  1. And remember, the only reason they had anything to kill was because Al Bell brought them back to life after Atlantic killed them the first time. Al Bell stands tall. And Jim Stewart is there besides him. Not a mistake.
  2. Are there any online samples of this group anywhere?
  3. Banks Schlavelli - Pinkletonia!!!
  4. I have it as this: Not very sexy as far as vintageness goes, but that series ended up in cutout bins and provided much service by so doing. Does anybody have the 10"?
  5. You want your cow to stream. That's proper milking, right?
  6. If a cow isn't milked, milk can build up in her udder, causing discomfort and pressure. This pressure can eventually stop the cow from producing more milk. Depending on the situation, other issues can arise, including: Normal drying off If the cow is producing less than 5 kg/day when milking stops, there are no problems. This is the normal way of "drying off". Uncomfortable pressure If the cow has recently calved and is producing a lot of milk, the pressure could be uncomfortable and infection could occur. Mastitis There could be a risk she gets mastitis if she is suddenly stopped being milked. Bruising, udder injury, sickness, and death All this from Google AI, who has apparently lived on a farm and learned life's lessons the hard way.
  7. He was no Willie Mays, that's for sure.
  8. 93. Literally the first player I saw walking into my first ever big league game, Astros vs Giants, Astrodome, summer of 1965. He was in the outfield getting loose and that 24 grabbed hold of my psyche instantly and forever. Indelible.
  9. YUCK!!! Why would I enjoy putting drippy glasses on album covers? YUCK!!! Oh, they're not coasters. Good! But otherwise... YUCK!!!
  10. https://www.sfchronicle.com/sports/giants/article/willie-mays-dead-obituary-17815215.php
  11. Clalvice Thresher - Too Damn Sub!!!
  12. That's a damn good record.
  13. No, it was "never the same". How could it be? Why should it be? It remained Black, and it remained profitable. Al Bell wanted to grow that. Good for him. I read Barry Gordy's autobiography, and he always paid White guys to run Accounting and some other key administrative positions, not because they were "better" at it, but because he knew that if he paid then enough that they would be loyal and run the necessary interference when the racist business bullshit would happen, and of course it happened. Al Bell was every bit as ambitious as Barry Gordy, but I don't know if he hired the right people to run interference for him. If he didn't, then that's his bad. Otherwise, Al Bell stands tall. And Barry Gordy hired Al Bell to handle the sale of Motown to MCA. Tell me that's not a vote of vindication that Al Bell understood all too well all the games that were going to be played... The only "mistake" here is that there wasn't more like it. On the record, that is.
  14. Haunting? I sure hope that that one was staged...
  15. It's been a few decades since I read that book, but I came away from it with a vivid lasting impression that Bowman levied a pretty scathing indictment against Union Planters as being the real murderers of Stax. Bell's perspective about all that was certainly no surprise here. The depth of the CBS backstabbing was, I don't really remember all that, not to that extent. But the odious actions of Union Planters, that I remember. #winthropspoketruthtoal
  16. Al Bell stands tall. Some date the true end of Memphis soul to the murder of Al Jackson. Either way Hi Records, Willie Mitchell. Southern Soul does indeed live, and yes, it is called Blues. Why not?
  17. I've gotten quite fond of Cowell's comping behind both Hutcherson and Land.
  18. Was that take edited for the 45 or was it s different take? Maybe it was a 45 or maybe it was on one of those CSP samplers? Either way, there's a shorter version out there.
  19. A version of Cop Out made it out on Festival Seedion There was also a 45 of it.
