JOHNS: JOHN LINNELL

JOHNS: JOHN LINNELL John Linnell: South Carolina [ purchase ] I am going to see the band They Might Be Giants perform later this month, so I know I'd regret not posting about one of the band's two Johns, Linnell and Flansburgh. It also is a great opportunity to showcase John Linnell's solo work instead of going straight to the band's normal library. In 1999, John Linnell released a solo album entitled "State Songs" that included 16 tracks, all entitled state names. Most of the songs do little more than [...]

It Might Be Christmas

They Might Be Giants are always good for the holidays. But the point of this month wasn't just to post holiday songs, but songs about things having to do with the holidays, things like the month of December. "Will You Love Me in December" is so old that it's public domain now. Written in 1907 and recorded by John Linnell for the 1996 album House of Mayors . Linnell, with the other John, also worked with a lot of guys from The Band of Dans and made this funky/swingin' little tune called "Santa Claus" for [...]

Songs in Celebration of The Armpit of the Nation (MP3s)

Songs in Celebration of The Armpit of the Nation (MP3s) And when I say armpit, I mean it in the best possible sense . New Jersey's other nickname, "The Garden State" is apparently derived from an 1876 quote in which Abraham Browning attempted to stir the pride of his fellow Jersey-ites by comparing the state to a giant barrel open at both ends, with Philadelphia picking at one end, and New York rifling through the other. Great. A giant barrel. For most of this and the previous century, the word "barrel" has more of a connotation of toxic waste than of fresh produce. So maybe being [...]
