Stroker Ace

End of the week calls for something sexy, so Lovage's 2001 album, Music to Make Love to Your Old Lady By, is an appropriate place to revisit.  This video for "Stroker Ace" is another official release from the band, and has the sultry voice of Jennifer Charles front and center. 

This sleazy little number starts after Charles runs into Merriweather's club (Dan the Automator's pseudonym on this album, who can be spotted sitting at one of the tables), and begins singing on stage.  Patton isn't visible here, but is heard during the chorus, along with the howl found in abundance on Tomahawk's Oddfellows, as well as other projects.  "Stroker Ace" might be tongue-in-cheek, like most of the album, but it doesn't take away from the implied threesome Charles is asking for.  Definitely a sexy tune, and one I would've loved to have seen performed live as a duet between these two!


   

One of my favorite reviews can be found in the comments section on YouTube:

 

Commenter 1: "This song is almost dirty enough to masturbate to."

Commenter 2: "What do you mean, 'almost'?"
