"Meet Me In The Bottom" is an old Blues saying.

waht does it mean?

plp will eat itself (NickB), Friday, 13 October 2017 23:00 (eight years ago)

It's the river bottom. Low-lying alluvial land situated along the banks of a river.

I've only heard it in the southern US.

Not 80s, but damn this hair needs to be celebrated somewhere.

For a second I thought that LP was on Zappa's Bizarre label.

what's going on with the collar on his shirt? I kind of want a shirt like that

IF (Terrorist) Yes, Explain (man alive), Friday, 20 October 2017 16:49 (eight years ago)

nehru collar?

niels, Friday, 20 October 2017 17:35 (eight years ago)

yeah it's a nehru/mandarin collar.

new noise, Friday, 20 October 2017 17:49 (eight years ago)

Hope the inner sleeve has a from-above view of Ricky's hair, to provide the complete schematics of how it was engineered. I recall collarless dress shirts really coming into their own in the late-80s, usually accompanied by a tiny ponytail. Skaggs was out in front.

Mungolian Jerryset (bendy), Friday, 20 October 2017 17:51 (eight years ago)

from the side he kind of looks like severely compressed burt reynolds

IF (Terrorist) Yes, Explain (man alive), Friday, 20 October 2017 17:55 (eight years ago)

his hair is stunning what a work of art

I wasn't aware until just this minute that the debut album by Pilot is titled From the Album of the Same Name.

Is Michael Franks' one bad habit the little pinup in the locker there? What am I looking for here?

andrew m., Wednesday, 8 November 2017 17:00 (eight years ago)

Also, I will be keeping my eyes out for a silk leopard scarf like the fella from Max Webster. That is tight.

andrew m., Wednesday, 8 November 2017 17:01 (eight years ago)

Also also, figured out why Kip Addotta sounded so familiar to me. Dr. Demento.

andrew m., Wednesday, 8 November 2017 17:04 (eight years ago)

I wonder what percentage of these album have title tracks?

(Raphael Ravenscroft "Her Father Didn't Like Me Anyway" is an early Gerry Rafferty song from when he was in the Humblebums with Billy Connelly.)

Art Garfunkel - Fate for Breakfast

flappy bird, Thursday, 16 November 2017 17:44 (eight years ago)

Never been able to decide whether he's making a gun shape with his hand on that sleeve.

Tim, Thursday, 16 November 2017 17:53 (eight years ago)

Sucking fate from his fingers I think

めんどくさかった (Matt #2), Thursday, 16 November 2017 18:11 (eight years ago)

Wow @ Bob Williamson

per wiki: "The album was issued in five different sleeves, each with a different shot of Art Garfunkel at the breakfast table."

This isn't really a horrible album title I just like the idea of a guy in a leather jacket living in a cave somewhere with his guitar and amps and spare set of sneakers with a calendar on the wall to tell him when he must next descend the mountain to bring rock and roll to the distrustful villagers, also Malcolm Tomlinson is such an un-rock 'n' roll name.

Malcolm Tomlinson, "Rock and Roll Hermit".

I happened to see a bunch of Pure Prairie League LPs at a thrift store over the weekend. They had a long string of these: "Bustin' Out," "If The Shoe Fits", "Takin' The Stage," "Just Fly"...
