What’s That Song?
In the last few weeks I’ve gotten a bunch of inquiries about a particular song on our playlist.
The song in question is “Little Boxes” by Malvina Reynolds. Most of the inquiries refer to it as the Ticky Tacky song. It can be heard here..
Showtime subscribers will recognize it as the theme song to Weeds.
Malvina Reynolds was a contemporary of folk legend Pete Seeger. Seeger actually made more of an impact with his own version of this song in the 60′s.
The song is a political satire about the suburbanization of America during the 1960′s. The term Little Boxes refers to Suburban Housing all looking the same and Ticky Tacky is a reference to the shoody materials that were allegedly being used to construct these houses.
If you hear a song in our store that you are curious about drop me a line @ tucker@smokendudesbbq.com. I’ll be glad to help you out.

Music Spotlight – This Ain’t No Tribute
While enjoying a meal in our dining room you may hear some familiar songs presented in new ways. In our quest to make our playlist fresh but also accessible we decided to include a series of Blues Tribute albums to well known artists.
Led Zeppelin, The Rolling Stones, Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin and Eric Clapton were all heavily influenced by the blues artists that came before them. In the 90s Blues players old and new got together to cover these Rock N Roll greats. The results are incredible and interesting.
Casual blues fans will recognize names like Bo Diddley and Buddy Guy who do wonders covering their friend Eric Clapton, but the true gems the unexpected ones. Magic Slim takes Led Zeppelin’s When The Levee Breaks back to its Delta roots; Clarence “Gatemouth” Brown takes the Ventilator Blues to heights the Sones never dreamed.
Younger players like Chris Thomas King, Eric Gales and Derek Trucks show up to put new spins on the classics we love.
What makes this set more interesting than your average tribute is that the performers involved have the skill and confidence to rework familiar songs in new ways. Just listen to what Gatemouth Brown does to “Rock n’ Roll.”
The albums are all available individually or as a box set and would make a great Christmas gift for the music fan on your list.
