    Billy Joel

    This song ls a slow burn, but I really like it, channeling his inner Righteous Brothers, much better than anything off of An Innocent Man... Very underrated live album, great versions of his early catalog. Let's do some Ronettes... Perfect ending to his best album, really sums up the themes of lost idealism, unfulfilled promises and expectations, broken dreams...
  2. Several outstanding Tony Banks solos on this one. all while playing background keys as well...
  3. Yeah, I've seen them at Walmart also. Don't care, gobbled 'em down faster than goddamn Cookie Monster.
  4. Don't care if already posted, these are crack. Currently available with green, red or white frosting (I got the white with red and green sprinkles, box will be destroyed by tomorrow night...)
  5. Sugar? No thank you, Turkish; I'm sweet enough.
  6. Maybe it's a benefit of being a donor and having a tree fiddy tag, but all my posts have a permanent edit button on them, just checked one I made in May and it has an edit button. Membership has its privileges, apparently.
  7. It's actually like canadian bacon. Think an Egg McMuffin, basically that's Taylor Ham.
  8. Nah, pretty sure from the get-go aggy knew EXACTLY what it meant.

    I read that a while back before I had even heard of the band, never listened to a note just based off of that article until the video above. It's a'ight, but yeah, can't get past the whole poser thing. I'll stick to Dale Watson and the Derailers, relatively new guy named Weldon Henson, plays the Spoke a lot, is pretty darn good too. (Went to the Luckenbach Mud Dobber fest a few years ago, Weldon Henson, John Evans, Dale Watson, and Chuck Mead (ex-BR549), that was a damn good day of music.)
  10. (caveat - not sure they were ever considered "great", but since we're mainly talking classic rock here...) I'm a prog rock guy, Floyd, Genesis, King Crimson, Yes, Tull, love some, like others, but god almighty is ELP the most bloated bunch of horseshit I've ever heard. From the Beginning, Lucky Man, Karn Evil 9 single, that's it, everything else is just Keith Emerson jacking off for 20 minutes at a pop. Ugh.
  11. Definitely belongs in the punchable face thread.

  13. Any flavor'll do: Add some chicken, canned corn, black beans, & pickled jalapenos - instant tortilla soup:
  14. Every day I get reminded of this line from All the President's Men: Look, forget the myths the media's created about the White House--the truth is, these are not very bright guys, and things got out of hand.
  15. Not at this juncture. "I can't believe I'm losing to this guy..."
  16. NM, not gonna dox some dude. He does list himself on linkedin as a writer for shaggytexas, however.
  17. Gotta love name-dropping your band into a song (seriously underrated album by the way...)
  18. The Beatles did like their yeahs....
  19. Ha! I do a polka podcast and always lead off my December show with that Jim Reeves Christmas polka. Usually. I've used this one once or twice as well, pretty kitschy...
  20. Correct. They did the same thing for the Revolution video (filmed the same day), live vocals over studio track. Similarly, for All You Need is Love (performed live for a world wide satellite broadcast), they sang live to again a pre-recorded backing track (the performance was also being recorded by George Martin), but then John went back and re-recorded his lead vocal. So the released version = pre-recorded backing track+live broadcast "background" vocals (the crowd, the She Loves You and Yesterday shout outs...)+re-recorded lead vocal.
