I admit I was taking a risk

Did I ever tell you guys about the time I saw Ron Wood in the Musée d’Orsay?

was he standing in front of a painting, dressed up like one of the figures in the painting, shrugging his shoulders with bemused expression as if to say "...BUT IS IT ART?"

Ha, something like that.

And following on from the Yawnsomely Literal thread. The High Level Ranters, "Gateshead Revisited" (a joke for Britishes).

LOL, I see what you mean!

My mum used to work with one of the High Level Ranters

The cover is even more literal as the bridge pictured is called the High Level Bridge (it's briefly featured in Get Carter)

Have we had this one?

Ray Manzarek - 'The Whole Thing Started With Rock & Roll Now It's Out Of Control'

lock thread imo

had a dream last night that featured an album called 'guitars don't bite... but my bass player does'

Boris the Spreader (NickB), Monday, 18 May 2020 08:55 (three years ago) link

I'd buy it.

the icing on the Manzarek album title is that it's all in one line
it'd look like a vague attempt at being clever if the first half was above the image and the second half below

Holy Shit, two of the Sugar Creek guys were Jonathan Edwards and Joe Dolce.

Yes, That Joe Dolce.

"...And the Gods Socially Distanced" (C. Grisso/McCain), Saturday, 23 May 2020 04:34 (three years ago) link

that Maxfield Parrish title is a really awkward mouthful. apparently Bernie Leadon, future Eagle, plays on that record.

Doctor Casino, Saturday, 23 May 2020 12:00 (three years ago) link

Blimey.

Indianapolis band represent.

Faith Band aren't bad, in a Steely Dan for beginners kind of way. Discogs tells me their drummer went on to run Ticketmaster, boo.

sorry but they are bad

mookieproof, Monday, 25 May 2020 05:09 (three years ago) link

wow that one is REALLY close to the Wood original, almost wish it had been the title of his followup record

Doctor Casino, Monday, 25 May 2020 13:14 (three years ago) link

listening to the Sugar Creek record on YouTube, it's really great!

The lack of space after the ellipsis is so jarring to me.

Also this is stellar thread content.
