The Boyz have spent many a ‘Hard Days Night’ over these last few years in Homan Studio “A” pontificating on all manner of subjects, which have produced a stockpile of recordings. Not everything makes the grade for release to the world. Only those recordings that tickle-the-entire-team in the studio are produced into a Hamlin Avenue Boyz Album of tracks.
No matter the weather, most often The Boyz arrive late in the evening parking in the darkened alley behind the studio. They come ready to enjoy each other’s company, the company of the studio staff and with an almost ‘ceremonial’ approach - the entire team will imbibe in some select herb. Only then do they signal the engineer with a ‘thumbs up’ to hit the record button and capture the come-what-may moments with the help of the always dependable studio staff of support. This scene continues sometimes through the night.
On this particular late-night, along with the many other unusual subjects of discussion, the Boyz got on a tangent that was quite surprising to say the least. As an example - ‘Dirty Feet’. That’s right we did just say that. Anything and everything related to da feet. Who knew there was so much to say. Who knew the younger generation generally doesn’t like the idea of feet or looking at them. At all. Who knew there was a solid reason for so much feet washing in biblical times. Feet had to have been real freakin dirty back then right? And who knew Vince does not want anyone touching his feet. “Nobody”! To quote an iconic audio artist from the past, Biggie Smalls (Notorious B.I.G.) “And If you don’t know. Now you know….”
So, enjoy you some ‘Dirty Feet’.
