The album is a 10-song ode to the artist&#8217;s love affair with dirty rock &#8216;n&#8217; roll, outlaw country and chainsaw punk, replete with all the catchy, power-pop hooks Meyer&#8217;s sound is well-known for.<\/p>\n<p>Spaghetti and Meyer, along with Cheetahs&#8217; drummer Mike Sessa, are seen jamming against The Good Bar&#8217;s signature wall of skateboard decks. Meanwhile, performers from local burlesque company, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/bootyburlesque\/?hl=en\">Booty Burlesque<\/a>, play the cheeky bartenders who exact their revenge (and rake in some well\u00a0deserved tip money) from a group of rowdy men trying to get fresh with the ladies. Extras featured in the video are Long Beachers too, who showed up to the set following a call-out in early August.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;We wanted to turn the tables in this video, and show what these hard-working bar tenders and waitresses have to deal with when they are working,&#8221; Meyer said. &#8220;Eddie and I have spent most of our career playing divers and clubs, so we see what these ladies have to put up with on the job. Guys can be pretty obnoxious and forceful, so we wanted to make a clip where the girls get the upper hand, turn the tables of these dudes, and get the last laugh while counting up all the loot!&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>An unexpected but perhaps not entirely unlikely musical duo, Spaghetti &amp; Frank started working on music together during the height of the pandemic, when musicians across the world suddenly had a little too much time on their hands and found ways to make music from home.<\/p>\n<p>The pair have known each other and toured together in their respective bands for decades, and\u00a0 reconnected in May 2020 to collaborate with a host of other iconic rock musicians (Cherie Currie, Mike Watt, Josie Cotton) on the pandemic-inspired all-star collaboration charity song, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=T7uadgElbk8\">\u201cFlatten the Curve.\u201d<\/a> From there, the duo started sending each other bits of ideas that Meyer would flesh out from home.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Frank, he\u2019s kind of like the studio wizard. He puts all the music together, I\u2019m just kind of like the idea guy. I\u2019ll have an idea for a song and I\u2019ll sing it into my phone and send it off to him and it\u2019ll come back to me as like a full-fledged piece of rock and roll. He\u2019s very thorough and he\u2019s super good at it. It\u2019s a pleasure to work with somebody like that,&#8221; <a href=\"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/hi-lo\/veteran-rockers-release-reimagined-socially-relevant-music-against-our-better-judgment\">Spaghetti told the Long Beach Post<\/a> in October last year.<\/p>\n<p>Spaghetti &amp; Frank&#8217;s new album is available for streaming on all major platforms, <a href=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/album\/5SRwQ0AyIXkYdBPsvcVimg?si=bLkQ5-jkSI2RDjaZYCeuZg&amp;dl_branch=1&amp;nd=1\">listen now on Spotify<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><em>Editors Note: This story was updated with a quote from Frank Meyer about the music video.<\/em><\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Spotify Embed: Motherfuckin&amp;apos; Rock &amp;apos;n&amp;apos; Roll\" style=\"border-radius: 12px\" width=\"100%\" height=\"352\" frameborder=\"0\" allowfullscreen allow=\"autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; fullscreen; picture-in-picture\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/open.spotify.com\/embed\/album\/5SRwQ0AyIXkYdBPsvcVimg?si=bLkQ5-jkSI2RDjaZYCeuZg&#038;dl_branch=1&#038;nd=1&#038;utm_source=oembed\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Rock duo Spaghetti &#038; Frank, comprised of the frontmen of the Supersuckers and the Streetwalkin&#8217; Cheetahs, released a video this month filmed at The Good Bar.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":262,"featured_media":71753,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"newspack_sponsor_sponsorship_scope":"","newspack_sponsor_native_byline_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_native_category_display":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_style":"inherit","newspack_sponsor_underwriter_placement":"inherit","inline_featured_image":false,"newspack_ads_suppress_ads":false,"newspack_popups_has_disabled_popups":"","_EventAllDay":false,"_EventTimezone":"","_EventStartDate":"","_EventEndDate":"","_EventStartDateUTC":"","_EventEndDateUTC":"","_EventShowMap":false,"_EventShowMapLink":false,"_EventURL":"","_EventCost":"","_EventCostDescription":"","_EventCurrencySymbol":"","_EventCurrencyCode":"","_EventCurrencyPosition":"","_EventDateTimeSeparator":"","_EventTimeRangeSeparator":"","_EventOrganizerID":[],"_EventVenueID":[],"_OrganizerEmail":"","_OrganizerPhone":"","_OrganizerWebsite":"","_VenueAddress":"","_VenueCity":"","_VenueCountry":"","_VenueProvince":"","_VenueState":"","_VenueZip":"","_VenuePhone":"","_VenueURL":"","_VenueStateProvince":"","_VenueLat":"","_VenueLng":"","_VenueShowMap":false,"_VenueShowMapLink":false,"_":"","_author_alias":"","cap-aim":"","cap-description":"","cap-display_name":"","cap-first_name":"","cap-jabber":"","cap-last_name":"","cap-linked_account":"","cap-newspack_employer":"","cap-newspack_job_title":"","cap-newspack_phone_number":"","cap-newspack_role":"","cap-user_email":"","cap-user_login":"","cap-website":"","cap-yahooim":"","newspack_article_summary":"","newspack_email_html":"","newspack_email_type":"","newspack_featured_image_position":"","newspack_hide_page_title":"","newspack_hide_updated_date":false,"newspack_post_subtitle":"","newspack_show_share_buttons":"","newspack_sponsor_byline_prefix":"","newspack_sponsor_disclaimer_override":"","newspack_sponsor_flag_override":"","newspack_sponsor_only_direct":"","newspack_sponsor_url":"","newspack_article_summary_title":"Overview:","newspack_show_updated_date":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[292,240],"newspack_spnsrs_tax":[],"coauthors":[8767],"class_list":["post-26776","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-hi-lo","tag-music","tag-music-video","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/esd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26776","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/esd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/esd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/esd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/262"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/esd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=26776"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/esd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/26776\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/esd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/71753"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/esd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=26776"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/esd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=26776"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/esd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=26776"},{"taxonomy":"newspack_spnsrs_tax","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/esd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/newspack_spnsrs_tax?post=26776"},{"taxonomy":"author","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/esd\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/coauthors?post=26776"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
