I've got all the time in the world
I've got a sweet loving daddy's little girl
You need a minute just take your time
You need an hour you can borrow mine
I've got all the time in the world
Buying time they is a dangerous thing
You never know exactly what the time will bring
Move along, but not too fast
You've got to make the good times last
I've got all the time in the world
Leaving town on a slow freight train
I should know from the sound of your sad refrain
You need some cash, you got to go
How 'bout a slow game of dominoes
I've got all the time in the world
I've got all the time in the world
I've got a sweet loving daddy's little girl
You need a minute, take your time
You need an hour you can borrow mine
I've got all the time in the world

Oh man, does this bring back memories! The ex and I were HUGE fans of the subdudes (lower case!) when the original group was together and touring. Saw them live multiple times. Such musicianship, and hard not to smile, tap yer feet (or all-out dance) when listening to them!

Wow. Thought I was gonna hear "Wild Thing" when this started.
Kinda surprised that -- among all the "sounds like" comments -- no one mentioned Honky Tonk Women. Not a bad sound to have...
if ya play these guys...
yous should play sonia dada

I needed to be free to deal with that scenario, and No, correlation is not causation here. No bad juju. Besides, I had been the Art Director for the '88 Olympics already, won 4 Emmys and knew EXACTLY what I was missing! I went on to a very lucrative freelance career thereafter.
As somebody who has been working in the marketing/design business for over 20 years I have to say, good for you! Sometimes life forces you to make a change...it can be funny like that.

The solo reminds me of ol' Lowell George.

Not to be confused with the Dadist movement in the 1920s.

One day (July 6th, actually), I walked in and they had replaced all the chairs with crates since the furniture had to be sent ahead to Atlanta to be set up. I asked how long we were expected to sit on crates and they said about a month. And they said no more days off for the remainder of the job. (3 months!) That did it. I quit.
Went out to Central Park in NYC and played Frisbee for hours on a sunny day. Loved it. This song was playing on a boom box nearby. REALLY loved it then.

Most Excellent.
Pretty fitting at the moment.
The hook is the guitar riff at 4:12. Kind of a diminished 5th or some such, AKA the Devil's chord.
The Devil's chord is a chord that has the root note of a minor scale, the flatted fifth of the same scale and the root note of the scale an octave higher.
Perfect.

This song brings to mind a thought of sitting on a big, covered front porch of a late-nineteenth century farmhouse out in the country, jamming out with a bunch of friends on an early-October evening. A slow, relaxing time with good people.

My buddy saw these guys in the early 90s. I remember how impressed he was with their sound and that the one dude didn't so much hit his tamborine with his hand as use a big billy-club device to get that extra impact, I guess.
Good stuff!

DAMN these guys are good. Local paper (Albany NY) rated them the best concert of the year.
Very dissapointed that nothing from their new album Street Symphony is playing here. Sound and Vision mag (Stereo REview) reviewer called it the best album of the century so far. I should post it, but have never done it before. Like a reviewer noted below about a different Subdudes album, I would consider it a "stranded on a desert Isle" album. Prob the best Album I have listed to in 5 years or so. Obviously I recommend it... :)

I'm sorry if this comes across strongly but I was p*ssed by the way you trashed passion8.
PS - I've now bumped this tune from a 9 to a 10.
Oh, and I talked to a guy in Birmingham AL who said Atlanta gave ALL their homeless people one way bus tickets to Birmingham right before the Olympics. Birmingham sent them right back.

A former roommate worked for Coca-Cola (volunteered, actually) during the '96 Olympics in Atlanta. She worked 16 hour days for over a month BUT got tickets to all the best events - good tradeoff, but not as a permanent gig!

Is a "subdude" anything like a "sublieutenant" in the British military? I mean, might they someday get promoted from "subdudes" to full dudes?
Like the song, BTW.
![biggrin](https://img.radioparadise.com/emoji/icon_biggrin.gif)
Never heard this before, but I like it...
Heh heh. I always thought the intro to this song was "Wild Thing."
Just got their new CD "Behind the Levee." It is excellent.
that spoken word bit sounds almost like bill clinton. that makes me laugh. :)
Nice seque from Wild Thing into this.
What a set! I have to admit that this kind of set seems to be rather absent (at least in my experience). A nice (better?) counter point to the Ryan Adams tendency on RP.
A lot of nice 'borrows' from various good artists. Nice 'own' sound coming out at the end.
![dance](https://img.radioparadise.com/emoji/eusa_dance.gif)
Heh first time I hear this song and I'm singing along already. Great tune.
I would like to hear these guys billed with The Radiators back in New Orleans when it gets rebuilt and EVERYBODY gets to go backand reopen they're po'boy shops.
Thanks RP for the exposure to NOLA
New year, time to straighten up some misconceptions:

And no drums--that's just a tambourine.
Not exactly. The percussionist, Steve Amedee, has perhaps the most unique drumming style you will ever see. He includes a tamborine in his method, but also has some more conventional equipment as well. Very minimalist though. His style is so different that about ten years ago they put out an instructional video just to show how to do it.
String_Chess_Incident wrote:* buys the CD *
Actually, if you like their sound, the CD I highly recommend getting is Annunciation. Song for song, this is one of the best albums I have ever heard. (I consider it a "deserted island" CD.) You will not be disappointed.
ChardRemains wrote:A buddy of mine swears these guys are THE live show...
They do put on a fantastic show, heightened by the fact that they play venues which keeps you close to the band. It's almost like they're playing in your living room. There is a very intimate/comfortable vibe between the band and the audience.
lily34 wrote:seen them twice. FABULOUS band. so much fun live. :nodhead:
so happy to hear them on RP.
did they regroup? i think they disbanded and then started calling themselves tinytown (or something) with the remaining members....but i'd love it if they were back to being the subdudes.
does anyone know?
Around 1996 the original band did a farewell tour, tired of ten years on the road and in hopes of pursuing individual projects. A few years later 3 of the 4 got back together (all but the bassist Allen - IMHO the least critical to the subdudues sound) and toured briefly as "The Dudes," although it was clearly the subdudes music. {Historical backdrop: This is around the time that the Grateful Dead sans Jerry set the fashion by playing as "The Other Ones."} Some change of heart took place and in 2002 the band reemerged as the subdudes once again, with 2 new members recruited from their old New Orleans circles to replace Allen.
I think I"ll tune into Folk Alley.com, they play folk music all day long, kinda like this station does occasionally.
Occasionally this station sounds like some oldies channel, what gives, other times it's awesome.

I bet these guys would be great live- but the studio stuff doesn't move me at all.
A buddy of mine swears these guys are THE live show...
Reminds me a bit of Eric Clapton.
This song showed up on HBO's "The Wire", to accent the fact that someone was being tossed in jail.
The "Live At Last" version is great, also.

If you like this, just buy the album. It's great. And no drums--that's just a tambourine.

Sounds a lot like Little Feat, at least on this song.

My first thought when I went to check out on playlist! ![music](https://img.radioparadise.com/emoji/icon_music.gif)
I just ordered a Subdudes cd. I've liked everything of their's that I've heard played on here.

Glad to hear they're back together. I believe I'd heard that they had broken up for a while. Maybe it was just a year or two sabbatical...
Love the little spoken part in the middle!
Hooray for Looziana music and for the subdudes!
I dig this tune and this whole CD. Everytime I play it someone asks, WHO is this? Nice to hear it on RP.

Thought they were launching into The Troggs' "Wild Thing" at first. Cool tune.
Great band live. From New Orleans originally. Then to Ft. Collins for a couple of years in the late 80's. Then moved back to New Orleans.
seen them twice. FABULOUS band. so much fun live. :nodhead:
so happy to hear them on RP.
did they regroup? i think they disbanded and then started calling themselves tinytown (or something) with the remaining members....but i'd love it if they were back to being the subdudes.
does anyone know?

I stand corrected! They've played live in Austin so much, I just figured they were a Texas band. They sure have the N.O. feel and funk, though!
