An underground journey through the history of psychedelic rock, modern music, shimmering noise, free jazz, punk, funk, children's records played at the wrong speed, tape cut-up, static, the composition of decomposition, and subversive spoken word.

i'm not unfamiliar with these concepts, so why does the piece strike me funny?
maybe because Laurie once claimed the Hamptons as a spiritual home. i keep picturing disembodied Laurie dodging friday night traffic.
Avatar 10:34am
Itzall ClearD'me Nåu:

Haha. I thought so... sometimes "mis-heard" lyrics/phrases can be better than the original. For years I heard "I'll be DAMNED" instead of "I'll be THERE" in the Temptations (or 4 Tops) song of the same title. Of course I was a child so I probably just WANTED it to be that.

@LindaLee: Comedy is tragedy plus distance.

Also, FWIW Jonathan your death theme is somewhat appropriate to me since this is the anniversary of my mom’s passing back in the 1990s. So hey; that’s on my mind.

JakeGould:

Thanks Linda. FWIW, my mom passed away at Coney Island Hospital. It has a really unearned reputation as being “a dump” because… Who knows. Proximity to Coney Island? Anyway we lived nearby and we had great care there in all cases (my mom and dad as well). That unearned hatred was one of my first lessons of classism and prejudice even in healthcare and life/death situations.

Beware of anyone saying a hospital is “good” or “bad.” It’s never as clear cut as that.

@Rich: My neighborhood is Brooklyn is pretty lunkheaded (non-hipster Brooklyn) but a nice small bar has an open mic night that I force myself to go to since I want to support things that are generally good—like this bar—but my God this last one as just people singing on guitar OMFG did I down those beers.

@JG: That's actually being 'woke'. Few of them make it that far, I suspect. That's an ugly look into a stark mirror that few can take, unless life's completely turned upsidedown and knocked them on their ass. Even then.
