[DraggDaddy]

One of the Best things I have ever ......I will take it to my Grave.

The Athens soundtrack ... I had it on tape cassette... The Flat Duo Jets blow everyone away..

[101Volts]

This sounds like a jukebox that started by itself in an abandoned dance hall that was once a very popular place in the 50s. Haunting... Still there to remind people but its not what it was. But that's one thing I like about this.

[wadothepimp]

whats the name of this song???

[astar334]

@wadothepimp Girl on my mind-Buddy Holly

[JawboxKoppelganger]

re: whitestripesbuzz: I've got the full length, i found it on...first, your testicle, please

[whitestripebuzz]

@JawboxKoppelganger whats your address? i will pack it in ice and mail it to you tomorrow.

[PersistenceMusic]

Did they ever actually lay this down in the studio? This performance has made them my new favorite band!

[JawboxKoppelganger]

@PersistenceMusic It's on a soundtrack, about the Athens, GA. scene. The documentary was re-issued recently on dvd. There is a vinyl soundtrack, of the doc. However, it was released in 84'-85.' I do know where you can purchase it from-still sealed.

[JawboxKoppelganger]

@PersistenceMusic here's the proper title: V/A - Athens, GA-Inside & out.-IRS Records 1985. It's the soundtrack to the film. This label is waaaay defunct, and the Lp, out of print.

[PersistenceMusic]

@JawboxKoppelganger  Nice work my friend! Im gonna dig around to see if i can come across the documentary you speak of. I was like a maniac yesterday looking for"Two Headed Cow" and gave up after 3 hours.

[Miztorif]

Does anyone know if there is a full recording of this anywhere???

[adeeeeee123]

does anyone know the chords he uses?

[PersistenceMusic]

@adeeeeee123 If you watch closely you can see. C, Am, Dm, G

[warmwarmerdisco]

this band has a great sound can we stop talking about that other band now?

[CBamProductions]

best version of Girl On My Mind. I didn't think anything could beat the Buddy Holly version, but damn.

[JDOCD123]

Jack never sold out, he's just a lot more successful and he doesn't always stick to one sound...

[jbearden]

oh, this is very fine!!

[astar334]

But Dex did not sell out like Jack. Listen to Dex to get honest. Listen to Jack to feed the machine.

[Circumpunk]

@astar334 yep.

[jarbo26]

@astar334 Thats because Dexter never had the oppurtunity to sell out or else he would have but in the same respect if you think that Jack sold out you should probably reevaluate every band you've ever listened to because Jack has always been the same since the beginning of the WHITE STRIPES.

[gregrocks90046]

I would say this is early 90's, not early 80's.

[Luke5321]

@gregrocks90046 This is definately mid 80's. This was about the time they were on Cutting Edge which went off the air in 87

[jks2]

@gregrocks90046 1985 to be exactly :)

[GeorgeDeadson]

Don't compare Jack and Dex. Because they are both great, and you cant really compare their styles.

[moosetricks]

i wouldn't say "dexter pisses over jack" in any way shape or form. listening to the duo jets in studio, they're a rockabilly band at their core, jack takes that formula and elaborates upon it tenfold with elements of blues, soul, hard rock, and folk. jack has almost undeniably become a more versatile and exciting guitarist/songwriter than dexter ever was.

[GeorgeDeadson]

the best spent 58 seconds of my whole life.

[hoju85]

@GeorgeDeadson

i agree

[SC515]

I have this cd. good clip saw them a few time. Thanks for posting.

[whitestripebuzz]

58 seconds just aint long enough. i would give my right testicle to have a full version on my ipod.

[AirplaneRadio]

@whitestripebuzz Oh my god I know. I actually messaged him on Myspace asking if he had a full version of this.

[FrancisIIIBibeau]

lol and you like the whites tripes 2 XDthey are ver ysimilar arent hey

[whitestripebuzz]

Yeah but Dexter pisses all over Jack i'm afraid. I haven't listened to the stripes since i found the duo jets. Its like drinking Jack Daniels all your life, but then you find a 30 year old scotch. You just don't look at the Jack Daniels in the same way again.

[MexicanHumanoid]

And I'll donate my left. I've explored their whole catalog. This 58 seconds is my favorite.

[jjyarbo]

@whitestripebuzz its worth it dude!

[koldry]

@whitestripebuzz You really don't know how hard is the life with one testicle or with ill ones. So don't make such silly jokes. Mine are okay, but I have friends with that kind of problems. It's really unhappy life...

[digitalsidewalk]

my favorite band

[bakersakter]

@digitalsidewalk YESSSSSSSSSSS they fucking rockl

[redmeatheart]

one of the best performances i've ever heard

[TrickGnomeTechnician]

@redmeatheart are you kidding? lol

[TrickGnomeTechnician]

noise

[vogelpoop]

cover of Buddy Holly's Girl on my Mind..

and an excellent but completely unfindable one... very frustrating.

[Dayyyv]

I sympathise, this is the best thing I've ever heard.
