Veteran Progressive Popster and DIY Pioneer, R. Stevie Moore, performing "Chantilly Lace" on the Uncle Floyd Show, 1980. For the audio cd version of "Chantilly Lace" get the essential Clack! (1980) for 12$ only at: http://www.rsteviemoore.com/tp/clack.html $upport the Artist Save R. Stevie "The godfather of home taping has a catalog of OVER 400 cassette/cd albums of songs, experiments, rants, goofy tape edits, radio phone-ins, record skips...you name it, he's done it, and his tapes are full of it. This is one of his best. Recorded on 8-track in 1979-80, CLACK! is 60 minutes of some of his best songs. It starts out with his ace power-pop remake of the Big Bopper's "Chantilly Lace", and it just gets better and better. His remake of Jim Reeve's "I Love You So Much It Hurts" is so dead-on it's scary. Other great knock-out tunes include the wonderful instrumental "Theme From Hurricane David", the beautiful "I Go Into Your Mind" (see video of 2004 remake: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9tUXzDrA8UI), the introspective "You Always Want What You Don't Have" , the new wave rocker "Same" (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fik5hGrR_sM) and my personal favorite, "Part Of The Problem" (see video at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C8oEwxFnjB8). Despite being criminally ignored by the American record industry, the guy keeps pluggin' along, crankin' out cds, 30 years later.

Feb 2, 2008 - I haven't looked very hard, but is seems all the clips from The Uncle Floyd Show on You Tube are guest musical performances. I got addicted to Uncle Floyd the summer of 1979. I vaguely remember this clip and one of the "Pictures On The Wall" was probably sent by me.
