Body Dumper Track for Week of March 22, 2010.
“Chasin’ Ladies” by Dust is this week’s BD jam. This song was released in 1971 and features Marky Ramone on drums. This was his first band and certainly pre-dates The Ramones. He was only 16 when this album was released. Monster.
Lyrically and conceptually, this is really a song for the guys. But I have no doubt that the girls will be getting groovy too. It’s a great anthem for guys out pervin’ and swervin’. One might think of a smooshed era muscle car with a guttural sounding exhaust honking at girls. That sounds about right.
You may feel something around your ankle when listening to this one. It’s just the bass groove crawling up your left pant leg. I also suggest keeping a barf bag near by. The bass eventually gets so groovy (particularly in the outro) that you may puke. The drums are tight and the leads are proper monster sick. I have had many rock ‘n roll fantasies with this song…side zip ankle boots, tight jeans, muppet shag hair. This this is one of the sickest jams I know of. It is simple but kicks you in the face real hard.
