  1. Yeah, that's the bonus disc from the immersion set that came out a few years ago. Interesting.
  2. Anybody post over on the Steve Hoffman forums? I mainly lurk and post occasionally. I'm a music fanatic, but sometimes that place is a beating, christ, the minutiae some people get into is nuts. It's hard to even keep up with a thread over there, they move so damn fast.
  3. Cross-post from the aggy thread, all this damn lifeline talk. KLOL, 1983, it ain't no classic, but it shoulda been...
  4. Goddamit, all this damn lifeline talk, made me go dig out one of my high school mixtapes to track down this gem... KLOL forever, fuckers!
  5. Exactly. My first impression was, hmmm, that shirt would have fit in at Dachau. Dog whistle in overdrive.
  6. If you haven't watched their swan song, Head, it's worth it. I love it, some great tunes, and a pretty subversive flick. And I just watched this yesterday, a great interview with their director Bob Rafelson, learned a lot about both the movie and the TV show (one reason they didn't hire Stephen Stills, he came in and wanted them to give him a hair transplant and some new teeth! Bob said ain't nobody got time for that...).
  7. All the duct tape should have been a dead giveaway...
  8. Anybody else catch this on the ID channel the past couple of nights? The doc itself wasn't that great, very repetitive, but the case is very fascinating, child serial killer (the "Oakland County Child Killer") in the Detroit area in the mid 1970's. Just the whole underground pedophilia rings, christ, disturbing beyond words. Reminded me somewhat of "The Keepers" on Netflix, there was definitely some shady stuff going on with the cops, people being protected, etc. I don't have any idea who actually did it, so many threads, but I do agree that it was probably a team of predators, and that Chris Busch was definitely one of them.
  9. Somebody finally pull the plug on the ol' shag? What will mofo do now...
  10. Here's just a random snapshot of InfoWars from 2005, quite a bit different then: https://web.archive.org/web/20050829085542/http://infowars.com/
  11. Again this year, I have to recommend HDNET, they've got a pretty solid list of Oscar winners running this month. Quite a few on my "haven't seen that one in forever" list, and they give you plenty of chances over the month to catch them. February movie roster
  12. Kinks fan?
  13. I keep a close watch on this heart of mine , I keep my eyes wide open all the time Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun. Make me an angel that flies from Montgom'ry , make me a poster of an old rodeo Eighteen-hundred miles from this old nightclub, a girl is turning 22 today Now blue ain't the world for the way that I feel, and the storm's brewing in this heart of mine Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup, they slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe Something in the way she moves attracts me like no other lover I may not always love you But long as there are stars above you You never need to doubt it I'll make you so sure about it
  14. The fact that they stopped at a McDonalds when there's a Whataburger next door tells me all I need to know. Fuckin' Keystone cops.
  15. This one got me
  16. Went out to eat with the wife and we were talking about the EJ tour, I thought he was pretty much done with the states (I'd looked into going last fall), almost bought 2 tix for Tulsa next Sat, $850 for two, wife even agreed that was too much. Checked some more, end of spring break, Mar 15 in Jacksonville, 2 tix $580, pulled the trigger. Will be a nice road trip, last chance to see Elton, never seen him before, just couldn't pass it up.
  17. BTW, the link above appears to have some audio overdubbed from the official album and bootlegs. Here's a version with the original audio, for authenticity: https://archive.org/details/LetItBe_724 There might be other better versions, these were just the first 2 I came across...
  18. Ken Mansfield, former U.S. manager for Apple Records, recalls watching the momentous 1969 rooftop performance mere feet from the Fab Four https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-features/beatles-last-concert-rooftop-ken-mansfield-interview-783884/ 2003 article about the recovery of the Nagra tapes I mentioned above, source of hundreds of bootlegs and which will surely be integrated into the new film https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/the-beatles-buried-treasure-237925/
  19. archive.org LINK
  20. Watching the original Let It Be right now, it's so dark, hopefully they can lighten it up some. And I know what broke up the Beatles, the hours (and I mean HOURS) spent on Maxwell's fucking Silver Hammer, what a load. Seriously though, will be curious to see the footage Peter Jackson can dig up of them all having fun together, because in the original they are definitely not.
  21. Yeah, saw that yesterday, wasn't sure where to post it. Guess I'll dig out my 14 DVDs worth of Nagra reel audio and get ready!
  22. Listening to a stream right now on KOOP 91.7, the Eggmen are at the Austin Library recreating the rooftop concert. Well, that part's already done, now they're just playing other 68-69 era songs, good stuff.
