Comment:
This is a vintage mix tape I made in September of 1988. There's no actual theme, except that it was music I was really digging at that time (although it suggests a future tape: songs with "heaven" in its title only in parenthesis!). At that time, I was into naming tapes with none or very loose themes after random phrases mentioned by friends. The moniker for this mix came from a response to a college dining hall comment that someone seemed to be chewing their food a great deal more than was necessary. Please note that the Cowboy Mouth used twice here is not the '90s New Orleans group but rather a one-album '80s band on Throbbing Lobster Records (fronted by the pseudonymous son of pop artist Roy Liechtenstein).Feedback:
... was this Cowboy Mouth any good?
This band with the name Cowboy Mouth was terrific. Very '80s indie rock sound. I've sometimes thought of their sound as The Go-Betweens meets early New Order (just take whatever that conjures in your mind and degrade the sound a little bit; that should be close).
thank you for the wayback machine to 1988. REM, roman holiday, and missing persons all hit the mark. i must have the missing persons tape in a drawer somewhere....
