July 2025: Latest Releases — What's New Is Old Again
An Occasional Publication
Howdy Folks -
Hope y'all are enjoying summertime and avoiding the floods, fires, and extreme heat. Here along the Monterey Bay coast, we've been super lucky so far this year with mild temps and no smoke (yet).
Since our last installment, we've released a couple of new tunes — one never before released song that is old but newly relevant and one new one telling an old story of teenage infatuation.
There's A Girl
This tune was written last year and recorded this past June. In it, the year is 1973 and our teenage protagonist has fallen head over heels for the girl of his dreams who just happens to be half again his age and currently going out with their mutual friend. A true story.
The video version is complete with lyrics and photos from The Oso Family archive taken at a few different Northern California locations.
While recently reviewing some old live recordings we did at a Durango, Colorado resort in 1990, it dawned on us that it was time to revive this particular recording. This song of Penny's has never been released before in any form, so consider this to be a belated premiere. And since it seems rather relevant at this moment, we threw together a video to go with it. So, time to do some venting — just think of the most revolting shithead in your life and then sing along!
