Looks like for decades I've had the name of "Brontosaurus Stomp" wrong. Searching turns up a bunch of "Godzilla Stomp", including one by the Go-Gos, but not the same one. Thanks for straightening me out.

Good morning Kurt and all - good to hear you here! The Camus epigraph is extra apt as Jan 4 was the day he died in 1960.

Kurt -- yeah, Love is fun. I think most of my disappointment at the time was that it was being heralded as along the lines of Danger Mouse's Grey Album, which I found to be very creative & fun.
Avatar 9:46am
Kurt Gottschalk:

oh god, i forgot about the confluence of those two records. yeah, 'love' was not worth the hype. that's why i try to wait at least a decade after an album's release before i pick it up.

The F & W snowman was def in the MoMA garden last summer - I like how its 'meaning' changes with the seasons. @steveo, what's the deal with the Beasley sound installation when there is not a performance happening?
