RANDOMRECORDWORKOUTSPRINGTRAINING2017 Session 7 Doug and the Slugs: Wrap It! Time: 38 minutes Songs: 11 Calories burned: 284 calories per song: 25.81 Calories per minute: 7.47 Scouting Report: So, TECHNICALLY it is not spring anymore, but I still have to get through 10 of these, so bear with me. I have been a bit more active and occupied this spring than I anticipated, which I suppose is a good thing...but nevertheless!! Before you ask, I will address the obvious. Yes. There IS someone named Doug in the band. Doug and the Slugs are a Canadian pop music group formed in 1977 in Vancouver. They are best remembered for the Canadian top 40 hits "Too Bad" (1980), "Making It Work" (1983) and "Tomcat Prowl" (1988). "Too Bad" was used as the theme song for The Norm Show, a 1999-2001 sitcom starring Norm Macdonald. In their formative years, it seems Doug and the Slugs had issues getting their name out there because, ironically, club owners didn't like their name. From their wiki : " They entered a battle of the bands in Vancouver at the Body Shop, but lost. Hardly discouraged, the enterprising Doug Bennett formed an underground following of dedicated fans by promoting his own dances at booked community halls (most notably the Commodore Ballroom) in Vancouver, and giving these dances attention-grabbing names like "Beach Blanket Bungle," "Secret Agent Man," and "The Last Upper." These Dances became hot ticket items due to their guaranteed-good-time status during 1978-1979. Doug and the Slugs also put on an annual outdoor dance festival known as "Slugfest". " Literally they booked their own gigs and built a fan base! I love stuff like that!! Being in a punk band, this is how you do it. D. I. Y. So this is pretty much their sophomore album and it starts off with a track called simply, "Dangerous?" Yes, with a question mark. It is fairly new wave-ish. Pretty straight up 80's and harmonious layers in the round. The voice is pretty weird, though. "Real Enough" is the second tune, and very confusing, I must admit. Do wop?? Into raggae!?! No. Seriously. WTF?!!??!!? They rescue it with "Not on the Corner" though. I get the feeling they were going for J. Geils band meets Huey Lewis + news here. I think they were successful, but only if Jello Biafra sang lead vox with Costello's half brother. This one is a little more rock 'n roll, so #decent is deserved. "Wrong Kind of Right " finds them back in another genre. Weird Al mixed in, I suppose. Is this band serious?? The liner notes are very clearly joke filled. Maybe they are comedy-core? "Partly from Pressure" is alt + Country before it was even a thing, and "Alibi" has a funk and blues beat. Ok, I am starting to see why they had a tough time getting their name out there. No one could nail them down on a sound! And that is only side one!! The flip contains "InfraRed" which completely conjures images of a wedding band for me. I feel like maybe they wore blazers with corduroy patches over a neon color shirt with tight rolled khakis. "Forget About Me" is another attempt- but sadly it seems as though maybe the 80's did indeed forget. I am fairly certain the song "Frankie" contains a lyric that goes something like: " no one listens to the God Damned scientists and I'm workin' the graveyard shift". Ok. Yes. #weshouldlistentothescientists. The last two tunes are "(just a little bit) Embarrassed " and "River" - the latter of which is a slow jam complete with ... Wait for it ... WIND CHIMES. Wind Chimes. Yes, you heard me. Wind chimes mo-fo! Wow. Diverse for sure, but too much so methinks.
