CTT’s They Don’t Make ‘Em Like They Used To: Palindrome by The Ophelias
They Don’t Make ’em Like The Used To: Just one song by the Ophelias. An 80s band from San Francisco. PALINDROME. It’s incredible. I must have listened to it ten thousand times as a teen.

CTT: Adriano Celentano – Prisencolinensinainciusol
I don’t know if it’s true but I heard this was an English teacher in Italy who thought it was ridiculous how Italian kids were singing along to songs in English but not understanding which of the sounds were even words. This is his hip sounding fake American song.

Perfect art pop project. This really makes me want a time machine. The dude who posted these said a friend of his owned this cafe which is cool.

He also mentioned that this is just before their first record came out.

At the end Fred says something and then says “I’m a waiter”. Classic. Uh, yeah. Not for long, Fred.

They Don’t Make ‘Em Like They Used To: Devo
Devo. This was probably thee band of my life. Until the Dandys. They were even cooler than I knew. God I love the youtubes.
I particularly love their jealousy and ridicule of the “normal” middle class and rednecks. They are from Ohio so it makes al lot of sense now.
Incredible amount of thought in these videos. Bursting with ideas and energy and hot geek sexuality.

They Don’t Make Em Like They Used To: Bill Blass
You may know Bill Blass cuz he was the greatest fashion designer of all time. Never sat for a portrait without a cigarette. Designed four years of the Lincoln Continental. And now i found these. God I want to be this cool.
