We had so much fun doing the Failed State Jukebox a few weeks ago that we thought we'd try it again. Thanks to my (Lenny's) terrific administrative skills, J.G. Michael wasn't on the call. But don't worry, he'll be back next week!
With author and journalist Mark Jacobson as our guide, we prevailed through 90 minutes of cult music, including:
TaliasVan & the Bright & Morning Star Band: Let's Be Lovers (live)
Jeremy Spencer: Can You Hear The Song
Charles Manson: Cease to Exist
The Beach Boys: Never Learn Not to Love
Boney M: Rivers of Babylon
The Melodians: Rivers of Babylon
David Koresh: Rivers of Babylon
Passion: Don't Stop
Mobb Deep: Shook Ones, Pt. 2
Peoples Temple Choir: He's Able
L. Ron Hubbard: Alien Visitors Attack
Jim Kweskin Jug Band: Dark as a Dungeon
But that's not all! Listen to the end, because Philadelphia's own Shy Boyz come on to discuss their cult covers album, American Idolz. They also share their rendition of "Energy Master," originally recorded by Gabriel of Urantia.
