disc A (78:43)

01. MONITOR (2:31)
This opening salvo is a cherished favorite record of RSM's since he was a young boy in Madison TN. Relatively obscure 45 rpm single DECCA 29899 by Teddy Phillips and his Orchestra, circa 1956. Bought in a 25˘ brownpaper grab-bag of surprise singles. Brilliant uptempo classical jazz cartoony music, with a touch of swinging exotica and futuristic electronica. Mr. Moore overdubbed his vocals and electric guitar 26 May 2004. monitor45.jpg

02. THE (0:17)
03. GENUINE (0:16)
04. ARTICLE (I MISS KRYS) (3:49)
Hello. And welcome. To my nightmare. Listen up. Mellotron samples borrowed from Streetly Electronics UK, forgive the false starts and missteps; eventually this can be repaired and expertly edited as it should have been to begin with. Complete cyberelectro midifile composed and performed by Rich LaBonte. Mr. Moore overdubbed vocals and guitars 24 May.  LISTEN

Dear Ann Landers

I miss Krys, I miss my baby
Where did all the calendars go?
I miss love, I'm going crazy
Juliet betrays Romeo

I miss kissin', can't kiss my baby
Where did all the lip gloss go?
I miss huggin', I'm goin crazy
Pretty maids all in a row.

Where'd she go?
She has gone but I betcha I can get her to return
Or maybe not.
Where'd she go?

I miss this, that and the other
Yesterday's tomorrow will show
I miss fun, sister and brother
Temporary pleasure window

I miss Krys, I miss my baby
Where did all the calendars go?
I miss love, I'm going crazy
Will I die before Beau?

05. TAKE BACK (2:28)
Take 1. Written and performed by Moore 7 Feb 2004. Superior alternate remix to appear on the forthcoming duo album "The Yung & Moore Show".
Take me back
I really didn't wanna come here
I haven't found anyone nearly as
Nice as me, can you

Take me home
I really never meant to leave then
Someone was a-pullin' my sleeve when
I wasn't payin' attention, can you

Take me in
There's only one place to be now
Lying down on my bed to sleep
Now that I'm tired and bored, can't you

Take cover
It's dangerous being outsider
Nauseous from the car ride
Potholes and bumps in the road, can you

Flag a cab
Transport my ass to the shelter
Book me in a posh motel
Room 62, check in, take back

I really didn't wanna come here
I haven't met anyone nearly as
Smart as you, take back.

06. YUNG & MOORE SHOW (Theme 1) (6:40)
Based on a short loop originally created & recorded by Terry Burrows UK; extended and further overdubbed bass & FX by Moore Feb 2004. YUNG CENTRAL

07. SUBJECTIVITY (2:33)
Composed, performed and recorded by Terry Burrows UK; drum samples by Andy Ward; lead vocals overdubbed by Moore on 22 Feb. From the forthcoming duo album "The Yung & Moore Show".  2004 Best Of list
"Subjectivity"

You tell me "pasa nada"
But that's not good enough today
'Cause everything is moving
But I don't want to play

The molecules are dancing
They're forming into words
They're biting through my armour
They're chewing at my nerves

All that I seem to see is subjectivity
All that I seem to do is
Rearrange the shapes around me
I'm looking for meaning but
Can't figure out a thing
I'm looking for order in
An underworld that's overwhelming.

I'm scanning through the pages
I'm hanging up my noose
My periodic table's
Legs are coming loose

It's an actuarial nightmare
And the odds are looking poor
Of waking up tomorrow
Of getting off this floor.

All that I seem to see is subjectivity
All that I seem to do is
Rearrange the people round me
I'm looking for something but
Significance is out
I've joined up the missing links
But I can't get off the roundabout.

All that I seem to see is subjectivity
All that I seem to do is
Rearrange the world around me
You get tired of waiting while
You're planning The Big Fight
So tear off another sheet from
The toilet roll of everyday life.

Tear off another sheet
Tear off another sheet
Tear off another sheet
Tear off another sheet.

08. SOCIAL STUDIES BUDDIES (5:52)
Backing track by Burrows; drums by Ward; extra electric guitars, lyrics and vocals by Moore, 25 May. Quotes "Mexico". Once upon a time, I ran country. Request it on the Radio Thrift Shop and help bring me back to the Ryman, man.
Someday you might meet a person that you didn't know
You'll listen to them talk til you decide it's time to go
And you may not remember them at all until that night
And that's when you will wish he'd treated you right.

Every now and then a stranger passes you on the street
You can't avoid eye contact though you never really meet
And so you turn around as if you hope that he does too
Well, that's when you will wish he'd cared about you.

Curiosity 'bout everyone we see
Developing new friendships doesn't work for you and me
Animosity 'bout every human being
Social studies, where's my buddies gone?

Last October you came over with your cousin Jake
We tried to have a conversation, but I made the mistake
Of asking him to loan me seven dollars for a cab
And that's when I had wished you'd picked up the tab.

Curiosity 'bout everyone we see
Developing new friendships doesn't work for you and me
Animosity 'bout every human being
Social studies, where're my buddies now?

Cause that was when he slapped my face
And then you put him in his place
My cheek turned red and swollen up
You threw a nickel in his cup
I felt as bad as I could feel
As we jumped in the automobile
Curriculum we chose was
Social Studies, Buddy's bloody nose.

Someday you might meet a person that you didn't know
You'll listen to them talk til you decide it's time to go
And you may not remember them at all until that night
And that's when you will wish he'd treated you right
He'd treated you right
He treats you right
He treated me right.
Pshaw. In a minute! I reckon.
You beat all, you know that?

09. LIGHT SUPREMACY (3:55)
One of four surviving improvisations. Keyboards guerilla-recorded in a showroom of The Guitar Center, Union NJ by Moore and Chris Breetveld, 2 April 2004.

10. BIG MISTAKE (5:10)
This mighty collaboration based on an original instrumental track composed and recorded by Ray Carmen, who first contributed acoustic guitars, maracas & keyboard; then came drums, bass, Mooronicks® guitar tapeloop (from 1978 or 79), lead guitars, spontaneous lyrics and paltry vocal lament by Moore 8-9 April.
I just had to know what your sign was
I just had to know what your age was

Come inside and take me far away from here
I don't wanna stay here anymore
Please somebody take me back to
Madison Tennessee Fantasy

I don't wanna know what your height was
I don't wanna know what your weight was

I don't wanna know
This is impossible

I don't wanna know where I'm going
I don't wanna know where I was then
Take me back to Madison right now, girl
Took me 25 years to find out now
All been a big mistake

I just had to know
All been a big mistake

I just had to know where I'm finished
I don't wanna know why I'm finished
All been a big mistake
Tsall been a big mistake.

Love without life
Life without love
Tell me which one to choose of

If only you'd take my name tag

Day without night
Night without day

The entertainer never learned to entertain
If only I took the blame

Love without life
Life without love
Tell me which one to choose of
It's a no brainer (if I only had a brain)
If only you'd take my name tag

Day without night
Night without day
Tell me which one to think of
The entertainer never learned to entertain
If only I took the blame

Love without life
Life without love
Tell me which one to choose of
It's a no brainer (if I only had a brain)
If only you'd take my name tag

Day without night
Night without day
Tell me which one to think of
The entertainer never learned to entertain
If only you felt the same.

Realized and recorded with Ariel Pink (mouth drums, bass guitars and vocal); guitars, Blicharzbox, synthesizer, lead vocal and seltzer by Moore, March 2004. How about you?

"Hot Cakes and Sausage"

Bake me some hotcakes and sausage
Make 'em nice and brown
Hotcakes and sausage
Flip 'em upside down
I'm so tired of roamin'
Goin' from town to town
Made up my mind now
I'm gonna settle down

So mix 'em with some lovin'
You know the kind I mean
Then serve them with your huggin'
Some coffee and some cream

Hotcakes and sausage
Kiss me honey do
Cause your brand of lovin'
Brought me home to you

Put my pinto saddle down
Said a sad goodbye
Said so long to pals in town
A tear was in my eye
I took a ship for Paris, France
And stopped to see Yvette
I asked her for a bite to eat
SHE GAVE HIM CREPE SUZETTE

Bake me some hotcakes and sausage
Make them nice and brown
Hotcakes and sausage
Flip 'em upside down
I'm so tired of roamin'
Goin' from town to town
Made up my mind now
I'm gonna settle down

I took a train to ancient Rome
I traveled night and day
I got so lonesome for my home
Theresa she would say
Oh cosa dici, oh cosa dici - you are so bella donna
I asked her for hotcake sausage
SHE GAVE HIM RIGATONE

Bake me some hotcakes and sausage
Make them nice and brown
Hotcakes and sausage
Flip 'em upside down
I'm so tired of roamin'
Goin' from town to town
Made up my mind now
I'm gonna settle down

A plane took me to old Berlin
Flew there through the sky
When we landed, I went in
To see what I could buy
I found a big fraulein in town
"Your food is good, no doubt?"
I said "I'd like my hotcakes brown"
SHE GAVE HIM SAUERKRAUT

Bake me some hotcakes and sausage
Make them nice and brown
Hotcakes and sausage
Flip 'em upside down
I'm so tired of roamin'
Goin' from town to town
Made up my mind now
I'm gonna settle down

So mix 'em with some lovin'
You know the kind I mean
Then serve them with your huggin'
Some coffee and some cream

Hotcakes and sausage
Kiss me honey do
Cause your brand of lovin'
Brought me home to you!

16. THE BITE/BEHAVING LIKE A JEW (2:51)
Basic track composed and recorded by Don Campau for RSM collaboration, intended for DC's forthcoming Pen Pals 3 compilation series; double oldschool wordyrappinghood by Krys_O.; lectric lead guitar overdub by Moore April; poems written by Gerald Stern. To be continued.
"The Bite"

I didn't start taking myself seriously as a poet until the white began to appear in my cheek. All before was amusement and affection - now, like a hare, like a hare, like a hare, I watch the turtle lift one horrible leg over the last remaining still and head for home, practically roaring with virtue. Everything, suddenly everything is up there in the mind. All the beauty of the race gone and my life merely an allegory.

"Behaving Like A Jew"

When I got there the dead opossum looked like an enormous baby sleeping on the road. It took me only a few seconds - just seeing him there - with a hole in his back and the wind blowing through his hair to get back again into my animal sorrow.

I'm sick of the country, the blood-stained bumpers, the stiff hairs sticking out of the grilles, the slimy highways, the heavy birds refusing to move; I'm sick of the spirit of Lindbergh over everything, that joy in death, that philosophical understanding of carnage, that concentration on the species.

I am going to be unappeased at the opossum's death. I'm going to behave like a Jew and touch his face, and stare into his eyes and pull him off the road.

I'm not going to stand in a wet ditch with the Toyotas and the Chevy's passing over me at 60 miles an hour and praise the beauty and the balance and lose myself in the immortal lifestream when my hands are still a little shaky from his stiffness and his bulk, and my eyes are still weak and mistyfrom his round fingers and - from his round belly and his curved fingers and his black whiskers and his little dancing feet.

17. DIVORCE COURT (8:38)
Backing track composed, performed and recorded by Yukio Yung UK; lyrics, acoustic lead guitars, middle 8 bass & drums, FX and vocals by Moore, late May. And why is that? Devastating to my case. Objection overruled. Contempt! HEAR IT
She's acting strangely
I'm wearing paisley
Our years of raging love are through

I miss the old days
Long before Coldplay
We lost our eBay password

It's so despairing
She stopped her caring
For Fred Astaire and Ginger too

So scared to be tossed
Out on the street crosswalk
I might get run over

Your honor, I object!

Kid stuff abandoned
Now I'm Ralph Kramden
She found a stand-in substitute

Ears got tinnitus
Here comes arthritis
If you don't think that I'm sick, you're sick

I end up too drunk
She's in a blue funk
Sleepin' by a tree trunk breaks the law

She was my honey
Back when I had money
Now it's not funny paper

When will Chris Sievey
Email R. Stevie?
Send Jim McGreevey Timbuk 3

Oh marriage counselor!
I have an announcement:
Our love has bounced its checkbook

Your honor, I object!

Where do I sign to
Keep my dear wife who
Saved my poor life from homelessness?

Dawn Rollins proved that
Love can be removed, flat out
No approval required

No pokin' 'round her
Hotmail account, sir
In Student Council we don't do that

She claims I said things
Cruel to her heartstrings
Our separate beds sing sad songs

This tape machinist
Can't take his penis
Seriously? This is untrue

This makes my friends mad
Intelligence hath
Turned violence half-crazy

Your honor, I object!

Can't we start over?
Crimson and clover
White Cliffs of Dover, Kent UK

Oh marriage counselor!
I have an announcement:
Our children trounced their textbooks.
Objection overruled.

18. GREGORIAN CHANCE #RSM52 (0:55)
davecastrol1.jpg Featuring The Can, this stomp is David Dreams' personalized greeting card mp3 #2; recorded Swindon, Wiltshire January 2004. Pic by Anne B. The Universal.
In the country state of Tennessee
One cold morning deep in January
A mama cuddled up her newborn babe
Called the little parisher a Robert Stevie.
(That's what she called him: Robert Stevie Moore)

That was long ago in Fifty-Two
He growed up and gave his music to you
So give a cheer and raise a glass or two
Robert Stevie, here's a happy birthday to you!
Stevie, here's a happy birthday to you!
(52. Hmmm!)

19. EVERYTHING (3:12)

Superior alternate remix to appear on the forthcoming duo album "The Yung & Moore Show".
Everything is good
Stay away if you are in a bad mood
Everything is good
Stay away, you're bringing me down

Monday is here
Spring is in the air
Afternoon is clear
Fluffing up my hair

Everything is good
Stay away if you are in a bad mood
Everything is great
Stay away, you're bringing me down

Tuesday it rains
Stay inside and paint
Hear commuter trains
So glad that I ain't

Everything is bad
Stay away if you are in a bad mood
Everything is lousy
Stay away, you're bringing me down

Wednesday you call
Tell me you're alone
In the shower stall
Whatever happened to picture phones?

I wanna see you
I wanna see what you look like
I wanna watch you
I wanna see what you're wearing

Thursday is hot
Wish that I could swim
Hurts me a lot
Seeing you with him

Everything is ehh?
Stay away if you are in a bad mood
Everything's too much
Stay away, you're bringing me down

Friday is cool
Got my spirits high
I know that you'll
Accept our last goodbye

Saturday I'm spaced out
Did not sleep enough
What a week I faced
Had no time for love

Everything is fair
Stay away if you are in a bad mood
Everything is smooth
Stay away, you're bringing me down

Sunday I rest.

22. BIG BEN (Bridge collapse kills 300 toddlers) by Spandek (3:11)
Pisstake 1. Recorded 18 May for forthcoming JD tribute album on Summersteps Records. Discard.
There was an old woman who lived in a shoe
She had so many children she didn't know what to do
Hickory dickory dock, the mouse ran up the clock
Had so many children he didn't know what to do
London bridge is falling down falling down falling down.

Teaser mp3 composed and performed in Forest Hills NY by Lane Steinberg as Noel Coward's Ghostwriter. To surely be continued as intro/verse to a new collaboration song ("Don't Bore Us, Get To The Chorus") on Moore's next disc release. Power of veto.
Tell me what do I do with the rest of my life?
Tell me how is it possible? How is it done?
Tell me how do I deal with this rust on my knife?
Tell me what do I do with the rest of my life?
Ahhhhhh...

"Me So Horny"

Oh, me so horny....Ohh, me so horny....Ohh, me so horny
Me love you long time
Oh, me so horny....Ohh, me so horny....Ohh, me so horny
Me love you long time

Sittin' at home watchin' Arsenio Hall
So I got my black book for a freak to call
Picked up the telephone and dialed the seven digits
Said yo this is Marquis baby, are you down with it?
I arrived at her house, knocked on the door
Not having no idea of what the night had in store
I'm like a dog in heat, a freak without warning
I have an appetite for love 'cause me so horny

Oh, me so horny....Ohh, me so horny...Oh, me so horny
Me love you long time.
Oh, me so horny....Oh, me so horny....Oh, me so horny
Me love you long time

Girls always ask me why I buck so much
I say what's wrong baby doll, with being a mutt?
'Cause my nature is rising and you shouldn't be mad
I won't tell your momma if you don't tell your dad
I know he'll be disgusted when he sees your clothes all messed up
Won't your momma be so mad if she knew you've just been had
I'm a freak in heat, a dog without warning
My appetite is love, 'cause me so horny.

Oh, me so horny....Ohh, me so horny...Oh, me so horny
Me love you love time. Oh, me so horny....Ohh, me so horny....Oh, me so horny
Me love you long time

You can say I'm desperate, even call me perverted
But you'll say I'm a dog when I leave you lost and deserted
I'll play witcha your heart and will show no shame
I'll be blowin' your mind 'cause you're lame to the game
I'm just like that man they call Georgie Puddin' Pie
I'll break their girls' hearts and I make them cry
I'm like a dog in heat, a freak without warning
I have an appetite for love 'cause me so horny.

Oh, me so horny....Ohh, me so horny....Oh, me so horny
Me love you long time
Oh, me so horny....Oh, me so horny....Oh, me so horny
Me love you long time

tailpype.jpg It's true you were alone until you met me
I was the first to dress you up and made you sexy
You tell your parents that we're going out
Never to the movies, just straight to my house
You said it yourself, you like it like I do
Put your arms around me and squeeze me too
I'm a freak in heat, a dog without warning
I have an appetite for love 'cause me so horny.

Oh, me so horny....Ohh, me so horny....Oh, me so horny
Me love you long time
Oh, me so horny....Ohh, me so horny....Oh, me so horny
Me love you long time.

See B01. Isolated acapella vocal booth tracks. Altar ego.
Do you think I found the number?
Do you see if the label is listed?
Is it in STEREO or MONO?

You can go to the Artist Section
And cross reference with the Album in question
Here's the answer: Schwanns.
