MONO RULES!!!!
Listening to WPLR 99.1
The local rock station . And I am listening to it in Hi-Fidelity MONO baby!
Even with my shit ears this is great!
Right now they are playing some Zepplin!

One of the best moves I ever made was having my dads old HH Scott Stereomaster (it’s mono lol!)
TUBE receiver refurbished !
It’s Fucking Great!
And I am playing it thru a shitty beat up cheap ass realistic transistor 20 watt PA and one smaller Infinity bookshelf I bought 40 years ago .

Fuck Stereo !
FM still rocks it baby!  In Mono!
WOOT!
Tubes! They have soul !
I never cared that much for Journey , but they sound great!

Ya know, listen to an old triumph or a shovelhead off in the distance. It’s IRON barrels vs shit sounding alloy cylinders .
Tubes Vs transistors . Same deal .
The Soulful sounds of life.
71 yo and I can still feel the love.

lol. that's long ago. not sure i could pick that up back then.
WPLR here was AOR. now its rock. some of the stuff would be oldies to young people. a lot of headbanger crap mixed with classic rock and newer stuff from a few years ago.

our top 40 FM was WDRC out of Hartford. my friend was sat nite oldies jock for a while. he does Fun Tower
 Radio on the internet now.  
but the DRC top 40 i listed too back in like 1965 was using the same receiver i am talking about here. lol.

^^^^^^

Early one morning, the sun was shining
I was laying in bed
Wondering if she'd changed it all
If her hair was still red

Her folks, they said, our lives together
Sure was gonna be rough
They never did like mama's homemade dress
Papa's bankbook wasn't big enough

And I was standing on the side of the road
Rain falling on my shoes
Heading out for the East Coast
Lord knows I've paid some dues getting through
Tangled up in blue

She was married when we first met
Soon to be divorced
I helped her out of a jam, I guess
But I used a little too much force

We drove that car as far as we could
Abandoned it out west
Split up on a dark, sad night
Both agreeing it was best

She turned around to look at me
As I was walking away
I heard her say over my shoulder
"We'll meet again someday on the avenue"
Tangled up in blue

I had a job in the great north woods
Working as a cook for a spell
But I never did like it all that much
And one day the axe just fell

So I drifted down to New Orleans
Where I's lucky for to be employed
Working for a while on a fishing boat
Right outside of Delacroix

But all the while I was alone
The past was close behind
I seen a lot of women
But she never escaped my mind, and I just grew
Tangled up in blue

She was working in a topless place
And I stopped in for a beer
I just kept looking at the sight of her face
In the spotlight so clear

And later on when the crowd thinned out
I's just about to do the same
She was standing there in back of my chair
Said, "Tell me, don't I know your name?"

I muttered something underneath my breath
She studied the lines on my face
I must admit I felt a little uneasy
When she bent down to tie the laces of my shoe
Tangled up in blue

She lit a burner on the stove and offered me a pipe
"I thought you'd never say hello," she said
"You look like the silent type"
Then she opened up a book of poems and handed it to me
Written by an Italian poet from the 13th century

And every one of them words rang true
And glowed like burning coal
Pouring off of every page
Like it was written in my soul, from me to you
Tangled up in blue

I lived with them on Montague Street
In a basement down the stairs
There was music in the cafés at night
And revolution in the air

Then he started into dealing with slaves
And something inside of him died
She had to sell everything she owned
And froze up inside

And when finally the bottom fell out
I became withdrawn
The only thing I knew how to do
Was to keep on keeping on, like a bird that flew
Tangled up in blue

So now I'm going back again
I got to get her somehow
All the people we used to know
They're an illusion to me now

Some are mathematicians
Some are carpenter's wives
Don't know how it all got started
I don't what they do with their lives

But me, I'm still on the road
Heading for another joint
We always did feel the same
We just saw it from a different point of view
Tangled up in blue

Always liked canned heat!

[oldironnow]

Old music with home and promotional film from another planet.

Various animals working in a circus and factories.

Total color saturation.

A flight in a B-24 variant.

Perhaps important cities from this planet.

The motorcycle games of what looks like a club on a run.

Vintage NASCAR featuring cars that appear to be defectively impossible to control. Apparently designed to only move in arcs and curves.

Smokey Yunick at work.

Other notable creatures of the time in their racing environment.

The construction and opening of a large high-banked oval track.

Old film from another low-banked oval featuring open-wheel cars that are apparently designed to destroy the operators.  





I was just looking for music.

Sometimes a good thing can be, well, too good……

[hacksaw]

Tone Loc?
Maybe I am tone deaf . Well I am half deaf.
Good beat . Decent tune. Don’t know if it’s too much of a good thing.  

[grado]

Ya, it’s a snappy tune.
It’s when I saw the lyrics somewhere that
made it even better😀

Cold coolin' at a bar, and I'm lookin' for some action
But like Mike Jagger said, I can't get no satisfaction
The girls are all around, but none of them want to get with me
My threads are fresh and I'm lookin' def, yo, what's up with L-o-see?
The girls is all jockin' at the other end of the bar
Havin' drinks with some no-name chump, when they know that I'm the star
So I got up and strolled over to the other side of the cantina
I asked the guy, "Why you so fly?" he said, "Funky Cold Medina"

Funky Cold Medina

This brother told me a secret on how to get more chicks
Put a little Medina in your glass, and the girls'll come real quick
It's better than any alcohol or aphrodisiac
A couple of sips of this love potion, and she'll be on your lap
So I gave some to my dog when he began to beg
Then he licked his bowl and he looked at me and did the wild thing on my leg
He used to scratch and bite me, before he was much much meaner
But now all the poodles run to my house for the Funky Cold Medina

You know what I'm sayin'
I got every dog in my neighborhood breakin' down my door
I got Spuds McKenzie
Alex from Stroh's
They won't leave my dog alone with that Medina, pal

I went up to this girl, she said, "Hi, my name is Sheena"
I thought she'd be good to go with a little Funky Cold Medina
She said, "I'd like a drink," I said, "Ehm - ok, I'll go get it"
Then a couple sips she cold licked her lips, and I knew that she was with it
So I took her to my crib, and everything went well as planned
But when she got undressed, it was a big old mess, Sheena was a man
So I threw him out, I don't fool around with no Oscar Meyer wiener
You must be sure that the girl is pure for the Funky Cold Medina

You know, ain't no plans with a man
This is the 80's, and I'm down with the ladies
Ya know?

Break it down

Back in the saddle, lookin' for a little affection
I took a shot as a contestant on _The Love Connection_
The audience voted, and you know they picked a winner
I took my date to the Hilton for Medina and some dinner
She had a few drinks, I'm thinkin' soon what I'll be gettin'
Instead she started talkin' 'bout plans for our weddin
I said, "Wait, slow down, love, not so fast says, I'll be seein' ya"
That's why I found you don't play around with the Funky Cold Medina

Ya know what I'm sayin'
That Medina's a monster, why'all

[hacksaw]

Tone Loc this MFer !

Pretty cool how they made a little bike look like so much fun. I don’t think my wife and I could fit on a Cub. Gravity has taken over and stopped at my belt.
