George, I've gotta admit that was better that that "Krautwurst" or whatever I think you posted the other day. Or maybe Melo did...    😂

On one corner was Bruce Hornsby and another block was The Guess Who.  Fun time. 

 That would have been a busy corner I'd think.  Gotta remember we all missed you too tough guy!  Hope things are good???  BTW, slide that ketchup back down here I need some more!  😂

 

Have a 3-day Bratwurst Festival here for 3 days in August.  Small town yet feed about 200k in and outta here.  It's nuts  Beer consumption?  Gotta be off the charts.  2.5 tons of brats are consumed "they" say.  Carry on!

Owned that 45 long ago... that and Loco-Motion got a lot of play time!

 

 

The Loco-Motion is a song by Little Eva, written by Gerry Goffin and Carole King, which resulted in the 1960s fashion dance Locomotion. The Loco-Motion was released on June 14, 1962 worldwide and achieved success in many countries. In the USA the song reached number one on the charts. The song is a popular and long-lasting example of a song of the dance genre, much of the song is dedicated to line dancing. In the Rolling Stone list of the 500 best songs of all time, the song reached number 359

Just a lazy day yesterday...

 

Always room for a lil free-form improv.  King Crimson's 10th album released in 1984 and the last with Robert Fripp, Adrian Belew, Tony Levin and Bi Bruford.  

Fripp described the first side (left) of the lp as "accessible and the "right" side of the album as "excessive."  It works!  lol

 

King-Crimson-Three-of-a-Perfect-Pair-198

 

Great old "split" album from 1974 with each artist recording 4 songs with the others adding a bit of "confusion" cause they were thinking "group" instead of single artists..  Kottke kicked things  up a bit with his 6 and 12 string work while Fahey used his fingerpicking style.  A well received album back in the "day."

Then a lil "Nightfly" and into a ton of Steely Dan!  It worked but now...

Man I'd like to hear that second one with Leo Kottke and friends but that King Crimson is the first whole record of theirs I heard besides hearing Court of the Crimson King on the radio back then.


I have about a bakers dozen LPs by Leo Kottke including that one 😎

If you consider yourself a cynic, well, I've got the cure!

It's Now & Then from the Carpenters, my thrifstore find of the day.  I paid €4.5 for it, it is in mint condition and from 1973.

I bought it 'blind' because I didn't know the album, but when walking home, I listened to it on Spotify, and boy, what familiar tunes on this album.

The album dates back to the early 1970s and to me, it sounds like an escape from cynicism altogether!

Here is a nice review, with reference to 'nostalgia': https://www.udiscovermusic.com/stories/carpenters-now-and-then-album/

Can't slip a Leo Kottke in here for love or money.  Thunking Paul is holding out on us Johnboy!  lolol  He's sneaky like that me thinks!

 

Nice finds there Melo!  Thrift stores clean up anymore on LP's.  

 

Ok, back to work here.  Spent the last hour getting all the goodies around to put this LAST shelf up.  Say a prayer cause if this wall comes tumbling down I'm in BIG trouble.  If it holds I swear I'm done buying.  Honest!  I know you ALL believe that!   😂

 

Pics coming soon then.  Now it's how do I decide what to put where when I start hammering nails for the framed stuff?  Decisions, decisions...  😂
