    The Guardian UK calls Chicago native Ezra Furman “the most compelling live act you can see right now.” He counts Iggy Pop among his fans and is a critical darling in the U.S. and the UK. We welcome him for his Morning Becomes Eclectic debut in advance of his appearance at the Hollywood Bowl as part of KCRW’s World Festival on September 25.

      Jules Cordonnier not unique but definitely reminiscent to the great legends of the past ( particularly Ziggy and Lou Reed).

      atsuya k Don’t forget Gordon Gano from the violent femmes. He sounds almost exactly like him. I do love Ezra Furman though.

    By the way, it's totally worth going to the station's website and listening to the whole thing. The interview is hilarious. "Has anyone ever told you that I've got beautiful blue eyes?". Lol.

      Too funny. And the bit where the interviewer thought Mango and the Mangroves were an actual band! :)

    Everybody talks sarcastic
    Everybody's in the know
    I think I might do something drastic
    If they don't let me go away from it all
    But I can't afford a jet plane
    And the price of gas is high
    There's nowhere that I can run to
    When I feel so sick and shy
    Gonna make a big noise to the sky
    Teddy, I'm ready to rock and roll
    And if she smiles at me in the snow
    Baby, I'm ready to rock, rock and roll
    And I whispered that I loved her
    In the ancient photo booth
    She's just got one of those faces
    That demands the truth
    She likes Ted Hawkins too
    And the truth is just a mole rat
    Crawling underneath the earth
    It is naked and it's gnawing away at the world
    And it hurts so bad I could cry
    But they don't allow no crying
    In the cold straight world of men
    So I build my little fortress
    'Til I can get even
    Teddy, I'm ready to rock and roll
    I can see now, she's an angel
    Flying in my bedroom window
    I'm ready to rock and roll, ready to rock and roll

    I was lucky enough to hear the whole KCRW interview and show rolling down Whittier Blvd in Pico Rivera in a diesel truck thinking to myself 'THIS is American rock and roll.' Turned it up, left it playing when I got to the job site and everyone loved it.

      +Bee Round I'm beginning to see that. Saw him referred to as Reb somewhere. I was fortunate to hang out with him for a bit in Portland, but the conversation didn't turn to matters of faith.

    • @shellsbellsification
      @shellsbellsification 8 років тому +2

      He is a gender non conforming male. The description on the video says "he", hence I was confused about the sincerity of your question. Sorry, and I hope this answers. Reminds me of the time I put my daughter in a blue dress and someone asked if she was a boy! Mixed cues can confuse people!

  • @powellpressburger5507
    @powellpressburger5507 7 років тому

    Weak outtake not worthy of Ezra after his brilliant Perpetual Motion People album. The lyrics, superb on that album, are a total non-event here. This is only as good as the tracks of the albums that preceded that one.
