  • This is a pretty old story, if I remember right, and didn't Miki Howard completely deny it? Plus the "evidence" turned out to be fake or something? This dude looks more like Lenny Kravitz than he does MJ. SPlDEY said: Do you think Michael J…

  • RhythmGJ said: BTW FG, are you the same over at AK? I'm the same person regardless of where I am... and maybe it's the frequent lack of sleep fueling my ignorance, but I'm drawing a blank on what "AK" is.
  • Their board apparently made the decision, based on this: "A press statement noted that the decision had been unanimous, and was made "following a request by representatives of the Monk Estate regarding the continued use of Thelonious Monk's name.""…
  • Great list. One thing: Erma Franklin's "Piece of My Heart" was the original, Janis was the cover. Here's a cover of hers, that I'm surprised doesn't get more shine:
  • You gotta get with these new styles: Ambient blipcore  Prog-Dub-Noise-Thump-Splat Country-soca snap trance That one that doesn't have a name yet, basically just retired metalworkers chanting over household appliance beats.

  • Apparently the Clinton campaign has adopted the strategy of using the game to bring people to voter registration sites, and it's working. I imagine whichever staffer came up with that is getting a raise soon. I personally have zero interest... but…
  • RAJ said: I can't go on Social Media anymore.  So many misinformed idiots.  The Internet has divided everyone.  We're now set back 200 years. Nah, we were never less divided. We just know much more now about about how divided we are, becau…
  • DOR said: I personally think he's scared as shit that he's going to win the damn thing. Agreed. I've said for some time that I don't think he had any intention of getting this far... but the whole thing spiraled out of control, and he go…
  • Never been a Metheny fan in any sense, but I will always appreciate him for his epic takedown of Kenny G: http://www.jazzoasis.com/methenyonkennyg.htm
  • I guess I was looking to see which stack of records people would choose between: a) a pile of all of Dennis Coffey's records, or b) a pile of all of Galt MacDermot's records. That's more or less how I interpreted it.
  • Coffey was/is a fantastic guitarist, but in terms of musical craftsmanship, it's McDermot by a mile.
  • ketan said: I heard Sexy MF yesterday and it really is great. I go back to this one more often than I would have expected. It's probably the most James Brown-ish he's ever sounded and yet it's still distinctly him. And James, I would cont…
  • When my son was baptized, the priest who did the ceremony was an old Philippine guy, and he wanted to meet and talk with us (or rather, at us) at length prior to the ceremony. At one point, after he'd been talking for about ten minutes, he pointed …

  • trzakhstan said: Does anyone think this isn't about butthurt concerning the first black president and the civil rights advances and immigrants moving to America and certain people losing privileges? Definitely no small amount of butthurt. 
  • Some interesting thoughts here. djtopcat said:Right now I don't see a single Dem candidate stopping Trump's momentum.  Certainly he's doing better than expected, thanks mostly to the rest of the (R) field being much weaker and more ridiculo…

  • I have some, will put up later assuming it hasn't already been covered by others.
  • djtopcat said: Really well done doc. I used to work at a Tower Records in Seattle right out of high school. The store manager was a fucking asshole, but all the employees were laid back stoners,played in bands or just music freaks. I knew whe…
