and all that kind of stuff right now, so U
But and Myke's wife denied to see it too. Let's
give her a you know why, because she has to
put up with him, and I know it's brutal with
sending a letter to the Vatican when the time comes
to canonize her. Anyway, So mac is, we've known each
other for a long time. You're a musician, You've been
a musician ever since you're a little kid, right, basically,
and been in a lot of bands. You're on MTV.
You want a contest on MTV at one point, right,
what was that like cocin Hookers rock and roll?
Speaker 3: Sorry, when was that?
Speaker 5: Eighty two?
Speaker 3: Wow?
Speaker 2: The band was Limbo Race, that's correct.
Speaker 6: Yeah, kind of post punk, kind of angry, loud fast,
you know, kind of deal.
Speaker 2: What were you wear Angry at the world?
Speaker 5: Yeah, okay, lack of money too.
Speaker 3: So we were on the show and it was aired
and everything else right on TV?
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, yeah, probably three o'clock some Sunday morning once.
Speaker 2: But you met Nina Blackwood. She lived in newby Port
from that's right, yeah, said so, but you've been in
a number of bands. Uh, you can play the drums
and guitar, which is a very very rare in bass.
But all I can think is Dave Grohl can do it,
and he plays guitar too. Yeah, he's in Full Fighters. Yeah.
I know he played drums, so, but that's usually people
drummers can't play guitars, you know. Yeah, So anyway, so
I don't know even if it's not I tell you
the truth. But at one point, way back when we
recorded an album called Sky Club and that was the
name of the album, and so it was. It was
mock myself, Omnie Castinell, saxophone player, great Guy, and Chris
Billius was the producer and piano player, and we had
a few guest musicians on. Richie Kennedy, Lois's brother, played
a number of them, and Matt Maley from Tommy Crows
plays based on the number of them. So that Bracon
came out.
Speaker 5: And do you remember when we started working on that.
Speaker 2: Boy don't. We don't want to mention dates on here,
but it was a while ago. Yeah, it was, yes,
and to do it, we should through a whole show
on that. But what we used to do, we we
could it in this. We did them, not the demos,
but the preliminary recording in this guy's house and he
is an old house and he he would be in
like the control room and to get into the recording
studio you had to go through a hallway and then
into another room so he couldn't see us. We'd go
in there and we'd be in there for two three hours.
We wouldn't see them, we'd hear them. You know, you're
not supposed to drink in the recording the studio. So
when we would do the instruments, usually we would do
it during the day. We'd have double sessions. I remember
we did that a lot, and do the instruments during
the day and you have to be really on top
of it, especially me to do it. But then at
night we do the vocals really loaded, and I know
that a lot of the vocals on that album. You know,
you run to the influence when drunk, all right, So
that album came out really good. It was kind of
a throwback to the fifties at Progressive and at the time,
we were all the different angles of this at the time.
I mean it goes back to a guy named Patrick Maraz.
That's where we should say is because this guy used
to play keyboards and yes and the Moody Blues. We
got to know him when he was doing a solo tour.
I kind of signed Don Volunteer to be his pr guy,
and then he got signed to a company in London
called Voiceprint Records. And the thing with him was that
he had had so many record companies, He had had
so many contracts it was impossible to bring them all together,
you know. I mean really there was probably twelve different
Crystalist was one of them. He we coud on Lamborghini Records,
and everyone who signed a contract got a Lamborghini. That
so anyway, and then he was on Atlantic, he was
on whatever the Moody Blues label was. So but these
people and they would always say to me, well, why
can't he come out with the greatest hits album? But
it was just like too complicated legal wise, but Voiceprint
for whatever reason, it don't work that way through it,
and they started up putting out other stuff by him.
I got to know the owner. I said to you,
I think if we recorded a couple of songs and
we played it for this guy, I think he'd go
us a contract. And that's kind of what happened, right,
And then we wound up down and then came out
and we finished at Bristol Recruiting Studios in Boston, and
that's why it sounds so good, and because it's a
very famous place and they were nice to us there
and so anyway, so the CD came out, it did well,
did a lot of promotion for art. This is right
around the time that you were downloading songs for a dollar.
Speaker 3: Remember that I do remember that, And I also remember
them downloading him for nothing. Yeah, well you know about
napster and yeah, all that and all these other things.
Speaker 2: So we signed a contract with a company in LA
called Cleopatrick Records and basically sold way O soulds to them.
But you know, it was a record deal and they
put it out and probably six months later I started
getting residual checks. I'm going, you're kidding me because they
were downloading this one song called Kenny hamm Me by
Mike and the mccannics cover song, and that lasted for
about a year and not really big worldy checks. But
you know, I was always I think we were always
ahead of the game. I never cashed them.
Speaker 3: And and then in that you still haven't cashed, no,
and that it's.
Speaker 2: It's only like a few hundred bucks. But but I
thought they were making a mistake. I didn't want to
cash and they have to give the money back something.
But then in that and then from that second to
the next it was streaming okay, And then that was
the end of that whole downloading thing. Nscd's everything. So
now time goes by and I'm just on Spotify. Just
a month ago and there's the album on Spotify. And
we didn't put it on there exactly. Cleo Patrick must
have put it on in there. And I look at
this one song that had been had had twenty thousand
downloads all right for buck each they over the years
had already accumulated ten thousand downloads. So people liked that song.
Too bad. We didn't have it tonight, but you can
go on you can go on YouTube. It's mcloney sky Club.
It's called Silent Running. Can you hear me? It's a
good song. I mean, you know, I remember working on it.
Took us a while to do it. But so anyway,
after all that happened, we said, well, I said to
directing company, you know, you always have to give them
a second record. So that's what we started. And I
thought that it'd be good because we're doing the UFO
Show and everything that we do a bunch of songs
about UFOs. Do you remember any of this mock you
may tell me, storry, Right, So we started a second album,
and you know, I guess we finally finished it and
we're going to release it, you know, sometime soon. I
was just talking to Chris bill Yas, who was the
producer at Crystal Records the other day, What.
Speaker 3: Song on sky Club did you want to listen to?
Speaker 2: We could listen to. It's called Silent Run? Can you
do that? All right? So when we start off, uh,
when we start to start this show off, so this
we're gonna be talking about the Sky's Club songs, how
we put them together and stuff like that. And I'm
not doing this solely for tax purposes. But okay, here
we go. That's the I R s already my timing.
Speaker 3: That's Mike for making the mechanics look at.
Speaker 2: For his three cents of play. Okay, I want to
give it a shot. Ready, there we go, Take.
Speaker 7: The children and yourself and hide out in the cellar.
But now the fine we'll be close in here. Don't
believe in church state and everything they tell you.

Speaker 11: Can you heard? Can you hear me your name?
Speaker 9: Can you hear me running? You hear me coming?
Speaker 12: You?
Speaker 11: Can you?
Speaker 8: Did you hear me running? Hear me coming?
Speaker 2: Wow? Oh yeah, there's a trip down memory lane. A
lot going on there, man. I am lavish production, yes,
very lavish, you know, through all the wires and everything.
I'm not sure that it's I mean, your voices when
you hear the original wracky your voice is like really
out there.
Speaker 3: You know, which is really good?
Speaker 2: And this this is live drums too, which is I
mean real drums. And I just remember from.
Speaker 3: There you say real drums, you mean brought him in there,
and brought him in there and played the take.
Speaker 2: Yeah I'm not during the take along went the tape. Yeah,
I think we have a click. We had to click
the beginning. Yeah. So the story of Vinmony is too
bad man, because he's a great guy. He died about
a year ago, and he was a brother from New Orleans.
And this other guy who ran the studio, Roger knew
him and we were just planning to this album, the
previous album, you know, yes, Moody Blues whatever, and he
just said, one day, you know, you should have a
guy play sax on this. I know this saxophone player.
And he came in, he played, and I just remember
everything kind of changed then because it was was like,
all of a sudden, this sounded really good, you know,
because he was so good.
Speaker 3: Oh.
Speaker 2: But I remember going in the room with him, and
I was very cool at this point, and I told
him what to play on a keyboard because it was
in my mind. I remember running said, well, you know,
you know, you don't really do that with these guys,
you know, because you play with Paul Mccarttney and the Eagles,
you name it.
Speaker 3: How did you describe what you wanted him to play?
Speaker 2: Just there was a keyboard in there and I played
the notes. And then afterwards we had just met him
that day and he said, you know you and something
like you made me work harder than I've worked before.
Because from that point on you realize, okay, you leave
a place for how many to play and then he
just goes in there and play it, and then you
have like four things you have to pick from. Which
is the thing?
Speaker 14: You know?
Speaker 2: Because he was he was just that good. He was
a great guy. He was one of these guys you know,
he'd walk in the room and it would just be
you know, I don't know, a body or something. He
was just a very gregorious guy. Had a lot of
great stories. And like I said, he was with Elvis
Cussole I think the longest for like ten years. He
was in his band and the play with McCartney the Eagles.
He was from New Orleans. He was you know, definitely
with those guys. But a funny guy and a great guy,
really good guy. You know who was his name again,
Omedie Castane And he you know, he walks in the
room and I'm sorry, but you know, Mac and I
prow the whitest guys on the planet, would you agree with?
And you know somehow it kind of works. So yeah, yeah,
so too bad, really really good guy, good guy. So anyway,
that was the first album. That's how that all happened.
And then you know, it had those downloads and now
we see that, you know, ten thousands people have downloaded.
I'll listen to it on Spotify, so uh, that's good.
So anyway, so if we made that album, we're making
our second album, and that's when we said, well, when
do we make it all about UFOs or UFO We
laid it stuff and we probably did that about a
year after that, maybe a year or two after we
started that, And that was right down. That was all
down at Bristol Studios in Boston, and I don't know,
we had a lot of fun down there, was you know,
there was always anytime we do it, there was always
something going on there. The cool thing about it is
there were people just walking through the place, you know,
trombone players and violin players and you know, singers and stuff,
and you could just pull them in and they would,
you know, sing on it and stuff. So Steah Berkeley
School of Music was right across the street.
Speaker 3: So there's a lot of people remembers of the Boston
Pops just drop by and trying.
Speaker 2: To It was I don't know about the West and
pots and practice. There was a guy on one of
the songs. His name was Mohammed Ala Trash. You can't
forget it, right, like, he's six foot five here from
He's from Gaza and uh his parents this is before
they had all these problems obviously, and his parents had
him take violin lessons and then they bombed it and
his violin teacher went back to Sweden. So he switched
to cello. That's all he knew how to play cello.
He was great, Yeah, yeah, and yeah so yeah, right,
all right, Mark, hang on.
Speaker 5: He's right.
Speaker 3: There's never enough cello, so yeah, these days.
Speaker 2: And I think he played. He was a backup guy
for not the Pops, but you know, one of them.
I don't know what it was, but anyway, he was good.
So anyway, So for this second album called Uphology, we
as I said, we put together some cover songs but
also has some original songs about Ufoo. So the first
one is called hypnotize and it's is a cover by
Pleetwood Mac put it out years ago. It's a I
think the way we did is you're going to agree
with a completely different song, but you know, the bones
are still there and I just remember doing it the
regular way, and then Chris was able to put it
in you know, his magic machine down there when he
came out, you almost like a dance thing. But the
singing is great, guitar playing is great, so it's a
good way to kick off the album. So without further ado,
this is hypnotized from Skyclumbs coming out and called you
follow please one one.
Speaker 15: Bown down down down conn track down, turn.
Speaker 13: Turn down, buck down bun bun cown connun down boundown
cown concownwn down, Downtown.
Speaker 12: Out.
Speaker 16: It's the same kind of story that seems to come
down from a long ago, and I think that two
friends haven't conte and sometimes.
Speaker 5: It might be done on thelone, which is why at.
Speaker 16: Least have the play, because there ain't no rated. Your
imagination seems.
Speaker 11: Like a dream.
Speaker 9: No, it's not a beating.
Speaker 17: The question is able to ask if they been is gone.
I remember talking about hom Helen had.
Speaker 9: A strange drange palm. You see the.
Speaker 17: Side feel like class of course no Longe roll.
Speaker 11: In a many mans pair.
Speaker 14: Never made that plad and I begets what shir.
Speaker 3: See he's trying to bring him.
Speaker 17: They say this is the place county missing or a
man in five of the mountains and hills.
Speaker 5: Anyone he's there, played from the collevision and he DEVI did.
Speaker 9: Ninety's a meeting this question hunt asked for school or so.
Speaker 11: Not? B mad and bore you time.
Speaker 12: Means like a dream.
Speaker 14: He attatattattta.
Speaker 11: And state stattatt state stattattattattt.
Speaker 2: Wow, that's a trip.
Speaker 3: Who's the You're on the vocals in this? Yeah, you're
the vocals.
Speaker 9: Who was that?
Speaker 14: You know?
Speaker 2: There was one of those things there was at Bristol
when she was walking around and she came in saying
the hommony.
Speaker 5: You remember, I'd get tracks without vocal and I do
the vocal at home.
Speaker 6: Yeah, we send it in the pipes and wailed it
as they say, right, Yeah, pretty much.
Speaker 2: It was at the time there was a Bristol studio
had this an in house girl being named Jada, and
they used to sing the national anthemate Patriots games and
stuff like that when they were Yeah, they were and
just for beautiful girls, and and one day one was
walking around and say, hey, can you come in and
sing this pot And that's how it was there, you know.
So Susan, that's the first time you heard that song, right?
Speaker 4: I think it's amazing. I love Skyclub anyways. So it's
got a real catchy tune. I just I think it's
it's great.
Speaker 3: Reminds me of a Dick Clark's rated record on Is
It Going On? That was Hard Day's Night by the Beatles.
Though we just think of that. Well, I can't really
dance to it. Yeah, I think it's got a good
beat and we can dance to it.
Speaker 2: But you've heard it for the first time. What do
you think of it?
Speaker 3: But this fantastic the mix? How did you get all
the effects in that mix? How many how many attempts
did it take to really get that sound you were
looking for?
Speaker 2: Chris was a real wizard, Yeah, yeah, was the producer.
Speaker 3: He but the source source songs where they come from.
Speaker 2: Just these playing like a demo, you know, and then
just taking it and twisting it. Yeah, did you have
a melotron in there or something? Just sound of the keyboards. Yeah,
I know, I look back on the keyboards. If I
could do it again, I think I would probably, you know,
kind of go a little more down downloading them. But
if you notice that whenever, whenever, because I'm not a
musician at all, but anyone can play these synthesizers to
make them sound like violins and stuff. And what I really,
what I realized earlier is whenever Amedy is playing, if
you can play something behind that, it makes it sound
really just makes it sound what you're playing good because
he's so good, you know, so you hear me in
the background when he was doing like solos and stuff
like that.
Speaker 3: Who were you doing in the background?
Speaker 2: You just playing the like the keys like the melotron,
or it's not literally the melotron, but actually what it
is was I got a I got a Corg Triton,
which is worth about five grand. I got it on
the reduced price, and and I get a Yamaha one
hundred dollars, a personal keyboard that has like come Home,
Bill Bailey and stuff. I already entering. But the string
sound in that was so good that we use that
a lot.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, retro sometimes, Yeah.
Speaker 2: The whole idea is kind of like a little retro now.
So so yeah, so that was hymnotized, and so what's next?
Speaker 3: Who's the player in there?
Speaker 2: Omity? Casting outmy cast? He would tell us stories that
I can't repeat now, but he would, he would. He
was very funny and he liked everyone except the one
oddist that he played with. He says, Paul mc and
Paul and Lynda McCain with like the nicest people you've
ever ever met, treated the band great, everything was first class.
Got a problem and.
Speaker 5: That point? Are they vegan yet?
Speaker 2: You know?
Speaker 3: Yeah?
Speaker 2: I think so right around the time they were this
is like around Junior's farm and Myas and Maas and
Venus in that era, you know, the wings and play
with a lot of other people. But he said the
one person he couldn't stand was Paul Simon. Really he
was just like a little a hole. Yeah, treated everyone badly,
and you know it was just I couldn't get over
that Napoleon complex, you know. So but anything, you know,
it's too I kind of miss him. He was just
fun to hang around with and yeah, yeah, a good guy.
How many casts to know? So what's next? There? Around
the hip parade?
Speaker 3: There well we got Roswell two O seven.
Speaker 2: Okay, so is that five percent? Say five percent?
Speaker 3: It does?
Speaker 2: What's the It was just sped up five percent? Okay.
The only thing I remember about this song is I
I had bought this kind of studio thing online where
you can make up your own music and punch it in.
It only worked once, but I got the like basics
for this song, and I'd given you, I think, the
whole lyrics. But I don't know whatever happened. But so
Cherson I rea at the studio one day and and
a guy came in. His name was just a rapper
named n I l Nil next in line and looked
like mova on. So he comes in and and he's
just kind of getting a tour of the studio and
then he leaves, and I just look at Chris and
I said, you know, what wouldn't be funy if we
had that guy sing this song, you know, like a
hip hop guy. So he came in and he did
it like one of two takes. He was were you
the other day? And you remember?
Speaker 14: No?
Speaker 2: And he was the whole. He was the whole, the
whole thing.
Speaker 14: Man.
Speaker 2: He had that Russian kind of hat on. He really
he had a little anthemaged and and he just hit it.
He nailed it.
Speaker 3: Yeah, I love people.
Speaker 2: So we took this kind of frog song and we
had a rapper on it, and then Lax says sings
the verses and then plays the guitar on it. Richie
also plays the guitar on it. And then for the
guitar song, I remember, we're figuring, trying to figure out
what to do, and somehow Chris did something and he
makes the guitar sound like an alien talking. So and
the story is this roswell story told from the alien's
point of view. That's what the whole song is about.
So you want to.
Speaker 3: Appear that forty five on the turntable and you know
sixteen ready?
Speaker 9: Yeah, I was talking to a.
Speaker 13: Friend of mine here another fellow would travel look on
in time. He said, our old friend number eleven SI
back in forty seven.
Speaker 9: They found his body.
Speaker 13: They said, what, They checked his boss, They checked his head, okay,
They locked him in a use flocks and then they
lees to the bots, got lost, thirty kids went flying
a flash. Everyone forgot his crash. Then things got a
little messy him when they talk to.
Speaker 8: That guy named chess.
Speaker 13: He said he's seen his face, this distinguished man from
out of space and face.
Speaker 11: When he saw his black guys.
Speaker 15: He knew that rainy guy.
Speaker 12: He call.
Speaker 15: Now to get it too, chests.
Speaker 9: You feel Medo behind.
Speaker 13: It wasn't leven really because I heard him back here
in forty seven.
Speaker 9: I never went back to heaven.
Speaker 8: And then that guy's wondering why if he.
Speaker 13: Knew what it's like to die and where what it's
all right now, can because he's still with the somehow,
I'm ut to the story worth my my my friend.
Speaker 15: Who fell to earth.
Speaker 9: He used to sell among the stars, you would its.
Speaker 11: Game or candy box, but then you haven race.
Speaker 8: The samesh man from out.
Speaker 9: Of space, and because he knew he was one of the.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 6: I love the code progression because it takes you somewhere
and it throws a curve go somewhere else.
Speaker 5: Yeah yeah, yeah, that's pretty good.
Speaker 2: Yeah yeah.
Speaker 3: Who's the primary songwriter on this? I guess us really yeah.
Speaker 2: Yeah, it's just like I said, I just got this
the thing that I crapped out like two months later.
But you could have this own little recluion studio on
your on your computer and put in the drums here,
put in and work on. That's how that melody came out.
And I just took that and that worked as the demo.
You put everything else on it. But there's great guitar
playing there at the end. It has that kind of
southern twang, and I know Richie's playing the wuah wa
ga time on it. And then get when it gets
to that verse and you can actually hear the alien
saying take me home. I think that's kind of a
cool song, you know. Yeah, So that's Riisewell.
Speaker 3: Just curious how many it takes to take to put
something like that together.
Speaker 2: It's the take is you know, getting the foundation usually
wouldn't take long at all, but it's it's the screwing
around with all the effects and stuff like that that
would take a long time. And then and you do
it and you have to and then you listen to
it and you go, it's not quite right. You've got
to do this. You go back and and it's a
lot of times it's so tightly woven that if you
just let one string go, the whole thing, you know,
tends to fall apot and and it's a there's also
a thing a rule of thumb. That's true. And we're
different about this because you know, we're a studio band.
You know, we've never really played out live or anything
like that. But mm hmm, it's true. You know, if
it doesn't happen the first or second time, it's it's
not going to happen, you know. So you want to
get these.
Speaker 3: Leave alone for a couple of days working on something else, right, yeah,
look at it?
Speaker 2: So yeah, yeah, but yeah, that one that came out good.
I like that song a lot. You know, it's Matt
Manley playing the bass on it too. Really, so a
lot of people involved, please, Susan.
Speaker 4: So I don't have a creative fiber in my body.
So it fascinates me when you say you all collaborated
to you know, basically write the song. Can you elaborate
on that a little bit and just explain to me?
I mean, what's that like? I mean, do you just
riding in the car and you're like, oh, write this
down or how does that work?
Speaker 2: Just the original song? So you know, one of us
would come up with it and then you know, basically
I would come up maybe with the melody, send it
to Mac and Mac wing to create a song. From
it a really good working demo, and then we'd send
that down to the studio and work off of that
is usually how it work, right, Yeah, making a pie
almost okay, keep it on the layers onto it. But
a lot of it just count, you know, as far
as the lyrics and stuff like that, and how they
say they come from nowhere.
Speaker 3: Yeah, there's a lot of bands say that. Some bands
they go down to the studio book all kinds of time,
or maybe they don't have all kinds of time. They
got three hours and they get kicked out. You get
you get only so much time to flush something out
right there in the studio.
Speaker 2: You should have everything appeared before you go in there.
It's very expensive. You know, you're trying to make it
up as you go along in the studio.
Speaker 6: But unless in the studio, sometimes you get the melody
and you're just saying gibberish.
Speaker 2: Yeah on top of it, yeah for sure. Yeah, and
then it's you know, and then you just you you
you kind of nurse it along or ever until everyone's
happy with it, what everything sounds like, and then you
know that's it.
Speaker 3: So yeah, that's the part, and there you go.
Speaker 5: You a song.
Speaker 3: It's That's how the Beatles did it. It's the business
model when scrambled eggs. While we're working on So, what's
the next one. The next one is tea cups and saucress.
Speaker 2: This is a great story, so.
Speaker 3: We want to introduce it a little bit.
Speaker 2: Yeah. So I'm not a musician. I can't play anything. Really,
you play keyboards, yeah, but anyone can do it these days.
I believe that when you listen to these songs, if
you hear something that sounds like a violins and stuff like,
that's me playing like one note at a time, one
finger at a time.
Speaker 3: With the violin button pressed right.
Speaker 2: If you hear a really good part piano, that's Chris
playing it, you know, because there's a really good piano player.
So search and So we were on uh Lois and
I had moved from our condo. We'd sold it and
we hadn't bought another house yet. So we were staying
at a cottage up on Rye Beach, right on the
middle of freaking nowhere, no phones or any thing, and
I just, you know, this song kept coming to me
and I'm just like sitting there one day and I started,
you know, writing down The lyrics are getting the melody,
but I can't call him because I don't have the phone.
So I called your answer machine and I whistled it
into the answer machine and I said, you know, just
come up, you know, if we can come up with
the foundation of this, right and and that's how this
hot happened. And this is supposed to be like a
live recording. And the tea cups and sauces are you
know what UFOs that you know, when they were first
seeing they were described as tea cups on sauces. So
that's what the song. So this is kind of a
fifties kind you know, retro, you know, dance.
Speaker 3: Hall, inspired by being in between homes.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, just laying on the beach and Rye going,
I'll no it was.
Speaker 3: What was cool about ry at the time, I think,
is that you hardly had any cell service in that.
Speaker 2: Area, right yah. We had to go through absolutely how
to go through your dead areas back then and everything
right true, So this is teacups and slices.
Speaker 11: Then go every morning in.

I cats, cats sat and it was pet sitting the
cats and a couple of dogs. But fourteen cats, I
can't imagine it.
Speaker 5: You must have a separate room.

like the old cat lady. I'm kind of them, but
not they're not all. There's five in the house. I
have two cats wwheets that are in my detached garage
to like cat enclosures. They have a balcony and a cadio,

and repeat that.
Speaker 2: It just it's for years.
Speaker 3: And pick up my poop out of the sandbox, and
you know, and every once in a while, yeah do that.
Speaker 4: And every once in a while you put your shoes
on and they're wet inside because they left you a gift.
Speaker 2: Why would they do that only because they like you?
That's all. Yeah. I can't get into cats now. But anyway,
what we're talking about tonight.
Speaker 4: And actually animals in general, so it's not it just
happens to be everyone that shows up on the property,
any animal that needs help. I take it in.

I we were talking about we're talking about the signs
of Sky Club, which is this band, the studio band
that we're kind of part of, and the new album
will be coming home soon. Finally is Ufoul your followed
you one on one and it's all songs about I
relating to your folks. Been talking about all night. So
one more talking about Now you're going to say something before?
Was that Off the Ears that I've seen? Uh ago? Okay,
So so just basically just talk about the band a
little bit. It is just like just your friends who
are musicians also who you don't get the time to
get together and do stuff, you know, uh, and just
have fun doing it and running into a lot of
interesting people while doing it. I remember once we were
doing a session, you were running down to the guitar
shop because your son in law had given you a
guitar that you broke or something. Remember that, you get
it fixed and your whole time thing and.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, the clock is ticking in the studio.
Speaker 2: Yeah right, yeah, yeah funny. But anyway, so we're going
to play another song there right down. Wannie one is
the DJ Wani. What's the next song?
Speaker 3: The next song is entitled as tech Crash Song.
Speaker 2: Okay, as ash. I think for you to say as
tech as tech crash love song, it's kind of like
into content. What's a s CP song, stone table pilots.
It's a state love song, that's the interstate love song.
And I met these people. There were very nice people.
Scott and Suzanne Ramsey, very nice people. They were they're married,
and they did UFO research together. They had already written
about two books, two or three books, and they were
really specialists on this crash and as Tech New Mexico,
which predated the Roswell where there. It's just like so
many witnesses. It's so weird that this particular crash doesn't
get the the press that roswelld does. But I mean
there were at least fifteen witnesses there. Saw this thing crash,
looked inside, saw the little beings, and there were oil workers.
It crashed in an oil Derrek place in only an
oil film, and there was a minister there, there was
a doctor there. There were like real credible people. And
then the army came and they kicked everyone out and
picked this thing up, put it on a truck and
boom that was it. Okay, And it just kind of
a fascinating story, and the fact that anyone knows about
it is really kind of fascinating. Anyway, they were nice
people and they told me how they got together. She
interviewed him on this little radio station down in New
Mexico and that's how they got together. So a mutual
friend of OZ Mike is Cynthia Smith, who's a songwriter
and comes up with some great melodies or whatever. And
we were helping her with her album at the time,
and she had this tune and I just said, let
me just give me the music to it and wrote
these lyrics and just talk about it. Weird in the shower.
I remember just she was in the shower. No, I was, well,
she was, I can remember, and the words just coming
to me, you know what I mean. I mean I
really do say and I'm not even I don't do
this often, but it was just like, oh, this is
and everything leads to them. Anyway, This is uh, this
is us going for the yart rock, for the really
deep deep FM plays. This is as hech crash love song.
Speaker 3: Here on the Mac maloney Music show.

Speaker 9: To zooming on by time only show on.
Speaker 7: Cute begins his bone shoots a narrow spinow.
Speaker 2: It's a really nice size.
Speaker 5: But you know how we work together. She'd have the
melody I'd find the chords to go around it, right, Yeah,
and then you guys did the rest and made it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, the melody that the the the bridges killer. I
mean it's really hits it and he's playing as great
and it's it's it's basically it's you, Domeny and Chris
and he's playing one of those It's like a real
advanced mellotron beast know something. But it's it's all just Augusta.
You know, I just sat down and played it. I
was just like so envious of someone who could do that.
Speaker 5: You know, that's a trained musician. He probably just came
back from Berkeley.
Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, yeah, but that was nice, Susan, are
you Oh, there's the there's the there's the either the
big cat or the big dog, the only dog dog.
Speaker 4: So this is Doppler Dog. So he's running here and
he's shaking. So I put his little thundershirt on. So
it must be going to rain or thunder or something,
because he's never wrong.
Speaker 2: He just wants to get hugged.
Speaker 3: Yeah, Susan, they can sense it for miles. You know,
It's it's easy for them, that's what they do. But
you said Doppler Dog.
Speaker 4: His name is Benton. He's a rescue but so I
call him Doppler Dog because he if he comes in
and he's acting like this, it's gonna rain.
Speaker 2: Oh Doppler Weather.
Speaker 18: Get it?
Speaker 3: Does he balk like.
Speaker 2: Gobbler?
Speaker 4: That's a different type of Doppler. I get it. Okay,
it would be about Doppler Weather.
Speaker 18: That you know.
Speaker 2: It would be uh woo woo woo woo woo wooo,
you know, like a you're like a French siren or something. Okay,
So the next song is, uh, we only.
Speaker 3: Get two more to go? Oh I think mushroom mushroom man.
Speaker 2: Oh no, okay, we go Now this is the Sigeant
Pepper of novelty song is the I mean this took
easily eighty hours. Everyone is involved, the guy from Gaza City,
Pistol Pete, people from Channel four. Uh crazy, And this
is this is the soul you were doing when you're
running back and forth to get the guitar's sorry. Remember
a lot of music in this, a lot of production
and mushroom men from Mars. I don't know it had
the titles and I had the had the melody somehow
on my little Yamaha. And then I saw the cover
of like an old sci fi magazine and said mushroom
in from myles. I said, well, that's filthy, but then
I thought, well that it sounds like something, you know
what I mean? So, uh, you put it together and
and Richie plays on this, and also Matt Malley, Dominie, Chris,
myself and the voices are various people. So this is
back that we should say in the fifties. In the
sixties they had these things called novelty songs. It was
Ali Oop right, the Purple People Leaders, the One Guy.
Speaker 3: It was even these two guys Buchanan and Goodman did
novelty songs, made a career out of it.
Speaker 2: Yep.
Speaker 3: A number of their novelty songs had this had a
theme about flying saucers and coming in for a landing
and well that's and they'd be interviewing people and as
they interviewing somebody, the answer would be part of a
snippet of a pop sovice in the time, yeah, yeah, yeah.
That was the cleverness of them is a lot of
the dialogue was basically an insert a snippet from a
pop song that that you were hearing on the radio
around the same time.
Speaker 2: So if someone went to Abbey Road and gave someone
a million dollars, this would be the song that would
come out. Right there you go. This is mushroom men
from us.
Speaker 19: Coming up next.
Speaker 9: Channel eight News East Side, West Side. We've got you covered.
Speaker 4: You're coming here.
Speaker 20: Number one, don't bring any fliquor with me because police

Speaker 21: Just look for the gloak and the flashing red light.
Speaker 2: Oh I saw that thing. I saw that thing. That
was our friend Mohammad. Yeah, we couldn't cook. So that
that's Chris bilious in his glory. That's production. It was
like you wouldn't believe that it sounds like a big band.
You know, it sounds who's the guitar player in it?
Mike's playing all the time, really and.
Speaker 3: All those leads stuff, that lead stuff too.
Speaker 2: Yeah, he said, I can remember the day. He's sitting
there and I'm going uh.
Speaker 3: And it was.
Speaker 2: It was kind of not a rip up kind of
in this a being as the as the end and
the beatles at the end of the Abbey Road where
you just played different and I said, to play like
Lennon does at the end is you know, it's just
everything fit immy first take a lot of that. I mean,
just go in and play, Are you kidding me? And
Pistol Pete is the announcer, Chris Billis is in there,
is one of the news people. My sister in law
is one of the voices. I mean, it was a
big thing, great together.
Speaker 3: What was it?
Speaker 2: The two girls mean, one was my sister in law
and one is Chris's daughter. And then the vocal right
that was the female singers that you hear is Jada Jada,
that band that we talked about. They did that and
we were trying to we we took a long time
to figure out like the alien voice because it's an
alien voice kind of talking to the women. And I
mean it's about aliens who are peeping Tom's basically okay, bravo.
And and we had a couple of women come in
and theyde you know, saying it. And then we had
this guy come in. It sounded like a Seinfeld thing,
but he actually directed an orgestra at like Rust Holmes
and stuff like that, and nice guy and saying in
a kind of alien voice, and it was terrible. Right,
So but just being you know, Chris basically and how
I guess how we are. We didn't want to heard
Edmond's feelings. So he actually married the male voice to
the two female voices, and that he came out with
that alien voice. I mean insane, you know. Yeah, class
about five grand to do it. But I mean he
did it, and you never know it, you know what
I mean, so it up or anything. Yeah, he did
everything to it and leave me. Yeah, he did every
possible thing you can imagine to it. But but he
is a big foot production and he really hit it
with that. I mean, that's that soundsible to me.
Speaker 6: And you had you had that idea years before we
did it, right, you used to. Yeah, yeah, Homie keyboards
and that ship.
Speaker 2: Absolutely. Yeah. Yeah, the Yamaha you could record five different songs,
you know, so if you remembered like a riff or whatever,
you know, just some melody, just put it in there
and then go back to it. You can play along
with it. That's what a lot of those songs shame from. Yeah,
you know, I wouldn't have been able to do without it.
One hundred bus literally one hundred dollars used. Okay, so
Yeahmaha one on one or something.
Speaker 5: Yeah, well offset the studio cost.
Speaker 2: Yeah, but I remember lugging that thing in back and forth,
you know, the trite and weighs about fifty pounds. Sounds
great almost in pre artificial intelligence. Incredible, But use the
Yamaha probably eighty percent of the times.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, it's almost like an effects the other one.
Speaker 2: Yeah right, yeah, absolutely, yep. So anyway, but most that
is Chris playing and and my playing the guitar. I
was singing, and no, not singing. You didn't sing in that.
It was a lot of guitar. You played bass in
that too, I believe, I.
Speaker 5: Believe, And yeah, wasn't Maybe Matt might have played the.
Speaker 3: Bass yet, So when he was playing the bass. Was
he playing along from remote control? Or was he in
the studio with it?
Speaker 15: No?
Speaker 2: No, he suddenly tape to him and he send it
back to us. How they do it these days? Yeah,
so uh, and actually Matt and Micro a lot of
like I think you're like the same kind of musician,
you know what. So it all fit. You know, it
was good. So anyway, we're counting down the new we're
trying to the new sky Club album. Who follows you?
Speaker 12: One on one?
Speaker 2: And we have a couple more songs. You what were
you as, Susan? You probably didn't hear that, but you probably.
Speaker 4: Loved it, right, I'm sure I did because I love Skyclubs.
Speaker 2: All right, Well, you can bring one more cat into
the uh, into the frame.
Speaker 3: Make sure she gets the first release, the first pressing. Okay, okay,
all right, okay, up next. I was only kid about
the cat, but then I opened my mouth and look
at that cat. One of four one of fourteen. Okay,
on next song, uh, next to last song, Starman bringing
Johnny Back.
Speaker 2: So I think it's called Peter and Underston Forest, the
one that you said on uh, You're.
Speaker 3: You're right, Peter, Peter renders some forest.
Speaker 2: Okay, this is an instrumental, as the kids used to say,
and once again I get ahead this riff, you know,
I think is actually on the corgue and it sounded
like I'm gonna sound high flute here now. But there
was a movie way back when called that KERSH Howard did.
I don't know forget that. It was like a like
a shogun movie at Rahaman his name, and it's basically
there's a guy walking through the woods, he's an axeman
and the music goes along with him.
Speaker 12: Like that.
Speaker 2: Okay, so that's the rash moon effect. So I had
that idea. And then so Peter Robbins, this person that
we've run into, the guy that runs the exitu Ufo
festival that we've been disinvited to for three years now.
He spent twenty years writing a book about the random
Sham random Sham forest incident in Base. That was nineteen eighty.
There's a base, very secret based us F was base
in England and these people at these the gods at
the gates are you land in the woods nearby? They
go investigated. But what was strange about it? They did
two nights. A major went with them one night and
he had a tape recorder with him and he taped
what happened his voice and they see this ufon and
they're freaking out there. I mean, it's it's it's it's real.
And so we take that then we put this into
this song. And so this is if you imagine in
this guy Peter Robbins, who spent twenty years there. I
just imagined him him walking through the forest looking for
something else after twenty years, and the music goes along
with how about that the same Peter Robbins that we know, Yeah,
the same yeah really, yeah, yeah, I know.
Speaker 3: What yeah, yeah, I know. I can't imagine it. I
can imagine being a fabulous author, but I can't imagine
doing what you just described.
Speaker 2: Well, he was there for twenty years and you know,
they found alien you know, subterranean stuff, and he really
got that bad. But anyway, something did happen there. Good
line on notes, right, let's say again, I'm sorry, yeah, right, yeah,
go on. Anyway, we should do a show just on Peter. Anyway,
he was kind of the inspiration for the song. So
this is called Peter and Rendersham Parrus and if you
uh hear the organ solo at the end that Jimmy
Smith kind of thing. Yeah, that was Mac playing that. Okay,
I took him like six months. When you hear it,
you'll know what I mean. Okay, please and.
Speaker 14: Mechanical problem.
Speaker 12: I do.
Speaker 11: I know about without.
Speaker 12: Die not.
Speaker 8: If if.
Speaker 11: If your.
Speaker 14: Questions back track your your name, bring up the track name.
Speaker 15: Whatever you gotta buy to where drink after? Like, okay,
I when can have you come on the side to side?
I put the side go on, but you don't run
home over the side that you don't stop back.
Speaker 8: You don't know.
Speaker 15: I don't about to make your come out when.
Speaker 12: That's but fayne b m hm.
Speaker 15: Half that going away, definitely going that way.
Speaker 2: We've faded out the wow wow, there you go. You
know this is by Chris Billios because man, he can
put the production is incredible. Of the mgs near the end,
Jimmy Spiker, that took us nine hours to get that straight.
But anyway, but just the whole idea that you.
Speaker 3: Say nine hours, did you spend actually nine contiguous hours
in the studio one night you was it like exile
on Main Street kind of Uh?
Speaker 2: Some of the Rogers read not these these we all done? Uh,
you know, remotely, not all of them, but a lot
of stuff was done remote right, But yeah, anyway, that's
the story and uh, Peter at renders from Forest, I
think it might change the title of that. And it's
about this guy, you know, looking and you the voices
you hear is actually that major who is talking to
his recorder that night when they saw something and it's
kind of you never explained and uh still and it
was a secret u s bace next to a secret
British space next to a NSA listening post getting better
and the UFO lands in front of these guys and
going looks like a winking eye you really yeah crazy.
So anyway, you're listening to Macaloney's music lex files here
on the Distant Thunder Radio netwhere we're going to certainly
a the new Sky Club album Uphology one on one
soon to be released, and we're just Mirk pulling is
here the drummer and guitar player, bass player, singer throughout,
and we're just talking about what was like to put
the album together and so on and so forth. So
we have the final song on the album.
Speaker 3: That's Starman bringing Johnny back.
Speaker 2: Home, and it's actually two songs, you know, melding into
one the David Bowie song star Man, and then we
kind of put our own end on the end of
it and we called it bring Him Johnny Back Home,
and once again Dominie castingel uh incredible on on saxophone,
Mike incredible on kind of like a reverb guitar. Yeah,
just a lot of good players. Luckily, I know these
people we put this together, have a lot of fun
doing this. And excuse me.
Speaker 5: So the slamming slamming, yes, yeah, yeah, So.
Speaker 2: This is Stimming by David Bowie and then Bring Johnny
Back Home by Sky Club. This is the last song
on the album. Please one one.
Speaker 9: I didn't know what time it was. The lights wallow.
Speaker 20: I lean back on my readio.
Speaker 7: Some cat was laying down sound and rock and roll
a lot s he said, then little loud.
Speaker 9: Sound that it seemed to fade him back on a
slow voice like a flame.
Speaker 7: A flame that weren't no gj that was hazy cosmic jib.
There's a star man awaiting in the sky. He'd like
to come and meet us.
Speaker 10: But he thinks he'd blow her mines.
Speaker 7: There's a star man waiting in the sky, he told
us not to blow him, because he knows it's.
Speaker 11: All worth my mon.
Speaker 7: He told me let the children his ad left.
Speaker 8: The children use it and all the children's book game.

a gift that guy had omni casting, no.
Speaker 5: Great sectually, not a single clunker note.
Speaker 2: Nothing, nothing, nothing and Mike singing, doing all the times.
And I remember one point as we were mixing, you know,
doing the final mix, Chris put everyone's voice through a
column that share uses that know, the right right, just
to make sure you're in tune, you know, auto tune.
And he was always in tune. They had They didn't
have to figure it, you know, I didn't have to.
He was always on key, always on key, always on tune.
Speaker 5: Yet yeah, all right, well that's.
Speaker 2: So anyway. Yeah, yeah, so that was the That was
the end of the album. That's the last time on
the album. And that's that's it. Your whole ology, one
on one.
Speaker 3: It's not only a sneak peek, but you got the
the whole ancelotta here right yeah, now I'm hungry the
whole Tahita, the one one. You have an objective voice.
Please tell us your review. First off, when I listened
to the songs, I listened to them individually and technically.
What I'd like to do, though, is just before I'm
ready to go to bed, is thissten to the whole
whole album in sequence. But I found that each song
is a good standalone, a piece of material that I
thought was amazing. Every song painted like a portrait of
We got the benefit of a little bit of introduction
from you, but what the direction of the song was.
But I enjoyed listening to it so much so that
I said, I can't wait for the next one.
Speaker 2: Wow.
Speaker 3: Really, I've known you a long time and I had this.
I have the first sky Club record, and I did
listen to the whole thing, and like maybe some of
your books, wow, I just get don't get around to it,
but record the records that you put out, the way
you describe how it's done. It's impressive because I read
a lot of rock and roll books and how some
of these great artists like the Stones and the Beatles
did things, and you know, it's it's It can be complicated,
but it could be simple too, and sometimes the simplest
ones are the best ones. But you guys really made
it sound, you know, not complicated, but it was. It
was easy for you. But there were a lot of
parts to it. Those a cake mix that had a
lot of ingredients, but baking it baking, yes, yeah, just
don't leave the It took so long to make it.
So I'll tell you what one I really liked. It
only clap for our soulens on that and soon hopefully
you know, well very soon on Spotify anyway, the new
Sky Club album your fog Ifology one on one, and
we'll announce that on the show and for sure. So
