  1. That is one fine turntable. At a very good price.
  2. Yes, it's got the 007 song on it! * ^bad info, it's not on that one & I can't find it yet "Live & Let Die" It's on a compilation, and a best of, think it was released in `73 as a single.
  3. Rock Show last night huh? Had this LP for a period, it moved on sometime in the 80s!
  4. We have the most dense dim-wits in the world here driving
  5. A few years ago i'd get ticked off when looking at the tv guide and pressing to watch "The Mummy" one of my all-time favorite leave reality for an hour and a half movies... And see him in some movie with the same name, channel changed or tv off every time!
  6. Hey guys, sometimes things work out. It was a fender bender to the onramp for the Loop. Parking deck was full to the third... the third has a overhead walkway into the building! & I managed to get to see the doc and be out of there before my appointment was supposed to happen. Nice. Ride back not so nice it was >4 hrs. Southbound shut down, thousands of cars rerouted to secondary roads. Stopped and got rid of the coffee, got loaded up on a teenager's lunch. Hot fries, sunflower seeds, green tea and a slice of store bought poundcake. Detour took us two exits down the road. Bad wreck again here, at Cowpens this time. https://www.foxcarolina.com/2022/05/18/scdot-vehicle-fire-shuts-down-i-85-near-exit-83-spartanburg-county/

    Only laughing because that post is overkill George Listening now. Bet you could do a terrific book report in school!
  8. My 90s Yamaha amp I'd give three inches on top and twice that much behind when I was in the heat of central FL. I always cranked it up then when I was in my 20s to late 30s. Today?..... downtown CLT to see the gut Dr. Left at 5:30 spent an hour stopped on 85 now I'm an hour early. In here with that darned aggravating respirator on The silicone sticks to my face it makes good contact. If we had left even ten minutes later I'd have been late, and doctors don't wait on you!

    The food? music? both? Those tamales are made fresh every Friday we get them for lunch sometimes. they're cheap, the avocados are not! Punch bros hit me right when I heard them, and at the price I'll give `em a listen every now and then. Talented!

    Cheap is small and not too steep But best of all cheap is cheap Circumstance has forced my hand To be a cut price person in a low budget land Times are hard but we'll all survive I just got to learn to economize I'm on a low budget I'm on a low budget I'm not cheap, you understand I'm just a cut price person in a low budget land

    King Crimson had what, I think six different groups of musicians. If so this was the sixth group in 2003. Mostly instrumentals, aggressive ones at that. A DGM made in Japan this time via IL. Sounds even better on my new hardware, a Pioneer BDR-S13J-X that I managed a deal on.
  15. It's good to counteract the chemically induced hypertension Rx. Up and until around noon that is.
  16. Simple and good, takes me back. Thought you were alluding to that song once recently @billybob! Cleaned out around the bushes out front. I forgot my vitamins earlier. I'll take that B-complex out, it makes me zoom for about eight hours in a different way than my breakfast coffee does. Do need to eat something... meanwhile:
  17. Oh Man, I do the dishes that usually soak prior to allowing myself to make the coffee every am. That way I make sure they don't stack up! You'd be surprised where I am right now. listened to one of theirs listed that I hadn't heard in a long time and now this is starting... good alt music for me today!!
  18. Doing some cleaning... pulled up more old stuff that I wanted to hear one appropriate great tune in. I found another as they were filing this place, it's right before the song I put it on for. The lyrics fit ALL this ---- generation that is h%ll bent on destruction. At least I hope this thought fits! Could they be salvaged? Would there be redemption? See all the people With hatred in their eyes I can't help thinking that It's only a disguise Cause underneath that core There's got to be more Than what we realize Maybe they're scared To let the inside out Maybe they're afraid to Show what they're all about So they put on a heavy front and hope that no one else Can work them out So they put on all the heaviness But its only an illusion heaviness Can't you see They're scared to Show a little bit of emotion A little bit of real emotion In case a little bit of emotion Gives them away Look at that lady dancing around with no clothes She'll give you all her body That's if you've got the dough She'll let you see most Anything but there's one thing That she'll never show And that's a little bit of real emotion A little bit of true emotion In case a little bit of emotion Gives her away But it's a shame she's acting that way Somehow she's gotta get through every day And the only way Is not to show one little bit of emotion A little bit of true emotion In case a little bit of emotion gives her away People learn their lines And they act out their part Then they talk on cue But it's got no heart It's all on the surface And it's all contrived They're scared to come out Somehow they've got to survive Look at that looney With a smile on his face He knows no shame And feels no disgrace He's got a look in his eyes That makes it seem that he's from outer space Maybe that looney knows what it's all about He's got something to say But he can't spit it out He's uncoordinated so we shut him out In case he shows a little bit of emotion A little bit of real emotion We're afraid to see a bit of emotion So we walk away Show a little bit of real emotion Show a little bit of emotion We're afraid to see a bit of emotion So we walk away Author: Ray Davies
  19. That's a little bird in your hand, I tried to download a picture of a mouse... like mickey and minnie mouse and I could only download a .th file that was absolutely nothing. duckduckgo is not giving me .png or .jpegs now
  20. Think you mean bird and not a small rodent!
  21. "True patriot love in all of us command." I know some of it by heart from all the games I've watched even though it's edited out not to "offend" anymore. (sad smiley face)
  22. One more, my favorite of the Elton LPs I have. *just saw at youtube that JeanLuc Ponty is on "Mellow" and "Amy"
  23. OK OK Got more, need to finish my Sunday dinner first: My chicken carbonara (an abomination to an Italian) & coffee with pie While Elton plays! Nope, no rotten peaches around here But homemade pie is better.
  24. Did I tell y'all I miss my LPs? Yea, but youtube might have saved my sanity... could have been long gone before GREAT artist, this is one of mine and I think it deserves more views & likes!
  25. You crack me up sometimes @ClaudeJ1! I've got a good one about something that's supposed to prevent you from getting sick, but it causes
