What’s that in the bottom right?

Dan Worsley, Monday, 8 June 2020 16:23 (three years ago) link

A thumb.

Subverted by buggery (Tom D.), Monday, 8 June 2020 16:23 (three years ago) link

Uh, yeah so it is. It’s like one of those optical illusions which become obvious when explained.

Dan Worsley, Monday, 8 June 2020 16:26 (three years ago) link

the thumb makes more sense on the original cover

visiting, Monday, 8 June 2020 16:30 (three years ago) link

lol that's even better

Doctor Casino, Monday, 8 June 2020 16:48 (three years ago) link

Also I'm sure that's been on the thread before.

Subverted by buggery (Tom D.), Monday, 8 June 2020 16:56 (three years ago) link

What happened, did Kodak sue them?

Lee626, Monday, 8 June 2020 17:01 (three years ago) link

Not sure if it's been on the thread before (doesn't appear in a ctrl f), but here's Unsung Heroes by the Dixie Dregs.

andrew m., Friday, 12 June 2020 15:24 (three years ago) link

That nail varnish is something too.

Dan Worsley, Friday, 12 June 2020 15:26 (three years ago) link

the ketchup application alone is the sign of a troubled mind.

feels very much like a portfolio leftover, from some magazine story photo shoot that didn't get used.

peace, man, Friday, 12 June 2020 17:01 (three years ago) link

Heck of a sandwich

Got picked up a box of curbside records yesterday and it contained a sealed copy of Glenn Frey's "No Fun Aloud" and I immediately thought of this thread.

Tōne Locatelli Romano (PBKR), Tuesday, 7 July 2020 18:34 (three years ago) link

I, not got.

Tōne Locatelli Romano (PBKR), Tuesday, 7 July 2020 18:34 (three years ago) link

lol that album is ridiculous. Partytown is an amazingly crass tune.

justice 4 CCR (Sparkle Motion), Tuesday, 7 July 2020 19:20 (three years ago) link

just read the lyrics without listening to it, picturing it all sardonically drawled out by donald fagen, and it kinda worked

Doctor Casino, Wednesday, 8 July 2020 04:01 (three years ago) link

Unfortunately Frey presents it as really bad wannabe Chuck Berry.

"...And the Gods Socially Distanced" (C. Grisso/McCain), Wednesday, 8 July 2020 04:29 (three years ago) link

Yeah no there's no irony

justice 4 CCR (Sparkle Motion), Wednesday, 8 July 2020 19:41 (three years ago) link

On the fadeout of Partytown he says "Can you say monster?" which I'm guessing may stem from Joe Walsh's term "monstering" (hoovering up large amounts of coke) detailed in Kristin Casey's book Rock Monster.

Album Moods: Rambunctious; Snide (Dan Peterson), Wednesday, 8 July 2020 20:58 (three years ago) link

(Well,) Yeah, 'Monster-ing' was Eagles slang for partying/getting fucked up. They even referenced it in a spin-out groove etching on at least one LP (and maybe even on No Fun Aloud).

"...And the Gods Socially Distanced" (C. Grisso/McCain), Wednesday, 8 July 2020 21:06 (three years ago) link

Lovely bunch o' lads.

Essential Reading: https://www.rollingstone.com/music/music-news/the-eagles-hell-is-for-heroes-80954/

Henley and Frey emerge from the control room a little before midnight (six hours early by their standards) and announce it is monster time. To monster, in Eaglese, is to ingest mind-altering substances and behave like a beast. The Eagles measure monsterdom in quarters, as in, “I was only three-quarters monstered last night.” A combination of bass-drum thumps and long-neck Budweisers (short-necks don’t make it) have already pushed Henley and Frey to the half-monster mark.

Don: Well, yeah.

tramp - put a record on

That's going on the last page of color plates in the coffee table book of this thread

justice 4 CCR (Sparkle Motion), Wednesday, 15 July 2020 05:26 (three years ago) link

backing up a bit...

A combination of bass-drum thumps and long-neck Budweisers (short-necks don’t make it) have already pushed Henley and Frey to the half-monster mark.

this is really stupid.
