    Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

    Neil Young struck me with how plain "speaking" and honest he can be. Surely there are other musicians that do the same thing? But I can't think of any at the moment. That's gotta be my own short-sightedness. Or is it?

    Reasons for Abandoning Windows

    I think I remark on the fact that were I foolish (I'm allergic to weed) enough to try it after more than twenty five years of abstaining that modern pot would be like a freight train of "strongness." Even though the green bud I used to grow in my basement was quite powerful, the THC levels in up...

    Reasons for Abandoning Windows

    I guess I'm still resentful of having used the horror-sheeite from MS for so long. It looks like Win10 isn't only a continuation of the DRECK that is Windows--it's a new Summit of in your face pure evil and nastiness! It's a mystery why so many people just fold before the sub, sub, sub basement...

    Reasons for Abandoning Windows

    I wonder if the record in Seattle was set because of continuous below freezing temperatures? I'm only in one little part of the city, so I dunno about elsewhere, but three and only three inches fell here. I recall one night the day before Thanksgiving maybe twenty years ago, Capital Hill got...

    It's white out there in the woods...

    We're at roughly 250 ft MSL (250 ft above Mean Sea Level) at cloasters's abode here. We're supposed to get more low-land snow starting late Friday. Whichever, that good old Fraser River canyon up in B.C. is starting to make with that motha cold wind that it loves to do sometimes in the winter...

    Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

    I hear a goodly amount of bass from these new Bose speakers. They have an "s" shaped "viaduct" inside that handles the low frequencies very well. For instance the bass in the Pat Benatar song recently posted has tons of bass. I daren't listen to it loudly, especially at this hour. Dunno about...

    You found the right place to live! I thought that Ravenswood (Ravens something) sounded nice, but good neighbors make all the difference. Somehow I figured you must have a foot of snow, glad that you don't! The temp is mighty low here for a few days and I can't walk on ice at all. As if our...

    How many inches of white stuff collected in your AO (Area of Operations. Sorry, olde Army talk) in the last two days, Dan? We got 2 inches and it sure looked beautiful, amazingly quiet too.

    Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

    This song may actually define "Funk." One of my most favorites of all time. Maybe because it marked my "safe" return from Viet-Nam. I've posted this more than once. My bad. Apologies, I simply love this song.

    Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

    Re: "Waterfall." Shazam, Dan. The lowest "voice" I can hear in this song is the kick drum. At this hour as high volume as I can neighborly use reveals some thing happening at roughly 2:42 in the bass zone. Maybe I'm missing it, but please don't ask me to listen to this song again. There's a...

    Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

    And why not this is an old most fave: I don't have a music collection. Does this mean I'm strange? Possibly.

    Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

    Aw shucks, I don't wish to rain on your parade Dan but I dislike Ms Harris's version of "Waterfall." She barely ever disappoints yet this just doesn't float me boat. Youtube messing up is bad news. Just for the heck of it maybe clearing your browser's history might help?

    Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

    Ooh, ooh! Finally the stars reached the right place in the firmament, I found out something that's very important this evening. You know those over-sized guitars that have 4,5, or 6 strings on them--they are mostly very fat strings as well? Turns out that I can hear them extremely well now very...

    Who's heard Little Richard sing "Shake a Hand"?

    I sorta wish that "post 22305" and "post 18874" were cross indexable. Because I can't tell what song or songs you are referring to.

    Me oppressing moi? what a novel concept. Not really. I am feeling especially oppressed and my meds are still messed up, thanks for the reminder.

    Glad that you are not anti-Billy J. I hadn't listened to him for years so I re-listened and re-liked.
