Doug Hubley, 2020 / The Fashion Jungle, 1988 - Don't Sell The Condo

from Songs by Doug Hubley: Faster Louder More Fun! by The Fashion Jungle / The Boarders / Howling Turbines

about

One of my favorites of my songs and, I think, one of the Fashion Jungle’s best — too bad few people ever heard it. Gretchen knew an art dealer whose charismatic lover was rumored to be a coke dealer, woman beater, Satan in the flesh, etc. This is their story as I imagined it. I wrote the lyric over gimlets in the lobby of the Eastland Hotel on a snowy afternoon while waiting for Gretchen to get out of class. I recorded the first part of the track in The Basement in August 2020, and the coda is extracted from a videotape that Gretchen made of the FJ in Steve and Jeri Chapman's basement early in 1988.
