"Special streamline" by Bukka (Booker) White ca. 1939. Unfortunately, the master recording of this was damaged at some point. Video produced by yours truly... not label sanctioned or official in any capacity.
A video I produced about the disappearing family farms in my area, and the resulting rural decay. Townes Van Zandt provides the words, Jay Farrar & Kelly Willis the music. A "tribute to a tribute" to Townes. A refreshing absence of politics in this beautiful song.
An expansion of a PBS promo, inspired by a recent visit to Washington, DC. This uses the entire "John Dunbar theme" by John Barry, and focuses squarely on our nation's capital, unlike the :30 PBS version.
If you are old enough to remember the Franklin Mint commercial for the "Civil War Chess Set", you also remember that it ran in nearly every commercial break on your independent TV station for 2 excruiating years. I had the stupid thing memorized. Here's Robert Klein's send-up of the offer, music & video layed in by yours truly.
(Fan video) A cautionary tale about obsessing over alt-country ghosts. Video produced by yours truly, not label sanctioned or official in any capacity.
Telly favors us with a couple of tunes to make the broads swoon, and talks about... Telly Savalas. Listen up, pal: Telly's packin' a piece... so you're gonna sit down, shut your mouth & clean the wax out of those ears to hear a MAN make song.
Jay Farrar - Space Junk (audio reversed). A fan video.
Reversed, Jay Farrar's "Space Junk" becomes the palette for a visual treatment of the kind of depression that keeps you house-bound, and perfectly willing to miss out on all of the things that you used to love about life.
I know. Deep stuff, right?
