Great to see the Horse posting again at PSF. :=)

Nice gif!  I'm doing fine, and so is Horse I guess - he's posting again, and shouting.  Sitting around watching College football, LSU vs. Florida Gators.  A real nail biter.  :03 left, and LSU needs a touchdown to win.  They are on the one yard line...

Bummer!  Florida held them on fourth down for the win.  That's the way it goes.  Later tonight I get to see the Arkansas Razorbacks vs. Mississippi State.  Hope The Razorbacks can win - they are, along with LSU and Alabama, my favorite College teams.  Alabama looks unstoppable this year.  We'll know for sure in early December.

First, it's time to go have a hamburger with baked beans for dinner.  Smells good in the kitchen.  It's been a simple Saturday.  Maybe some snow by midnight.

"I'm Happy Just To Dance With You"

You convinced me with the lyric.  This should be the first to go.

No.  When we get to three, then you vote for your favorite of the Top 3 that are left. 

I found some stuff I liked, too.  I played about 25 tracks, some of them five times.

I used to work on the fringes of the music business in the early '70s and the company I was loosely affiliated with signed String Driven Thing just before I was kicked out. Why "Circus" isn't better known is quite beyond me.

I've heard that before.  Must have been you that posted.  "Circus" Rocks.

"Four Cornered Room" is a great track, that whole album is great.

I like Sufjan.  I need to get my notes posted on his music.  Instead, I have been listening to Voxtrot all afternoon.  Working at getting some notes up on them.

B.E., what were your favorite tracks then?

Strange.  I notice after it scrolls by once, my YEAH!  YEAH! YEAH! bit starts moving out ahead.  Will it catch up again if you stare at it long enough?
Mysteries of the world in action >>>

sad day.  it's been a sad few days.  sure didn't need this.

"It Won't Be Long"  YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!                                                                                 "It Won't Be Long"  YEAH! YEAH! YEAH!"It Won't Be Long"  YEAHTill I belong to You

This record went pretty well for me and the voting.  My last vote for a Lennon track was just to keep a Paul song in the final.  "All My Loving" is not as good as "Not A Second Time" - Lennon was King of The Beatles.

My favorite song on with the beatles is:  "It Won't Be Long" - Real Power!  Rock and Roll at it's finest.

She also sang I'm So Young, There's No Other (Like My Baby), and Just Because. The reason i mention Just Because is John Lennon was a big fan of hers and he covered Just Because in the 70s at Phil's request. I assume he never heard Rosie's version which is too bad (apparently he wasnt that familiar with Price's version either). Of course, John recorded Angel Baby as well and Rosie loved it.

Lennon also loved the bizarre B-side of "Angel Baby". He kept telling Yoko that this is what it was all about:

See Jim Vincent's comment...

One comment mentions he likes the finger pops.  I was thinkin', no, that's the shape the record is in... vinyl's poppin'.  Got some negative comments - I like it as much as the a-side.

Want to add another classical composer, though he lived in modern times (sorta):

Sergei Rachmaninoff

If I were physically forced to confine my listening activities to one act, it would be the Boys, as a band and as solo artists. Other acts have repertoires that attract me----Beefheart/Magic Band, Zappa/Mothers, Fripp/King Crimson, Gary Numan, U2----but I really think nobody comes close to the sheer variety (also meaning variety in depth and quality) of that of The Beach Boys. Plenty, I would say, to get one's teeth into for the rest of one's years.

Do you agree? Or would you opt for another act? Or a composer perhaps?

Three I could not live without:

Beach Boys

Beatles

Laura Nyro

My favorite composers?  You mean instrumental tracks?
That would be Brian Wilson and John Barry.

I don't want to vote off the last McCartney song, though it is the weakest of the remaining tracks.  "Hold Me Tight" was by far his strongest track on the album.

I had hope "Don't Bother Me' would somehow make it to the finals.  Other than that, this polling went the way I see it.

Turn your head, and you won't see me as I vote for one of the classic Lennon tracks:  "Not A Second Time"

"Please Mister Postman" - stuff my mail box with off-me votes.

I'm bothered, but don't bother me, I'm busy voting for "Please, Mister Postman"

I wouldn't mind getting the Harry Nilsson soundtrack for Popeye.

"I Yam What I Yam"      https://youtu.be/eaZ0Fdt43HQ

I am a Harry fan.  I have the vinyl from 36 years ago.

"Blow Me Down"            https://youtu.be/DOQM8kL5AMs

It's a long dark driveway to be heading down, Marc.  Do you really want to go to that haunted house?  It doesn't seem safe to go with that pick.  You might find your torch go green-glow, yellow, and out...

Stay on the path with us.  Money is being left in our wake.  Money lights the way.

Missed that one.  Love "Hold Me Tight" - my favorite of the McCartney numbers on this album.  You cats are going so fast...

Looks like soon it will be just Lennon tracks...

In the face of this development I will attempt to vote off a Lennon.

I don't think I have a favorite version of this:  "Money (That's What I Want)"

Wait

I almost put this in the Beatles Survivor thread, but thought better of it.
Here will do.  I've been obsessed with "Cars and Girls" for many years.
This one's for the boys.

https://youtu.be/jEJdfDD4dVg

It's all about cars and girls.

"Roll Up, Roll Up, Roll Up for the Mystery...  We're going so fast I'm getting ahead of myself.

"Roll Over Beethoven" - This track always worked better as a live number.  I think it's on every Byrds boot I own (that's many).

I like The Beatles version.  Perfect for George's voice.  It Rocked for a while, soon it will be gone like junk mail.  Please Mister Postman, don't bother me with it.  We've got better in the wings.

We live in strange times.   It's all about colour.

How's the world treating you?
