Timbuk 3 used to busk on Sixth Street*, I think they were one small step above homeless.

I dig this. funky. hi class
it was fresh then and it's still fresh now. great tunes on this classic album ... play more Bill!
Wow...total blast from the past!! While I didn't listen to their albums, I remember a track by Timbuk 3 on a CD that featured different types of low-end music, from the super bass-heavy electronic music, to slap-bass, upright bass on jazz and classical, etc. etc. I barely remember the song but the name stuck with me. Must have been on one of their last albums as I got my first loud-system in 1995.
Thanks to the DJ for pulling this one out of NOWHERE!! Long Live RP!!
The entire disk is full of great songs with a rather dark and unique sense of humor... hope a few more cuts (maybe "Just another Movie")can be added to the rotation. Good stuff as far as the late 80s go.
...So.....weird!
Bill just played SCOTS, I commented that they sound like these guys.
Or is there a connection?
I saw these two just as "Future" was about to take off. They knew it was going to kill their career. They were goodand funthat night, and judging by what's happening in music today, I'd say about 20 years too early.
