He claims that he’s embarrassed because the whole world has seen his infant wiener. Big frickin’ deal! We’re guys. We don’t care who sees our genitals. Some of us, the ones with very poor judgement, send pictures of our tackle to women, and maybe even to some men. Jay Leno even had a pose during a joke to represent a guy “showing off”. He would stand with his hands on his hips, with his elbows back and a proud/smug look on his face, and would turn first a bit to one side, then a bit to the other side. The meaning was clear to everyone, but it was not rude, merely a bit risqué. BTW, I use the term “tackle”, rather than the more common “junk”, because that term seems really disrespectful to some of the most popular, sometimes even kissable, parts of our anatomy. It’s equipment to do a job, e.g. tackle, and hopefully it does that job well. Junk, on the other hand, is usually ugly and undependable. And no geriatric comments about that last sentence, please. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MeloManiac Posted October 2, 2021 Share Posted October 2, 2021 In the past couple of years, my wife has bought some vinyl records for me, as a present. But this week, a first: she bought a vinyl (double) album for herself: Bart Peeters, De Kat Zat op de Krant. He's a gifted, multitalented person and hugely popular in the Dutch speaking part of Belgium. My wife's a fan, and she has most of his music, if not all, on CDs. So I asked her, why spinning vinyl this time? After pausing and reflecting somewhat, she said she liked the warmth of the sound, the tactile experience, the nostalgic, cosiness of it. I'm teasing her about the fact that she ordered a signed album and she secretely has a crush on him! 🤣 1 2 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's kind of fantastic to listen to it through the Leben CS300 and 1972 Heresy speakers. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JohnJ Posted October 5, 2021 Share Posted October 5, 2021 @Full Range Like that Mannheim much better than that Christmas Music they came out with where I first discovered and disliked them! Cool @dirtmudd #4 has always been my favorite! 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bubo Posted October 9, 2021 Share Posted October 9, 2021 Firefall Elan, 1978 pressing Second track they sound amazingly like CSN, harmonizing Haven't heard these guys in 20 years. Wide variety of styles Definitely an A list Band Just found the needle drops, last track Side B, Winds of Change This is part of the "Happy Girl Collection" I purchased at a Resale shop, I.m guessing early 20s when the collection was new, about 40 records all strong recordings. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyhow: I like the full sound, and the music is really good. Interesting write up Another group that achieved record sales success but wasn't paid their worth. By their work product, they were an A list band. As to their later works, I will see if I can check them out May have been too big of a departure from their earlier work Rhonstadt was one of the few that was able to change Styles like most people change their socks 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
