Actually, was Ligeti Swiss?

That'd be spooky.

Not too far off though.

Am I beginning to enjoy this? hmm

Track 8 - The Healing Festival.

Mad sax.

Now it's gone all Baron Samedi in the jungles of San Monique.

But without Roger Moore wearing a kind of beige, polyester outfit and standing on the edge of the clearing where the wild Vaudou revelry is taking place looking faintly condescending and annoyed.

Last track - Down by the Borderline.

Is this a Coasters cover?

Or Little Feat?

ButtonZ started a chicken thread earlier.

Coincidence, or something altogether more sinister? scared

by **The Call of the Wendigo** Mon Aug 17, 2020 9:36 pm

It is over.

That was misconceived nonsense.

On the other hand, apart from the last track, it didn't bore me.

Now to look back at the thread and see what everybody else made of it. Excited

I shall give it 3 stars.

Well, my oh my.

Crikey.

What a load of amazing, embarrassing rubbish.

I've always hated his voice, but it kinda worked on that hideous confection of Zuppa di Trippa/Knickerbocker Glory with a sparkler in way that nothing else ever has before or since.

Still, it worked on its own terms.

Terms and conditions long long forgotten.

Probably not legal anymore.

Awful.

But a special kid of awful.

by Nightjar Mon Aug 17, 2020 9:58 pm

Well, ButtonZ wasn't here, but it was his idea.

Yes, it was.

Ohh yes it was.

S'alright, It's no Lorca, or that one about that Strong Sad, although why he did an album about an obscure character in a Flash Web comic I don't know. (that was a joke on the similarity of the names of the Tim Buckley album Happy Sad, and the character Strong Sad ).

★★★

Actually no, I've just remembered how over rated his son is, in a completely irrational way, I'll go ★★★★.
