R. Stevie Moore - I Not Listening (1974)

[realjohnhammond]

Where's the version without drums? I have a version on my Phonography album without drums

Ah, so I wasn't the only kid to arrange my Lego into different groups of colour!

[dontneednomofovhs]

this sounds like it's got an extra drum track on it compared to the 'original version' on phonograph?

The video clips are from "Drugs Are Like That" which is on youtube, of course.

Cool video!

Way beyond their time... if you tell me that this song its from 2009 I didn't doubt it.

I might be wrong. I might be an asshole. I'll take my lumps if I prove to be for saying this but I call bullshit.

It's an awesome hoax.

...or am I just stating the obvious?

[djl548]

i dont know what youre saying but i am feeling compelled to give you a thumbs down

[hanaforward]

I love the pairing of the weird film footage and the song very much - where did you find this bizarre educational film, autosam?? Also, thanks so much for putting up all this R Stevie Moore stuff, it's all totally and completely wonderful.

[autosam]

i found it somewhere on the tube

but already incorporated into a great collage:

This is too fucking awesome.

[qiput]

TRULY the best

I have a different version of this song on Phonography, but this version is way cooler.

[ichiromito]

Song is great! The video is awesome! it's edited really well with the song. Brilliant all around!

[207tv]

Wow, this was recorded in 1974??? Good stuff! Pretty damn avante garde for that time. There's a band called "home" that broke-up a few years ago that sounds a little like this.

[egdeltur666]

well, not compared to, like, Silver Apples and old-school Zappa (plus mothers), but yeah, its way far-out!

are those hypodermic & pill wipes a metaphor for the nightmare descent into booze and pills?

whooooooooooooooo carrrrrrrrrrrrrrrreezzzzzzzzzz­zzzz

zzzzzzzzz

Whoa! I remember watching this film in 3rd grade. It's called "Drugs are like that". THe film was so bad, the whole class started mocking it while we were watching it. The teacher was pretty embarrassed...great song by the way!! The R. roxx!!

[blefusku]

i watch this everyday, i think its wonderful, not the same version included in phonography, but great too. thanks stevie for your wonderful music!!!!!!!!!!!!

[rsmko]

same version as phonography, however drastic alt mix with drum overdubs and a middle section which wholly got edited for the album version. i remember "home" (90's tampa band)! great stuff.

[the486kid]

fuk, that is so awesome.. Autosam.. for several nights.. I've just been blown away by the body of Stevie's work represented up here on Youtube. It's killing me that I'm just another struggling artist, without much loot to send out to others. damn. wish I had a Gold Franc to send him!

[bzzzbzzz]

great

[autosam]

well, it was edited...

[RobertCohn97]

was it not?

[ichiromito]

yes, phonography is a great album... what's all this awesome film footage from???

[autosam]

good question. some weird 60s educational movie, most probably about kids and drugs...

[RobertCohn97]

nice video! and this was made with a 4-track recorder! Sweet!
