Yes, very much. I believe I made some a few years ago. A marvelous collection indeed!

Frisky!

Get your Steve Gadd chops together!

Major League Cricket (T20) begins in the US on June 12. We'll be having plenty of matches in Grand Prairie, and I definitively plan on going to one, probably more. It's a great way to spend an evening! https://www.majorleaguecricket.com/news/187

Sucks about Profar, but maybe that puts last year's "breakout season" with the Padres in perspective?

Too early to get too excited about the Rangers, but they are starting well enough to be fun!

Civil unrest! Tell @Rooster_Ties!!!!!

No?

Ok, so it looks like Proby didn't necessarily write all of these songs, and that some of them did find their way into Elvis's movies. But there's really no comparison. Elvis is just invisible Proby is full-on creepy. Way ahead of his time, imo.

Still winning!

It's a totally great record.

This has to be one of the more surreal albums I've come across in a while. Proby wrote and performed all these songs, not for Elvis the general performer, but for Elvis movies, the really stupid, crappy ones. And it's like he's determined to be inside the movie himself, doing Elvis with all the weirdness of those movies spinning out of these songs. The song titles give you an idea of just what is going to happen - and it does. It's no secret that I generally have ZERO use for Elvis, but this is a different animal altogether, I don't know that any of these songs made it into any of the movies, and that creates an even more otherness to the music - Proby as Elvis in Proby Elvis moves. Mayby qa parody, but only as a secondary objective. It's a trip, as is so much of Proby in general. Skills AND concept.

Lightning strikes again. Carpe diem!

They did cohabitate a vinyl LP record tho: And never returned the presents. People still whisper about that

This is incredibly detailed research!

This shit is nuts, all of it.

We've had multiple 78 advocates here over the years. I've had just a bit of exposure to them and I do not at all scoff at the medium. Them bigass grooves don't mess around.

Isn't Eicher almost blind these days? I've heard it speculated that the blinder he gets, the darker the covers get? Fraility has a power of it's own.
