I have a Beatles Lunch Box I can give you a deal on -
-
anybody else ever notice what a lousy voice Cass Elliot had? She's always touted as this great singer, but she only sounds ok when buried in all that bad reverb they used on the Mamas and the Papas - on the solo stuff she sucks -
-
actually, wasn't Paul Mauriat the original Love is Blue guy? It doesn't get any hipper than him -
-
well, McCartney always had that lighter side to him, I think, even singing things like Red Sails in the Sunset and Til There was You, so I'm not sure he needed an external influence. Problem was that once the Beatles broke up he didn't have Lennon anymore to wring the sentimentality out of him - and Lennon didn't have McCartney anymore to wring the Yoko out of him -

I've always been bugged by John Lewis; though he was one of the first to praise Ornette, near the end of his life he made very disparaging remarks about Coleman, to the effect that Ornette had become just another musical nut -
I think Lewis was an interesting composer but I weary of his pronouncements about the blues - what I get from his own blues playing is "hey, though I am sophisticated and erudite I have not forgotten my roots." Well, I feel the same way about myself - except I would add "handsome."
the rest of the band is fine, however (the MJT?) -

actually I don't think so - if you look in the back on the sign you can see that it's some Beekeepers gathering - and what the hell else does Charles have to do?
-
actually that music hall thing is in a lot of McCartney - Good Day Sunshine, When I'm 64, more if I had time to look -

I'm going to sleep now - maybe go for the 10000 tomorrow -

and by the way, in case I haven't said it already, welcome back -

I've got this rash, but I don't think that's what you're talking about.
But aside from that I've got about 20 CDs of crazy COGIC gospel (that's Church of God in Christ for you heathens out there)
it's my favorite thing to listen to, crazy people on the verge of lunacy -
(and no jokes please)

well...no, but it gives me another excuse to post -

I will avoid the obvious joke here in deference to our more historically sensitive readers:

anybody else like rugby?

great to see you -

hold your tongue:

there's just something about tall women:

this one's got me worried:
