Was listening to the radio while driving and this came on:
The songwriter/performer is Freebo who I know from his playing bass for Bonnie Raitt for thirty years. I always liked his bass playing, never knew he was a singer/songwriter too.
His website: Freebo Music
His Youtube channel: Freebo Video
He also (infrequently) posts a blog -- here he has a car for sale:
Truth Comes to Car Advertising: 2000 Range Rover 4 Sale 2000 Range Rover for Sale: $5458 as is, no warranty implied
Huge and gnarly SUV for sale, deep in the Maine woods. This 2000 Range Rover 4.6 HSE is begging for a new home. Only 95k miles on this behemoth. What other car offers the confluence of these three features: Legendary unreliability, extremely costly parts and repairs, and atrocious gas mileage. Yes, with this humongous Land Rover product you get all that and more!
� Hopelessly complex but utterly useless electronic features include a wide variety of buzzers, alarms, laser-triggered motion sensitive security shutdowns, etc. The super lockdown mode that goes on at random times in the dead of winter keeps owner safe from exiting the vehicle until the jaws of life can be summoned. � Known for its colossal mass and inertia, the Rover trundles down the highway like a garbage scow, while lurching side to side with the nauseating vertiginous rhythms of a conestoga on the Chisholm Trail. But the rich, supple leather seating soothes the buns. � Enormous V-8 burns no oil, but requires a gasoline tanker in its convoy to resupply it on the road like a B-52 over Greenland. The gas gauge is the fastest moving needle on the instrument cluster that looks like the navigation panel on Apollo 13. � Every conceivable audio option known to humankind as of 2000, including a sub-woofer that is capable of blowing the front passenger upwards through the retractable moonroof as if Marty McFly just twanged a righteous chord. � Loaded with every superficial wannabe macho option such as brush bars fore and aft, alloy wheels, tinted windows, memory seats, concealed cup-holders, white gold exterior, sumptuous leather interior, hill-holding super-low range tranny for trail crashing through the boondocks as if in hot pursuit of Daisy Duke, an escape hammer in case of the aforementioned lockdown mode, and way too much redundant power crap to list.
Funny stuff...
