"I came to Beefheart late. As a youngster, a lot of the older lads were into Beefheart but I didn’t like the way they dressed or their attitude I didn’t think they were cool. They were borderline radical hippies and I wasn’t having any of that. It didn’t look like fun to me. So I steered cleared of Beefheart. And then years later, somebody sat me down and played me Trout Mask Replica and I went, "oh my GOD!" and went out and bought everything. It was his use of language – he was writing like an abstract impressionist painter, fusing together chunks of English language that made more sense to me than something written straight. He was writing emotions through raw chunks of images that were coming to him. He was the first lyricist that made complete sense to me. Then I read that this music that I’d thought was badly played was in fact played amazingly well. He would write these very emotional piano pieces and then hand them to the guitarist who was the MD (musical director) and say, score that for the whole band to play. Often they weren’t even played to a rhythm – they were kinda random – and the band had to play along with them. They’re astonishing renditions of something that is so abstract that it needs great musicians to play them. He was fusing the blues and finding new ways of playing it. Shiny Beast (Bat Chain Puller) is one of his later albums where he returned to the style which people loved – trying to be less commercial than his Virgin Records years. There’s a track called ‘Tropical Hot Dog Night’, (quotes lyrics) “like two flamingos in a fruit fight… Everything’s wrong, at the same time it’s right… Like steppin’ out of a triangle into striped light” – and this reminded me of my drinking years. That’s exactly what it was like, where you’re in shadow and you’re in white light. This man knows exactly what’s going on in my head. He wrote such beautiful poetry. In later life, I made contact with him through Anton Corbijn and he’d send me music of his that wasn’t quite so well known. But I never got to meet him sadly. As a painter he was a massive influence on me because his titles were so fantastic. I take that same approach when I’m titling paintings for exhibition."

Stan Taylor is an LA-based singer-songwriter and Bubbs is a music producer. Not too long ago, they released an adorable R&B tune, entitled, “Since I Had You”.

“Just a simple approach to the kinds of music we love, writing about life in our mid-20s and trying to find someone to settle down with. Stan and I get lost in the melodies of Marvin Gaye and the old soul heroes but throw in our own new school approach. Sprinkling in a few live instruments to go along with a Dilla-inspired groove. Hope you enjoy it as much as we enjoyed making it.” – Bubbs

‘Since I Had You’ tells a romantic tale of a young guy who feels a certain type of way whenever his significant other isn’t around him.

Apparently, she departed in the morning to do something important, and ever since then, he’s been miserable, missing her dearly.
Later, he admits that the thought of her makes him lose his cool. Therefore, he smokes a cigarette to calm down.

Even though it’s only been several hours since they last held each other, he can’t wait to be back in her warm embrace.

‘Since I Had You’ contains a relatable storyline and ear-welcoming vocals. Also, the likable tune possesses groovy instrumentation flavored with a nostalgic R&B/Soul aroma.
