Primus Tracks

Easily Charmed By Fools seems to be a product of listening to Pink Floyd's Interstellar Overdrive through the Claypool filter, and Johnny Rocket helps us figure that out by modeling the bass parts and explaining the song's structure. We also get into the lyrics and how the most vulnerable people are the most exploited; all that from a song about Tinder and gun rights, because that makes sense.

Is he really an ancient alien? Does he have cosmic knowledge that could course-correct humanity? No, but that doesn't stop us from discussing the curious case of Boriska Kipriyanovich. Okay, it's not that curious; like most kids, he was a language sponge and his parents filled his head with tall tales of his past lives, and he was bright enough to be able to convincingly speak about it. 

ANYHOO, the song is interesting and both Lennon and Claypool do things they don't normally do, so we set out to find these eccentricities. 

If you're interested in torturing yourself, you can find an extended "interview" with Boriska here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GOJ-WB76Q8U

Kello Gonzalez rejoins us yet again to discuss his affinity for the song South of Reality and what sets it apart in the Claypool catalog. Plus, what are his top ten Rush songs? Perhaps we'll never know, because we became distracted and talked about solar eclipses instead.

Jeff Roscher, newly-minted CLD devotee, retuns to discuss the life and times of Marvel John Jack Whiteside Parsons, as fascinating a 20th-century figure as you'll find. Oh, and we talk about the song that provides a Cliff notes version of his life story, and what makes it another attractive entry into the Delirium's psychedelic catalog. 

Suggested viewing: Blood and Rockets music video.

Suggested reading: Sex & Rockets: The Occult World of Jack Parsons by John Carter.
