But to hear of 4 track tapes, that's riotous.<br /><br />Frankie had immense talent and was even a very skilled actor for a non-trained one. But his ego was the size of the Grand Canyon. He was probably the inspiration for Bill Murray's lounge lizard schtick. But I digress. It's a digression. It's getting extremely off-topic.<br /><br />I definitely agree with critics saying the White Album was disjointed. But like I said, tune for tune, separate various tunes from the tune herd, and they were gold.<br /><br />How can anyone not smile when Savoy Truffle comes on?<br /><br />Around my times was when the New Wave European came out- Elvis Costello, Squeeze... But then a few years later as I came of age, out popped weed to go with Pink Floyd, Bob Marley, The Grateful Dead, The Allman Brothers, ... <br /><br />Except for some amazing grunge out of Alice and Chains and others then TOOL, one needs to go nostalgic imho to keep up with things.<br /><br />Oh man, last year I found out about Minnie Ripperton. What a lady! She was in some hippie band. You might tell me to snap out of it, but I would have been a lot better off living in your era.<br /><br />Being a supertroll doesn't truly line up with my inner love child soul. But them's the times we've survived into.<br /><br />Youtube is amazing. It'll be interesting to see what happens in the future for copyright laws and whatnot. <br /><br />They've been clamping down a bit more of late. But there are even other places one can go for freebies. My mouth is sealed. You can send a townhouse memo for more info. Perhaps the New Deal for this era has simply meant replacing new jobs and conservation with food stamps and free entertainment. The revolution will not be live blogged.Tokyo Shemphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01764134901412321022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111653955715349434.post-44613039265604164452012-08-29T09:13:50.322-04:002012-08-29T09:13:50.322-04:00Yes, hmmm on the old meta days.

I missed it in real time but was able to catch up through reading archives.<br /><br />Also around 2006 you had the Moulitsas schtick emerge through that interview. How he loved the CIA and called it a liberal institution.<br /><br />I guess he never figured that would become circulated knowledge. Maybe Stu Piddy found it first. But it was Francis Holland who went completely pitbull on Kos.<br /><br />It helped that he was multilingual and could easily translate Central American papers with knowledge of Moulitsas.<br /><br />What an ass he is. He came from the El Salvadoran oligarchy, the one that uhm were responsible for hit squads.<br /><br />I hate fake lefties. They're the worst cause they are supposed to represent we the people. Brad Friedman. That's what I'm talking about. Stealing important issues for some scam.<br /><br />2006 was a pivotal year for the internet zeitgeist. Astroturf got exposed to absurd levels. Netvocates, The Rendon Group, the Bivings Group, Advantage Consultants, on and on. They're still around as you know and still suck shit. There's also the spy factory junk.Tokyo Shemphttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01764134901412321022noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111653955715349434.post-22724600300575988152012-08-29T04:25:30.258-04:002012-08-29T04:25:30.258-04:00OOps forgot to mail the 4 track dilemma with the h...OOps forgot to mail the 4 track dilemma with the held piano chord at the end of Day in the Life, it would take an eternity of silence lost in a noisy 65 VW and the ultra crappy sound of the cheap speakers and 4 track deck for the tape to click over to the next track. <br /><br />Jeesh.<br /><br />Thanks, boys.<br /><br />Also forgot to note "Piggies" also a George tune scrawled in blood on the wall at the LoBianco murder scene if I remember correctly by the great artist of the Altamont end of era, Charles Manson...<br /><br />Son of man, get it?donkeytalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00127785986652379168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111653955715349434.post-64913492560744933292012-08-29T04:11:35.360-04:002012-08-29T04:11:35.360-04:00Nowhere was on a homemade software. It was pretty ...Nowhere was on a homemade software. It was pretty excellent, actually, but I don't think he'd gotten around to building in security features. The hacking occurred during the brief period we housed Errin F in a comment thread after he's been banned at DKOS for penning the Meta classic "Delete My Fucking Account Now, Kos" dairy, which ran to 1700+ comments, the record at the time and maybe still or close to it. 2006 I'd venture to guess.<br /><br />Brian was something of a local band guitar god in Chicago who'd gotten bitter on the scene, and taken a diversion into blogging, where he soon became bitter as well, thanks in no small part to me. I was burned out from two heavy years of carrying the historic troll water at DKOS and Boomans. <br /><br />Being featured at Nowhere exacerbated nmy addiction. Mea culpa. But we were the best of the early Kos bashers, well before Francis Holland, who admittedly had better schtick which is why I supported his efforts during the MLW period which led to its downfall and the creation of the PFF zeitgeist. <br /><br />Twitter blows is all I can think to say. If this is the future count me glad to be nearing the end of the line.<br /><br />White Album...I figured you'd like it best, the frame of reference for most younger Beatles fans are the albums you mention.<br /><br />I hated Sgt Pepper from the get go, it was too faked for me, a lot of overindulgent hooey masking the fact that there was only one truly good song on the album, A Day in the Life and even that was somewhat ruined by the last note being held for a seeming eternity. In those days we had four track tape decks in our cars, these monstrous cartridges that you'd slip in and changed tracks every three songs, often in mid song. Most of them we bought were pirated by the mob, you's by them for a couple bucks at "swap meets" or flea markets held at various drive-in theatre lots around SoCal back in the day.<br /><br />Poor quality, you'd hit a bump in the road or go over the railroad tracks too hard and the tape would catch and unravel all over the floor of the car. Fun times.<br /><br />Soon the 4's evolved to 8 tracks, then cassettes before the invention of CDs. Today its what? You tube for free?<br /><br />Works.<br /><br />But vinyl still reules the airwaves. Never been improved upon. Even the skips had an artistic quality, you'd start to anticipate them and work them in as you sang along....<br /><br />Thus Spaketh the Elderly demented Looser.<br /><br />Sorry, more mailed in commentary...the white album for me was most notable for the Ringo comnposed and sung organ grinder Dont pass Me By and a strong George set which is probably why you like it. While My Guitar is probably the best tune on the whole album. <br /><br />Long, Long, Long Time and Savoy Truffle were always two of my fave Geos.<br /><br />Abbey Road, also overrated but of course the George outings stand out on that one as well.<br /><br />Something, covered by Sinatra. RIOTOUS!<br /><br />Like Romney quoting from Marx.<br /> donkeytalehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00127785986652379168noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111653955715349434.post-77871463622665941172012-08-28T19:00:52.807-04:002012-08-28T19:00:52.807-04:00While I like Crackerbox Palace a lot, especially w...While I like Crackerbox Palace a lot, especially with the video, yeah Patti Boyd wanted to be a player in the social scene.

I think Jimmie Vaughan was supposed to play on that one, but we got Susan Tedeschi instead.<br /><br />Burl Ives did a cover of Kansas City for those of us who like to laugh.<br /><br />All of those sans Hey Hey Hey Hey. <br /><br />This is sounding Asperger-ish.<br /><br />Back to The Beatles...<br /><br />Oddly enough, while not a huge George Harrison fan, my favorites are probably Here Comes the Sun and While My Guitar Gently Weeps. Both of those I think from the LPs socrates listed.<br /><br />As to your previous post mentioning Pattie Boyd, I'll add my worthless two cents. <br /><br />Eric Clapton hit it really, really big with the Slowhand LP in 1977-78 (somewhere in there). Clapton's belting out Lay Down Sally and Harrison is singing about some goofy Crackerbox Palace. Sorry socrates, I despise that song.<br /><br />Here's my sad, sorry theory: She was a popularity whore. Clapton was the captain of the football team and Harrison was nerding it up in the lab.<br /><br />God, I always hated football players, almost as much as I do Clapton.thegoodsareoddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15860234038973005661noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4111653955715349434.post-52529222937367983712012-08-28T00:09:38.578-04:002012-08-28T00:09:38.578-04:00I hope everyone has enjoyed today's live blogg...I hope everyone has enjoyed today's live blogging of HackGate.
