nice shots, Tim

Charles Bradley has lost his battle with cancer. RIP. https://consequenceofsound.net/2017/09/r-i-p-charles-bradley-legendary-soul-singer-has-died-68/

I was disappointed that the Seahawks didn't sign him to be backup. They had the chance. We'll just hope Wilson lives through the O line this year.

it's early. this weekend against the Titans will be a test for my Seahawks. I'm officially worried. thank God we have a great D. my other team, the Raiders, are looking fantastic. there could be something magical going on there with Beast Mode bringing the extra oomph. fun so far!

Here we go, week 2. Hawks have a lovely get well game against SF for the home opener, Raiders are playing the Jets. UW Huskies handled Fresno State nicely. All in all a good football weekend hopefully.

RIP. We lost another great one.

understood. i put up with a lot of bad years in Seattle. i was just teasing you.

what was the name of that book by the marquis de sade?

It was a rugged day for me. @ least we have the 49ers next week. We should feel better after that!

Any interest in a NFL thread here? Tomorrow is a high holy day for me. 1st Seahawk game of the season & its a doozy: @ Green Bay. GO HAWKS!!!!! ( & to a slightly lesser extent: Go Raiders!).

Pete was on the Tonight show doing "Love Reign O'er Me". He looked & sounded great. Reminded myself why I can't watch Fallon. Fallon is so obnoxious with his fawning thing. Don't think he's that funny either. Sorry, got off track. Was worth putting up with to see Pete.

RIP

really nice tribute from Donald Fagen: http://www.rollingstone.com/music/news/read-donald-fagens-tribute-to-steely-dans-walter-becker-w500968

No official news out yet but link below is to his website. A favorite of mine. Met him once & he was a nice guy. Enjoyed his dark sense of humour with Steely Dan. http://www.walterbecker.com/

he has never put out a bad record. this one is very good.

find the art online, right click on image, save image adress. then use picture icon above (under & slightly to left of emoticon icon). put address between the 2 s.

i was just going to post this. i got a download with my preorder. most excellent! i don't think neil has ever put out a bad record. this one is mellow & beautiful.

I liked the last one plenty but the new one is a giant leap forward to my ears.

Happy Birthday Jeff. Half century mark! Don't think too much about that....

Robert has said that he can write 3 songs whilst on the toilet & 2 them would be good. Saying that he is a character is a vast understatement. I used to have 2 records of nothing but his drunken rants during shows. Hilarious.

The last one was pretty good, too although maybe could've used a little editing. Not Robert's strong suit haha. The current lineup is strong with Bobby Bare Jr & Doug Gillard. I read 1 review that compared the current era/lineup with the TVT era. Not a bad comparison. There were a lot of good songs on the TVT records & the production values were a little higher. The only bad thing these days (& for awhile now) is the overgrown frat boy contingent. Gets tiresome. Wasn't that way in the earlier years. First time I saw them was Alien Lanes era & have been a loyal follower. I gave

the new record is very, very good.

I'm thinking that this & Drive-by Truckers "What it Means" would make an awesome split single for charity....

Downloaded it. Will play when the house wakes up. Nice for Jeff to be able to put out a little memorial for his dad.

I'd start with the Propeller/Vampire on Titus cd if you can find it. Mighty lot of good songs on that. I started on Bee Thousand when it came out.
