BANDS UGLY THINGS TAUGHT US

Q65's cover of Lee Dorsey's "Get Out of My Life" is..., fuck, I don't know what it is. Something like the Yardbirds produced by Allen Toussaint, with Lara Logic playing sax. There might be a handful of you that know what I'm trying to get at, but I know who will, the Mystery Suggester. And that's who I thought of when I listened to it.


In the studio, 1967

Q65 had different lineups, and their music varied in style depending on the era, but there's always something in the mix that's a just little bit out there. There is an undercurrent of wildness, even in their more restrained stuff. Blah, blah, blah. In short, they're Dutch freaks. You dig that sort of stuff, right?

Yes, I do dig them.
I think what you are trying to express is a detached feeling of utter futilization, streched to the rhealm of complete denial, whilest somehow holding out a speck of hope that somehow, in a trillion years from now, it will be shown to be fruitful.

Yeah, sure, don't know what you're getting at, but more power to you Timmy.
