The Season of Giving
In December of 1989, Shunt, Mutt, and the Journeymen reunited for the 41st time with legendary producer Jimmy ‘James’ Bladon. The result was a legendary charity album entitled ‘The Journeymen On Ice (And Speed).’ After a barn collapse where the tapes were stored, only one track survived. ‘The Season Of Giving’ hit the Billboard charts at 1,312 and by noon the same day was already at 1,310. Now, remixed, remastered, and remembered, the song is presented to you here, free of charge and free of apologies. God bless us, everyone.

Sam Elliott
DIAGNOSIS: Schizoid Personality Disorder
CASE HISTORY: The gravelly baritone of cowboy-poet Sam Elliott could assuage the last nickel from a Cincinnati skin-flint. Elliott is the most sought after voice over artist in the western world. His warm, rough delivery of the written word could sell water to a well, sand to a beach, and stars to a clear midsummer’s night. But c’mon, let’s get serious here. A beach doesn’t have a wallet. It’s a beach. Use your doggone brain for more than thirty seconds and get your head in the game, Templeton. For Custer’s sake, you’re better than this. Now let’s all go rope something.
David Bowie
DIAGNOSIS: Histrionic Personality Disorder
CASE HISTORY: David Bowie is a starman, glam-king, and Grammy award winning artist. His career has explored space, time, love, war, and spiders. Bowie is a member of the rock and roll hall of fame and was this close to being cast as Mr. Belvedere.

Superego Sampler: Shunt McGuppin
DIAGNOSIS: Antisocial Personality Disorder
CASE HISTORY: Shunt McGuppin is a dyed-in-the-wool American legend. Country music hasn’t been the same since this surly, uneducated prodigy burst onto the Nashville scene in 1966 and proceeded to piss away his musical genius on bad booze, bad drugs and bad women…that were fat. Shunt has toured with Willie Nelson, Mutt Taylor, Waylon Jennings and Johnny Cash. He began his career with Timmy Tomlin and the Fuckhead Band. McGuppin produced Starship’s last two albums. He currently resides in Los Angeles, California.
