Twenty Questions
Seattle Weekly plays Jukebox Jury with the Posies.
The dB’s: “Black and White” (1981) from Stands for Decibels (IRS) and Flamin’ Groovies: “I Can’t Hide” (1976) from Shake Some Action (Sire)
Ken Stringfellow: [as dB’s play] Is this the song we left off Failure? [laughs] Is that the dB’s?
Jon Auer: It could be Mitch Easter– or Don Dixon–produced. It definitely has the Mitch Easter sound of the early R.E.M. recordings.
Stringfellow: [dB’s drummer] Will Rigby wanted to be in the Posies. [Flamin’ Groovies begins] Is that the Brian Jonestown Massacre? [laughs]
