Sorry about the drop of silence here folks. Must have muted the other track or something.

Even Flow Vs Hippychick

This is the first studio recording we did of "Club Song," on Alex Silberman's 4 track. A later studio version, for Anne-Sargent Wooster's video Carmen (1986, I think) was maybe technically better, but lacks the crunch and attitude of this one.  Personnel: Vincent Fogerty, guitar; Rob Schecterson, drums; Alex Silberman, bass; emily xyz, vocals. Song copyright Fogerty/XYZ.

Club Song (Alex production)

It's a mixed bag this time out, with a cold open featuring none other than Eric, the UrbanSurfer himself, interviewed out in the wild (i.e., a basement studio in North Jersey). I ask him a question about keytar ownership that just popped into my head. Great interviews work that way sometimes. After that, we feature a 25-year-old field recording of speeches made at a union holiday party in midtown Manhattan. Then our centerpiece: a dramatic reading of "20 Things Not to Do at an Open Poetry Reading," which originally ran on the Best American Poetry Blog back in November 2015 and was shared widely throughout the Poetryland universe. And, before you know it, the Shadercast episode is over, and you'll have to go back to your regular, workaday lives, trying to forget how the American left couldn't get it together to hold back a totalitarian fake-billionaire from being elected president. We'll be back sooner, rather than later, to help you keep up your diligence to preserve our fragile republic.

VIDEO PREMIERING MONDAY FEB 13th - Stay updated at CHICKENFOOT.US

Supergroup Chickenfoot will release “Divine Termination,” its first new tune in 5 years on BEST + LIVE, the group’s first ever best of collection, on March 10, 2017.  Chickenfoot features front man Sammy Hagar, guitar god Joe Satriani, bassist Michael Anthony (Van Halen), and drummer Chad Smith (Red Hot Chili Peppers).
 
In addition to “Divine Termination,” BEST + LIVE includes over 90 minutes of live music – for the first time released on CD.  Sammy Hagar says, “Listening to this collection of songs from the ‘Foot brings back memories of some of the most fun I've ever had in a band. The chemistry between Chad, Joe, Mike and me is very special. It's almost like visual music -- you can see us having fun when you listen to these songs.”

In May 2016, Chickenfoot reunited for two highly-anticipated one-time shows at Harrah's Lake Tahoe, and played their first complete set in more than six years, along with a special unveiling of the new tune "Divine Termination."  Joe Satriani describes the track as “bone crunching, hell raising rock, dripping with attitude and vibe. Just the way Chickenfoot likes it!”
 
Both the extra CD “LIVE” and the bonus tracks on the best of feature a 13 song strong set list including almost every song from Chickenfoot’s debut album as well as Sammy Hagar’s old Montrose classic “Bad Motor Scooter,” The Who’s “My Generation” and Joe Satriani’s interpretation of “The Star Spangled Banner" – all recorded live in Phoenix 2009 and available for the first time on CD (previously only available as video on the DVD/Blu-ray “Get Your Buzz On.
 
The group’s last album, Chickenfoot III, debuted at #9 on the Billboard 200 when it was released in 2011.

Divine Termination

Ripping off Harry Nilsson yet again. Here's my version of his version of an Everly Brothers medley with "Let The Good Times Roll" thrown in for good measure (again, Harry's idea).
