I bet so, too.

Aftermath is my favorite.

Former Yankee center fielder Bernie Williams is the Bernie Williams of guitar.

At the mid-point of his career, the sports talking heads were beginning to refer to Wayne Gretzky as "the Babe Ruth of hockey". By the time Gretzky retired, some of the same talking heads were referring to Babe Ruth as "the Wayne Gretzky of baseball".

My favorite part of The Gong Show every week!

I got some excellent cigars.

I like Zappa, I just don't have very much at all. I had Freak Out on LP, but it disappeared. I have Lumpy Gravy on LP and CD. That album took some getting used to, but, over time, it kind of grew on me. And, I've got the CD single of his "Stairway to Heaven". I need to dig that out and put it in the car. I need to get some more Frank. I think he was underrated as a guitar player.

I don't know about saturn and his boy's seats, but the Orioles are drawing bad air this year. But, really, the Orioles are just two players away from the post season - Brooks Robinson and Jim Palmer.

I do the same thing, and I don't even drink coffee or play golf.

If I had my own two boobs, I'd never leave the house.

I bet you'll be happy with that. I think I would've done the same.

I never heard any of Double Fantasy other than what I heard on the radio. I wasn't impressed. I DO like side 1 of Live Peace in Toronto.

I bought that LP when it was released. I listened to side 1, then I listened to side 2. I listened to side 1 over and over and over. By the time I bought Live Peace on CD years later, I had just about worn out side 1 of the LP, but side 2 had only been played once. I don't listen to the Yoko half of the CD.

You've never seen one fly? Out here in TX, we get them but not like back east. But when they're "in season" here, I see them in flight all the time. I did see a news story about a woman who ran her car into a telephone pole (I think) when a cicada flew in her window and hit her in the face.

Yeah, the AL East is a tough division this year. It's still early in the season, but if the Red Sox don't come around, they'll probably get desperate and start thinking about thawing out Ted Williams' head. And, Greta? Yes, climate change is real, and yes, some of it is probably caused by man, but her rant probably turns off more people than it inspires.

Maybe look into http://www.mahaffayamps.com/little-lanilei-quarter-watt.htm. It's only .25 W, but it's all tube and sounds great for what it is. It takes up very little space. I've got one, and it's a cool little amp. But if you want something "capable of more than one sound", you might have to supplement with a pedal or two.

iAY CARUMBA! No thanks.

Thanks for the Josh White. I've got a little Josh White on a couple of old blues anthology LPs. Besides a lot of Wolf, Muddy, Sonny Boy, Elmore James, and the other old '50s to '60s Chicago guys, I've got a lot of the older guys like Blind Willie Johnson, Skip James, Blind Willie McTell, Blind Lemon Jefferson, Charley Patton, etc., etc., (and, of course, the requisite Robert Johnson.) I just love the blues.

Very nice, indeed.

Wouldn't we all.

I've got Message... too. You're right, not his best. I've also got the This is Howlin' Wolf's new album. He doesn't like it. He didn't like his electric guitar at first either. album on which he re-records some of his old hits. Also, no where nearly as good as his original recordings of those same songs. But, By God, I've got those two albums, and just about every other thing he ever recorded and that was released including the poorly recorded live stuff and the stuff he recorded with Bo Diddley and Muddy. And, thanks for the Gil Evans "Spoonful". I enjoyed that.

The Wolf is my favorite. I've got a stack of Wolf CDs and LPs as long as my right arm.

Thanks for posting the Wolf!

Very nice. That's a beautiful color.
