The DAMAGED Hearing Playlist for 12-21-10


Photobucket"Caught the end of Live at Lunch... ugh... glad to hear the dulcet tones of Mr. Fowler!" - Mike CadaverLab

Louis Fowler, Scott B. and Lyle Allen-"A KRFC Christmas Carol"
Cheekyboy-“Biggie's Last Christmas (Puff Daddy and Notorious BIG vs. Wham!)”

Before the show, Hoogie had photoshoot for the COLORADO PAW PAGES magazine--he being featured for his work on DH--so I was in an extra happy mood because that meant that Hoogie would be co-hosting a VERY SPECIAL CHRISTMAS episode with me! One that would be full of tacos and cheer and goodwill and all that.

"I'm listening even as i type. The miracle of the Interweb!" - Douglas

Ben Prytherch-“DAMAGED Hearing”

Every Christmas, DAMAGED Hearing has numerous traditions. The first of which is, by adding a jingle bell sound effect in the background, you can turn any song into a Christmas song. Last year it was "Fancy" by Reba. This year? A two-fer you guys:

R. Kelly and Louis-“Bump N' Grind (XXXmas Mix)"
Tag Team and Louis-"Whoomp!There It Is (Whoomp! It's Xmas Mix)"

"I am a big supporter of both "bumping" and "grinding" -- especially around the holidays." - Matt

I'm left winded, but I'm still in good enough spirits to annoy the piss out of my audience. My Christmas gift to them? Eight different versions of "Feliz Navidad", the greatest Christmas song of all time!

Jose Feliciano-“Feliz Navidad”
Boney M.-“Feliz Navidad”
David Hasselhoff-“Feliz Navidad”
Công Thành and Lynn-“Feliz Navidad”

"Feliz navidad!" - Kristy

Charo-“Feliz Navidad”
Kathleen Ohlsson (Slitz)-“Feliz Navidad”
El Vez-“Feliz Navidad”
Aqua Teen Hunger Force-“Feliz Navidad”

PhotobucketI brought my guitar into the studio today, and the fact that I am by no means a good singer or guitarist doesn't stop me in the slightest from performing a (I'm pretty sure) ten-minute long version of "Feliz Navidad" that is fueled by a non-stop sipping of Sparks holiday cocktails.

"you got a great set o' pipes on you mister." - Mike Wing

Charo-“(Mamacita) Donde Esta Santa Claus?”
Raphael-“La Última Navidad”
Speedy Gonzales-“The Hat I Got for Christmas is Too Beeg”
Patton Oswalt-“My Christmas Memory”
The Chipmunks-“The Chipmunk Song (Slowed Down)”

The Sparks that Hoogie and I are ingesting is sending this part into lampshade-mode. Hoogz gets on the mic and starts barking everytime I ask him if he wants a taco for Christmas. Boy does he! He requests that we sing a duet of Wham's "Last Christmas". It is very heartfelt.

"I think Hoogie WANTS SOME TACOS!" - Freddy NOTLP

Jimmy Buffett-“Christmas in the Caribbean”
Hernando Hopkins and Orchestra-“Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer (Cha Cha)”
Los Del Rio-“Macarena Christmas” (When I played this, everyone in the station came inside the studio and started Macarenaing. It was mildly embarrassing.)
Big John Greer-“We Want to See Santa Do the Mambo”
Peter Rugolo Orchestra-“Jingle Bell Mambo”

Let's give back and get serious and remember the reason for the season with this slow jamz...


New Kids on the Block-“This One's For the Children”
MC Hammer-“Have You Seen Her? (Looking for Xmas Mix)”
Norwegian Recycling-“Miracles”

PhotobucketMy other Christmas tradition? A replay of Andy B. and mine's cover of Cheech and Chong's stoner Xmas classic. We recorded it, live on the air, about five or so years ago. It was one of the first times I was on the air and people seem to love it. At least people who like weed.

Louis Fowler and Andy B.-“Santa Claus and His Old Lady”
Christophe-“Merry X-mas (I Don't Wanna Fight Tonight)”

Here's to hoping that each and everyone of my listeners had a Merry Christmas. Seriously!

Freddy Fender-“Vaya Con Dios”

"You’re the best thing on the radio...no lying!" - Freddy NOTLP

finally come to fruition shortly. I will be releasing it as a free

Reviews from September 2010 Punk Globe

By: Libby Freeman

Christophe's 2009 release "Crossroads" is something you should definitely run out and grab if you like Warren Zevon and/or Michael Hurley. Though, I should warn you not to be expecting the more obvious eccentricities of Zevon or Hurley. Also, to be sure you run out and grab the right 4 song ep, this is Christophe, formerly of Mockingbird Lane, not Christophe the French singer song writer born to Italian parents, and certainly not the Christophe who lead the Haitian revolution. The ep begins w/ "Red Dirt," a confessional sounding ballad w/ a narrator that "walks a fine line between heaven and hell." "You're Gonna Drive Me to Drinkin'" is a folk country song that describes a love affair that has soured and ends w/ the narrator announcing his exit. My personal favorite track, "Misery Road" reminds me of Nick Cave's "Murder Ballads." Yes, it reminds me of the whole album, and no, it is not a murder ballad. It's a mix of vocals and sentiment w/ the narrator lamenting, "take my advice and stay away from misery road." The final track, "The Life of an Outlaw" is the testimony of a road weary traveler who has "been called a bruiser..." How often do you hear anyone use the word "bruiser" in song? Not very, which is another good reason to check this ep out!

One more from Christophe, and one more well worth listening to. This time a 45, "Fear the Dead" B/W "If the Sun Don't Shine." The 2nd guitar on "Fear the dead" is decidedly hard rock, but w/ the same sort of outsider folk sound I mentioned in the "Crossroads" review. If you saw the sleeve randomly and knew nothing of Christophe, you might get the impression that this was a rockabilly band. Nope, not at all. The lyrical depiction of a zombie invasion peaked my curiosity enough to check YouTube for a video and happily there was one (directed by Nick Sanford) complete w/ stumbling zombies and Christophe singing from the back of a pick up truck. Very nice. "If the Sun Don't Shine" is a sweet song written to cheer a maudlin girl w/ promises of "always being here for you when your blue," and keeping w/ the spirit of a love that will defy the cosmos and natural world if need be.
