Indeed. I wore that LP out back in about 1978, after having it for about 4 years. The CD fits onto one disc, but given the constraints of vinyl, the original was more of a "three-sider" that got stretched to two full LPs.

The CD I posted is remastered with three additional tracks from encores (Black Night, Speed King and Lucille), so now it's 2 CDs with only about 22 minutes of material on the second one.

Still blows the back wall out of any structure it's played in though.

Yes, those 7 songs on double LP would beat Zeppelin's Song Remains The Same which originally had 9 songs on double LP. I mean beats in having less songs.
Oh and currently listening to the black keys rubber factory on vinyl.

An old friend of mine, Jizzy Pearl, who idolizes Buk probably as much as I do, if not more. Maybe you can see that from the Buk inspired cover of his first solo album. He also sang in one of them glam rock bands from Los Angeles in the early 90's called Love/Hate.

Some nice relaxing music at 1am, hoping it will put me to sleep, or help me pack, or not...

The Beatles - Rubber Soul in stereo on the 300 disc changer(hey it's like my very own jukebox) I bought at out of the closet vintage store on Sunset blvd. Sounds pretty good, I must say.

Just returned from a Flogging Molly concert and was really impressed with one of the opening acts, Frank Turner. He's been around a bit but I'd never seen him live. Would gladly do so again.

Not bad, it seems like an odd choice to be opening for Floggin Molly, but I have seen many an odd opening act, when compared to the headliner. Kinda reminds me of , the second half of the Raconteurs, who usually plays all the instruments on his solo records.

On vinyl, one of the funniest records I've ever heard, though it was not intended to be funny! I will admit every time I hear it, my appreciation and adoration of Dee Dee Ramone grows! This is his venture into rapping! Even funnier, once when asked why it failed, Dee Dee was explaining that he really couldn't rap and responded to the interviewer with, "i'm not a negro."

Because Carol said something about "France" in relation to her underpants, and it reminded me of a song on here.

They were punk rock because they had hairy armpits.

nervas, The Offspring are always on the radio and I have become a fan.

As for Têtes Noires I must say I don't mind a girl who does not shave her arm pits. It reminds me of a girl I knew in the 6th grade-yes she was from France.

The girl who's second from the right in the bottom photo looks like Leonid Brezhnev. Maybe she's Russian - do they shave their armpits?

Awww, the 1991 album that(please no need for bad jokes) got me into Buk. Red Hot Chili Pepper's Blood Sugar Sex Magic. Before 1991, I just hadn't heard of him in my naive youth. I blame my parents! Though somehow they had introduced me to Anne Rice, and hey, I'm still thankful for that.

It is what it is
...which raises an interesting point...

I have a son - 3 years old.

When do I say 'Hey, boy. Read this'.

I mean, too young and it could really put a dent in his social life. I get the right age and he will think I am the greatest father on earth.

Well, he thinks that now, but - he's 3!

I don't know Têtes Noires but at the same moment in France, there was a punk band called Bérurier Noir:

And the bastards rocked!

That's a cute French imitation of punk, sweetheart, but everyone knows that the French don't rock. It isn't in your blood.

There's nothing wrong with that. It's just kind of sad to see you try.

That's funny. I once had a 30min conversation with my ex-girls 10 year old son, who I've known since the day he was born. I said, one day, not now, but maybe when you're 16, 17, whether I'm around or not, I NEED you to look up Bukowski, pick a book, read it, it just may change your life. He promised to, and today he turned 11, so I'm waiting for a phone call in about 5 years, telling me he finally tried it. He was always curious at all the books on the shelf, but of course, was forbidden to read any, so he was happy to read his diary of a wimpy kid books....

The naughty old man keeps repeating himself. Is this the beginning of Alzheimer's?

Lov'em (especially the impressive singer)!
