I've been trying to figure out the lyrics to Rick Derringer's
Rock and Roll Hootchie Koo.  Talk about a "Friday make me want
a beer (or something) song"! Can someone correct what I have
thus far?

Alright!

Couldn't stop moving when it first took hold
It was a warm Spring night at the old town hall
There was a group called The Jumpers, they were laying it down
You know I'm never gonna lose that funky sound

Rock and Roll Hootchie Koo
Lawdy mama, light my fuse
Rock and Roll Hootchie Koo
Truck on out and spread the news

The 'squitas started buzzing about that time of year
I'm going 'round back she said she'd meet me there
We were rolling in the grass just behind the barn
When my ears started ringing like a fire alarm

Rock and Roll Hootchie Koo
Lawdy mama, light my fuse
Rock and Roll Hootchie Koo
Truck on out and spread the news

Yeah, Did somebody say keep on rocking
Owwwwwwww!
(jam for a while)
That's right
(jam some more)
Woooooo!

I hope you all know what I'm talking about
The way they wiggle that thing really knocks me out
Getting high all the time, hope you all are too
Come on a little closer gonna do it to you

Rock and Roll Hootchie Koo
Lawdy mama, light my fuse
Rock and Roll Hootchie Koo
Truck on out and spread the news

Due to the tons of e-mail I got asking for more info about
the forthcoming 5-CD Tull box set, here's the report I sent
to the Tull mailing list:

I recently got a videotape of a Canadian TV interview with Ian.
The interview was conducted on November 9 of this year (near the
end of the tour). The interviewer asks: "what can we expect from
future albums from Jethro Tull? Do you know which direction you
would like to take?"

Ian replies:
"I would like to take any direction other than the one that I'm
 having to take next week when I get back to England, because for
 the next three months I will be working on the '25 Years of Jethro
Tull' commerative sort of packages. There's a 2-CD set of digital
remasters of all the original mixes, which will be 37 songs in a
2-CD set at a very special price, and then there's a 5-CD box set
really more for the dedicated fans. That contains live recordings
from many years, some remixes, some re-recordings, some new live
recordings even from this tour... so it's kind of a package with a
lot more esoteric sort of-- more dedicated to the real fans-- unusual
sort of stuff. I don't think there will be a new Jethro Tull studio
album: there is no time in the next 12 months anyway. We're very busy.
There's no time to do a studio album: we have too many other projects
on the go at the moment. Next year to go with the two audio products
there is a 1-hour video which is being made during the next few months
which embodies 25 years worth of bits and pieces of various live things--
a lot of historical stuff, some of which is quite funny, some of which is
ok. Some of it is just more commercial video type things, plus a lot of
interviews with current and ex band members, their wives, their girlfriends,
their children, their dogs, their cats, their bank managers... so it'll
be an interesting video if you like that sort of thing."

(end of interview)

I think that in retrospect their best work *was* Revolver. Sgt. Pepper
got a lot more press, but that's only because the public and the
news media was just catching up to what was happening at the time.
Taking a look at just the music, Revolver far outstrips Sgt. Pepper,
which is not to take away from the cultural impact of the latter
album.

    I was just expressing my enjoyment of the Stones with some mock-absolute
terms. There is, as yet, no objective standard of music. My favorite rock re-
cords are the first _five_ Stones albums: The RS, No.2, 12x5, RS Now!, and Out
Of Our Heads. I invented the category "rhythm and blues rock to fit these al-
bums since there is much influence from Willie Dixon, Chuck Berry, Marvin Gaye,
Sam Cooke, and others. Tho, as look now, there are also blues influences so,
perhaps, the category should be expanded to rhythm and blues _blues_ rock. 
There is a pleasant, happy, down home, laid back, casual, witty, etc. quality
to my emotional response to these albums. Perhaps my favorite song here is 
Berry's "You Can't Catch Me." and Leiber's "Down Home Girl." Why, many's the
time, when my Austin-Healey 3000 refused to start and I walked to school, 
with a song in me "art and a Stones ditty on me lips.
    Chill out, brother.

   The first velvet underground to be released was Velvet Underground
 and Nico (1967).BTW,the vu belonged to Andy WArhols "Plastic Exploding
 Inevitable" set.He also designed the cover for this album.(a yellow 
 banana).Some covers also had an orange banana which when peeled   
 displayed the group name.The members of this group at this time were
 LOU REED,JOHN CALE,MAUREEN TUCKER,STERLING MORRISON & NICO ( a german
 songstress and lr's girlfriend).The second album was called velvet 
 underground (Ithink 1968).The cover featured members sitting on a sofa
 (approx).The third album was called WHITE LIGHT,WHITE HEAT (THIS could
 be the second and vu,above ,the third).THen there were a couple of live
 albums .
 1)velvet underground live (1969)
 2)live at max's kansas city
 Then came a totally different (but nevertheless excellent) album called
 LOADED. This featured no cale and nico (who was only on the first album
 anyway).Instead it featured DOUG YULE (AND MAYBE HIS BROTHER TOO).I think
 this was in 1970  or 1971.There are a few more albums further on (like
 vu-vu).But none to match the brilliance of those above.All this info is
 from memory,if any mistakes please excuse and clarify.

Here's the lyrics from GTPM of Rock'n Roll Hoochie Koo by Rick
Derringer. Check Johnny Winter's version if you can, Rick Derringer
plays on it too.


Rock'n Roll Hoochie Koo


I couldnt stop movin' when it first took hold 
It was a straight night at the old town hall.
It was a group called the jok-ers they were lay-in' it down,
Lord never gon-na lose that funky sound.

Rock and roll hoochie koo,
Lordy mama light my fuse.
Rock and roll hoochie koo,
I'm goin' out to spread the news.

Mosquitos start buzzin' 'bout this time of year,
I'm goin' 'roundback, said she'd meet me there.
We were rollin' in the grass it was behind the barn,
Well my ears started ringin' like a fire alarm.

Rock and roll hoochie koo,
Lordy mama light my fuse.
Rock and roll hoochie koo,
I'm goin' out to spread the news.

I hope you all know what i'm talkin' about,
Way she wiggles that thing really knocks me out.
Gettin' high all the time hope you all are too,
Come on little closer I wanna do it to you.

Rock and roll hoochie koo,
Lordy mama light my fuse.
Rock and roll hoochie koo,
I'm goin' out to spread the news.

That i'm tired of payin' dues,
Of sacrificing all my blues,
Lordy mama light my fuse.

		WHITER SHADE OF PALE - Procol Harum

		We skipped the life fandango
		And turned cartwheels 'cross the floor
		I was feelin' kind of sea-sick
		And the crowd called out for more
		And the room was humming hotter
		As the ceiling flew away
		When we called out for another drink
		The waiter brought a tray

		And so it was that later as the miller told his tale
		That her face at first just ghostly
		Turned a whiter shade of pale

		She said there is no reason
		And the truth is plain to see
		While I wandered through my playing cards
		And would not let her be
		One of sixteen vestel virgins
		Who were leaving for the coast
		And although my eyes were opened
		They might just as well have been closed

		And so it was that later as the miller told his tale
		That her face at first just ghostly
		Turned a whiter shade of pale

Sorry, but I just can't let anybody get away with saying Sgt. Pepper's was
the best.  In my opinion, the White Album and _Abbey Road_ are far better
quality based on the composition, style, vocals, instrumentals, and 
innovativeness (is that a word?).  Don't get me wrong; Sgt. Pepper's is one of
the best rock-n-roll albums ever, but MY favorite of all time is _AR_.
