There is new 8 1/2 by Eleven up. This one is number 543 and I think Lucas is on the LSD as it is about Neon Butterflies. Also, the Wand of Wonder has gone a bit nuts with funny and weirdness over the past couple of days.
Also check out one Malach's internet buds psuedo journalistic website about his Philadelphia Phillies team from his Playstation 2 game MLB 07 The Show. Nova Fan is a bucko, and in his late teens. Some well written stuff there, and interesting moves.
Malach also is a huge Beach Boys fan (who rock, Brian Wilson is a fuggin' genius) playing at his MySpace. Also I heard a version of Brian Wilson by the Bare Naked Ladies, sung by Brian Wilson. A bit surreal
Taunton State Hospital.
So, Malach spent half the day doing a presentation and attending a resource fair at TSH. It was fun interacting with some of the populace still there. I wanted to explore some of the abandoned buildings, but I did not have much time. In MA, asylums fell out of favor in the 70's and 80's, and those here now, are those that really can't operate outside, but are not say mass muderers and have hope for release.

Come Together off The Beatles Album, Abbey Road. Even though Abbey Road was released before Let It Be, it was the last album to be recorded by The Beatles before their break up. It is considered one of their most tightly constructed albums, even though by this point they were hardly a conhesive band.
After the disaster of the Get Back/Let It Be recordings, McCartney suggested to George Martin that they get back together and create an album just like in the old days, before the band began to disintegrate with The White Album. The Beatles, who at this time all agreed this would probably be their last recording together, agreed to "go out on a high note". The two album sides had highly different characters with side one a collection of single tracks, and side two contains essentially a 16 minutes medley of interconnected short songs, both finshed and unfinished, mainly from the White Album and Let It Be recording sessions. For example many people are used to hearing Golden Slumbers and Carry Weight played together, but they are actually seperate songs.
Why? Many cite Lennon having little involvement on this album, and McCartney wanting to tie a few things up with these remaining Lennon and McCartney shorts. Lennon had actually left the Beatles before finishing up Abbey Road.
This was also the only album recorded by The Beatles on an 8 track recorder one of the reasons for the overall better sound of this album to previous ones. It was also the only one recorded on a solid state soundboard giving it a much rawer sound. It made entensive use of a recent technology, the Moog Synthesizer.
Abbey Road is also famous for it's album art, perhaps the most famous and oft parodied album cover of all time, and a central feature of the Paul is Dead urban legends (more on that later).
Come Together is the opening track on the album and a straight out 70's rocker before 1970. It was written by Lennon, and began with an attempt at writing a theme for Timothy Leary's CA gubenatorial campaign (vs. of all people Ronald Reagan). Of course Leary got arrested for drug possession and sent to prison (yeah, they called him Tricky Dick for a reason). It was transformed into a track that digs at both McCartney and Harrison and also references Yoko and Bagism.
Lennon played rythmn guitar and and sang lead vocal for the track. The exclamation you hear of "Shoot" during the open bassline is actually "Shoot me"; the me is drowned out by a handclap. McCartney played bass and electric piano, Harrison lead guitar, and Ringo all the percussion.
Aerosmith did a extremely popular cover of the song in the late 70's, and many people recognize that version sometime more often than the Beatles original. It would be remembered as Aerosmith's last top 40 hit until the late 80's a decade later.

Revolution 1 off The White Album. Perhaps not the version that is most famous which was a beside to the Hey Jude single. There are basically three versions of Revolution, the raucous electric version most everyone had heard, this more acoustic orchestric version, and a strange 8 minute avant garde sound collage from The White Album called Revolution 9 (which I will play for you later). I will treat Revolution and Revolution 1 as the same songs in this blog entry.
Revolution was first to be released and was a product session of The White Album. It features distorted guitars, and a electric piano solo. It is one of The Beatles hardest and agressive tracks beginning with and overdrawn guitar wail, a compressed drum beat and that signature wail (which was recorded by Lennon, but live, McCartney always did it as Lennon could never recover after the scream to start the vocals on time.
Revolution 1 is basically the same song, only done in a different style, with much less distortion and a more acoustic sound. Lennon recorded the entire vocal scheme while lying down in experiment in vocal scheming. This is actually the original version of the song, but the rest of the band wanted a faster heavier version for the single to back up Hey Jude. Lennon irritated decided to amp up the loud. Lennon claims the song was inspired by 1968 French uprisings.

So they are on their first bad series, losing 5 of 6. Last night, I am surprised they even competed with Papelbon, and Okajima unavailable, Lowell, Crisp, Varitek out of the lineup. Lost 5 - 4 in 11 I think. Tonight should be different. Mood: Were still 10 games up.
Ok.

There is a new Sunshine, number 40, it is up and just loaded about hour ago. Also, Malach has some plugs that helps him make some money and stay in business. I will diligently be working on more products in the coming weeks. First, a big request and finally up. Perhaps my most popular image on this website, and one I see all over the internet as people's backgrounds on MySpace, FaceBook, MSN Space, and such. All Apologies, the Poster. As an added bonus, I am more than willing to sign them if you buy one, email me for details.
Also, for you KMP Softball groupies, I have started making KMP Fan Gear, and since the lot of you are drunks, debuting today is the KMP Beer Stein. I will be making some baby dolls, and other clothing this week. I am also working on a Fat Bug/JesusMan! mixed t-shirt. And it also seems I got my first Zazzle fan . . .
Oh, and if you want to see the worst YouTube video ever made? Go here. Yes, it is FRIGHTENINGLY bad.
The Mood of Red Sox Nation.
So far 2 from Cleveland, who have the second best record in the AL. Both games played without David Ortiz who has sore hamstrings, and Papelbon was not available to close today's game. And I also noticed the Yankees are sharing the AL East Cellar with the Devil Rays at 14.5 back. Mood: Kinda of Scared.
Barak.
I agree with this Barak. It has the Malach seal of approval.
Ahh Britney.
