Hello friends:
The March TMBG is chock full of new recordings. It kicks of with the
pimptastic "Theme from Unlimited." It also features three great new
songs
from our unreleased No! album: "Violin", "Lazy Head and Sleepy Bones"
and
"Clap Your Hands." But because Unlimited truly is unlimited,
we've included a couple of additional "bonus" kids songs that won't be
on
this first kids album: "Clowntown" and "Monsters Of Mud."
A live recording of our special "Flood" show is also part of the March
offering, including lots of songs that have never been performed live.
"Hearing Aid," "They Might Be Giants," "Road Movie to Berlin" and
"Minimum
Wage" all get an exciting new Band of Dan treatment that we think
people
will find intriguing.
And, crawling out of the Crypt are two dusty old tracks taken from a
John
and John radio performance from back when people still thought
asymmetrical hair-dos were exciting: "When It Rains It Snows" and the
"Ronald Nixon" demo version of "O Do Not Forsake Me," which is so
misguided, we seriously considered burying the tape in the backyard,
but
no, it is now here for you, the Unlimited listener to ponder. So that's
24
tracks in all for March. Enjoy.
Sincerely-
John "Flansy" Flansburgh
P.S. Wanted to announce that "The Statue Got Me High" was the winner
of The Favorite Song We Never Play Live, so we'll be workin' that one up
real soon. This month's question is what to call our next album. Vote
early
and often at TMBG Unlimited at EMusic.com.
