Basically all the songs by voodoo dogs. Their first album is more of a world music jazz experiment. It got to the point where I just ended up having a easier time buying the alb than finding tracks online.

This stompy, hill billy-ish, pop-ish song I think I heard on Top Gear once. Had lyrics about whisky and a hole. It's not so much that I even liked the song that much, it's just that I can't figure out what it is or where I heard it.
Luckily the one that has been bothering me hasn't not been too long; maybe a few months? But I still haven't found it. I just know a few lyrics and I can find them on exactly zero search sites.
"I think about you all the time,
Even when you're frusterating me,
I love that you're mine,
And I think about you aaallllll tttthhheeee tttiimmmee"
So yeah... That has been my burden as of late.

Olde fart here: 34 years.
The Story:
In the early 80's, I visited a certain well-known 3rd world country, I heard a cassette dub of a scratchy, old 78 rpm, 3 minute disc of one of that country's most famous musicians, probably from the 1910's -1920's.
The guy who played it for me wouldn't let me copy it, and told me that the original disc it from was probably unique: a one-off disc, never duplicated, and the 1950's reel-to-reel dub that he copied from was lost.
I listened as hard as I could, and tried to memorize the music....
Fast forward to the mid 2000's... I see on eBay a disc with a title that matches what I remember... it might be it... I bid... I win!
Months go by... the disc arrives!!!!
broken in half....
A few years go by, and I read an article that instructs me that is may be possible to reconstruct the broken disc... by placing the halves together on a turntable, set to 16 rpm, removing the clicks and noise and digitally re-aligning the grooves etc., etc.,... so I learn to do it.
Yeah, it's the same disc, but it 's not nearly as good as I remember from 34 years ago.
