Feel so lonely . . . Wanna die!

Plugs

Well let see, not exactly a plethora as promised, but we have something new from Fred VanDoo the next part of his Killing All That Holds You series. This one is called One-X. This is a 16 part sci fi pulp style story.

Also we got a bit of a new rant from Twisted Darkness, this one is called Just A Little Thing. Twisted in a very talented writer, albeit young.

I added some cool stuff to my Zazzle Store, Including some left leaning t-shirts like this one. Also there are a couple of rated R and PG13 t-shirt , but you will need to register with Zazzle, prove your age to see them.

The Patterson-Gimlin Big Foot Film.
Perhaps the most interesting film in crytozoologies history, and sparked some conversation at this blog. Wikipedia has a pretty even handed article on it. Now, Malach is not huge into the paranormal and such, but I do have some interest in it. I would not shock me either to find new strange creatures in unexplored parts of the world. I am not kind of balance between believer and skeptic.

But that Patterson-Gimli Film is different. I remember seeing it as a kid, it really freaked me out as it was so real (notice I did not say realistic). M.K. Davis used a PC to clean up the film and take a lot of shakiness out of it in early 2005 edit. He also did this one, which focuses on some interesting muscle movements and the head below.
Very Interesting. Now, Malach is an artist, I am an expert in visual form, proportion, human and animal anatomy, natural movement, and such. Why this really fascinates me? There is no real way I could see this being faked, even with CGI. Again, I stress real vs. realistic. This looks real. And this was shot in 1967 when faking something like this would be extremely hard (think of things like Disney Animatronics and Planet of the Apes both top of the line of this type of stuff back then). It is not like the Alien Autopsy, there is too much going on with this figure to fake it correctly. Just by the proportions alone this is not human, and this does not look like a monkey suit, nor does it act like one. Very interesting if I do say so myself. If it is a fake, kudos guys, but you should of cashed in on that when you could have.

You Are Listening Too .. .
Yer Blues, off The White Album. One of the heaviest song The Beatles did thus far in their career, and obvious influence on Led Zepplin, who would get together the year this album was released. Lennon intended the song to be a parody of British Blues musicians, but the song is sung with such force and spirit many listeners take it very literally with it extremely suicidal lyrics, and references to cosmology.


The song gets it thick deep feeling by being recorded in an Abbey Road studio not much bigger than a large closet. Ringo loved this song, as it's stripped down nature reminded him of the early stuff. This song also shows the proto hard rock direction the Beatles woulds be going in for their next couple of albums, aka the Get Back sessions. There is a quiet backing vocal in this song, that was Lennon basically singing guide vocals during instrument recording. This was mixed with his actual vocal. This backing vocal can be slightly heard in places where the main vocal in not being sung.

Malach loves this song, and for fun, play some Zep along with it.

The Mood of Red Sox Nation.
Back to Yankees Sox again, 3rd inning, 3-2 bad guys. It seems Torre is further ostracizing A-Rod also.

Why you should not buy health and beauty aids at a dollar store.

1. Go here
2 The go here
3. Now, go here
4. Then go here

That should somewhat explain it. I think the freemasons got him.

Oh, and you absolutley have to check out Malach's new MySpace song . . Prize if you guess where that one comes from.

Hey, Malach warned you about this a month ago.
Do you have your documents ready?

One night in Paris.
I wonder when the reality special will come out?

The Bee Movie.
OK, this one looks like it could be REALLY funny, or REALLY bad.

This should be interesting.
Y'know the lottery at least in this state makes a TON of money, so I would think they would cover a misprint, and even have some type of insurance for this.

Newgle
New Google coming soon.

The Mood of Red Sox Nation
Double Header won the first one, close right now in the second. If sox win they are 9.5 up in the division. Also nutty Red Sox nation figured out that if the Sox play .500 ball the rest of the season, they will win 97 games, and for the Yankees to catch them, they will have to go 30 games over .500. Mood: Feeling Confident. Also, one of the best color men in the business, Jerry Remy, mad a major flub today, and fell off a table while doing air guitar, when it gets up on YouTube, it will be here first.

9/11
It will be interesting to see what is in these reports.

Speaking of Conspiracies.
When I invent a timemachine, Dealy Plaza, Dallas Texas, November 22, 1963 is one of the very first place I go with a couple of cameras.

Tommorrow Never Knows

No Plugs Today.
Seriously none.

You Are Listening Too . . .
Tomorrow Never Knows, by The Beatles off one of their masterpiece albums Revolver. What can we say about this song, beyond amazing, and one of their best of all time.

First you need to imagine the context. You have heard most of Revolver over the past couple of weeks. This songs is the very first song recorded off that album in April of 1966. That is right 1966. Listen to this song. How modern does it sound? Beck could be doing this song today, and it would not feel outdated. This song is a precursor to industrial, trance, techno, hip hop, and fusion. It was done again in 1966. No samplers, no computers, no synthesizers, no drum machines. This song is one of the reasons The Beatles stopped touring, how do you reproduce a song like this in 1966. For comparison, what was popular in music at the time?

The Sound of Silence - Simon and Garfunkel; Paint It Black - the Stones; These Boots Are Made for Walking - Nancy Sinatra; (You're My) Soul and Inspiration - Righteous Brothers; Monday Monday - The Mamas and Papas ; It's a Man's Man's Man's World - James Brown; Strangers In the Night - Frank Sinatra; Good Vibrations - The Beach Boys; You're Gonna Miss Me - The 13th Floor Elevators; etc.

Wow, some amazing music, but nothing like this song.

The song was mainly written by Lennon, and even though being the first recorded, it is the last track on Revolver (Imagine, your thoughts in 1966 as this song closed the album). Obviously a very experimental and expressive song, it is a very good lead in to their next album, Sgt. Pepper, as this song definitely explores psychedelica.

The inspiration for the song derives from the book The Psychedelic Experience, which in and of itself is based upon the The Tibetan Book of the Dead. Leary's book goes on about the "Ego Death" experienced during a LSD trip and it's correlation with Tibetan death rites. It is reputed the song is a soundtrack of sorts for the process of the psychedlic voyage. In addition, Lennon supposed based much of the song of his own reading of The Tibetan Book of the Dead while tripping.

This is one of the only Beatles songs where the title does not appear in the song. According the Lennon at the time, he was unconfortable with the spiritual nature of the song, and gave it a throw away title based upon a Ringo Starr malapropism. The original title it has been noted was The Void.

The recording of the track, the sounds you hear are a combination of highly compressed drums, reverse and backward guitar rifts, processed vocals, and looped tape effects. This is the first Beatles experiment with tape loops. Some of the more prominent loops include the "laughing seagull" (McCartney laughing, played backward, and sped up) and the sitar loops. There is also a very weird backward guitar solo. Even more amazing is the piece was mixed on a four track recorder. 16 tape machine were also used, the condensed to get all the noise for this song.

The song was a precursor to some more experimental Beatles stuff, including Revolution 9 and Carnival of Light. It also brought helpinfluenced some of their late classics including Day In The Life and the side two of Abbey Road.

Just amazing, and still fresh 40 years later, enjoy this one buckos. This is the song, that will really expand many people thoughts about The Beatles who are only familar with their more popular stuff.

How convenient.
So tell us MC Rove, 5 million missing emails? How does that happen? Nothing is virtual world is ever truly deleted unless someone has the knowledge to do that. Oh well at least no one there has had an affair, or gotten oral sex from an intern.

Hey China.
Yeah good luck with that.
