Tuesday: yep- acoustic picking...that's my big thing...especially oldies, tho I like messing with some newer stuff...have been working with a program my bro got me recently tho to help me develop more on my electric...I can feel electric blues stuck in me trying to get out

I'm surprised you knew that about me tho - I didn't think I talked all that much about it...

Tuesday: oh ok...I guess I do talk about it with other people who play...I never thought it was real hard, but other people tell me that it is... I guess it's like anything ele. I can play instruments, but I can't sing well, or write lyrics or poetry....
and btw, he told me you sing real pretty

baddessi: Sounds like Butch is quite the pillow talker?

Family Man: I personally have never had "pillow talk" with butch or anyone else on here...I save that for my Man, Dan...just general chatting on here...
but here ya go..have a listen

baddessi:

baddessi: I loved Don Cornelius,great host.Is it just me? or can you actually hear the record crackle as she lip syncs?

Family Man: I was too young for Elvis' death to make an impact on me...but when Lennon died I could feel it in my gut.

The Usurper: you and me both....I broke down an just sobbed while at work....it was SO wrong...

Jim Dandy: LOL! Maybe..didn't notice!!! But I believe you! I was just happy to find a 'pillow talk" song on u tube! I haven't heard that song in years...cracked me up! I had to post it!

Family Man:  Did you tell everyone at the beach?  Or were they telling you?  That's brutal, losing those tickets as WELL as the King.  

Jim Dandy:  You have to admit that Elvis dying was a big ending for us kids of the 50s/60s.  I got my first Elvis record when I was 10.  It was the first record he ever sold. and it was the first record I ever owned..  That's why we remember so specifically where we were, and what we were doing.  I almost remember what I was wearing!

Thanks for the few minutes with Beck.  He's really a guitarist, isn't he?

Yeah, I heard the pops too.  Kind of unnerving, but lip syncing was the thing back in that day.

TexasToest: Think he said that his Mom still has those tickets so I don't think they lost them.

I was rolling north on Stemmons Freeway in Dallas, somewhere between Walnut Hill, and Royal Lane, going back to the office after lunch.  The car, 1975 orange Honda Civic, with those black and white hounds tooth checked seats.  I was listening to the radio, and at about 1 oçlock, I heard the news.  I found myself in that never land, where everything is strange, and had to pull off the road.  It seemed unreal to me - like he never existed, but he'd always existed.  The rest of that day, I was in total denial.  It had to have been a mistake.

TexasToest: I bought this book back in the mid 80's,apparently it's worth a fortune now(I lost it)but here is the tape that came with the book.

TexasToest: Well wow. And wow Beck.

Jim Dandy:  The tape is pretty muddy.  I don't think I could hear more than a word in 50.  The voice had an Elvis-like sound.  But, Elvis mumbled, so it could be the real thing.  I've heard Elvis-is-still-alive stories almost from the day he died.  I don't know, he used to have to fight for his privacy, maybe he got tired of it, bought a mountain, and got on top of it. 

gogul:  Marvelous stuff you bring us.  Every one of those guys are at the top of their game!  That base was pretty amazing too, I mean the instrument itself.  I'm going to add that video to my favorites.

Jim Dandy:
I was really high once many moons ago and my friend convinced me that if I played Jailhouse Rock backwards, I would hear a walrus singing a Smokey Robinson medley, so I tried and proceeded to bust my needle on my BSR McDonald turntable,and then I convinced him to let me borrow his Onkyo cassette player until I got a new needle...we never remained friends after that for some reason....

awesome: Ah...the good old days, huh?

awesome:  That Robinson video is amazing, great quality.  Man, there were so many things that were different in the 60s, and one was the way people dressed when they entertained.  Another is the dance steps that the back-up singers would do in unison.  That was a great video, thanks.

TexasToest: I guess I'm a sucker for a good conspiracy theory lol,anyway,this is a special moment from a few years back on this anniversary http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Xml2rNLBCsI

awesome: I remember the ole backword masking craze,maybe that's part of music lovers infactuation with vinyal to this day,it had a magic to it.On the subject of Smokey

TexasToest: I think we heard the news on the radio at the beach, and it kinda spread pretty quickly. I believe my mom still has the unused tickets to that show!

Nirvana: This was an underground hit locally a few decades back

Jim Dandy: LOL, I haven't heard that one before. love it.

TexasToest: Look to the column to the right of the video,they have a wriiten transcript

I was at home upstairs. I am pretty sure it was a Saturday and my dad shouted me and said it was on the news that Elvis had died. I came down and we watched the news. It was hard to believe as he was so young.

Jim Dandy:  Awwww, that was sweet.  I'd never seen that, and today was the best day to play it. Thanks.  I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU BEAT ME!  I heard that Elvis is Everywhere this morning on my way to work.  I ran straight home this evening, and was going to post it, and bam.....you were here first.  Thanks for giving everyone an advance in spite of my schedule. 

Family Man:  I wonder what those tickets are worth these days?  Have you looked for them on eBay?

Eriisa:  The lyrics are online. illustrated no less  This is a hoot and a half.

Mousetrap:  It was a Saturday.

TexasToest: I wonder what those tickets are worth these days? Have you looked for them on eBay?

I just looked. There were a couple starting at 350.00 each.And one starting at 450.00. None of them had any bids yet though!

Stevie Ray had to die on us, but Dallas has a few more tricks up her sleeve.  Eric Johnson is another home boy done good, and this vid will make you a believer.

Family Man:  You'd think they would sell for something today, wouldn't you?

Stones and Hendrix fans might enjoy it

Dolittle:  OK, you brought tears to my eyes, and a pain my my heart.  Desparado is the story of my life to date.  It's the one Gary and I worked out when I was in Cali in November. 

Jim Dandy:  Did you like the Hendrix and Stones thing?  I did.  Figure I'm a fan then.  It was kind of like being invited to the party.

I still find it strange that Victor Conte was in this band and then went on to open Balco Laboratories ( the maker of the designer steroids that Barry bonds allegedly used...and went to jail for it...

awesome:  What is it they say about once a doper always a doper?

Jim Dandy:  I know, so I'll guess last.

TexasToest: That's deep,Lemmy tell ya sumptin
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3rnIuow93vo&mode=related&search=

Jim Dandy: I know it's Lemmy.  Lil Lemmy Lemmy Kilmister.  Motorhead ring a bell?

Tuesday: They should book these guys

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RnjNWROMI2U

TexasToest: I became interested in Hawkwind because I'm in the midst of reading Lemmy's book White Line Fever,trippy band eh.

I was thinking about the Ozark Mountain Daredevils just a couple weeks ago, wondering what in the world happened to them.  I got on to them in the 70s from a friend who used to hang with them in Missouri and Kansas when they were just little hometown boys.  I love that guy's harp.  It haunts me. 

Interesting, you're reading that book.  Isn't there a song?  Yeah, Merle Haggard wrote it, White Line Fever.  What a difference in disciplines, huh?  How is the book?

Tuesday:  You going?  I love to go to those things.  I went to one in Pahuska OK once, and never laughed so much in my life.  It rained, and we were all camping in a field where there was NO grass.  Here are all these guys in their leathers trying to ride through these muddy bogs to get to town to buy more beer.  They were falling like logs off a truck...it was hilarious.  But, we had a lot of fun.

awesome: Thank you so much for that,I love J.Geils.I fell in love with them listening to the BLOW YOUR FACE OFF live album.Peter Wolf's rap before MUSTA GOT LOST is a gem
