heard this song the other day and reminded me of the Pub Rock scene growing up.
Almost every pub had a band playing songs like this every weekend when I was growing up.

And Australia's unofficial National Anthem, if you're at a pub and want to find an Aussie play this song and wait for them to start singing along

and one of my favourites love Bon's intro "this song is about a big fat woman from Tasmania"

while im still in a reminiscing mood. this song was about a road in Perth Bon used to have to always drive down after gigs. Of course he would have been drunk and probably lucky to make it home.

RIP Brian Wilson. Studio genius. Anyone the least bit interested in the Beach Boys should check out the documentary on Disney plus. Was an interesting watch.

My favorite thing about Wilson is him being obsessed with "shortenin bread" and thinking it was the best song of all time.

I had never heard that version of shortening bread. Honestly that was kind of awesome. I loved the low end sound with a lot fuzz. not quite sure what they use to get that sound but I'm sure they spent a lot of time on it in the studio. Curious if that's during the wrecking ball days
