The Ventures - The 2,000 Pound Bee Part 1 and Part 2

Wow, what a wonderful 3 days off. I spent Saturday looking through 7000 45's and brought home a nice 170. Spent yesterday doing yard work and today organized the record room as I grilled some ribs all day. Listened to a ton of albums while organizing...Frank Zappa, Steely Dan, 2 Cream albums, Traffic, Howard Tate, The Doors, The Motors, The Kinks, 20/20, Sir Douglas Quintet, Now for a little fuzz upload from the Ventures (Pt. 1 and 2) and then I'm going to tear into the ribs. May even have 1 more beer to go along with them

Doors - Runnin Blue

Ray Manzarek died today. I always liked him and recently watched several documentaries and concerts on Netflix on the Doors and found Ray's storytelling compelling. This is a quick post and
tribute

Charles Wolcott - Leatherjacket Cowboy

I don't know what it is lately but the spam to my blog has been absolutely horrible. I have had to change my settings so I hope that does not detract from my readers posting comments. I love to receive comments but weeding through the stupid a** spam has been RIDICULOUS.
My friends Ray and Jim gave me some cool albums yesterday, some Miles Davis on Prestige, Coltrane on Impulse, Cream on Atco. So I was trying to come up with something special for this post as it is post 700 and was in a jazzy mood. Yeah, this probably isn't your cup of tea.

Neal Ford And The Fanatics - Wait For Me

Graduation was wonderful yesterday and it is official- I am out of school. Of course I will still have some studying to do for the 2 licensure tests I will take but no more class. It seems like my life has had the motto for the past 3 years of "Wait For Me"

Ten Years After - I'd Love To Change The World

Tomorrow's the big day. Went to the Social Work celebration reception tonight and had a good time. My co-workers at both my jobs (full time and part time) threw me little surprise parties and I thank you all. Here is my favorite Ten Years After...we Social Workers believe we can change the world

 

The Thoughts - All Night Stand

I had the chance to copy some 45's to the computer today. This fantastic Ray Davies song was a lucky pickup within the past 6 months. Would have loved to have heard a polished Kinks version of this!
