One more in memory of Col. Will tonight, a song and an artist both Johnny and Will loved to tears. One morning with the very capable Will on pencil drums he and Johnny did their best karaoke version of this song. Nick Lowe and 'Cracking Up'

Friday night MULTIMEDIA EXTRAVAGANZA with NICK LOWE!

Nick Lowe is so cool he pisses ice cubes. He takes up an awful lot of space in Johnny's iTunes libarry. How cool is he? Well Johnny's gonna hip you. Not many artists could make such a snappy and upbeat tune to this kind of subject matter. The song 'Marie Provost' deals with an old silent picture starlet in Hollywood who couldn't find work once the talking pictures came out. Well Marie died broken hearted at home of something or other. And when Marie died her dog had nothing to eat.

There you go.

As we move into a balmy afternoon let's keep the fun quotient high

And we'll entrust Nick Lowe's wicked little number 'Switchboard Susan' and all of the double entendres contained therein to do the job.
