Old Loves Die Hard is great too. They brought in Barry Palmer to replace Helmut Kollen after he left to make a solo album and then he died from carbon monoxide poisoning while listening to the tracks in his car in the garage while it was running. Stupid!
Helmut was great on bass and vocals though. Palmer was good, but they went on a downward spiral from which they never recovered after Kollen died.

the engagement at the "east cavalry field" (available at wikipedia) was morse complex than that. it was mostly fought by dismounted cavalry with skirmishing lines and artillery (!), flanking movements, as well as cavalry charges. twice custer charged oncoming confederates at the direction of his commander, gregg. they were dramatic clashes that blunted stuart's advance, but only as part of a larger tactical defensive scheme.
check out the wiki entry. it's interesting.

The crooks down in Columbia passed a big gas tax increase -- nothing but bullshit. Claimed the public was clamoring for it. It's for the roads. They is gonna fix 'em. Yeah, right.
They are fixing the road in front of my house here. Resurfacing it. The outfit doing is of course owned by one of the relatives of a local politician. What the hell they're doing, I don't know.
They're making a lot of racket, and have been for the last month, but they aren't anywhere near finished.
I don't much about road equipment, but after seeing a parade of I don't how many $millions worth of equipment parading up and down, I got interested.
They're using a "reclaimer". This is a YUGE contraption that chews up the old asphalt, and digs into the dirt below and mixes it up, spewing out what looks like loose dirt behind. They then roll it. They have a tanker truck running in front of the reclaimer with a big tank of some green solution that is sprayed into the mix as it's chewing everything up.
That thing makes the god-awfulest racket you've ever heard. There's a lot of rock underground here and my god, it rattled the cages all over the place. I thought the windows were going to shatter.
Anyway, they've been working on this, oh 3 - 4 mile stretch of road for over a month, and it looks like it's going to be a mess. They've washboarded it. After the reclaimer and rolling and rolling, and doing a bunch of other crap, some hellacious washboarding developed in some spots.
They're going to spend god knows how much money on it, and it's going to be nothing but a fuck up, I'm sure.

Dean Friedman
Way on the other side of the Hudson
Deep in the bosom of suburbia
I met a young girl she sang mighty fine
Tears on my pillow and Ave Maria
Standing by the water fall in Paramus Park
She was working for the friends of BAI
She was collecting quarters in a paper cup
She was looking for change and so was I
She was a Jewish girl, I fell in love with her
She wrote her number on the back of my hand
I called her up, I was all out of breath
I said, "Come hear me play in my rock and roll band"
I took a shower and I put on my best blue jeans
I picked her up in my new V double you van
She wore a peasant blouse with nothing underneath
I said "Hi", she said, "yeah, I guess I am"

In my world only you
Make me do for love

If it were up to me, my '70s playlist would mostly consist of Led Zeppelin, T. Rex, Slade, Thin Lizzy, Buzzcocks, Misfits, Nick Lowe, The Jam (in approximate chronological order).

on amazon alexa you can't have it set to shuffle, I don't think. You can say "Shuffle," then it does, but usually the first song has started playing and is not shuffled.
For a while, the first semi-beats of Immigrant Song and then "Alexa, Shuffle" and "Alexa, Skip" were daily things for me.

If you liked the movie, do read the book.
Lots of funny anecdotes.
Like about the time they were in the studio and a cop told them to move their cars or get ticketed.
Then he proceeded to lecture them about "getting real jobs".
The musicians were likely pulling down 200 times what the cop was making.

Saturday night and you're still hangin' around
Tired of living in your one horse town
You'd like to find a little hole in the ground
For awhile...
So you go to the village in your tie dyed jeans
And you stare at the junkies and the closet queens
It's like some pornographic magazine
And you smile
Captain Jack will get you high tonight
And take you to your special island
Captain Jack will get you by tonight
Just a little push, and you'll be smilin'
Oh yeah, ...

It's all part of the Zepplin/Who/Stones axis.

Firefall - not one damn mention of them. Y'all are sad, sad people.
Some perspicacious fellow mentioned Karla Bonoff earlier in the thread!!! Now we're talkin'.
Tumbled on to her through Linda Ronstadt's Hasten Down The Wind . Karla, Wendy Waldman and Linda did the backup vocals on a number of songs, most notably If He's Ever Near. They were affectionately called "The Orgasm Chorus" by those who lived in our house.
Anyhow, I've a HUUUUGEEEEE crush on Karla. I had a chance to see her at a show in NYC at The Bottom Line 1978/79. I had front row seats and snapped off a couple of rolls of film to capture the moment.
Talented singer/songwriter.

He's certainly led an interesting life. For years he thought he was Liv Tyler's father until a genetic test proved that Steve Tyler was the father. Oops.
He tired of the music business and came this ][ close to taking a regular job as a computer programmer. He still spends a lot of time coding software but I'm not sure whether he markets it.

Russian President Vladimir Putin wanted to make it clear that he had nothing to do with President Trump's decision to fire FBI Director James Comey, who was leading the investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election.
'Don't be angry with me. We have nothing to do with that,' Putin said to CBS News' Elizabeth Palmer, through his press aide Dmitry Peskov, who was translating. The Russian leader also noted that, 'Your question looks very funny for me.'
By the way, shouldn't there be an "alleged" before the word "Russian" in this phrase "investigation into Russian meddling in the 2016 presidential election."

Everybody was kung-fu fighting
Those kicks were fast as lightning
In fact it was a little bit frightening
But they fought with expert timing
They were funky China men from funky Chinatown
They were chopping them up and they were chopping them down
It's an ancient Chinese art and everybody knew their part
From a feint into a slip, and kicking from the hip

Played at every wedding for at least a decade. And poor Terry Kath is just terribly off key at the end.
Posted by: J.J. Sefton at May 10, 2017 09:23 PM (mbhDw)
True Story: Kath hated the song and didn't want to sing it. The rest of the band took him out to a restaurant, got him smashed, then dragged him back to the studio where he was too loaded to refuse to sing the song.
I'm a huge Kath fan. He's usually spot on with his vocals but slipped there.
I played keyboards for a band that was big in the Dallas area in the mid-to-late seventies. I bet I've played Colour My World more than Robert Lamm. I remember a huge quincinciera where we played the song for probably an hour.

But I don't know its name
That people from bad homes
Do again and again
It's big and it's bland
Full of tension and fear
They do it over there but we don't do it here
Fashion! Turn to the left
Fashion! Fashion!
We are the goon squad
And we're coming to town
Beep-beep

Teenage daughter is being pursued by a teenage boy. I am not best pleased. What's a good song for that?

Don't you know by now, you never take life on the chin
Still you sit and wonder why the past is gone
Baby, you'll go under if you don't carry onDon't misunderstand me
I realize it ain't easy to take,
But you've been hidin',
And I've been ridin' like the wind to find you.
Just you

You know, I thought about that a few weeks ago when I was traveling in Asia. People in Hong Kong and Singapore airports dress like normal people.
I think that's a sign that this country is going down the tubes.

Once saw a band screw with dancer's heads by playing La Grange, then switching to Boogie Chillin' and back again constantly.
Same band did an absolutely ROARING hard rock version of Hanky Panky by Tommy James and the Shondells.

Kath was considered the greatest rock guitarist by none other than Hendrix. Sadly, as they took a popper turn, his talents were wasted in the background.

Yep. Plus he battled drugs, alcohol, and depression.
I last saw him in November 1977 in Dallas. I think that was his second-to-last live performance.
I first saw them at the Hemisfair in San Antonio during the summer of 1968. Without my parents. Kids today would never understand how much freedom we had as children.

Really don't mind if you sit this one out
My word's but a whisper your deafness a SHOUT
I may make you feel but I can't make you think
Your sperm's in the gutter and your love's in the sink
So you ride yourselves over the fields
And you make all your animal deals
And your wise men don't know how it feels
To be thick as a brick

The hairs on your arm will stand up

Will you partake of that last offered cup
Or disappear into the potter's ground?

I wonder how the old folks are tonight.
Her name was Ann, and I'll be damned if I recall her face
She left me not knowin' what to do
Carefree Highway
Let me slip away on you
Carefree Highway
You've seen better days
The mornin'-after blues from my head down to my shoes
Carefree Highway
Let me slip away, slip away on you.
Turnin' back the pages to the times I love best
I wonder if she'll ever do the same
Now the thing that I call livin' is just bein' satisfied
With knowin' I got no one left to blame
Carefree Highway
I've got to see you, my old flame
Carefree Highway
You've seen better days
The mornin'-after blues, from my head down to my shoes
Carefree Highway
Let me slip away, slip away on you.
