Since my wife's mom's new husband just got a Rick 325, I had to do some research: John Lennon - History Of His Guitars

I stumbled upon this article on Buk: https://blog.bookstellyouwhy.com/why-we-can-stop-reading-charles-bukowski This passage particularly bothers me: "And in this respect, there are many stronger writers, of superior artistry, perspective, depth, and temperament that beat Bukowski at his own...

If you click the "Show More", there's a list of the musical concepts displayed and links to each section in video.

The Question - "Getting Through" LA Power pop/Mod band. "Getting Through", Tony Rugolo - Bass, Phil Cusimano - Guitar Vocals, David White - Drums

Yes! I think something like that will look sharp. Thanks much, Black Swan.

Gunsmoke Blues - Muddy Waters, Big Mama Thornton, Big Joe Turner, George "Harmonica" Smith Summary: One weekend in November, 1971, bluesfreak, Link Wyler and his buddies from the Gunsmoke TV crew, gave in to temptation. On production hiatus, they bolted Hollywood to go and film Muddy Waters...

mjp: Thanks for the explanation. zobraks/Purple Stickpin: thanks for the links. More great stuff to dig into.

Guilty. Believe it or not, I actually did due diligence but somehow missed "It's Not Who Lived Here." I did remember I had uploaded "Vulgar" previously but I was thinking all the poems from the same issue should be together. What about keeping the covers? I do enjoy seeing them, tho if you...

Just curious. Any more scoop on this? I recently finished Calonne's Charles Bukowski. Does anyone know if the chapbook shares content with this book, re the early poems?

I could watch/listen to Joe all day. One of my guitar player friends and I get inspired and occasionally try to tackle the Hotel California solo played by Walsh and Felder. We usually don't get too far and move on to other things...disgusted with ourselves for quitting yet again... I just...

Nice. A local boy. Thanks, PhillyDave. I'll check him out further. I enjoyed the scenery. Back in college, we used to hang out around 6th and Fairmount. One of our friends had a place. Remember the Bank club? Not sure if that's still there. You ever go to Silk City? We were just there last...

One of my buddies got me this poster for my b-day a couple months ago. Thought I'd share... If anyone has any thoughts on frame style/mat color, I'm interested...

This issue has another of my top 10--"Poem for My 43rd Birthday"

One of my top 10s. "The Underground"

Unbelievable. The database never ceases to amaze me! Awesome work, mjp. I'm always so consumed with the print info, never really noticed all this great audio. Not enough hours...

I never got around to comparing "The Best Way To Get Famous..." but I like your line of thinking concerning "Face..." But I really want to thank you, mjp, for tipping me off to the 1962 recording. That's one area of Buk where I'm really clueless--the available audio. Someday I need to...

This version of "Face While Shaving" is different from the one in Madrigals: --contains the line "out of buried cities;" following "dumb ape wonder" --contains the line "from a swamp" following "like a plea"

I forgot this pic. Someone likes the word "crotchety."

Coastlines - No. 14 - Spring 1960 "Plea To A Passing Maid" "No Charge" "Love Is A Piece Of Paper Torn To Bits"

Approach No. 27 - 1958 - "The Gypsies Near Del Mar" (appears in The Roominghouse Madrigals - pg. 242 - 1988)

Pretty cool overview of Paul's bass lines. I am now especially awed by Rain and Taxman. And try to play "All My Loving" while singing....

The Beatles live on Sweedish TV 'Drop ~In' 1963 Very cool 4-song set from 1963. In addition to the music, there's some great banter and interesting audience reactions. She Loves You: 1:14 Twist And Shout: 4:04 I Saw Her Standing There: 6:54 Long Tall Sally: 9:45 Some user comments...

Great list, Roni. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on each. I'd like to do that with mine, but not sure I can articulate the reasons to my satisfaction. Hard to explain why they cause certain feelings. Re Remains: yes, I've always like this one, too. When I was younger, that first line...

Our local Giant supermarkets now sell alcohol. Continuing with my IPA exploration, on tap last night: Dogfish Head Brewery--Delaware (we consider it a local brewery) --Liquid Truth Serum IPA - 7% Sly Fox--Pottstown PA (a very local brewery, 10 mins from home) --Vulpulin - 6% Sweet Water...

The kids had wanted to get to Wildwood boardwalk, but we never made it. My only experience with shandies is Leinenkugel Summer Shandy. These could be a new investigative area...
