Yeah, it's one of Mike Patton's (Faith No More, Mr. Bungle) bands.  They do a killer cover.

That's such a cool song...I heard it when I was dosing once. I was out in SF hanging out at a small party until sunrise. What a sunrise that was..from a roof overlooking all of those crosses in the Mission District...

Sounds like a fun time.  "I just" borrowed a DVD of Roxy Music (Eno-era) and T. Rex from about 1971 or so.  They do a killer version of that song, Phil Manzanera (guitarist, currently touring with David Gilmour) does some sick shit that Eno augments with electronics.  Fucking wild.

Also borrowed a DVD of Roxy Music from the Avalon tour at the Apollo Theater in Harlem.

Otoh, Brian Ferry's solo stuff sucks..I think you would agree with that statement for the most part. Granted I haven't heard a lot of it..

Hey!  It's been rainin' an' rainin' in these rustbelt foothills, and although the weather hasn't been conducive to workin outdoors much, it has been perfect for stayin' home and drinkin' beer and smokin' a couple 'a' joints and listenin' to records.  Yesterday a buddy stopped by who recently lost his job, so we took a load of beer cans into the scrapyard where they were buyin' aluminum cans for 75 cents a lb. which if you're not familliar with the price of scrap metals is a very good price.  We made about 47.oo.  We took the money and bought us another case of beer and came back here and rolled a joint and listened to records and tapes for about the next 11 hours.  Here's the play list from yesterday(may not be in exact chronologicl order):

'ol' on a minute whilst I create a joint out of the ashes of yesterdays highs....

Jesse Colin Young - 'Higher and Higher'
Deaf School - 'What a Way To End It All'
The Gabby Pahinui Hawaiian Band - 'Aloha ka Manini(I was very impressed with this one and surprised too.  Real bluesy.  I couldn't understand the Hawaiian lyrics but I could still understand the blues, very cool)

Great tune and Oh! it is the Mamas and the Papas cover...I guess I was just wasted yesterday when I thought that it was different...but maybe that's what confused me because it is a slow-funky-electric-guitar-blues, with lots of effects and such.  The most funky lead guitar-oriented cover of this tune that I' heard yet.  I didn't even recognize it yesterday! Hey! her's what the inside of the record says about the artist:  

Eddie Hazel, longtime guitarist for George Clinton's Parliament-Funkadelic institution of musical insanity(he played the famous solo on "Maggot Brain") believes that he is tuned into extra-terrestrial forces and programmed from above.  One day in 1975, Eddie was on an airliner when he saw a UFO which took him off the plane and fed him to the universe.  When an air-marshall attempted to calm him, Eddie bit the man on the neck.  Result: a year in jail, during which Eddie worked hard at developing his own new style of playing, singing, and writing.  Result: his first solo album: "Game, Dame and Guitar Thangs"

I just picked it up 'cause I seen it was scouted out by Quincy Jones.  I only listened to 2 songs off it so far but they were good.  But I don't really remember...all that well...
