We're jumping off the rails here a bit. Our federal govt is too! Resist like mothers! 

We spin the original (1990) track (just a smidge) and the full 6:18 of the new recording. 

Please share this around with organizers of rallies, your fave radio hosts, etc. The song drops on the major platforms on Weds April 30. We can send out CDs.

In this episode, our intrepid host finally writes a decent song but refuses to stay put (either chronologically or geographically) -- slipping between Pacific Palisades and parts elsewhere (Eugene, Oregon, in this case) -- meanwhile earning the moniker "Barefoot Leroy." 

Life expands in several directions but keeps snapping back to the Palisades. 

Music, free (or cheap) love, and several college majors roll into and out of the picture. We meet Lea's first--very Bohemian--wife, Jannie  (who teaches him plenty!) and come to understand his inclination toward stereotyping groups of people (a key theme in this developing tale)...

Is the word "Shi*" considered 'Explicit'? If so, sorry. 

The instrumental cue is "Let's Not & Say We Did" (from the album Where the Buffalo Roam - 2023 and featuring NOLA's Joe Krown on boogie woogie piano). 

The song "Ringing in My Ears" is a from a live performance on YouTube - from a solo show Lea did just before leaving Eugene in 1991, and you can hear/see the whole song here: https://youtu.be/6BVPIfxd2oo?si=B8-zEjiemGMbeJHx

[NOTE: Operator Error... Podcast #3 (Guinea Pigs Don't Bounce) needed a bit less "Ambiance" (like NONE)... Episode 3.1 is the same story, but without the goofy effects!]

Misadventures in the natural sciences (no, btw, guinea pigs don't bounce), schooling issues continued, and the saving grace of having a curious older brother...

Instrumental cues: 'Unsafe at Any Speed' AND 'Goodbye Sleepy Town' - from Where the Buffalo Roam (Buffalo Romeo)

Those cues (and more) can be enjoyed over on BuffaloRomeo.Bandcamp.com

Don't be looking for a strict chronology in this episode, as our host draws on his doodley (ADD-ish) tendencies to illustrate his early days in San Luis Obispo (post-high school) before falling back into further bits of personal history in the Palisades... 

Music ("Americana" before it was called Americana) becomes a thing in this episode. 

Music tracks are all copyrighted stuff from Lea Jones.

Sheldon Lea Jones turned 17 in Pacific Palisades, California in 1972. 

Then he quietly slipped out of town. 

This episode serves as introduction to my weird little world, featuring bits of original music and piles of my recent writing, minus the doodles.
