Lucky you, I only have a reissue with a different cover with Phil (or Phil stand-in) wearing a 'back to Mono' button, when the album is very obviously stereo! Most ripped off Xmas album ever? Definitely one of the most pop-culturally reverberant pop-statements of the last 50 years, I think. Target's ads this season using all the "It's A Marshmallow World"'s samples being just the latest...and to think that it was a flop in its time! I also have a mono Apple reissue, as well as a Pavilion/CBS stereo copy (both with the identical Phil-as-Santa photo), and...no. Same thing with Philles 45s. Whatever you do when you print the musicnoise into the LP groove is not there on either one of them (especially/obviously the stereo one), what is that, the mastering stage of an LP? I don't know what they did, but every Philles pressing I've heard has had crappy vinyl and hotter-than-hell sound, even the LPs hit like a jukebox 45, or pretty close to it and is freakin' visceral like a mofo. Never mind the songs/music/whatever, I don't think that was the real point of any of it all, that sound was. Wall Of Sound my ass, Wall Of Constantly Exploding Noise Sound, hello. I'm surprised it took him as long as it did to actually kill somebody. Somebody should have intervened and forced him to make, like, one record a year, just as a public safety measure, keep him just that little difference below the bursting point. Zappa wanted to let us know that his guitar wanted to kill our momma, well, ok Modern Day Composer refusing to follow through, Phil Spector's records wanted to kill everybody, even/especially for Christmas...or at least fire a warning shot that just barely missed. Season's Greeting!

Well, here's the record: http://www.discogs.com/Estradin%C4%97s-Melodijos-Jupi-ja/release/4365260 And this might be the band: http://www.discogs.com/Estradin%C4%97s-Melodijos-Vokalinis-Instrumentinis-Ansamblis-Estradin%C4%97s-Melodijos/release/3033033

Well then, I guess it's just not for you.

It's not a question of if I will give them my money, it's just a question of how.

Yeah, that. Just that. No deeper meaning.

Did they cut off his neck a part of the process? Seriously - surely that head does not belong on that body, at least not in the same photograph!

That photo is...just not right. More like Cracked Neck!

Yeah, all I remember is that whenever Raymond Burr came on, it seemed like we were going into basic drive-in fare. Not that there's anything wrong with that, but...and I like Raymond Burr, the man whose name and speaking voice both sound the same. I've always wanted to see the original, without the American inserts. Something else on the to-do list.

Especially an oiled one! http://cdn.thedailybeast.com/content/dailybeast/articles/2014/11/11/kim-kardashian-bares-her-shiny-bounteous-butt-breaks-the-internet/jcr:content/image.img.2000.jpg/1415764520066.cached.jpg

I'm still using Firefox. When I got to the billing page, I noticed that the shield up in the address bar was greyed out. Further review said that that was because there were parts of the site that were not encrypted. It didn't say which parts. It might actually be safe, but I want further clarification, just because.

Ok, I'm misremembering my chornologicals, then. But still...The whole inter-gender thing was just...out there, got even more out when Lawler got involved, and the Letterman thing was just...some kind of pinnacle, of everything comedic. Andy Kaufman was fearless, truly fearless. Most "fearless" comedians, they'll break at some point. Lenny Bruce broke, or at least got beaten down. Dice Clay got broken by the fundamental indecency of his whole premise, had to retreat for his own sanity (or something). The only thing that broke Andy Kaufman was death, and there's still some question about that! Let me stipulate that for me, "creepy" is not always a negative. It's just something that generates an initial feeling of some kind of unease/discomfort. How that resolves itself, that could go anywhere. Andy Kaufman, resolved to heroic awe. 600 pound guy in shorts and a t-shirt standing in the park giving out balloons to kids, resolved to...hope the cops are keeping an eye on this.

That pretty is pretty much a defining characteristic of any entertainer. I don't know what "we need", but what I like is an entertainer who actually entertains me. On that count, winning, her is!

Except when he started challenging women, then it got...out there. Then again, I think that Andy Kaufman at that point was doing, like, the Interstellar Space of comedy.

Just did that.

Creepy like Andy Kaufman wrestling creepy!

Thanks. I was looking for something like this. As was I. Some more links to get you to different spots in the same area: http://blogs.wfmt.com/relevanttones/ http://www.live365.com/stations/20classics And AccuRadio has stations for both "20th Century Classical" and "Avant-garde Classical"

I got an email from the DSO this evening with the subject line Two Virtuoso’s Not To Be Missed! Close enough for classical, right?

Fuck Dookie (eeeeeeeeeEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!), I want to order this, but not unless I can be sure the checkout is fully secured.

Sybil's Golden Oldies, that was the name of the place, but they had a lot of jazz (and jazz 45s). And they had a whole back room of 78s. I wonder what became of that place...I bet the cats ate it all, they were those kind of cats and those kind of people. It was one of those places that you look for a logical way for it all to be together in one place like it was, people, place, and things, and...just no way, no logical way.

Dookie done gone.

Thanks for the heads-up! I was JUST about to order it when I noticed that the checkout site might not be fully secure...total bummer...anybody else noticing that, or is it just my browser?
