More Songs About Rockets, Trains, and Motorcycles


Tav Falco And The Panther Burns will swing through the Southeast in May 2018, with shows in Little Rock, New Orleans, Memphis, Atlanta, Asheville, Richmond, and Philadelphia. 

There is a new book of photographs ("This Could Go On Forever: On The Road With Tav Falco & Panther Burns" by Gina Lee) as well as Mr. Falco's own psychogeographic history of Memphis, "Ghosts Behind The Sun: Splendor, Enigma, and Death".  And he made a Christmas record!

Visit tavfalco.com for tour dates and to learn about all his multimedia activities.  The man turned 70 two years ago, but I can tell you from eyewitness experience during his Whistleblower tour that he can still tango.

    For those who got these comps when I posted them last year on the Twilight Zone blog, the only things I've changed are to fix the track numbering and to add the original "She's The One To Blame" by Crazy Cavan in place of the Bonneville version. Thanks to the Twilight Zoners who shared "Tiger Man", "Cockroach", and the unreleased original recording of "I'm On This Rocket". The discography at limbos.org/tavfalco helped me to find a lot of the songs.
