Desert Sessions : Eccentric Man

[FuzzHelmet]

are they gonna do a boxset of all the desert sessions? i heard this as a rumour a few years back and since it seems to have gone away. i hope they do

[badoocee]

I dig this song. Thanks MOTARDkamikaze.

[TheRockandroll420]

hey hats the easy rider guy

[ray123ification]

I think it's ok, just dont sound gritty enough to me, unlike the original.

[YAS62ftw]

Sounds like Meatloaf a little bit

[adiosa850]

mario lalli

[matdoomn]

Love this version. Tony McPhee would be proud.

[triplettam]

@matdoomn Except for the guitar work. Great arrangement though.

[marrythejuana]

This is so awesome! Top of my "bucket list" is getting invited to a Desert Session - man that would be heaven!

[Doyalsan]

Is that an Easy Rider piece of cover art? Lord, I want to jump on a song and sing this motorcycle now. (yes, it was intentional.)

[natetodamax]

Oh sweet, it's the singer from Fatso Jetson!

[GianTheMan91]

anyone else think the intro sounds alot like walkin on the sidewalks by qotsa.

[alphawerewolf8]

So. Freakin. Awesome. can i dowload this anywhere?

[SpainishArcher]

Talk about heavy metal !

Reminds me of when I 1st saw Sabbath in about 1970.

[tim0sp]

@SpainishArcher This is a cover of the song by the Groundhogs. This song is also from 1970.

[dailyjoy]

@SpainishArcher Probably something to do with it being a cover from The Groundhogs who were releasing records and touring at this time.

[pred09ale]

großartig - awesome.

[Vulnavia69]

Ohmy eccentricman, where ru?

[williiamm23]

Call me eccentric man, I already know i am

[Wiruebermensch]

Good cover. Really good cover.

[RichieGrowsChillies]

Yup, is Mario Lalli alright... Great tune, think it's a cover...

[ConiferTreez]

@RichieGrowsChillies seriously? You think it's a cover?

[RichieGrowsChillies]

@ConiferTreez Yeah, think the original was done by The Groundhogs...

[randomdude19]

is it me or does this remind me of jimi hendrix?

[ConiferTreez]

@randomdude19 no it reminds you of the Groundhogs, as it is a Groundhogs cover?

[three8two5]

@ConiferTreez this is very true...i sadly realized that after i posted this, haha.

[fuckamericanidiot]

@randomdude19 kind of

[fenham01]

@randomdude19 - no you're right.. had I not seen the comments I would have said the same and convinced I was almost right.. ;)

[modelworker]

I would have expected a more creative cover. Really. The original shits all over this one.

[ifkgubben91]

love the album cover :D from the best stonner movie ever : Easyrider

[skunkradioDOTnet]

love this song, play it all the time on my radio show

[MrBlasticus]

@skunkradioDOTnet you should play the original version. like posted after your comment, it does shit all over this. However, its awesome that someone covered a Groundhogs tune. That whole album is freakin great

[skunkradioDOTnet]

@MrBlasticus the originals great, but it doesnt pack the same kind of intensity as with mario lalli, imo

[Conifer44]

the guy on the cover looks like Peter Fonda from Easy Rider. thats fuckin Bad ass.

[theredkatana]

It's an image manipulation of Easy Rider's movie poster. and yeah its a pretty badass cover

[NuclearGuru350]

This sounds like Mario Lalli singing...it also sounds a shit-load like the singer from The Who

[0Mexicola0]

have you heard the who?

[NuclearGuru350]

What? I'm wasn't saying it IS Daltrey, but you really can't hear the similarities in this song?

[0Mexicola0]

haha not really no:P

[mobiusonethree]

Yeahm, thats Boomer

[PhillipThunderGrunge]

listening to Desert Sessions is like having a musical threesome...with some babes named Melody and Funk..

[alexohncoe]

Dude, you have to admit that "Funk" is an odd name for a chick you wanna have a threesome with!

[PhillipThunderGrunge]

@alexohncoe hey if she has the motion in the ocean...then i'm all good..

[zzoot]

LOL

[Sw1ebertje]

@PhillipThunderGrunge

Best reply ever....

[badoocee]

@PhillipThunderGrunge , Well put and clever, good one.

[MrKingkz]

fucking cool song thats a groovy man

[experiencedspirit]

Great cover of The Groundhogs -Eccentric Man.....thx...........good to see some keeping the 'Hogs legend alive!

[noogleman]

this is a fantastic cover, but what happened to the original lyrics? my overcoat is full of poison???

[bluethunderthighs]

@noogleman They probably just misheard the lyrics and didn't check to see if the original words were available anywhere (eg the official Tony McPhee website). Still a great cover though, I like "free spoon glue" instead of "fish bone glue".

[JamieBarnes11]

Fucking Hell, this is awesome. Huge fan of both Groundhogs and the whole Stoner Rock/Desert Rock thing. So the two coming together like this is dope!

[iluvqotsaforever]

Awesome, like the rest of desert sessions.

[jussiohman]

You should love Desert/stoner and everything that belongs in it!!!

[ELGROOVER]

Can't recall ever hearing a cover of a Groundhogs song before. It's a good one ☺

[djAbrasive]

love the chorus by the way

[djAbrasive]

who's the singer?

[MOTARDkamikaze]

I'm not 100% sure, but going by the sound of his voice and that he work on this session my guess is Mario Lalli from Fatso Jetson

[djAbrasive]

thx :)

[cultcat0711]

you are correct

[bicbic272]

@MOTARDkamikaze i reckon you are dead right.

[dumpelito]

@MOTARDkamikaze

japp...that´s him!!!

[cultcat0711]

mario lalli is singing - he was in fatso jetson then - much heavier - he has done a lot of interesting music

[adaneluz]

@djAbrasive Josh Homme, from Queens of the stone age.

[247randomshit]

@adaneluz are you deaf

[julguitar]

@djAbrasive Mario Lalli

[beelzebozos]

this song was originally done by a band called The Groundhogs, u should check them out

[kingofthunder1991]

mario lalli e' un maestro...

[Teuchterdavie]

Call me an eccentric man!

But I don't believe I am!

Yaay! :D

[lafwanda]

This is the first time iv heard this song, instantly love it

[kachlezbalkonu]
