Good night, fairwell, auf wiedersehen, adieu
To ye, and ye, and ye and ye..
and to the Lordess as well.
why thank you, osso.
oh! that one! yes, alright. goodnight to her too (grumble grumble).
Lordotic would prolly be me, unless Ellpus and Bro wreck themselves in the efforts. Well, let's hope not.
Ah, past the banter, 'tis a gorgeous place worth the efforts.

But then again, your musical tastes are questionable.
I went to a BST concert just last night (Saturday).
(trying to remember if I like anything by BST...
well, no, not in particular, thinking uber dramatic sans avail, but I might be wrong, I might have liked the first one. (no mind, y'know, for what the first hit was).
Beginning to remember I hated it.
Sometimes in Winter
Go Down Gambling
God Bless the Child
Lucretia MacEvil
Spinning Wheel
And When I Die
You've Made Me So Very Happy
I Love You More Than You'll Ever Know
All great. Hard to believe you hate all BST songs.
I d'na mind the lyrics, must have been the sounds.
Well, before I just go condemning, I suppose I should check them out. My increasing memory is that I hated the main thing I tend to remember from them. Plus that I heard it a thousand times after that.
(Which brings up that I went into rock and roll tharn on a house remodel, with greatest hits blaring for four months. I really haven't gotten back, even now, my first innocent love of it all.)
Oh, I'm sure I hated 'You made me so very happy'. Absolute.
Well, hey, different strokes for...
I suspect the musicologically inclined could figure out our difference, Tico. You do probably like the more dramatic, explicative phrasing...
which is, for whatever reason, so not me.
Bet you like ballads...
Well, I do too, but rarely.
I'm a Marvin fan, despite myself, but I don't think that is what Ellpus was after, I think he was after rock and roll explicated.
Too bad we can't talk with him more.
Maybe we should start several threads, as the music of the time forked in several ways.
Ah ha, is the Lord Ellpus' son listening here, does he have an opinon? (waving....)
Is lordE's son a lurker?
Ummmm, ZZ Top had some albums out in the early 70s, but I don't know them well. They have a great sense of humor (always have) and a sense of their place in the world (their first album was called ZZ Top's First Album).
OK, good, Tico, we are clearly disagreeing here. I also hated And When I Die.
Something too clearly dramatic, for me. To figure that out could be a thicket. I'm not much of a theater fan, and I bet that's connected. I'm beginning to catch on to opera arias, but made fun of my boss for playing them for years.
Am I alone in thinking Ellpus was talking about hard rock?
If he wasn't, then maybe we do need to do some subdiving, re threads.
Tangent - I lived with a zztop canoe once.....
I think it's ok, Osso..... As long as we stay within his time frame.
What is a zztop canoe?
This guy was and is an avid collector. Baseball cards, bubble gum in glass housing, old pinball machines, lines of shaving cream cans, beer bottles, well, hey, it was a four bedroom house and I stayed in a small portion of it.
I like him, he has fun in life, and he was kind to me in renting me the place.
In the back yard, just in front of the boat house/garage was - and I must say I didn't care enough to photo it, or maybe I did but don't remember - was a real canoe, red, with Big ZZ top letters on it. I have no idea or care why.

Ehm, I dunno from what, if from any movie.. just a classic disco hit by Divine, an old favourite in gay clubs.
