Start Jamming...
Really [G] looking out how far do you not [D] go back?
Many a [G] year many a year.
I guess about seven years [D] for the four of us Debbie and I go [G] back
[D] Being family
[G] [Am] How did it come together?
[D] well
There's [G] the old ad in the paper though [D] Yeah
Special ad in the paper that [G] Susanna was running in Vicky and I [D] had this band going it didn't quite work out [G] and
Called up soon said hey, [D] Susanna.
Well actually sue called
[G]
My [D] roommate who gonna get technical?
Yes, right [G] sue called my roommate this gets real [D] confused then
didn't answer the [B] phone because she was in her room meditating, so [D] I answered the phone and
[G] Suzanne and I spoke [D] at length and
[G] Connected on a cosmic level and [D] we decided to join up space, but we work together well and a lot
[E] Writing we're rehearsing.
We're about to go into the studio
When we get home we get home and
We're just constantly you know with each other and [G] growing and learning, and I think it's a real [D] good experience
But then we also have outside [G] friends which is very nice
[E] We grew up in the valley in the valley
We [D] didn't and no one talked like that the valley and the beach people sort of migrated together and became one
Sort [B] of ended up with just like you know stupid accent
[D] Yeah
It [A]
was a
[Bm] From the beach actually [G] yeah, what are the kind of things you [E] do with your other friends?
Oh, is [B] it that you perhaps couldn't do with the members of the band?
[A] have sex
Yeah, that's one
[G] You do [D] there's wonderful oceans
California [E] you surf the classic [D] California thing to do
[G] [D] Body sir, but [G] not
Boogie [D] board what's that?
[Am] Short surfboard and you [D] take it out there
So [G] you lay on under some more controls and body sir
[D]
It's [G] fine.
That's an early way and like [D] ride it to the shore you need a tail
I the bangles is pretty much a kind of a 60s name isn't it I mean bangles [E] themselves came from the 60s
[G]
That's
Well by that state we're [D] floored because we were the original name of the band was the [N] supersonic bangs
which was taken from a
1965 Esquire magazine that my brother had with Ed Sullivan wearing a beetle wig on the cover [D] and there was a whole series of
[F] Hairdo's listed and one of them was the supersonic bang since we all have supersonic bangs
Oh, I see these are bones, but but we changed that after five minutes of being the supersonic bangs
We decided it might be too long.
It's a we were so we streamlined it and we were the [G] bangs
for a while
But we [D] didn't realize it had certain connotations over here.
Oh sure we we knew that but we were just the same connotations over there
[G] Oh, yeah, we actually like that part, but but then we leave we were forced to change [Db] our name to the bangles
I say [G] you see you're engrossed in that what books that this one is death of a rolling stone
[D] A cheery [G] little number.
Yeah, it's no it's very sad.
It's the Brian Jones story.
It's a
[Dm] Have you [G] picked up on 60s stuff is it kind of second generation we were listening to the radio
We just were like four years old
So we were a little too young to go to the clubs our parents wouldn't let us go to the whiskey a go-go
We were where's that hard days night book?
We were demanding actually to see help even hard days night was something a [Ab] little bit before our [G] time although
Vicki and [D] Debbie have it memorized and they can recite the entire movie if you ask them to
Vicki
[G] But anyway
But that was sort of we were heavily into the Beatles
Everybody was he still you still listen to Beatles records.
I do
Yeah, [Em] what what does it go through phases where you listen to a particular LP?
Um, [D] I could listen to the same songs over and [E] over again and never ever get tired of them the early [B] stuff and I feel [G] fine
She's a woman [D] era was I [A] think that that was my favorite era.
Yeah for them
[E] How does this manifest itself in the bangles [G] now?
I?
Mean other things sound like lover boy
Yeah, well they're on our label I did say that a
Love a book love a boy or anything, but a 60s band.
Am I right?
Yeah, that was what I was trying to say
What does this mean a great job?
Well this girl film and TV annual?
That's Adam Faith, it was a big star over here in the [D] 60s who were your idols when you were little boys you fancy
I was [G] Billy mummy Billy.
Do you know who he is?
No, who's that?
He was not in Lost in Space that TV show he wait he started a band
He had a band for a while that George Martin produced really yeah, who did you say?
George Harrison, actually my my first crush was Mighty Mouse, but
From there on I work, you know, [D] I went to the actual flesh and blood [G] people.
I
Love George.
I
Still love George [D] the bangles ever done any sort of 60s covers.
I mean my granites.
What have you done?
Well our new song hazy shade of winter, but we've done pushing too hard by the seeds
What else we do a yard bird song?
Yeah, I'm not talking
We're forgetting a bunch I know
Who is it?
Who is it who decides then who in the band picks those?
We all do whoever can sing it and play it without
Who ever can actually sing it and play it at the same time gets to sing it.
That's pretty much how it [D] works
Look at this guy.
[G] Oh, man.
Do you remember him?
I don't
[E]
Barry Coe, maybe he was before our time to [D] certainly before.
Yeah, I think [Bb] that's fair to say
