  • unfortunately this is one of the few Bo 45s I am missing, the price just keeps rising, such a good 45.

  • I ate the most expensive meal I've ever had at Dominiques (now La Meritage at the Maison Dupuy Hotel) on Toulouse St. Those oysters at Drago's are really something.
  • I actually give mp3s of this LP to some of my more musically inquisitive students from time to time, they always come back & say it has blown them away.

  • personal taste is a funny thing
  • highscheme said:luck said:True rarity = 10 copies extant or less Yeah, I would agree that less than 10 copies seems to be a pretty good # for true holy grail type shit. But what about $50 or $100 records? Again, a lot of it is actual d…

  • The_Hook_Up said:why didnt they put Hendrix raer on it like The Upsetters "Cabbage Greens" and other high-dollar and elusive sides?...frustrating. But they probably will put another box out in 5 years i thought this was debunked a couple years…
  • It is mental that unreleased/alternate studio stuff is still coming to light. I really wonder about some of these claims. Sounds like a cool box set though.
  • Guilty. I definitely had a GnR poster. lol
  • cosign on licorice, shrimp, turkish delight & add shellfish.
  • what is that? a bear?
  • deathvalley90210 said:olives YES. Totally forgot about Olives, terrible. Also, Plums that have been bottled in brine. Biggest disappointment ever. Thought I was gonna get standard sweet preserved plums. Almost made me heave.
  • Tomato - the red death Celery - A nothing vegetable, why does it even exist, like eating crunchy grass. Cucumber - ugh, so disgusting, like eating a tasteless slice of apple, pointless. also I agree on the organ thing (kidney/liver/heart) h…
  • i think it's resealable, so it's like a 7" in a playable 12" casing. Awesome.
  • Christians are people, there are bad people & good people, hence bad christians & good christians. It is not rocket science. Just get on with setting a good example yourself. If you are doing good by yourself & others it doesn't matte…
  • good point, maybe he'll see this & chime in. Bernedo, you should put "ATTN: Madlib" in the thread title so that he definitely sees it & knows to click on it.
  • Bernedo said:...where are those serious diggers? none of them post here anymore
  • hertzhog said:I had a couple of their albums, they all have their moments. none are currently filed though, kinda cool at times but ultimately not essential.

  • yeah, that Fox Glacier plane crash is a tragedy, sad days indeed. The destruction in Christchurch is mental, it's gonna take a long time to sort out, the footage on the news last night was heartbreaking.
  • Hey guys, by all reports it's a mess down there. It was the same size as the Haiti quake but the time of day & better building codes have resulted in no loss of life so far. The city is known for it's great architecture & a lot of that now…
  • Auckland's ethnic diversity for lulz..... pretty funny to compare. It's a different world down here. White 56.5% Asian 18.9% Polynesian 14.4% New Zealand Maori 11.1% "New Zealander" (refuse to identify with any other ethnicity) 8% …
  • I come from a family of real bad cussers, my grandparents are/were the worst. From the time I was little there has always gratuitous use of various swear words. I'll never forget the first time I used fusk in front of my Dad, I was about 4 or 5 &a…

  • pretty weird retouch jobs, some sort of art experiment? do you know the story behind them? where'd they come from? David Ruffin in lipstick lol
