The Lost Recordings Recorded

There has been an enormous amount of interest lately about the reappearance on the pop culture radar of the once-famous Country and Western star, Colonel Foz.  Colonel Foz, as you know, was world famous back in the 60’s and 70’s when he was touring with such international acts as George Jones, Tammy Wynette, Lynrd Skynrd, Gramm Parsons and Emmy Lou Harris, The Rolling Stones, David Bowie, The Sex Pistols, Frank Zappa, and Wayne Newton. 

He was also romantically attached to each of these great performers as well as Gretta Garbo, Mary Todd Lincoln (during her “crazy” years), Richard Nixon and Bond Villain Nick Nack.  Colonel Foz has lived long and seen it all, but unfortunately for audiences of the digital age, has yet to complete an album.

Like many great artists The Colonel can be a bit self-sabotaging, and the reason, as you well could guess, lies in The Bottle.  He has done some of his best work in there, but for obvious reasons, what is made in The Bottle, stays in The Bottle.  He occasionally disappears into a fog of sobriety, severely hampering his creative output.

Still, we here in Chicago are incredibly lucky because Our Hero, Sean Flannery recently discovered Colonel Foz while trying to retrieve keys from a urinal at The Beat Kitchen, rinsed him off, and brought him back into the limelight as the musical feature performer at The Blackout Diaries.  That, as you know, is the monthly pageant of dissipation occurring at the Beat Kitchen that was recently named by The Red Eye newspaper as, “The greatest thing ever, including monotheism!”

Read it for yourself.  Here it is:

After you read it, get your tickets to The Blackout Diaries, and then show up at the Beat Kitchen this Saturday night, September 29, at 9:00 for fun and booze.  It costs 10 bucks.  Don’t be cheap - go!

And when you see Colonel Foz, buy him a drink and seduce him.  It’s your best chance of becoming a Bond Villain!
