Why the name Ranch Chimp? it was in humour because, science says that humans have similar DNA to a chimpanzee,so I felt some way related biologically to a chimpanzee. 2nd, everytime I was out of Texas on a vacation or for whatever reason I’m always asked things like, do I live on a ranch?,or have cattle? so I commonly call Dallas the Ranch. "Politically Depressed" was also humour inspired by the 1993- 2002 Bill Maher TV/ tele show "Politically Incorrect".

JACK OFF JILL: ...."My Cat" .... and .... "American Made" ....
Another group that is way past due to honor in this journal is "Jack Off Jill"! As far as their history, I will let this say it. But this 1990's group to me is probably one of the most under- rated group's in alternative or punk music, I frankly dont know how to categorize them, because their sound can be so versatile. The 4 ladies who originally was the foundation of this explosive sound, have long went their seperate way's (1992- 2000), but was a chemistry for a composition that is in a class of it's own.
The toughest part of posting this, was trying to decide which two video's/ song's I should post .... this is one group where I love all they came out with and feel different about every individual piece of their work! But mucho Thanx for what they do have to enjoy, and their work and contribution's! The first piece is called "My Cat" .... and next .... "American Made" ...... Enjoy!
Jack Off Jill- My Cat ... Thanx to THE SOMBER CHILD
Jack Off Jill- American Made ... Thanx to Jack Off Jill- Topic

ReplyDeletehmmm ... i want a cat that plays guitar and is a pussy superstar!!
=}
Me too Mr.Tim! I just love their instrumental blend's in their composition alot!
ReplyDeleteI take it you may be familiar with them Ms Winsome Dove(?) ... I never got to see them "live" but would have loved to, I have all their music, what little they put together. I dont even know if they done the US circuit much as far as touring(?) You would like to have a pussy superstar cat that play's guitar! :) Put it in the "want- ad's" :) (just reminded me of that ole song, maybe the Supreme's, about looking for young men single and free, back in the 1960's)
ReplyDeleteHope thing's are going well for you, and you are feeling better. Thanx for stoppin by!
Correction: The name of the group that put out the song "Want Ad's" was called "Honey Cone" and it was in 1970 ... a female tri vocal group, that was a popular format in that category of music at that time, such as "Three Dog Night", "
ReplyDeleteSupremes" etc.
I just had to look that one up Ms.Winsome Dove, because I simply wasnt sure who done that piece.
Here is the song http://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=honey+cone+want+ad%27s&aq=f
