You may recall in my very first post, I mentioned a certain WIP that I entitled "Mindless Mashups", which was suppose to have been a compilation of mashups featuring tracks from Mindless Self Indulgence. Well, now I've decided to unceremoniously release what I've produced so far. Seeing as there won't be any chance I'll be able to come up with any more ideas for mashups using MSI tracks, and the fact that the band is now on hiatus for an undetermined amount of time while Jimmy E. currently tends to his side project, The Left Rights, I figure I might as well let these little heffers loose on your ears. My loss, your gain. Enjoy!

F--k That Fascist Beat (pre-album version)

At least six years before Frankie goes To Hollywood’s hit Relax with its simulated sex video, The Tubes did it bigger, better and live on stage.

In 1977 they achieved the almost unique feat of selling out a whole week at Hammersmith Odeon without even having a hit single. That was probably in part attributed to their highly risque stage show which, apart from simulated sex, exploding televisions, mock bondage habits, semi nude dancers, a chainsaw and a lead singer on stilts standing 12 foot high.

They began as a bunch of school friends in two different areas of Arizona. They were in two different bands called The Beans and The Red, White & Blues band who in 1969 relocated to San Francisco and merged to become the Tubes. The line up consisted of lead singer Fee Waybee (b: John Waybill), guitarist Bill Spooner, another guitarist Roger Steen, Michael Cotten on synthesizer, Rick Anderson on bass, Vince Welnick on piano and Praire Prince (b: Charles Prince) on drums.

They released their eponymous first album in 1975 which was produced by Al Kooper and contained the song White Punks on Dope which eventually charted in the UK in 1977. It failed to make the Billboard Hot 100 album chart, but the 1976 follow-up Young and Rich made number 46. Their 1978 release What Do You Want From Live became their first UK hit album. This was followed by the 1979 album Remote Control which contained the melodic Prime Time. It was produced by the Todd Rundgren and was a concept album about a television-addicted idiot savant which was based on the Jerzy Kosinski book Being There.

The cover of the album showed a baby sitting in a carry chair watching Celebrity Squares (or Hollywood Squares as it was originally called in the US) on a novelty television set. The Celebrity Squares image was replicated for the Prime Time single which also came in yellow, blue, green, red, white, black and multicoloured vinyl. In the 1970s, Waybill, Spooner and Steen actually were invited to appear on the show.

Around the time Prime Time was released, the band had just finished headlining with Frank Zappa and Peter Gabriel at the Knebworth Festival of 1978. They had also performed in the Cher Special, a TV musical and comedy revue and  in another show which included Cher, Dolly Parton, and Rod Stewart, The Tubes were in the part where the forces of good and evil were battling for Cher’s soul. Dolly Parton appeared as an angel with a backing choir who tried to steer Cher to Heaven.

After the Tubes split, Fee moved to L.A to start an acting career, but hated it, he said, “To the film industry, you’re just a piece of meat.” He had a small part in the 1989 film Bill & Ted’s Excellent Adventure playing one of ‘The Three Most Important People In The World’ alongside Martha Davis and the E-Street Band’s Clarence Clemons. Later the same year, he became a staff writer for Warner Chappell and was teamed with the then-unknown Richard Marx where together they wrote Edge Of A Broken Heart for the all-girl group Vixen as well as Marx’s own early singles. Spooner now teaches song writing at the San Francisco Blue Bear School Of Music. Prince and Cotten both run an art business and have worked with Bonnie Raitt and Gloria Estefan. Steen continued as lead singer with the Tubes and is still out touring and releasing pretty much an album a year with their latest being 2009s Mondo Birthmark.

've been cranking out mashups since '08, was a member of mashup forum GYBO up until it's utter demise in August of 2012, joined Mashstix earlier that same year.

UPDATE 11/25/14: OK, I know I've been somewhat MIA for most of the year. Short story: my old laptop was, shall we say, somewhat unreliable until the hard drive went kaput around mid-September. Now working with a brand spanking new one, so there's still hope for a return(Cross your fingers!).
A little heads up for my followers: enjoy what's up here now, because I might be taking everything down (provided SC doesn't beat me at it first), and starting over with brand spanking new mashies and, quite possibly, a new ID. Also, there's a good chance I will be compiling my previous work (et al., the tracks you see here now) for an album in archive form, some of which will be reproduced in new versions! More to come...

UPDATE 7/12/21: I'M BAAA-AAACK!!!
...well, sort of. I'll expain... 

OK, I know I've kept all of yous in suspense for, what, 6, maybe 7 years since the last time I posted anything on this here SC account, likely asking yourselves, "Hey, whatever happened to that MashWiz fella, anyway?" Well, the simple answer is, as I'm sure you can guess, life got in the way BIG TIME! But for those of you whom I've been following for all this time here, you already know that I've still been perusing newly posted tracks and dropping comments from time to time. 

Well, first off, I'm sure I don't have to state too clearly how things have been drastically altered here in the States after being slammed by the Shitstorm Of The Century, namely the shenanigans wrought by the former regime masterminded by POTUS #45. As if having to go through 4 years of oblivion, misery, and a pessimistic outlook on what would have been "the future",  under a narcissistic, delusional, and downright pathetic excuse of a "leader" (more like "bleeder"), topped off promptly by a pandemic, wasn't enough, it wasn't long before the effects would breach my attempts at abstinence from any interest in the world of politics, as well as my life in general, such as it was. Yes, I and my immedate family too suffered much loss and tumult during that time, For me, though, the nadir was the loss of a beloved pet in November (not COVID-related), which left me emotionally reeling for months. But, all things considered, we've managed to survive and things are slowly progressing and reverting back to optimum condition and pace.

So, now that you're up to speed, I shall proceed with this formal announcement:

MashWiz...is DEAD! DEAD, I TELL YOU!!! MWAAAHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!! 
Ahem, er...

As such, effective upon my next posting (and as hinted in my previous update), I shall henceforth be taking on a new identity which will be revealed within same said post, depending on how smoothly the transition goes.

So hold on to your ears and hang on to your seats, folks!
THE BEST IS YET TO COME!

P.S. For any of you who expected or requested a D/L of my Ylvis mashups, I'm sorry, but I won't be able to upload them again due to the fact that the hard drive in which all my original work is stored has been having issues that, for the unforeseeable future, prevents me from accessing them. I may, time permitting, produce new versions of them sometime down the road. Once I have them uploaded, new D/L links will be posted.
