Obviously I've been listening to a lot of Michael Jackson, with the inevitable side effect of Osmonds. Latest great listen is Let Freedom Sing!, the Time/Life musical history of the Civil Rights movement.

I got some new tattoos recently. I already had three older ones and I got five more in the last six months. I am designing my ninth one, it is to be 451 in black triangular block numerals on my left hand with flames crawling up my arm. =) note; my knuckles say rock and roll, B.O.C. logo on my right hand, Pink Floyd hammers on left forearm, Dead Kennedy's on my right. Also of note is my Somnething Wicked poster visible in background. I will post that when I get it finished.

Hey Rock, the Bouchard boys were from my hometown!
Ever hear of Ed Wool or Ronnie Dio? These guys played all the clubs along the river for many summers before making it to the big stage. Great R&R music.

(I was also able to brag that my "Green"town gave birth to the original Woolworth's 5&10c store.)

That's awesome fjp! On all accounts. =)

Hey, Rocky, better watch the spelling on those tats!
They're fairly permanent, you know.

Goodbye Yellow Brick Road, Double LP Vinyl by Elton John. Picked this one up yesterday at a garage sale, for the bargain price of 50 cents, while on my daily walk. Seems to be more and more garage sales these days.

Oh, yes! When popular music was music and lyrics made sense!

I always like to put on my favorite Thanksgiving song: Alice's Restaurant by Arlo Guthrie.
