Speaker 1: Hi, this is Bobby Brown and welcome to another fucking podcast.
Speaker 2: Kids with your loud music and your Dan Fogelberg, your Zeema,
hula hoops and pac Man video games.
Speaker 3: Don't you see? People today have attention spans that can
only be measured.
Speaker 4: In namo seconds, old legends.
Speaker 1: They just do great black legend and an adamwork from
with a lot of like.
Speaker 3: Hello, Yes, it is part of time. Hello Las Vegas,
Hello world, Hello, my loyal minions. It is good to see.
What's always good to be seeing. It's another refor podcast.
I'm Miszey Presley of the host of the program. Welcome.
It is Thursday night here in beautiful Las Vegas de Badle,
nine to ten pm as I am recording this, and
I have a very special show for you. I went
back to the old intro because why not. I like it,
It's classic, it's part of this. Unless you're listening on YouTube,
then you're not getting the old intro because the old
intro clicks copyright because of end ever After. But that's okay.
You get the new intro that doesn't click any copyrights.
Fun show tonight, I am going to be I bought
it this afternoon. The cheap trick, all washed up CD.
They did not have the vinyl. But actually so this
worked out better for what I'm going to do. But
I think I'm sure with the vinyl you get a
free download you usually do. And I'm going to listen
to this for the first time tonight. I am going
to go track by track, and I'm gonna give you
My immediate reaction after each song is he how are
you gonna be able to do that on the podcast? Well,
it's very very easy. I pause the recording, I play
the song, and then I take out a snippet of
fifteen to twenty seconds. I put it in the podcast,
and then I start talking. Unless you're on the YouTube,
you will not get that snippet of each song because again, copyright,
they're they're they're they're sticklers about that over there, and
uh and me constantly trying to have sources of income
come from this podcast come from my YouTube. I gotta
be careful with that. So there is that. Oh my god,
I almost forgot Ladies and gentlemen, the words of my
close personal friend still call Steve Austin. Got to crack
one for the working man. Ah beer is So that's
a glorious thing. Oh that's great. If you are not
a regular listener or a regular listener to the show,
it has not gone to the Patreon. I suggest you do.
That is Patreon dot com slash Realizy Presley. If you're
listening on on iTunes, you're listening on Spotify, you're listening
wherever other than the Patreon, which is only five dollars
a month. Patreon dot com slash real Lizzy Presley, you're
getting ads and it's rather annoying. Patreon you don't get
any ads. You don't go, you don't get no stinking ads.
Plus you get extra shows. There is one new show
a week on the Patreon that is free that I
open up for the world because you should be able
to get that experience and decide that, oh my god,
I want to be part of the Patreon family, with
the fine folks that are already in the Patreon family.
Planning another zoom meet up on the last one. Who's impromptu,
but we are going to do that. The Listener Drunken
Summit is coming up next month, and I think I
decided on the combatants, So Scotty and Laurie get ready,
I'm gonna pick one more of you guys from the
Patreon family to be part of it, and Dennis the Jew.
Hopefully we'll be part of it. Maybe I can get
Paul Gargano back. We'll see. He's expressed interest in coming
back to do a show here and there. I have
to talk to him anyways, because I have to get
a phone number of the walls of Jericho for just January,
when the new Fozzy single comes out, Jericho said he
would come on. So we got that going for us,
which is nice. What else, folks, if you're gonna be
in Las Vegas for Christmas, come on, just come on
for Christmas. It's cheap out here for Christmas. You can
get in cheap hotels. It's not busy as shit because
the night after Christmas, my fellow kiss tards out there,
and I am one of you. Do not think that
is a disparishing term. I just don't wear the footy pajamas.
Thank you, Tom and Zeus. My Ace Frailey tribute band
called at a tribute to Ace Frail. If you are
looking to book us, now would be a good time
because there's unfortunately Ace is gone and we honor his
music well and we are doing an Ace tribute remembrance
show here in Las Vegas at the Dive Bar. The
tickets are only ten dollars on event bright, fifteen dollars
at the door cash. We are going to be doing
a full hour and a half set of Ace Frehley music,
both with kiss and not in Kiss, and then there
was going to be an all star kiss jam at
the end of the night. And I've already got some
got some people lined up. I'm not going to give
away who those are yet, but yeah, it should be cool.
I'm gonna have a couple of special guests during the
act show as well. Very very glorious Friday, December twenty
sixth at the Dive Bar and fabulous Las Vegas, Nevada.
Hopefully it's warmer than it is right now. It's cold
as shit again. If you are part of the Patrion family,
you heard the episode last night where I was whining
about the cold and complaining about people that complain about
me whining about the cold because oh gross and balls,
you're a Minnesotan. Yeah, that's why I left, because I
don't like winter, and I live in the desert, and
the desert has winter, just not nine feet of snow.
So that's a glorious, glorious thing. What else is coming up, folks?
Of course, We've got the Monsters of Rock Cruise coming up.
We've got Cruise to the Edge coming up. We've got
the Mountain Music Festival coming up. And if you are
if you are in Saint Cloud, Minnesota, if you are
in Minnesota, my hometown, I'm not gonna tell you the date.
I'm not gonna tell you the month, but it's gonna
be in February. Act is coming back and we're going
to be doing a show. And that's all I'm gonna
say about that. Stay tuned on the information. And let's
just say there may be a chance for some local
friends to get up and play as well. We're just
gonna leave it at that. Official announcement coming right around
New Year's maybe a couple of weeks, but but there's that.
So that is what is going on in izy world.

I said, we do have the cheap trick. I'll wash
it up. Record review coming up momentarily. I saw something,
so I'm on hinge, I'm on tender. I'm constantly looking
for trim because I'm a lonely, lonely man. But that's
what happens in this day and age. When do you
have very bad social skills other than when there's a
microphone in your hand. Or maybe it's my ab maybe
it's my fatness. I don't know, I don't know. Maybe
it's the fact that I like extremely out of my
league women. You know the kind of girl that she's
on your arm, dude, looking go it must be for charity.
There's no fucking way. You've gotta be kidding me. No shit,
Look that I appreciate that. And something that I've been
noticing on hinge girls that want you to shit. They
just think they can grab food off of your plate.
I do not agree with this. I am anti tapas.
Speaker 5: Joey doesn't share food.
Speaker 3: It's true, it's true. I am not a food sharer. Yes,
I will give up a couple fries like any respectable
human being will do. But I am anti tapas. Get
your own appetite. Tapas is just overpriced appetizers. That is
all it is. Hey, order a bunch of appetizers for
the table. No, no, no, I mean I'll take food
that's given to me. If somebody orders something for the table, yeah,
I'll indulge. But if I'm ordering it, If I am
ordering it, Joey doesn't sharefond not happening. I'm sorry. Keep
your grubby paws off of my plate. Even if there's
a chance of a blow job involved, then maybe you
can have a couple fries I saw. I do not
know if this is real, but I also saw this
on Hinge in some gal's profile, saying that in Oklahoma,
it is illegal to take a bite out of somebody
else's hamburger. And I tell you this, I applaud this law.
This is brilliant. This is good. You do not die
in to other people's food. He snorts, You know where
I can score some Ah shit. I'm sorry I played
the wrong clip, but I do like that one.
Speaker 5: Joey doesn't share food.
Speaker 3: There it is there, it is. It's that simple. It's
maybe it's because I'm poor, but you think being poor
you would want to help other people and give up
some food that is on your plate. I just don't know.
I don't know. It's different. Hey try this. But usually
when a guy is saying, hey, try this, he wants
you to try it because it's brutal. There's no reason
for that. It's nasty. It's brutal. Try this. It's gross.
You gotta try this. It's horrible, it's brutal. Is he
just being nice or is it nasty? If a girl
asks you to try it, oh my god, this is
so good. Try this. Yeah, I'll give it a shot,
but for the most part, keep your paws off my plate.
I've bitten fingers off. I have a system, and that
system is called Izzy getting Fatter. And I don't know
how much longer I can go with this bit, So
I think we should just stop. I think that we
need to dive into Cheap Trick. I've got the sum
bitch with me, I've got beers with me. We are
going to drink beer. We are going to listen to
Cheap Trick. And if you want to hear my kiss
recap of the Kiss Weekend, the Kiss Tart Fast here
here in Las Vegas, go over to the Patreon Patreon
dot com slash Realizzie Presley. It's the free show for
this week. You can go there and listen to that,
listen to the whole experience. And I still need some
more of that Norwegian chocolate because I ate it all
because you know, fat guy problem. So let us dive
into the brand new Cheap Trick record. It is called
All Washed Up. It was released on November fourteenth, today
is November twentieth. I just bought it today one because
I may or may not forgot the exact data was
coming out. I was trying to get a member of
Tea Trip on this show. I was in touch with
their pr PR people and they tried to make it happen.
But who knows, Maybe it'll happen in the future. They're
not really doing many interviews right now. I think he said.
The only one that's doing interviews is Tom. But you're
not really seeing much, so maybe it's not me. It
is what it is.
Speaker 1: So.
Speaker 3: April twenty ninth, twenty twenty five, Cheap Trick lead vocalist
Robin Zander revealed in an interview with John Thompson of
Tampa Bay Music News, the band's next album was nearing
the end of recording and production processes. Off from Wikipedia,
so it's gotta be true. It was tentively titled All
Washed Up, a reference to the band band's nineteen eighty
album All Shook Up. Okay. August twenty second, the lead single,
twelve Gates was released, and I remember when that came out,
and I was excited. You know why, because it's just
like when the ACDC record came out, you know what.
It sounds like. That sounds like ACDC. This sounds like
Cheap Trick, and I'm very excited. About this now. Like
I said, the only song that I have heard off
this record is that lead single twelve Gates, which I
really really enjoyed. I know there is another single out
Alreadius called the Riff I Won't Quit. I have not
listened to it yet, just for this purpose, just so
I could do this. Let's see. All tracks are written
by Nielsen, Tom Peterson and Robin Xander, except twelve Gates
where Robert written with Robin Taylor Xander and A Long
Way to Wish Dah written by Jerry Dale McFadden and
Robert Reynolds. This is your track listing number one, All
Washed Up, Number two, All Wrong, Long Gone. That's a
fucking name. All Wrong, Long Gone. Number three The Riff
that Won't Quit. Now keep in mind this is the CD.
They did not have the vinyl at Zea Records when
I went and bought this. But I'm okay with it
because I could bring this in the car. Not that
I couldn't, but you know what I mean. Track number four,
Bet It All, track number five, The Best Thing, track
number six, twelve Gates, They afore mentioned number seven, Bad Blood,
track number eight, Dancing with the Band, Track number nine,
Love Gone track number ten, A Long Way to a
Staff and track number eleven Wham Boom Bang. They do
have a long list of guest performers on this record,
highlighted by of course Dax Nelson playing drums. Because Dax
is not an official member of the band, I believe
the only members of the actual legal members of the
band are Rick Nielson, Tom Peevis and Robin Xander and
Bunny Carlos. And Bunny does not tour. Bunny sits back
and collects checks, but he still has his percentage of
the band, so that would be a good real and
Robin Taylor Xander, who does play with them live as well.
Dax of course plays plays the drums live now. Robin
Sailor Xander got some of those weird rock star kids
names going on here, and really nothing nobody else that
really pops out. Chris Lord lg Elgee, however you say it,
I don't know, but I say we should get into this.
I have a fresh beer, and the great thing is
while I'm listening to these songs and then commenting on them.
While I'm listening to them, I can go grab another
beer if needed. So here we go, and you are
going to hear a quick snippet of the song. You're
not gonna hear the whole thing on YouTube. You're not
gonna hear any of it. So there's that. That is
what it is. And this is the first track, the
title track, All Washed Up?
Speaker 5: What that rip.
Speaker 2: That?
Speaker 3: Obviously you just heard eighteen seconds of that song. I'm
not going to play the whole song because I want
you guys to enjoy it and get a taste of
it and go out and buy it. Why Because it's
fucking cheap trick. The song is called all Oh shit,
cancel that. The song is the first tracks called all
Washed Up. It grooves, it rocks. I could have done
one of those those those videos, the reaction videos where
you watch people listen to something for the first time.
How those things get so many views is fucking beyond me.
And I know people that do it, and God bless them,
and I hope they're making money off of it. But
the first song on this record, it rocks. It grooves,
and it sounds like cheap trick. A different cheap trick,
but it still sounds like cheap trick. I like this song.
I approve of this song. I am all in already
on the record. Now, let's move on to the second track,
which is.
Speaker 2: Called all Wrong, Long Gone.
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, just you know, just a small clip. I
don't want to give away the whole freaking song. You
heard Robin come in. It's this has a very eighties
vibe to it. I did like that the ending of
the song was a hard end. There was not a
fade out on this song. Robin Zander at his age.
The fact that he can still belt it out like
that and do it live that This isn't tricks of
the record trade.
Speaker 6: This isn't uh whatever the fucking the the the recording
program is.
Speaker 3: Pro Tools. This isn't fixed with Pro. This is Robin
Zander fucking bellering it out. Could you hear it?
Speaker 2: No?
Speaker 3: Because I'm not gonna play the whole fucking song. Could
I have played a different clip? Probably, but sorry about it,
by the record or go listen to it. You have
your streaming services, go listen to it and you'll hear
what I said. No, I like this song. It's a
laid back eighties vibe to it. I really just doesn't
have the seventies rawness and I don't really expect a
lot of that from this record just because it's twenty
twenty five. The seventies was a long seventies was nineteen
seventy five? Was fifty years ago? Ugh, gotta heap being old. Anyways,
let is let us move onto the next track, which
is called The Riff That Won't.
Speaker 4: Quite.
Speaker 3: You know, I'm three songs in and I am all
in this. I'm loving this record so far. This uh
and you know the song the Riff that Won't Quit.
It had to have come from somebody playing a riff
and going, dude, this rift doesn't quit or whoever heard it,
go dude, that's a riff and it won't quit. It's
got a very jammy feel to it. It's got a
very groovy feel to it. When you get to the solo,
there's a little uh to me, there's a little throwback
to gonna raise hell feel in it a little bit.
This This is This is a great song. This is
actually the current single as well, so you can go
find it wherever you can. I'm sure it's on YouTube.
I mean, you know it's not on fucking you know,
rock radio because God forbid. But yes, great song and
I am looking forward to the next one, which is
called bet It all. Yeah, I'm not a fan of
the song. Just see, every cheap trick record is gonna
have that one weird cheap trick song and sometimes they're cool,
sometimes they're not. And pure honesty, pure straightforward, this is
not this is for me. This is going to be
a skipper. I'll be skipping this song next time I
listened through it now. It's just it just doesn't grab me.
We all have those songs. Let us move on to
track number five, The Best.
Speaker 1: You know.
Speaker 3: I am a sucker for a good ballad and after
bed at All, I was really hoping they could bounce
back with something great and they did. Like I said,
I'm a sucker for a great ballad. I think this
is a great ballad that showcases the amazing, amazing talent
of Robin Xander. Holy that this sounds like classic Robin.
The song itself is good. It's not the flame, but
it's never nothing's ever going to be the flame. It's
a it's a nice heartfelt song, well written, well put
together song, and Robin Xander absolutely shines on this song.
This is definite thumbs up on this one. And now
we move on to the very first single, which I
would hope that we've all heard more than once twelve Gates.
I love this song. I do love this song very
a laid back, mellow, cheap trick song that sounds like
cheap Trick. It's great, it's great, and we've all heard it.
I should hope we have heard it. I mean, it
was the first thing out in August, and it's great.
I don't know what else to say about the song,
but dig alright, goddamn dig it viz very flippy a
little bit. If you guys aren't familiar with Flip, go
check out Flip fl i Pp. They opened a lot
for Cheap Trick in the nineties. Great band, My second
favorite band of all time. Check flip out. If you
like this song, you'll dig Flip All right, let us
move on to the next track that is called bad Blood,
another mid tempo cheap Trick song that I do like.
If you want my love, you got the same kind
of tempo that we came to grow to have Cheap
Trick two as they started to mature into the eighties,
late seventies, early eighties, And it's good. I like it.
Xander Shines. I think that's the one thing that you're
gonna find on all of these tracks. As Robin Xander
just shines. I like this song. I like the solo.
I don't know what else to say about, but yes,
I like this one. That's good. It's good, it's good.
This album so far is definitely not a full blown
cheap trick rocker, but that does not mean it's bad.
Let us move on to the next track, which is
track number eight, Dancing with the band straightforward rock and roll.
Speaker 2: Uh.
Speaker 3: Kind of felt like they rewrote that seventy song, but
that's okay. Bands rewrite their own songs all the time.
Like I said, straightforward rock and roll, backbeat, boogie woogie
for you boys, can't go wrong. Dude. It's that it
sounds like a cheap trick song, and that's what you
want cheap trick to sound like. Let us move on
to the next song. And I'm sorry, I'm not giving
you in depth, full blown blah blah blah blah. You
don't need all that shit. Good, yes, bad, No, this
is what it sounds like.
Speaker 5: Here we go, moving on. Love Gone.
Speaker 3: Okay. So I cheated a little bit on that one,
and I gave you a little bit deeper into the song.
Just so you can hear the tempo change another mid
tempo not the tempo change, but like the change from
the beginning into the full band. It's look another mid
tempo cheap trick song that sounds like fucking cheap trick.
I don't know what else you want. You know, you're
not gonna get a full album of full blown early
seventies cheap trick. It is what they are now, is
what they've been since the late seventies early eighties, and
there's nothing wrong with it, you know, because it's goddamn
cheap trick and they do it well. I like this song,
A cool little slide solo in there. Always dig a
nice little slide solo. It's good. It's good. I like it.
It's good. So here we move on track number ten,
a long way and I'll washdown long listed today. So,
as I said earlier, pretty much every cheap Trick record
as a song or two that sounds like a weird
cheap trick song. The other one on this record that
we heard it was called bet at All. I did
not like it. I was not a fan. Now this one,
on the other hand, it's you know, it's your mid
tempo cheap trick song, but it's got a cool vibe
do it and it turns into a pretty normal, mid
tempo cheap trick song at some point. Of course, we
didn't get there because I'm not going to play the
whole song for you, so I don't want to get
in travel. Well, plus, I want you to buy the record.
I want you to listen to the whole record, and
I hope that's what this experiment does, gets you to
listen to the whole record. I dig this song. It's
it's got a weird it's like I said, it's that
weird cheap trick song, but it's a cool, weird cheap
trick song, cool cool, It's just got a vibe to
it that I dig that I dig overall, I'm loving
this record other than the bettered all song. All right,
it is time for the last track called wham Boom Bang.
Speaker 1: I got a big fat screen so you can see
my baby's gone at night.
Speaker 3: Well, you know they love them some Beatles, and there
it is. There's your there's your cheap trick Beatles song
called wam Boom Bang, and I dig it. I dig it.
Fun way to close out the record. It's just it's
just it's fun. It's fun. Not every album needs to
have a slam dam banger to close it out or
that huge ballad to close it out. It's good. Look,
it's fun and I like it. Total length of the
album thirty nine minutes and fifty six seconds, eleven total tracks.
The only track I didn't like was bad at all.
I think every track had its own little quirk and
cheap trick fun part. It's a cheap trick record. I
don't know what else to say about it. It's good.
I like it. Is it in color? No, it doesn't
have to be. It's nearly fifty years later. It's it's good.
It's good. Get out and buy this. If you like
cheap trick, you will like it. And if you don't
like it, that's fine. Produced by Julian Raymond on the
BMG label. It is out now, Get out, buy it,
download it, or however you get it. Man, get the vinyl.
I wish I had the vinyl. Maybe I'll get the
vinyl at some point. I don't know. I had the
vinyl for the last one, or was it the one
before it, I don't know. There's a few years ago.
Oh my god, I'm fucking tired. I'm sorry. I took
a nap earlier. And if you ever taken a nap
where you dreamt about taking another nap or dreamt you
were napping, it was fucking weird. It was cool. Cheap
Trick all washed up. I highly recommend this record and
this is no bullshit. I listened to these songs for
the first time before talking about him on the show,
and I went track by track. That's what you got there.
It is Enjoy it, love it, and go for it.
Go for what I don't know. Go to the record
store and buy Cheap Trick. And as you can hear
