WOAH I didn't expect this! I love Devo and all of the music Mark's made for TV, cartoons, movies and video games. I just noticed recently that the music from a lot of my favorite games and cartoons were made fully (or in part) by him. Even the Super Mario World cartoon opening theme, if any one remembers that.

I learned about DEVO in fourth grade, my friend Issac had two cool older brothers, he told me all about them before I ever got to hear them. He wound up owning his own record store Jackpot Records in my hometown. Record stores were heaven growing up during the kill the weirdo 8Os. Thanks guys!

I love Devo and all of Mark's work, even when I didn't know it was Mark's work. Hearing him talk, you can better understand the wit and wildness behind Devo. Nobody has ever read "Gravity’s Rainbow." Not even the author. It makes no sense. To grab inspiration from it takes inherent intelligence, creativity, and some seriously flexible thinking. Music sounding like Captain Beefheart and some 60s Italian sci fi movie that got early Devo kicked off of stages is music I'd like to hear. Richard Branson as a brain-eating ape is a fun take. Above all, Mark is so talented. Another great podcast. Thank you.

Holy cannoli ! Freedom of choice in the house hawkwolfers! First skating in a music video I ever saw. All around same time it was the movie foxes, some kinda after school special surf movie with a very young CAB, and Devo's freedom of choice! Wasn't Jay Smith in that video? Was it filmed in Reseda? Ok ok I'm gonna listen now- maybe he mentions? Stoooooked!

John Lydon's "security" was a guy called John Rambo, his best friend from childhood. Rambo was no joke man especially if he thought you were disrespecting John. Saw them in October just before Rambo passed away. He was on stage keeping an eye out and dancing the entire gig. Legend.

@beyondslantskill Ай бұрын

I'm almost as old as Mark. When I first heard Devo's Satisfaction on the radio (WXRT Chicago) in the '70's I did not catch the name of the artist. I was sure that it was Joan Armatrading doing a Stones cover. Then I heard it again and found out it was Devo, and they like me were from the rust belt. If I had to pick an all time favorite band it would be Devo. I saw them live twice The New Traditionalists tour at the Aragon in Chicago. Devo were on treadmills and everyone in the crowd were jumping up and down on folding chairs. I remember Bob1 climbing on top of the stack of amps and almost falling off. Then I saw Oh No I't's Devo tour in Merrillville Ind, couldn't be a more perfect place to hear booji boy sing Beautiful Word then that.👽🐇🕳
