remember, the radio cut of the title track didn't even appear on the album. the one that goes "SHIMMEH-EH-EH-EH-SHIMMEH-WHIP!"? that's not on the album. that's the retarded ludacris/club remix the label put out for radio play.

the album cut doesn't have a ludacris rap. it's actually really sparse and creepy.

most of it is pretty good, but you have to admit, there is SOME pure filler in there. not to mention the 2-hour spoken word play/'intermission theatre.'

i'm not as big a fan of that whole phase in the summer of '77 when he joined seals and crofts as a "spiritual zen zydeco lute-picker."

i think he was just quaaluded out of his skull by then.

And I sing a song less for you

Seven ways less the boys in blue

I favor less the thunder in your ears

I'm seven ways is less I shed your tears

I'm favored in the way

I am less to you today

I'm less then I would favor anything I savor in the day

I'm favored in the blesslessness I see

Favorless in the way you blessed the boys in blue for me

I'm favored in the day I am

A man of might

It's less that I belong to you

It's less that I would fight

But it's less that I would marry you

Favorless is less your right

I am the man who is

Blessed in me

Seven ways favored in the song I sing

From sea to sea

It's less I name you jubilee, jubilee, jubilee downtown favor of

It's less I turn my head and cough for you

I am a jew

I belong...

anyone else ever downloaded mccheese's rejected soundtrack for the movie "honey, i blew up the kid?"

what THE FUCK was he trying to do on that thing?

hey mccheese - don't put a fucking accordion solo on your album unless you can actually play the accordion!

it is common for those who have seen the face of whokebe to describe him thusly.

we were on some heavy stuff those days, good stuff, straight out of vietnam and laos that good ole' boys coming back from the front would give us after shows. that plus how at the time we had reached the zenith of our political consciousness (and arguably the nadir of our moral one) made for a volatile situation.

i really think that episode was triggered 4 days before when mccheese and the dalai lama sat down with representatives from the nixon administration to discuss sino-tibetan relations. he was really on edge, you could see the frailty in his eyes man.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1011964&forum_id=2#12124246)

mccheese was never really the same after those 8 minutes 31 seconds, but neither were we. it's like we had forgotten how to breath or walk or both and then suddenly relearned it again. it's easy to romanticize the past, but man, everything just folded together then. it was like watching the tectonic plates collide to form the himalayas in real time as immortal buddhas or something man.

now, i'm going to ask an ugly question, but don't get mad, because these rumors have been around for a long time - is it true that you guys made something of a strategic decision not to cut the power to the amp even as you saw mccheese jabbing at it with his panga and getting ready to puke?

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1011964&forum_id=2#12124441)

to answer your question, to say the decision not to cut the power was 'strategic' suggests there was an element of calculation involved. perhaps there was, but it went no further than calculating the sheer brilliance that was being demonstrated before our eyes. the strategic element was primordial in nature. there is an evolutionary basis for the fragrance of flowers, or our aversion to spoiled fruits. i am sure that the curiosity roused by mccheese's outburst wasn't something superficial. in fact, it breached the surface and anchored itself deep within our psyches.

i noted during the congressional investigation that i was not cognizant of what was happening after the 42nd second of the episode. expert testimony reaffirmed this. i can only say that it was the spirit of mccheese, bigger than the man himself, that moved us not only to keep the amp on, but to crank up the juice.

Makes you wonder what kind of groundbreaking collaborations the world has missed out on because of McCheese's stubborn view on the whole thing.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1011964&forum_id=2#12124383)

McCheese actually NEVER made it to the stage, because Bob Dylan and Eric Clapton were en route to the ER with McCheese's lifeless body in the backseat when his segment was supposed to be recorded. Right around the time Clapton dumped McCheese's body on the doorstep of the hospital, Scorsese forced a newcomer to the scene to take the stage (after hasty deliberation as to who should sing McCheese's parts). Most casual fans think that this newcomer is actually McCheese, but he was in fact, Neil Diamond!

That, my friend, is the 6 foot f manchu you speak of. Took Scorsese a pair of garden shoes and a bottle of elmer's glue and a little bit of film magic, but by god he pulled it off

A++ song titles

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1011964&forum_id=2#12124428)

this was the 1986 benefit concert that marked mccheese's comeback after his first liver transplant.

it's not a great album; much of it runs toward "we are the world"-themed sap, and the all-star cast of singers really isn't put to great use on most of the tracks.

but tracks 7-10 are stark, disturbing gems - they actually wheeled mccheese up on stage in his ICU bed so he could do those four songs playing only a small mandolin and the original harmonica he used on his teenage debut album "Listen To That! The Fast Tijuana Stylings Of Guillermo Alcalde McQueso de la Talavera y Jaen, RKO Records' Youngest Harpmaster"

rather than doing a preplanned medly of earlier hits, he did an impromptu four-song cycle taking place in an alternate reality in which his transplant had failed, and he had been buried prematurely in a coffin before waking up.

really, really disturbing stuff. but the songs themselves were lovely.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1011964&forum_id=2#12131395)

after the hearing, when the cameras weren't rolling, helms confronted mccheese with a giant wooden paddle, like something out of little house on the prairie or something. rumor had it that helms's daughter sneaked out to a mccheese unplugged event at camp bewbntit and fell in love. helms was incensed! after muttering some crap about 'circumsized heathen homoantichristcommiepinkosaytpd' he lunged for mccheese's healthy bosom.

for some reason Whokster had a jar of tartar sauce from our fish fry the night before in his blazer. when helms lunged, me and Whokster sprang to mccheese's defense. i held off capitol police and Whokster smeared tartar sauce all over helms's face, in his ears, and then did the most courageous thing ever. Whokster stopped pummeling the senator, hugged him, and licked tartar sauce off of his earlobe.

after the initial shock, mccheese was overcome with emotion. everyone was at that point. i looked into the eyes of the capitol police dude whose nuts i had clenched in my fist. i let go. we hugged. everyone gathered around and held hands. mccheese then started humming kumbaya. helms licked the tartar sauce from his lips and sang too. afterward, up until helms died, mccheese and him would meet up every year at a lodge in montana for a weekend to produce bedtime lullabies under the pseudonyms 'radek & radek radek.'

luckily some of the singing was caught on tape, which is now housed in the national archives. they won't be released until january 1st, 2013. at first it was supposed to have happened in 2011, but some congress intern dude named 'deepxoxo2012man' messed up the filing. oh bureaucracy!

this is his notorious comedy concept album with the Route 66 parody "Forest of Dicks" mentioned above.

though not particularly bracing by today's standards, it was a big shock for such a prominent artist to release such a vulgar record back in the early 80's. but the various boycotts and album burnings by christian groups only added to mccheese's fame.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1011964&forum_id=2#12143708)

this is the banned album where mccheese inexplicably seeded the songs on this straightforward blues-themed rocker with lyrics defaming and libeling various celebrities and public figures, including his notorious claim that actor don ameche and cult figure vincent price engaged in oral sex "behind the boathouse every friday, not a friday ever comes where knobs ain't getting slobbed."

this was the basis for the later 90's alt-rock hit "possum kingdom" by the band toadies.

mccheese was sued no less than 25 times over this album, and lost every single claim.

this, of course, plunged him into bankruptcy and led to his second great depressive phase.

this was mccheese's derivative, late 90's "electronica" collaboration with fatboy slim, the crystal method, the prodigy, and eiffel 65.

it's really quite a terrible album, but it is notable for a four-minute stretch on track six that is nothing but a series of extreme and rapid bass blasts that have been known to cause animals to run away from home.

I remember it well -- "What If (The Caveman Remix)." McCheese refused to give wmtp his much-deserved co-author credit on that track. A decision he'd come to regret when wmtp, hopped up on Pixie Stix and rage, broke into David Geffen's personal vault and ripped the master tapes to shreds with his bare hands.

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1011964&forum_id=2#12722824)

i'll admit, i liked it a lot but i don't think i'm serious enough to appreciate its real NEXT. LEVEL. SHIT. meaning. for me, it was a freakshow, it was mccheese as he was wont to be -- a simple man wearing a kangaroo costume while he worked his halal food stand down by wall street.

mccheese had to record a children's science album in the late 1980's due to a court settlement after he broke his contract to appear as a regular guest on sesame street.

with the help of nobel laureate in medicine michael stuart brown, mccheese introduced children to the world of cholesterol chemistry, including detailed accounts of the posttranslational processing of the LDL receptor in familial hypercholesterolemia.

this album is credited with creating a surge 20 years later in graduate students studying lipoprotein chemistry, inspired by their fond memories of this childhood album.

Little known fact about Lipids:

In '83, after the nasty Pink Floyd breakup, McCheese's friendship became a huge point of contention between the bandmates. It was actually McCheese that hooked up Syd Barrett with his first hit of acid! But that is a story for a different time. Long story short - Roger Waters won McCheese's friendship from the other members of the band after a drunken night of terrorizing London's homeless in Roger's replica batmobile.

The two collaborated on Science. It wasn't McCheese's first concept album, but it was definitely his most Pink Floydian. The album is bookended by two similar tracks (think Shine on you crazy diamond or pigs on the wing, here is where the heavy pink floyd influence can be seen). The two tracks - entitled "I am forced away from myself (a return to hydrophilia)" - encase the rest of the album, which deals with hydrocarbon chains, passive diffusion, etc..

When you look at the track listing this way, it becomes apparent that the structure of the album is the same as the phospholipid bilayer of the cell membrane, the most basic building block of all life!!!!

McCheese's genius, as most people tend to overlook, is as evident in his subtlety as it is in his avant garde stylings.

this was the spanish-language album mccheese released around the same time as the movie "La Bamba," as he attempted to cash in on the brief infatuation with mexican music.

unfortunately, mccheese refused to release this album on either CD or magnetic tape formats, maintaining that mexico "does not have that sort of technology yet," and would therefore be inauthentic. this led to a boycott by mexican groups and limited vinyl record sales.

And that's how a young Dean Bittermen ended up spending the first four months of 1983 secreted inside a bass amp, touring central Asia.

mccheese released this album several months after sept. 11, as "ARE COUNTRY" fervor began to simmer up money to the likes of toby keith and comedian jeff foxworthy.

however, some say mccheese took his songwriting to extremes. his lead single "Hey Mr. A-rab, Fuck You'n Yer Camel'n Yer Country!" was a barnstorming country rocker that attracted criticism from various groups of communists and malcontents even as it rocketed up the charts.

however, it became clear that mccheese had not entirely cast off the influence of leftist bien-pensants, either - in 2003, he sharply rebuked republican presidential candidate tom tancredo for using his song "These Colors Don't Run - Nah; Fuck That; They Shoot Yer Border-Hoppin' Wetback Ass! Hey Spics, Get The FUCK OUTTA MAH COUNTRY!" during campaign stops, noting that tancredo had "clearly failed to understand the song's subtext."

(http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=1011964&forum_id=2#12308887)

mccheese briefly became a seminarian and baptist preacher in the mid-1970's after renouncing his "lifestyle of ruin" which had carried on throughout the 1960's.

on this album, he turned the little-known biblical story of habakkuk into an epic song cycle centering around the bizarre idea that the prophet habakkuk was, in fact, God. and that the conservation between habakkuk and God indicated a schizophrenic dialogue within God's own mind.

for this heresy, mccheese was literally chased out of his small winona, mississippi church by a pitchfork-heavy mob and was shot through both buttocks while fleeing, a fact which writer gore vidal found endlessly amusing.

for having such a long winded title, the song is a surprisingly terse love story. it's anchored by the extended metaphor of the 1988 yellowstone fires as a man's manic episode of creative destruction after realizing the girl he truly loved was more imagined than real. mccheese has that rarefied ability to make the profound catchy.

in the late 70's, mccheese contracted a particularly virulent strain of tuberculosis, likely from a third-world whore. he then inseminated untold hundreds of others with this strain while traveling the world as the UN's special rapporteur on the elimination of polio.

however, far from being apologetic on his album, mccheese used his songs to lambaste the dead for their weak immune systems and failure to adhere to their medication regimens.

when questioned by reporters, mccheese stated that "God don't make no junk, and TB don't kill nothing BUT junk - so what does THAT tell you?"

mccheese later blamed his callousness on stress caused by his own TB, which eventually led to a double lung transplant and 15 minutes of clinical death on the operating table.
