Every once in awhile, a video pops up on YouTube which needs to be posted here.

In this case, the mid 80′s video clip features Derek O’Brien, in a supporting role, with none other than blues giant Otis Rush (an artist Titty Bingo loves to cover). Enjoy.

Our new single, Talk the Talk, from the soon-to-be-released, Titty Bingo Vol. III: Streets of Mercy, debuted on Steven Wheatley’s Dalecast podcast today.

A hard hitting Texan throw down, Talk the Talk finds Derek and Dahr letting their guitars do the talking. Fueled by adrenaline and filled with confident swagger, Talk the Talk sounds perfect for football stadiums, wrestling arenas, and Hollywood. Any takers?

Grooving With Derek O’Brien and The Iceman

Randy Combs — Wed, 02 Dec 2009 17:04:33 +0000

The beauty of YouTube lies in the fact there’s a constant stream of valuable old video being posted. Often, they are historic clips which only a handful have ever seen. Take for example, the following clip of the Iceman, Albert Collins from 1991.

Bingo lead guitar Derek O’Brien plays rhythm guitar in support of Collins and you’ll also see Reese Wynans.

Titty Bingo Tune Preview

Randy Combs — Thu, 22 Oct 2009 23:22:54 +0000

I’ve been listening to mastered mixes from Titty Bingo’s next release. Cueing up the jukebox, So Cold whacked me like a Buford Pusser 2 x 4 across the gut.

So Cold is a f*cking monster. I wonder if Dahr’s showing the youngsters how to rock?

Freddy’s opening toms on So Cold announce a kick to the head before you’re whisked away on a runaway freight train. Freddy’s drums and Larry Fulcher’s propulsive bass send this song careening down the rails yet their rhythmic skills keep the proceedings from flying apart.

Dahr’s urgent vocals border on unhinged. He’s a hanging-out-the-window engineer on this out-of-control train and you better clear the tracks.

Then there’s Derek O’Brien’s guitar. Fans of Derek adore his understated, sinewy guitar licks, but this time around, Derek stomps on the throttle and leaves me with my mouth hanging open.

The production lends the right atmospherics (especially Derek’s guitar) which support the song’s attitude. Dahr co-produces with Andy Johns while Andy mastered and mixed. Steve Chadie does the engineering work.

By the way, no one knows when or where this gem will appear. There’s a distinct chance So Cold won’t fit on the next release.
