All Activity

"...just goofing around, we're both goofs together." Love this! Me and my wife goof around all the time! Constant laughing.... Sample it on youtube. It's a WTH! or a WTF? kind of record.

I rarely get a chance to listen to music at night, I spend those with Lucinda watching TV or reading side by side or just goofing around, we're both goofs together. Music is my mostly solitary, centering and calming activity.

I've been think about buying this album but never came to that point ... I am not sure if i've been able to enjoy it ?!

Gonna guess, your nights were much more peaceful. 😄 Edit for grammar.

No, I'm not a fan of that one, I was referring to Jimi's composition on "Band of Gypsys." His biggest anti-war piece.

This? I was ready to play "Machine Gun" myself! But then my wife, who can fall asleep within moments, tells me to shut that shit off! In sum, the a-hole blaring music all night wakes up my wife and tells me to turn that shit off. Game, set, match. Reference See how she reacted when I put on Don Cherry's Complete Communion!

That is surprising. Everything at Cafe Oto is recorded to a 64 channel multitrack.

@Holy GhostI do most of my listening when I wake up, which tends to be early, because my wife stays up later and slesps in later. So I might listen to almost anything at the start of a day. Today "Machine Gun" seemed appropriate. On to Mingus Big Band “Blues and Politics” Dreyfus Jazz cd

You wake up to Hendrix?...love it!

Miss this giant big time. Had a chance to see him in a club in Cleveland, but decided not to go because I was hoping for a "Die Like A Dog" quartet; that year he died. Stupidty alas. Man's life and music is a legacy in my house. Peace!

Well the US is at war. . . again. Undeclared war. Didn’t know what to play, raached for this. Blu-Spec CD2 edition.

Can't beat a good chip butty https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chip_butty

Listening to this now. Impressive to sound this fresh.

I like fries with tartar sauce. When I have fries that is... But my dad was a big meat & potatoes guy for damn near every meal and I grew to dislike potatoes in general. The years have softened me on that, but only some. Even now, Mom otoh was from Louisiana, so we'd catch a break once in a while and get rice. Give me rice over potatoes any day and any meal. But just not on a burger. Ever.

Chips or cooked potatoes in a sandwich is very common worldwide! It is definitely not a Pittsburgh thing. Any sort of soft chip or fried or boiled potato is a natural with bread because it adds a fluffiness and texture that is different to what the bread itself is bringing. Putting chips (i.e. soft fries) is very common in Greece or in Spain or in the North of England (in the last of these sometimes just on their own, as a nursery snack, with ketchup, which is less exciting). Whilst it won't work with American style fries, try it next time you have roast or boiled potatoes and don't mind the extra carbs. You'll see that they really enliven an otherwise good sandwich. This conversation slightly reminds me of American friends' mystification at the idea of eating fries with mayonnaise, despite that being the condiment that fried were invented for, or with malt vinegar, despite it being so normal that it was the first crisp/chip flavour invented.

Actually Burger King stole it from Primanti Brothers. This is from the article you linked: Never mind that Pittsburgh's been putting fries between bread for decades now, this is the future of fast food: Take some things you already have in house, gussy them up a little into a sandwich, then sit back and watch the Internet sizzle over the news. [Grub Street] And this is from an AI search: The idea of putting fries on a sandwich is attributed to Joe Primanti, who, during the Great Depression, began serving sandwiches to truck drivers in Pittsburgh. The concept reportedly originated when a trucker brought a load of potatoes, leading to the addition of fried potatoes to the sandwiches, creating the now-famous Primanti sandwich Amen. Or pulled and placed on the side if served on the sandwich.
