More like I jumped fence for a genre (a generation?). I really enjoyed Jamaican dancehall rappers like Brigadier Jerry, Prince Jazzbo, Big Youth, Yellowman etc. in the early 80s, then just gave up on it when it went to the U.S. and became rap. To me it's as if the last 35 years of pop music has been largely dominated by a form that's as novelty and quickly gotten over as talking blues. Imagine the talking blues form dominating pop music for 35 years. I will be corrected here to be sure, but that is how it is for me.

Take a Message to Mary!

I wish you a happy and fortunate new year!

Nice one i'm listening to right now!

I somehow missed The Believer, but it looks like I might have the rest. I don't know who could do without these Prestige recordings.

The White Christmas version I would like to hear at Macy's is the one by John Fahey! Man could syncopate Death!

Not at all, skeith! I understood the humor (humour).

The 7th of December, 1941. A date that will live in infamy.

Big Youth, Cool Breeze

Christmas with John Fahey Vol. II The cd version had to leave off Christmas Fantasy [Part I] in the interest of time. Too bad. It's not really Christmas stuff at all but lots of Brazilian music he was learning in 1975 from Baden Powell and Bola Sete!

Have a good one!

Have a good one!

Another mighty time! Thanks a lot!

Have a great one!

I'm ready! Congratulations to Red Sox and their fans!

It's been an exciting series with pretty evenly matched teams, and lots of memorable moments! Hoping the Cardinals can take the next two!

This is true!

Consolidates the position of GM Rizzo. Williams was the Diamondbacks' third base coach for the last few years. Metheny didn't have managerial experience either but look where he is! This move does not look like flushing the young talent to me.

My old neighborhood would have pronounced Dustin Pedroia and Papi like this DOO stan PEE dro YAY PAY pie Always ready to MOCK the powerful and popular! I miss those folks! PAY pie sounds like one of Popeye's nephews: Peep Eye, Poop Eye, Pay Pie

Home of broken treaties and the Trail of Tears, if ever there was a city that did NOT deserve the honor of aligning its team's name with Indians in any way, positive OR negative, it's Washington DC. Time for a change. It's like naming your team Wall Street Life Savings Losers. (we meant it in a NICE way!)

Those were quite the wholesome midwestern values McGuire displayed in 1998!
