Timbuk 3 - Count To 10

[devabarry]

Wally was a bit of a percussion pioneer, really. Specific to 1 or 2-person rock/pop acts like Timbuk 3, that is.

[devabarry]

sort of the best band ever

Great song. Nice percussion by the guy in Mork and Mindy spacesuit. He looks a bit like a young Paul Mcartney. Anyways IMHO what he's playing sounds way better than a crappy drum machine.

[devabarry]

@jonnylag That's Wally Ingram. And absolutely, yes, things got better when Wally came along.

A hidden gem - Thank you Timbuk 3!

A group that had all of what it takes. If others did not see it they were blind. Calling them one hit wonders, makes me wonder if they heard them at all. True greatness in sound, in lyrics and consistanly putting out incredible music. The CD Big Shot in the Dark is only one of many fantastic CDs from start to finish. Sunshine both versions, Border Crossing, Mudflap Girl, Dady's Down in the Mine. need I say more. I am glad to see pat mAcdonald still doing great music. I had lost track.

I wish someone would upload the concert they perform on Austin City Limits. There's this one song they perform called "Will You Still Love Me When I'm Dead" that I can't find anywhere. Not even on any file sharing program. I think they never recorded this song and I don't know if it's an original Timbuk 3's song but it's one of their best.

@kimbaptise you can get the whole ACL performance on a new cd that's just been released on the SB United label. "Will You Still Love Me" is on the disc!

Thanks for posting this. I love this band so much.

Wow. Thanks for this. I miss Timbuk3. They left a HUGE hole that's no one's filled. I think if they hadn't had the hit "My Futures so Bright" more people would know the rest of their music.
