Song Of the Day:October 20, 2005

The Gigolo Aunts - Weird Sister

From the Compilation CD Yellow Pills Vol. 3,
Big Deal Records, 1995


The Gigolo Aunts have been mix-tape regulars for a number of years now, owing largely to great singles like "Bloom," and "Where I Find My Heaven." This, however, is my favorite Aunts track. We like a good story, and the realtionship between the narrator and the song's title character is recounted with marvelous attention to detail, wry humor, and most importantly, a touching and genuine warmth.

I used to know these guys, the guitar playing brother Phil was like the nicest guy in the entire world! Oh to long again for a Boston where bands like this and the Cavedogs were staples!
