Sun. Dec 22nd, 3pm - 5pm:
The Unsolicited Return of the Winter Soul-stice (fill-in for Paul Bruno)
(More info...)
You can't stop the seasons from turning, and you evidently also can't stop an old dog from performing his one old trick. Answering the teeming clamor of one New York Times food columnist
, Gaylord Fields is returning to WFMU's airwaves for a one-off Winter Soul-stice program. In his time away he's learned nothing, so the format will remain the same: two hours of original 1960s soul 45s, and the abuse of an expensive reverb machine for the sake of corny vocal effects.
Happy Palm Sunday! I know this because why else would people be carrying all those palm fronds in the streets of NYC nowadays?

Good Afternoon, Gaylord and the Galordained. I seem to remember that "eating the bark off of trees" story as one of those bits of apocrypha that got a little out of hand, in those heady days of yore...
@Moe: Is McKenna saying that dropping acid brings on (or brings out latent) necrophilic tendencies?

Tommy:
Mac's bass part on SOMETHING is just so genius, very complimentary to Harrison's solo ..had the solo been busier it wouldn't have worked but he really fills in the gaps of George's somewhat sparse at times yet perfect guitar work.

I believe the narrator said they were bark-biting "on the Sunset Strip". Maybe it was a local fad there. Joe Friday also mentioned a teen who went blind from staring ecstatically at the sun.
@glenn: His sometimes overwhelming bossiness/perfectionism was pretty much responsible for Abbey Road's existence at a time when his primary partner often couldn't give a tinker's.
oh, i get it, i really do. i don't even mind the perfectionism, in fact, i applaud it. it's more his whiny desperation of the last forty years that i hate.
@glenn: If you had the music world saying your dead partner was an experimental genius and you're a facile popsmith, I'd chafe and whinge about it, too. Being talented and rich beyond measure doesn't preclude artistic insecurity.

Loving "cast away dreams"! Great set as always! Much love from Ash.
lindsey sometimes gets caught up in his home studio effects and macintosh sounding production - but the man can write a song.

Tommy:
I'm in a model railroad club and there is one guy in the club who can be a bit pedantic, annoying and pushy but many things wouldn't get done without him. I think of him as Paul Mccartney of the club
John and Paul learned a lot from George M, and not just technical stuffe -- they also gleaned the idea of there being a place for experimentation and risk-taking in creating pop music.

Moe:
rest of the quote reads : it means that you never figured out what it was all about... McKenna

One of my favorite Serge songs even though the subject matter is not so hot
also, i think ringo, who is a fantastic drummer, notwithstanding the endlessly slaggery by people who have no idea how to play drums, has more right to feel artistically insecure than paul.
I can extol the genius-level singing, songwriting, and piano playing of Charlie Rich (and of his equally talented songwriter of a wife, Margaret Ann) for days!
i have the anne margaret album from 62 or so. the liner notes were fro george burns, who i suppose was an authority on singers. watch the movie 'kitten with a whip' if you've never seen it. she. is. trouble!
@MrC: I have the 45 (on Imperial, from 1964 -- it's one of my favorite songs of all time), but I played what you heard off a CD called Clydie King: The Imperial and Minit Years, released on EMI UK in2007.
@MrC: When they say "20 feet from stardom," they're talking about Clydie, who's been on dozens of records everyone knows and never had a hit to her own name.
@pedanticwolf: I told Julie about you, me, and Friendly's 12-scoop Crowd Pleaser. And how when we finished it, we complained that we still had room for more.
Tommy, it'd be hard to conceive of a way that caramelizing a food would reduce its K content. You'd have to wash it out & discard some portion for the K to leave w it.
It so happens I've a banana here that I broiled along w a chicken breast, carrots, onions, & mushrooms. The sugar in the banana does burn a little, but the potasscium has no place to go. Over time, some of it does radioactively decay, of course. Bananas are notoriously radioactive for their K, which does include some radioisotope.
