Brownsville Station The Martian Boogie

[KiteFlyingVespa]

Heard this on the radio tonight. Immediately fell in love.

[2Zero8discipline]

Takes me back to 1977 sitting in the basement of my best friend Chris's house listening to his brother Dana's old records. We would smoke weed that he got from his older brother Tony and have a blast. Boy, I really miss those days and all the freedoms that we had as teenagers growing up in the 70s. The world changed so much and the crap they call music now days sucks. I sure do miss the great Acid Rock records of your brothers Chris and all the good times I shared at your house with Tammy Dodge!

Eat sit 'n' gulp.

ICP and Eminem make me ashamed to be a Michigander. Brownsville Station takes away that shame

[kayakrazy1]

Can't believe the local "classic" rock station here in the Detroit area doesn't have this in their rotation. Back in the day, when I was living in Northern Michigan, we had to "rig" our antennas just to bring it in. Now....NO RESPECT!!

[livingdeadbtu]

EAT was a real burger joint back in the day - it was usually at truck stops

[livingdeadbtu]

It gets Air time in San Antonio !!

[tattoofu]

Produced by Eddie Kramer! Really good album; if it had been on a real record label instead of Private Stock it might have had a chance. As far as I know all of Private Stock's master tapes are missing.

[kayakrazy1]

Why doesn't this get any play on the "air quotes" 'Classic Rock' stations??? I demand to know!! Stop recycling the insipid and start 'spinning' some of the greater classics!!! :)

[oneeye4263]

@kayakrazy1 because it has drug connotations that are against the federal govt's illegal war on the us citizens and requires intelligence to under stand which we know there is no one in govt with a shred of intelligence or they would shoot them selves for working for this illegal corporation called the federal government

[summer1859]

That's weird Everybody's talking about St. Louis because I actually live in St. Louis; my Dad actually told me about this song.

[rchemsales]

Where do u get those Crayons?

[TheSparks77]

[Thadesgal]

One person did not eat the crayons... 

[chrismancandy]

I love the way this song rocks.I first heard it on KSHE-94.7

[chrismancandy]

[cgronlie]

Love this song. KSHE-95 in St. Louis used "BOOGIE CAPITAL OF THE USA" All the time on the station. Those were the days :D

[Davidthorough]

@cgronlie Too cool! An old HS buddy just put this up on his Facebook and both of us used to listen to this... ON KSHE~95!!! I used to put my speakers on either side of my head and at 4:59... I'd BLAST IT!!!

[cgronlie]

@Davidthorough Small world eh? :D

[oldboytoys]

I was stationed at an AF base in New Mexico at the time this came out - Yes, I saw martians there ;)

[brennieb64]

For so many years, people here thought I was crazy when I mentioned this song. Thanks for posting this! Now I feel vindicated for all those times people told me I was an idiot.

[Pagirl1986]

My friends and I listened to this on a 45 when we were kids, still love this song, great job on the video!

[blickcd]

Been a long time since I heard this one on a late night rock show on WSMI, a small town farm-oriented radio station in Illinois. Never heard it any place else. Thanks for posting it.

Good job on this. Thanks for sharing

[shanferg1]

Brownsville Station was awesome could use a few of those Martian Cigarettes right about now to ease my troubled mind.

[futuremath08]

I wish I could download this from Amazon or ITunes. 

[futuremath08]

Love this video and the song! I have been trying to find this song on a cd, but I haven't had any luck.

[TheDigitalGuy1]

This animation is GREAT!

[drprogensteinphp]

Great stuff! I still own the 1977 vinyl self titled LP this song originally appeared on. Sad it's never seen re-issue...

I posted a video response with one of my videos; "My Friend Jack", which also appeared on the same LP...hope you don't mind :)

[TheGreatWhiteHead]
