- The real stuff period, SRV clones take a walk, Chi town blues rock returns and kills you all..
Give Me My Money
Actually a typo. Peachfuzz wrote this riff as "Where's My Money" and he's still looking for it. Straight pedal tone jam with with a little movement, a great warm-up.
Toad
A modern love song written for the personification of backyard characters coming together in the community center, the above ground swimming pool where all the majic happens..
The Sound
The riff in this tune is nominated for and has won in the past Guitar Center nationals in 2003 (okay he just threw it in there..). this tune is an absolute house rocker. A Travelbee classic. If you don't have this down, then you just aren't really where you need to be..
Girl From L.A.
Another Travelbee classic included in the set, this one has a great story. Our young guitar slinger went to LA to chop some heads with the Gibson big wood and ran into the arms of an expired fling. They embrace on overlooking the hollywood hills and she is deserted the next day, only to have had Fleetwood's car go spinning out of control on the 101. Everybody got it that night..
Sun Cycle
Peachfuzz only brings the pure gold to the table. Having listened to Blue Cheer as a kid, Badvibes present the ideal showcase for such timeliess classic material. Badvibes LOVES Blue Cheer. Perhaps the most underrated rock band in history, but with so many entries, who's really on top? Badvibes.
Actually a typo. Peach
Drivin South
Enter the master's influence. It's really a silly thing to cover a Hendrix standard with breaking even in mind, but this band does not care how the poorly educated music clones respond. See comments at Youtube. Losing faith in the world? Start here.
Babylon
Perhaps the gem in this collection. Certainly the fans' favorite. Another Blue Cheer tribute. Game over. Try this at home and fail. Badvibes.
Mean Town Blues
At the end of the day, its all about blues people. Check out Fleetwood's licks on thei Johnny Winter standard. For you non-believers, Badvibes. Note the shoutout to Jackie Webster's stringent practice routine in the last verse.. Do you think he plays everyday? An ex-limo driver for non other than C.C. DeVille and Lionel Richie, Webster gets her done.
Jeff Beck
The original masterpiece of our time. Listen to this song. Buy this song. Do you understand where this is coming from. Deep deep influences people.
If you're in to what's goin on in TODAY's music scene and the fluffy stuff doens't get by you, you need to tell youself and friends about Badvibes; the power trio from Chicago sent by God to make all the pain go away. Badvibes.
