Ask Alfred Soto

I like men who dress like Negronis.

Having a white Negroni right now, I’ll toast yr birthday.

Wow, I didn't know Charlie had grown out the stubble, which I guess is no surprise given his condition at the time.

Happy birthday Alfred, hope it's a great one!

Just came across this old reference that made me smile:

i pulled this thread up cuz i'm spending tonight in self loathing mode and listening t oPet Sounds and Smiley Smile era Beach Boys (just saw Mike Love and the band he calls the Beach Boys live a few weeks ago and they were pretty awesome)....

and this thread is clearly the biggest challopser I've ever read. Pet Sounds might be 'overrated' to some degree but there's little doubt in my mind that it's filled with fantastic songs. Hell, the first four tracks are pretty much flawless!

basically old-ILM was just a bunch of trolls who hated to get trolled and eventually got older, fatter, grayer in their safe haven corner of the blogosphere.

so presumably there's a thread from 2003 proclaiming Coda to be Led Zeppelin's best album.....

Love ya, Alfred. Keep us on our toes.

Ha! I'm part of Ye Olde ILM, eh?

I think it was more the early recognition of your love for an imperial artist's late career album.

No, it's about Alfred being really old.

I wasn't around when those acts released many of those albums, hence my (what I thought) fresh approach.
