Hopefully intelligent, upbeat, pop rock - plus multiple other genres and rabbit holes I enter
The band is ME - plus any collaborators I can convince to come along for the ride. I love the process of song writing and production - I hope some others get some enjoyments - or chuckles out of these tunes.
Lyrics
VINYL
Ron Tintner and Z. Mulls © 2007
Hauling off to college with a coupla’ milk crates full of thirty-threes
Unpacking my LPs
Studying the liner notes with long-haired beauties lying on the floor
Putting on side four
Was a time when even album art was consequential
Images and words concealing meaning and potential
Up till three AM discussing matters existential
Ooooooooooh yeah
Vinyl… needle’s in the groove
Vinyl… get's you in the mood
Vinyl… watch that needle move
Oh, oh, oh, yeah,,,, that’s vinyl
Stack them on the spindle, watch them drop and turn the bass up to the max
Count off your favorite tracks
Watch the label spinning, read it upside-down and sideways, you're the star
Playing air guitar
Call your girlfriend over singing words that are flirtatious
Hoping Van McCoy will help you Hustle ‘round the bases
Hear the record skip when you're just getting down to cases
Oh, oh, oh yeah
Vinyl… needle's in the groove
Vinyl…
Vinyl… watch that needle move
Oh, oh, oh, yeah,,,, that’s vinyl
Columbia House, Ten for a penny Plus shipping
Strawberry Fields, The track makes you feel like you’re tripping
Barry White… Marvin Gaye
What’s Goin’ On,,, Slip away
Was a time when music wasn't megabytes of digital debris
Stacked up on your PC
Was a time when music wasn't stuck behind your headphones on the street
Who're you gonna meet?
Was a time when music had the crackle of vibration
Filling in the details of your dangling conversation
Falling trees don't make a sound in isolation
Vinyl… needle's in the groove
Vinyl…
