Talk Memphis album
$17.69 Silly Joe entertains audiences with his high-energy songs about the everyday lives of kids and families. With a guitar, a loud voice, a wig, a kazoo, boxer shorts, and a lot of silly body movements, Silly Joe keeps everyone involved in the show. Silly Joe sings about family trips with grumpy dads in "Are We There Yet?" crazy pets in "Timmy Had a Tiger" and "Dumb Dog," brother and sister relationships in "Lil' Sister Blues," and kids who act goofy in "Put It on My Head" and "The Underwear Song." Mixing stories with music, Silly Joe captures family moments in an honest and imaginative way. Kids and parents enjoy laughing with Silly Joe and at themselves as he offers a lighthearted look at the comedy and quirks of family life."I started writing kids songs when I realized that most of the music out there for kids was written with grown up thoughts and little kid sounds. So much of it tried to massage their psyches or give them the right attitudes to take out into the world that I wondered when they were allowed to be kids and just have fun. I know what my own kids like-they like rock and roll! And they have plenty of their own thoughts; they don't need mine. So I decided to listen to my kids, to the funny things they say, and to the honest things they feel, and I started writing from their point of view. I came up with songs like 'Hey Mom I Gotta Use the Potty!' 'I Wanna Be Grumpy,' and one of my favorites, 'The Ballad of Poor Gil,' a sad tale about a dead fish that makes that short trip from bowl to bowl. Then I made a commitment to rock. When I listened to the playback of the master for 'Poor Gil and Other Stories' late one afternoon, a mom who teaches on my hallway came in and asked me to turn it down. That's when I knew I had something fun that kids could relate to. The result is a recording with real kid thoughts and big kid sounds."Silly Joe has recorded two CDs. The first, "Silly Joe Sings Silly Songs," was produced on a minimal budget with simple, mostly acoustic arrangements. "I wanted to make a record that kids could play along with. I wasn't thinking about the parents listening to it. It gives the recording a bit of an edge, kind of like 'The Violent Femmes' for 2 to 10 year olds. And really, I was just trying to make a record for the kids at my camp who bugged their parents all summer long with 'The Underwear Song.' Then, when I sold a whole bunch of them, it was the parents who asked for more. They wanted me to make a record for them. So I made a record for the whole family, from the babies to the grandparents." The result is "Poor Gil and Other Stories," which features full professional arrangements and a greater variety of themes. "One family told me that they drove to Disney and back and listened to 'Silly Songs' the whole way. That's when I knew I had to make a record that wouldn't wear out Mom and Dad." Gil features a cast of 14 professional musicians playing everything from blues guitar and organ to country fiddle, Hawaiian ukulele, and Caribbean steel drums. In theme, it covers the anxiety of kids who don't want to be harassed by kissy relatives in songs like "Everybody Wants to Pinch My Cheeks!" the foibles of parents who are always late dropping off their kids in "Parent Drop Off," the drama of daughters with royal attitudes in "Princess in Training," and the loneliness kids often feel when in a new place in "Lost in the Lost and Found." ...
| | Ned Towns CD (2007)
Talk Memphis CD music
$16.45 NED TOWNS“Every song tells a story . . . tells a story about life!”Take, for instance, “Bounty Hunter” the up tempo rap ballad, influenced by the Vegas rap sound, that proclaims in its refrain “ I’ll find your man! I’m worst than the mob! I’m the Bounty Hunter and I love my job!” The life of this song is a story in itself. Singer and song writer, Ned Towns, asked himself “What’s the most important positive message that I could present in a rap song?” Frustrated with all the shallow, one dimensional hate rap, Ned didn’t care to glorify, or indulge, songs about drugs, murder or who has the fastest car but wanted to capture a real issue - guys leaving - abandoning - their kids. That’s real life. He focused on the issue of fatherless children and thought about a guy, a hero to some - a nightmare to others, who finds the fathers. The world needed a bounty hunter to make these guys take responsibility for their kids. The lyrics came from the stories of fellow truckers, the sad eyed women left behind and his own observations of the affected kids. The song reflects his in depth knowledge of the highways and the many lost souls who, for whatever reason, left their babies. “Last seen in an eighteen wheeler, Daddy gotta run so we can eat and crocodile tears coming down - don’tcha know. All this happened five years ago. I’ll find your man! I’m worst than the mob! I’m the Bounty Hunter and I love my job!” Some of his songs crackle with wit and sarcasm. The lyrics of one of NED TOWNS’ most popular hits “How Can You Baby Sit A Man?” reflects a question asked, almost innocently, by a man who was told his lady couldn’t see him, “I saw you last night, the fella had you by the hand, you told me you were baby sitting. How can you baby sit a man?”In “She’s So Good to Me,” a man is singing how lucky he is to have a good woman while all his friends, who are going out and partying, tease him. “My friends run around - all over town, just like I used to. But I stand back and watch them doing all those things just like I used to. Call me weak, call me strong. - I don’t care what you say, leave me alone. I’m so lucky - can’t you see? The woman is good to me!” With the re-release of “How Can You Baby Sit a Man?” in overseas markets, the music world is re-discovering NED TOWNS. “You need to live life to see life’s lessons and you gotta live real life to have something to sing about.” Music, and the music world, captivated NED TOWNS from an earl age when, as a teenager, he formed a doo-whap group and sang on the corners in Memphis. The foundation of his unique sound was being forged. Making a living as a truck driver, the music world was never far behind and, eventually, Ned moved to New York City. There, he met Richard and Robert Poindexter (who wrote “Thin Line Between Love and Hate”) -2-and, through them, recorded “Make a Change in Your Life” under his own label, Skillet Records. Enjoying a lot of air play on local radio stations and clubs, NED TOWNS then recorded “How Can You Baby Sit a Man?” which brought him to the attention of Jerry Wexler, owner of Atlantic Records. The record sales did very well in Europe ...
