Never would have pegged Moulty for a junkie. At least, not so early on...<br /><br />Then again, I suppose circumstances placed him in a particularly vulnerable position. Him, and a lot of other kids. For wildly differing reasons.<br /><br />Cheers. I&#39;ve always liked this song too. Very cool.ibhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08788986697776895039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4098597609690200933.post-24705132248154541622010-02-09T19:44:14.491Z2010-02-09T19:44:14.491Zi knew Moulty when he went to Thompson Academy, a school in Boston Harbor,which was a private school for &quot;wayward&quot; boys.

Great that you should have those memories from Provincetown and the shared family connection.<BR/><BR/>I'd love to see that photograph. If there's any way you might e-mail me a scan of it, I'd more than happy to post it along with credits to share with Moulty fans. Ace.<BR/><BR/>Good luck with tracking down a vinyl copy of their LP; vinyl surely does sound so much better.<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the comment.

There are so many of them that you are bound to forget someone important. My personal Boston favorites are the various combinations of (the) Lyres, but they're not a particularly well known band. I'll have to admit that I don't know Pixies or Morphine at all. I just had to give Jonathan his due. If it's request time, I'd love to hear a duet with Mo Tucker.Jonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06406948739451124566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4098597609690200933.post-84114506479708159842008-07-21T15:28:00.000+01:002008-07-21T15:28:00.000+01:00Shit! You're right, Jon. How could I manage to leave out Jonathan Richman ?<BR/>I'm very possibly hitting the pre-senility factor here...<BR/><BR/>I posted "Roadrunner" over on Art Decade previously, but I really oughtta dig out his duet with Mo Tucker or something...ibhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08788986697776895039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4098597609690200933.post-87564857641328006252008-07-21T15:15:00.000+01:002008-07-21T15:15:00.000+01:00You forgot Jonathan Richman.Jonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/06406948739451124566noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4098597609690200933.post-72386010266196053062008-07-21T12:08:00.000+01:002008-07-21T12:08:00.000+01:00Thanks, wzjn. When you get down to it, there are a huge number of great bands out of Massachusetts; Pixies are one of my favourite groups ever, and I'm nearly as fond of Morphine.<BR/><BR/>At some point in the future, I definitely intend to pay my respects in more detail.<BR/><BR/>Cheers!ibhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08788986697776895039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4098597609690200933.post-84460001158941117242008-07-21T11:20:00.000+01:002008-07-21T11:20:00.000+01:00Great song choice by a great band from here in Mass. I enjoy the album as a 'period piece' and agree with you that they rivaled their contemporaries as a raw 'bad boy' band.<BR/><BR/>Go Moulty!wzjnhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/09671305119473704510noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4098597609690200933.post-24893806005390851202008-07-20T23:15:00.000+01:002008-07-20T23:15:00.000+01:00Cool. I'd like to have seen Vic Molten in action, but I'm just happy really to know a couple of their 45s.<BR/><BR/>Apparently, they reformed sometime in the 80s or later, but they look now like they'd be more comfortable playing for a Rotarians' Supper Club.ibhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08788986697776895039noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4098597609690200933.post-69429143532412168882008-07-20T22:43:00.000+01:002008-07-20T22:43:00.000+01:00I have a friend from Massachusetts who was surprised to learn that I knew who the Barbarians were.
