I have this song in a CD called "The Bluethings story" released on the Collectables label. Atrocious sound quality for the most part. There's also a volume 2 on the same label
Avatar 7:02pm

I did a lot of work on the audio for this episode's material - I hope it is an improvement.

Unfortunately, there are still some songs on the recent Blow Your Mind CD from Cicadelic that have the intros clipped off - very frustrating

I am glad, Olivia!
  7:24pm
Javier from Argentina:

The most amazing thing that happened to me was when I noticed in "The Paul Jones Collection Vol. 2" that the last song was missing and replaced with another song that was on Volume 3. I wrote to Cherry Red Records and they've sent me the song in an MP3 file, otherwise unavailable on CD because of their lousy quality control.

Very little quality these days :(

"Taxman" rip-off?
Avatar 7:29pm
cometothesunshine:

So many songs are based off of the "Taxman" bass riff - also has the vocal verse melody of "Clarksville"

Yes, as someone once said "there are a limited amount of chord combinations available" lol.

yes and no. there are lots of chords. there are only so many that sound good together.

Bit of a Love vibe here
Avatar 7:35pm
cometothesunshine:

I would say that the Blue Things were one of the most innovative and interesting bands of their era - and coming from Kansas, they are beyond compare for their daring music.
  7:36pm
Javier from Argentina:

I agree. Time for a 160 minute double cd set of their stuff remastered. I'd buy it!
Avatar 7:37pm
cometothesunshine:

The Cicadelic Set has so much great stuff - unlikely anything more will ever be done.
Avatar 7:38pm
cometothesunshine:

Plus, all of the Dot label tracks burned in the Universal fire. So, no hope of a proper Val CD.

It always brings me sadness to learn of "lost mastertapes".

Avatar 7:40pm
Richard.Whig:

Is this the right time to mention that our guitarist is from Kansas and, until his recent relocation to San Diego, played in a band that billed themselves as The Blue Things, played all Blue Things material, contained no actual Blue Things members, but got good bookings in Kansas at car shows, high school reunions, etc!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥ 7:42pm
Uncle Michael:

Who's that, Richard?
Avatar 7:42pm

It took me forever to find the RCA Blue Things album - Rob Santos actually found me a copy when we were both in Tulsa - I bet it only sold in Kansas and thereabouts.
