature, I'm often surprised at how much I hear it played in old people's stores, i.e., grocery stores (Kroger, Meijer) and big box stores (Target--boo!--and Wal-Mart--double boo!). Us old geezers occasionally get a thing or two right....
I wrote about Counting Crows in Vol. CIV way back in December of 2016. In the years since, the band has released one more album (just this year) and one EP. They've also continued their well renowned live performing, with at least two more tours in the interim. Lead singer Adam Duritz has joined the podcast world, with the musically inspired weekly Underwater Sunshine Podcast, and the band has put on a twice annual music fest featuring independent artists in New York, the Underwater Sunshine Fest, starting in 2018. As I did not note it in my original post on the band, for their career Counting Crows have released eight studio albums (with six reaching the top ten, and one #1), one EP, five live albums, and two compilations. They've also released thirty-two singles, with two of those hitting the top ten. I also failed to note that they are a band from my forever home of San Francisco--so many cools kids in my city by the bay!
Fun Fact: "Mr. Jones" was one of the first songs I learned to play on the guitar, but my late nephew Josh, who called me one night to ask for a copy of the sheet music, played a much better version than I.
Fun Fact 2: At one time I played it well enough to play along with the video on MTV, which, as completely geeky as this may sound, was one of the major highlights of my now thirty some odd year foray into guitar playing....
"Mr. Jones" was the 1993 debut single from their debut (obviously) album, the rather forward-looking entitled August and Everything After. The single reached #7 (with a bullet!) on the Billboard Hot 100, while the album peaked at #5 on the Billboard 200.
There is so much to like in "Mr. Jones." To begin with: everything (may have stolen that line from a movie....). The lyrics--not your standard top forty fare by any means (with Picasso, Dylan, flamenco guitars and dancers, lions, and cool cats all getting a mention)--capture all the angst of being shy and geeky in a world where being cool is glorified. Duritz sings with all the abandon of a man who's got one chance to get it right and does indeed. The band kills it musically, and something I noticed while doing my half-assed research, has some killer backing vocals (sha-la-la, man--may have stolen that from a song....) in the all-important ending. There's a bridge that's almost poetic, and the "sha-la-las" are one of those small facets of a song that just adds to its perfection. And to top it all off, it has one of my favorite lines in a song (see below). As my loyal readers (all three of you) have heard me say a time or two, just a fantastic addition to the annals that are Friday Night Jukebox.
Lyric Sheet: "She's perfect for you/Man, there's got to be somebody for me/I wanna be Bob Dylan/Mr. Jones wishes he was someone/Just a little more funky..."
[Blogger's Aside: Who'd have ever guessed that Bob Dylan just wasn't funky enough?]

Random thoughts from my youngest son's and my foray into our local No Kings protest:
1) Really surprised at the excellent turnout. Not an expert, but I'd guess around a thousand people. That's not bad for a small community like Lake Orion.
2) Signs, signs, everywhere a sign. From the clever to the humorous, from warnings to promises, people put a lot of time and effort into making their statements.
3) Best sign: "Trump should win the Nobel Piece of Shit Prize."
4) Stunned there wasn't a counter protest of any kind. There were a couple of young men walking among us with MAGA hats on who managed to (very peacefully) engage a few of the No Kings protesters, but for the most part they were ignored. Really wondering if Trump's colossal shitshow is beginning to wear on even his supporters.
5) The most amazing part of the day was all the honking and thumbs up and clapping and picture taking we got from the cars driving past. For every person who gave us the finger, there were at least a hundred cars cheering us on. There are indeed more of us than there are of them.
6) Lots of props to the Lake Orion police. They stayed out of the way and even pulled over some asshole who sprayed us with black smoke from his beater of a truck. Got a standing ovation for their troubles. Lawless, my ass....
7) If the best response to our protest you can muster is to give us the finger, your movement is some pretty weak sauce. No effort to counter protest, no effort to make signs, no effort to try to show even the slightest bit of ingenuity. No shit they're attracted to a fat ass lazy slob like Trump--birds of a feather.
8) We lost the last twenty minutes of our protest to a rainstorm, but as my youngest son and I were preparing to leave the clouds opened up a bit, the sun snuck its head through, and in the distance, we could see a rainbow. That, my loyal readers, is what you call a very good sign.
We ended the day filled with hope that we can turn this thing around. And I believe we will.
America? Hell, yeah!
Fuck Donald Trump
Peace,
