It's not fun, that's for sure. How did they handle the lyrics to Sweet Black Angel? When I was a kid I could not make out the words to that song.

I figure it is out there. I never knew about that until I read it in The Complete Beatles Chronicle.

Not a bonus or hidden track as described in the Youtube/Wikipedia listing, but rather a mistake that was left in: I think that take is off of the Alternate Abbey Road - or whatever it is called (Beatles bootleg).

Thanks. I will check that source out later. I have a rip in my eardrum again, so no music for me for a while.

And now he has a new one out. I was joking the other day that he must own The History Chanel and a few other channels. I noticed there were various documentaries on that had to do with the subject of his book. And in some cases, they were simply infomercials for his book. He is smart - he took the genre of men's adventure stories/action adventure/historical writing, stole some stuff from other books, mixed them together, and came out on top. He has sold over 100 million books so far, I do believe. Those who dislike Moby Dick should check out this version: Moby Dick (DVD)(1998).

I read something somewhere once about how all those old bands had to clean up if they wanted to become video stars - so that is how we got old dudes dressing like Duran Duran. Pretty funny.

There should be a date about halfway on the face of the cd. I never buy used cds anymore. I have bought some new re-masters of cds from Amazon before, and they turned out to be the old version of the cd. I sent them back.

You probably have the 1987 version. Although, it sounds like they used the same booklet in the new release.

There are some AUD sources up at bt.etree.org (of course). I think I may grab one of them.

I can handle Pry, To.

Although I love Vitalogy, I've always thought I could do without: Bugs, Aye Davanita, and Hey Foxymophandlemama, That's Me. I think it's funny that Immortality is stuck in between the last two though. To me, that is one of the best Pearl Jam songs of all time.

I think a reason a lot of those bands changed was due to MTV. I also think that the massive success of Phil's first solo album led to the band making more radio friendly music.

Taper's Section (November 2 - November 8, 2009)

From Jambands.com:

They even played Bee Girl (Philadelphia, setlists).

Good stuff: It's still my favorite U2 album, and always has been.

Webisode. I have liked some of the ones they did in the past, but I thought that one was run of the mill. Plus, I think it is a chance to give Mindy her own deal. I believe she is suppose to have her own show on NBC at some point.

I received The Unforgettable Fire (2 cd version) from Amazon yesterday. I believe this is the 4th time I have bought the album. My first thought is that it breathes more now, the sound is not so muddy and claustrophobic. The packaging is about the same as The Joshua Tree re-master (2 cd version). The four times: Cassette (original pressing) (October 1984) - I sort of recall buying it the week it came out. Vinyl (original pressing) - I don't recall - late 1980s. CD (original pressing) - I think I got the cd in late 1993. CD (the new one) - Yesterday.

I should have posted the links last night: The Ghouls and Gals post with photographs. Pax AM Store Foggy TV (you can sign-up here).

It's in six parts. I am surprised it is on Youtube, as I think it is officially out on DVD.

The Paul Lynde Halloween Special (1976)

I thought it was odd that it was made to look like a Halloween episode in the promos. Last week was a bit dark with Pam screaming and what not.

I still think the sound is a bit sterile or something to that effect. From what I have read, it was mostly recorded live, and at least one song was recorded outside. There are two vinyl bonus tracks out there to be had - if one looks. They are: Here Comes Daylight and Hole in Your Soul. I really like the songs Oh Josephine and Whoa Mule.

I guess you don't want a copy of my Mountain Jam boxset then. LOL.
