Oh, she’s singing “live, live, live” I read it as “live, live, live”…

ObserverArt Dec 31, 2016 • 1:39:17pm

Nice tune. Love the little temp changes that pop up.

And Lucy has a great voice, so much better a singer than some of the pop stars of today. You know who they are.

Good stuff as usual from Charles, keeping his ear in tune to the tunes.

I’m closing out 2016 with the last long run of my training, a fourteen mile one. The longest I’ve ever run.

I watched as I hit my first half marathon distance run ever, in 2:43:39. As Lizards may know, my goal for my official half time is under 2:45:00.

I feel both exhilarated and exhausted at the moment, because 14 miles is a lot. (Under 3 hours for it.)

Their song history is phenomenal. The opening riff of All Day and All of the Night was a moment that changed my world. The British Invasion, taking American music and showing us how to do it. We mourn all the talent that passed this year, but we were witness and privileged to hear and enjoy them. That’s why I try to take in every live act I can. I saw most of the biggest and best, but I regret not seeing some.

I don’t really care much about knighthood and all that but good for Ray. I always have thought the Kinks were underrated.

My college boyfriend had every album they made, plus every bootleg found. We saw them three times, once on boyfriend’s birthday in Santa Barbara, CA, where Ray dedicated a song to him (I had written three letters) and everybody at the back door when they left thought it was Dave Davies’ birthday, because the first name is the same. When Dave came out, he shook David’s hand and said, ‘Oh, it’s you. Good luck to you then.’

Manifesto Records released a box set of all The Turtles albums this summer. It’s slightly pricey (I waited until I could get it on sale), but all of their albums have loads of great pop songs. Great records.

Was actually just talking about the Kinks with my Dad recently. He was listening to Van Morrison and I remarked that Van really doesn’t sound Irish and he made the point that most groups really don’t “sound” like their background but he did say the Kinks sounded very English. I always liked Sunny Afternoon by them but they have a lot of great songs and I think you can hear their influence on a lot of modern groups.

Go and listen to Teddy Bear Picnic. Get it in your head. Then think of Flo and Eddie with a band much like The Turtles, singing these lyrics. It was a big production number with costumes and insanity and quite a hoot. Might have been the last number, I was stoned with a gorgeous girl I was desperately trying to take home later and much younger. I don’t know if they are exact, but that’s as close as I could get a while back searching for it and it’s still there, so here it is. Happy New Year.

“…At least 35 people have been killed and another at least 40 people have been injured in the attack, according to the Istanbul governor.”
…………….

“Many” people were injured, according to Turkey’s NTV, with at least six ambulances transferring them to hospital for treatment. As many as 600 people are thought to have been in the club when attackers entered it, not longer after midnight.

If you think about it, the sheer amount of talent and groundbreaking sounds that happened in the 60’s and 70’s with analog equipment and just mike positioning and tearing speakers and tile rooms….The entire scene was alive from soul to Motown to blues to rock and roll to British and psychedelic. It all merged into sonic magnificence.

Since I’m posting music, I was also a fan of rhythm and blues and soul and Motown.
New Year’s is always about music. How can you dance if there is no music?

Here’s two masterpieces in my humble opinion. Both long versions. Turn it UP.

Papa was a Rolling Stone- The Temptations (Full Version)

At the 5:07 mark is the note. That is vibrato, young man. Great music.

From Washington’s Blog: What The Russian Hacking Report DOESN’T Say

It doesn’t claim that it’s accurate. Instead, the report starts with a disclaimer, and uses the same type of weasel words - “as is”, “does not provide any warranties of any kind regarding any information” - that someone selling a lemon uses when he doesn’t want to talk about the fact that the blasted thing won’t run and doesn’t want to get sued for intentional misrepresentation or wilful concealment:
delete

It doesn’t mention Wikileaks … not even once. In other words, the report does not allege that the Russians gave any Democratic Party or Podesta emails to Wikileaks
It doesn’t raise the fact that recent intelligence service allegations that Russia hacked the NSA and Germany turned out to be false
It doesn’t address the fact that Russia is too sophisticated to have used widely- known hacking methods (and wouldn’t have prominently paid tribute to a famous Russian intelligence officer within the hacking code), and that anyone could have copied these methods and names

It doesn’t address the fact that top NSA whistleblowers say that the NSA possesses records showing exactly how the emails went from the Democratic Party to Wikileaks, as it tracks all electronic communications in the U.S.
It doesn’t address the fact that top former NSA and CIA officials (and Wikileaks) claim that these were not hacks at all … but rather leaks by American insiders
It doesn’t address American intelligence services’ less-than-stellar history of truthfulness, and the fact that they routinely skew intelligence to justify preordained policy outcomes
It doesn’t address the fact that - according to the Los Angeles Times - the U.S. interfered in foreign elections 81 times between 1946 and 2000 … compared to only 36 times by the Ruskies
It doesn’t address the fact that most Americans aren’t buying the whole claim that the Russians hacked our election

Dessert will be crusted over week old bread pudding with improperly mixed soft serve on a dirty plate.

Speaking of Greenwald, I’m still surprised that many Muslims still support Glenn Greenwald in spite of his numerous flaws that consist of cozying up to Islamophobes.

Well, there’s this wingnut. I guess he is unaware of people like Jim Wright, veterans here at LGF and other sites, &c that spent most of our adult lives in the military.

In my town there is only one VFW member (me). VFW members here had 100% turn out for Hillary Clinton, if that means anything.

Not being snarky here for once, but what do the people in your area DO, besides hate liberals and contemplate economic suicide? You mentioned the lack of internet a bunch of times, is that by choice, or are they unaware of the existence of satellite? Are you the only Vet in the area period? Like, I don’t get your location.

The majority of my town is elderly. Satellite internet service is very expensive here.

According to a survey my wife did for the state library system, 37% of the people in town are veterans.

As for the economic suicide part, well, FOX radio and such have worked long and hard to convince people here they would be better off without things like Social Security. Since the local newspaper is also owned by a conservative, it is really hard to get out a competing message.

Open up the Tweet and read the replies. Trump replied to this. He actually took the time out of his fucking rants to defend this grift. WTF.

Funny thing is, Al Qaeda used couriers rather than emails, and in the end it didn’t keep ObL safe. ISIS uses the internet, social media etc. and they’ve been alarmingly successful.

I suspect he’ll get severe pushback on this from…well everywhere. But especially from the military.

High school seniors turn out to be pallbearers for a Navy veteran who had no living family when he died. None of the teenagers knew the man.

sunherald.com

Six young men from Long Beach High School gave up a morning of their Christmas vacation to pay final respects to a man they didn’t know.

The teens, all upperclassmen, served as pallbearers for Jerry Wayne Pino, who died Dec. 12 at age 70.

He served his country in Vietnam and wanted to be buried at Biloxi National Cemetery. Pino pre-arranged his service, but something was missing. Pallbearers were needed.

“He was an unclaimed veteran,” said Cathy Warden, who works at Riemann Family Funeral Homes, which handled Pino’s services. “Eva Boomer, who also works at Riemann’s, is a veteran, too. She asked me, ‘Do you think we could get (Warden’s son) Bryce and some upperclassmen to come out?’ “

Unfortunately, Bryce already had accepted an invitation out of town, which he nearly canceled to serve as one of Pino’s ballbearers. But he texted some classmates and within minutes, Boomer had six young men to serve as pallbearers.
