And the Nobel prize goes to….

This guy.

Congratulations this guy…. you get it.

He gets it folks…. the maker of this video gets it, a big round of applause for this guy.

@thane16 @whisht

Yes, I do love Phil Ochs and yes I’m a proud liberal.

This probably all leads back to this guy so…cut to the chase.

@thane16

Which is your favorite Bowie song?

Here’s one of mine.

@whisht @thane16

It’s a classic in my book, but you can never tell what somebody else’s musical background is like. As you can see, mine is all over the place.

I was hanging out with the Metal heads, the Goths, the skateboarders and the stoner burnouts all at the same time.

Getting back to something @mudlark and I were discussing. I just…[Read more]

Hmm…I watched the episode last night and besides really liking it overall, my favorite part was when Graham called Edison and Tesla “AC/DC”.  😀

I put on my finest thinking cap and then had to toss it when it caught on fire from the very stuck and grinding gears in my head. Thankfully I’ve slightly recovered since…[Read more]

No worries, if I’m posting too much music too often could somebody let me know. Not sure of protocol on these forums.

Until then….

Those Dead songs are from their early “Psychedelic” period. They changed into a Americana/folk band soon afterwards. Crosby, Stills and Nash were a big influence on these next ones from…[Read more]

These two bands always remind me of each other. Not an exact match in musical style, but in musical spirit they are congruent.

Remedy – The Black Crowes

Up on Cripple Creek – The Band

@harrykeogh

Sorry, I was on my phone.

So, you’re not opposed to messages just the style of delivery? I can’t argue with that, I preferred Moffat’s style myself.

I’m blaming any typos this time on my fat cat.  🙂

Sad news for fans of American folk music, David Olney passed away peacefully on stage during a performance at a festival in Florida last night. It was reported that he collapsed on stage but fans said that the singer said “I’m sorry” and lowered his head.

Never dropped his guitar.

This is what the l…[Read more]

Third Doctor

Colony in Space – Quick Summery

Ruthless mining company (In space!) uses fake monster attacks to drive away colonists so they can richer faster. Oh yeah, the Master wants a Doomsday weapon (Who doesn’t?).

You’re right, no message there about corporate greed or using fear to achieve your…[Read more]

And the piano sounds that I was talking about are found at the very end of that song…as it transitions to “The Faster We Go The Rounder We Get”.

It’s the crackling sound like a guitarist taking his pick and slowly scraping it down a low string.

@thane16 @whisht @arbutus

Hello there young Thane,

I think you are ahem….”dead” on with your thoughts about what your Mom would say. 😃

It’s 4am here and I should be asleep but when duty calls, I must be there to be a new version of  the Merry Pranksters. I must spread the message… The good word, if you will.

If you enjoy the Grateful…[Read more]

I don’t want to “hippie” it up too much in here.

But I thought @thane16 might like this one.

See if you can recognize the sound of a gyroscope being used on a piano wire to create a sound that probably didn’t even exist at the time.

This whole ablum is worth listening to.

@mudlark

Axl could write some good songs…when he wasn’t busy being a jerk. 😀

@whisht

Take me to your leader….

Just as easy to dance to as “Rock Lobster”.

@mudlark

I watched it from my email link.  🙂

Only Sir Elton could get away with bright orange sunglasses.

In fact I think he has.

Couldn’t see any in this video though.

@mudlark

Greetings!

Tell me about it…

But don’t worry just yet, things are looking up. Time to grab my sunglasses, I’m starting to get a glare.

Enjoy!
