Oh yeah, Arcesia. For the full story of John Arcesi, and how he went from big band singer to acid rock bellower, check out his Wikipedia entry. This song comes from one of the many bootleg versions of the Arcesia Reachin album, and gives you a good idea of Arcesia's overwrought vocal style.

For another Arcesia track, check out my entry in the 365 Days Project (2003). Also keep an eye on arcesia.com.

Not much going on this week.I've got a couple of things going right now, but nothing I'm willing to share yet The above graphic is a hint of things to come, though.

Oh, here's something; I've started a fake Twitter account. I'm currently posting stuff under FakeCriswell, who is obviously NOT the famous psychic predictor seen in so many Ed Wood films. Follow that account for various false predictions throughout the day.

And stay tuned for the usual Bad Music Wednesday, because I'll have a classic from the Incorrect Music days to share.

Remember Shooby Taylor? If not, then check out Shooby.com for the whole story. Years ago there were plans to release some legal Shooby Taylor CDs; since his whole act was scatting over existing recordings, there are obviously a bunch of legal issues to sort out before CDs can be made. But it's been quite a while since any updates on the project. I'm sure things are proceeding, but at a slow pace. In the meantime, enjoy this version of "Tico Tico" from the classic Shooby demo tape.
