Allhallowsday

Probably the first BEATLES album I bought. Of course, I was maybe 12 and the record already 3 years old. I've always loved it, dripping in treacle as parts are.

I'm aware of it, but not seen it. Now I must!

WHEN A STRANGER CALLS (1979) - on TCM Underground last night. I saw it new in the theater and thought it was DUMB then. I looked at it last night to see if it is as implausible, boring, and irritating as I had remembered. Yup. It is. Horse hockey!

VANGELIS China

The ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND Live At Filmore East

All great stuff. BELA at his best!

Vlado Perlemuter plays Ravel (1961)

NEIL YOUNG After The Goldrush

Lots of great BEATLES music to enjoy, even with the hacked up USA releases. If I remember right, the RARITIES collection has annotation that points out that one of the "rarities" had sold millions of copies as the flip of an early 45.

Does TCM ever show it?

Couldn't agree more. Are you planning to review BEATLES RARITIES? I bought this one the year it was new, the UK release :

I've read or seen in documentaries that JULIAN had to buy back his own letters to his father; the best thing to know is that there was repair work on their relationship between father and son.

When PAUL was good, nobody but JOHN could write a better melody; when PAUL was great, nobody could write a sweeter song. You remind me over my adoration of LENNON that PAUL wrote all of the BEATLES songs that I grew up loving. I've read dreadful things about JOHN and his treatment of CYNTHIA and there's no denying that 1967 was a pivotal year for the whole world. I turned 6 that November. I've not read much good about YOKO and I even mean original stories in LOOK and EYE magazines... "You spilled sugar on the table." I had a box of BEATLES clippings. I never liked YOKO.

I think PAUL said this song was written for JOHN's son, perceived by PAUL as neglected, and began as "Hey Jules". Apparently, there's truth in his perception.

I've owned the album for years, and the title track opens the album. I've heard "It's Alright Now" enough, and when a song is an overplayed hit, I have a habit now of not listening to it by walking away. We agree.

It's a good album, not great. Two of those guys went on to found BAD COMPANY. FUNKADELIC Maggot Brain

I know the town well and have eaten in many restaurants there, a friend worked at Oyster Point, used to buy CDs there, antique crap too at the consortium.

I do not understand.

But I don't think I ever saw a show in Red Bank.

I'm in NJ too and saw a lot of shows in the Tri-state.

I read that the "monkey" of the title was a reference to YOKO! My favorite song on that album... My second favorite would be "Cry Baby Cry" and that snippet at the end is one of the reasons. I read that JOHN said this recording was really all he and YOKO. That one still holds up for me, though I would not have expected it.

Apparently, there is some mystery about other musicians who played on that record.
