  • I caught them live when they toured for Man With a Movie Camera, and enjoyed the show much more than their records. The girl who sang the Fontella Bass parts seemed to be suffering stagefright something terrible, but she did a good job in spite of …
  • at least youz guyz aint irish-scottish. how about the combo of Scots, Irish, and Scots-Irish? When I bleed, my blood splits into three distinct and different pools, which then start to argue with one another about who has been wronged more by the …
  • Impeach the President... the refrain/chorus or whatever, not the braek.
  • The track Change Your Ways on Jazz Blues Fusion is good. Freddy Robinson does a vaguely Booglaoo Joe-ish chromatic solo that is nice.
  • Do you mean the vaguely metallic/echoey sound? Something they might have used in Knight Rider/Wonder Woman type of shows too? I've wondered what made that sound, too.
  • I will NOT debate you the finer points of the heat index.....as i only rely on the new standard of weather....the "Feels Like" rating. Currently...its 89degrees but it "feels like 81degrees". http://www.weather.com/outlook/travel/va...&from=w…
  • We are looking at 100+ temps this weekend with very little to no humidity in the Mile High City. Interestingly, I saw that earlier in the week Denver had a high of 92 one day, and the dew point was in the low 20's. This made the heat index lower…
  • My impression has always been that they aren't so much looking up at anyone, but moreso, looking down at "you".
  • A favorite quick, cheap, healthy, and easy dish for these summer months is a cold salad of bulgur, feta cheese, and cherry tomatoes. I grow the tomatoes, and bulgur is cheap in bulk. Feta could be the sticking point in the price/avialability dept,…
  • In a cage match, we have weapon & armor handling Ms. Mabry, who can get nasty, by her own description. In the other corner, AC would likely be able to levitate, and probably transform herself into a she-hellion (shellion?), (I'm picturing the…
  • While I was in Budapest a few years ago, I met an Israeli doctor in a bar who had been working with m??decins sans fronti??res in the former Yugoslavia. Doctors Without Boarders. One of my favorite organizations. The founder was just made somethin…
  • I don???t have a particular religion, but I like to learn about them when I can. While I was in Budapest a few years ago, I met an Israeli doctor in a bar who had been working with m??decins sans fronti??res in the former Yugoslavia. We got to tal…
  • I think many listeners boil it down to love/hate based on the voice. Some folks might think the lyrics are cringeworthy. Both of these things draw me into her music, though. A unique voice can act like another instrument, if you don???t get too hu…
  • Left on from last night: Mandel - Cristo Redentor, and on top of the dust cover is a Costa Cruise Lines vanity LP of an italian cruise-ship singer named Enzo Di Terlizzi. Interesting cover of Neil D's 'Cherry Cherry,' though. (recent find related)
  • There was a folk/roots doc film maker in the 70s 80s who was great... I'll be right back I need to do some research... Les Blank Always For Pleasure is the movie about New Orleans parade music. He did a movie about Clifron Chiener called Hot Pepper…
  • Has anyone done a worthwhile film about New Orleans Brass Band music? I'm not sure you could single out one band, but this seems like a ripe topic for a film. Has the time passed in the wake of the storm? Is there something definitive I'm not up on…
  • I used to love getting those calls all the time. It's almost like the sound version of vouyerism. I'm generally in the middle of people???s phone list, so usually this doesn't happen. For some reason, one friend of mine always calls when he is out…
  • Summertime Good, Fresh Produce from the Markets Good records for cheap lately Lots of good shows coming up Finally returned to school for graduate work I???m not giving the lows???. It???s Friday.

  • "I invented the pianokey necktie! What have you ever done?" works well in numerous situations. However, doesn't always go down well in arguements with the girl, or meetings with the bossman.
  • I threw my name in a box somewhere when I was 6, and by luck of the draw, I won ??? the prize was attending a Twins game in 84, versus the Red Sox. I got to check out the inner-workings of the Metrodome, and meet a ton of the ???84 team. Met Jim Le…
  • I'm leaving for Europe next week and my phone company does not have service there (thanks Verizon!). They told me I could rent a global phone, but it's $1.50 a minute incoming/outgoing. I'm wondering if there's any other options like buying a dispos…
  • Somewhere on the internet there is a community of people who string the scammers along until they can get face to face meetings. Then they snap a picture and post it on the net. The more hoops they can get the scammers to jump through without losin…
  • what the fuck is italian maggot cheese??? what the hell are you talking about??? take your mouth off, sonny 'Italian maggot cheese' is called casu marzu. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Casu_Marzu
  • [quote} strachino is pretty damn good and largely unknown in the states get familiar Can you find Strachino on the east coast? I've never been able to find it in the Midwest (surprise, surprise). A couple cheesemongers here know it, but said due t…
  • Yes, I'm using a mash and malt extract. Eventually I'll try all-grain brewing. I haven't tried cooling with ice yet. I got the copper wort chiller with the kit so I've been using it. I do have a cooler that is the perfect size do drop the brew pot …
  • Next week my first batch of homebrew beer will be ready to drink. I brewed 5 gallons and bottled two cases of hazelnut brown ale a week ago. Looks like a Partial-Mash process? I'm sitting on a batch of irish stout and a second batch of Watney's …
  • Anyone have a good caipirinha recipe? Don???t know if you are looking for something other than the standard, but here is what I do: Muddle a whole small lime with 2-4 spoonfuls of turbinado sugar in the bottom of the glass, add crushed ice, then …

  • uh oh. Worth less without the inner, I'm afraid. I have an OG inner, alas I don't have the LP. We might could work out a trade/profit sharing of some sort though. I heard the inner sleeve had a a photo of Sergio and Herbie Mann both shirtless sha…
