Absolute Music 16 togheter with my new Discman....
If there's artificial intelligence, there's bound to be some artificial stupidity.
Jeremy Clarkson "806 brake horsepower..and that on that limp wrist faerie liquid the Americans call petrol, if you run it on the more explosive jungle juice we have in Europe you'd be getting 850 brake horsepower..."
My first album recieved as a gift was Bill Cosby's "Wonderfulness" with such classics as "Tonsils" "Chicken Heart" and "Go Carts."
The second was "Alvin and the Chipmonks Sing Songs From The 20th Century Fox Musical 'Doctor Dolittle'." I liked playing it at reduced speed so I could understand what they were saying.
And played the Cosby album at higher speed so he'd sound like a chipmonk!
Nillson's "The Point" was my first album, but that was given to me. First one i bought was Men at Work's "Business as Usual" (remember we're talking LP's here)
Can't remember the name of the album but the artist was Burl Ives on 33 1/3 RPM vinyl.
Also have some 78 RPM 10 inch singles by Chuck Berry, The Coasters, Fats Domino, Little Richard, T-Bone Walker etc .
For you young'uns; 78's are made of shellac
Also: if anyone doesn't know who T-Bone Walker is then your musical education is incomplete. He was the father of modern electric blues guitar. Of him B. B. King once said;
"When I hear T-Bone play his tone, it's like nobody else … I've tried my best to get that sound, especially in the late 40's and early 50's. I came pretty close but never quite got it… He was the first electric guitar player I heard on record. He made me know I just had to go out and get an electric guitar… That was the best sound I ever heard…"
