Skunk Eye Spar The tiki gods of the Tiki Gods were spotted out behind the little shanty tarpaulin of a little land-locked bar where strangers of the universe are widely-known to find their sips of solace in crazed cups in a spot called Skunk Eye Spar There's Tiger Lily at a low settee with her chubby Chinese chums. They're flirting with the spider monkey who tends to tend the bar. The kahuna from the basement carves the teeth away from gums of the skulls they leave upon the floor of rugged Skunk Eye Spar. NightHawk and the Vaginauts are haggling for their custom in the shadow of a bamboo go-down behind a cliff of vines. The grotesquerie of mugs that haunt the fringes of the dive monitor their odds for any luck between the lines. Foolbert Hic-Pipkin drinks his beans from a can, then tosses the empty vessel back into the lonely sea of stars, and joins the rumbling mumbling of the life assembled there for some unforgettable taste of beauty from inside those ugly jars. The White Devil is holed up there and he'll never get too far from the bleary scowls and robotic owls of this long-forgotten bar. White Devil is holed up there 'cause he knows he won't get far past the reprobates he cultivates in Skunk Eye Spar... ...where you can hear the oceanic echo of outer space... Popeye and B'wana Don were here when things were newer: before the fall, before the wall, before the inner scar. Jimgrim and Chullunder Ghose mapped the span of tomorrow from that table in the corner, there, converging from afar. The tiki gods of the tiki gods are hovering out behind the little ratty tarpaulin of a tiny land-locked bar where the loners of the universe are sometimes said to find a sip of solace with the crazed mugs of Skunk Eye Spar. The White Devil is holed up there and he'll never get too far from the furtive scowls and alien owls of his long-forgotten bar. White Devil is holed up there 'cause he knows he won't get far past the reprobates they cultivate down in Skunk Eye Spar.

Conchsuckers I tumbled out of my hammock this morning and I stumbled through the high grass and as I peered in through my own back window I caught a brief glimpse of my past. You jumped up off me and spilled all your coffee and the man that was me upped and fled. It kinda upset me, my appetite left me so I came on back out to my shed. I thought about all of our years together, all the things we never have done. Oh how I wish we could trade all the misery for the times we had so much fun. I guess that it's over. I'm back to the rover you once hauled in from the beach. I give you my blessin' and thanks for the lessons you were always so ready to teach. Conchsuckers is where you will always live in my mind and my memories. Conchsuckers was always our secret place, a ramshackle dive in the Keys. I'm leaving you everything I have to give, like I always do. I hope he's eager to learn conchsucking too. Conchsuckers is where you will always live in my heart and my memories. Conchsuckers is everyone's secret place, a ramshackle dive in the Keys. I took out the garbage and did all the household chores that you had asked me to do. I mowed your lawn, I did all your laundry, and even some of his too. I wish you the both the very best and the child you'll be giving birth to. I hope he's ready to learn conchsucking too.

about

Cosmic yacht rock, surf, tropical, exotica and Tiki tunes selected from the Musaphonic back catalogue, tailored for your next beach outing or for that future outer space adventure you've been planning. It's always five o'clock somewhere in the universe!

“...like notes from Duane Eddy in outer space."
- Will Viharo, www.thrillville.net

"Tony Arnold has a clever hand at turning things into pounding epics while retaining a simplistic charm at the nucleus of these explosive songs." www.soniccuriosity.com

"Not only is the music very accessible and melodic, but the more complicated passages and solos are not overindulgent and do not venture into territory too unfamiliar, which are usually some of the complaints from those not into progressive rock music." - Scott Homewood, www.rockandrollreport.com
