Hi Frank and hi all others. Cologne is sunny and relatively warm.
(Snow in Cologne is always ugly. Climate developement looks like we'd rather have white sping instead of White Christmas.)

The streets are overcrowded and the people are NOT really friendly.
(predestrians swearing at car owners and back.)

I'm working as usual. I prefer holidays in summer.

Good morning Frank and others.
It's unseasonably warm in Paris, and rainy too. I don't think it rains right now. I work underground, but I can usually tell by the leaks
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:26am davex:

Sunny and unseasonably warm in Leipzig - and I'm not complaining.
Avatar 6:28am fxo:

thanks davex, Liepsig calling

Fred, plug the leaks, go with the flow, you might catch sumpthin'.
Avatar 6:30am fxo:

mis- spelling cities, is my forte (Leipzig, eh?)
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:35am Guido (Cologne):

Ask a German if Leipzig is spelled with a "p" or a "b" in the middle.

Nice blast of modern psychedelia this Midsummer Dream.

Leipzig is the place - which I will soon be trawling in a last pre-holiday panic attack.

Hi, Frank. Thanks for the TMBG holiday mix! For whatever reason, I could barely hear it through either of two Internet radios, even cranking it up.

Ah, my man Van Ronk! :)

(as a 1-sentence revu :-)

And the 3D show at the Holocenter went extremely well-great turnout, etc..tks for asking-

BTW any trick to installing an avatar- cant find the procedure-

@ L. Davis Movie:
Numerous NYC location shots.. it is a period-piece to some degree-
one odd continunity note- a lamp post base was clearly 1980's or later- apparent to native NYers only tho-
Avatar 7:42am kat330:

Nice watery mix in this part of the set.
Avatar 7:43am Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

- wonder how it'll compare/contrast to Todd Haynes' 'I'm Not There' impression of Dylan - which I thot was great. Coen Brothers seem basically infallible ??
Avatar 7:44am fxo:

apparently they recreated the cover of "Freewheeling". Just don't tell about the spectacular ending (JK).

Good enough for the price.

50s though to late 70s. Beatles took over after that.

Billy May and Cheech and Chong? AND the Temps? Oh man, that was something else.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:28am Your Albanian Travel Guide:

Brian in UK @ 8:14: that tune and many more, lyrics rendered phonetically and w/ sheet music in "The Cursed Mountain", in which Albania compares favourably with the 7th circle of Hell.

Anyone here ever listen to that unreleased Beatles track, 'Carnival of Light' (I think it was called)? I wasn't able to track it down.

Glad you're in your cups and enjoying holiday cheer, Brian in UK.

Jeezy: It's also expected it won't be up long - so to $40 or not to ??...
...'including some of their Beast Friends...the outdated busloady'...Honestly, I love John's harsh genius wordplay as part of the deal along w/ the peace & love - granted never had it aimed directly @ me...
Avatar 8:50am Jeezy:

Hmmm... And they say: The copyright in these sound recordings is owned by Calderstone Productions Limited (a division of Universal Music Group).
So Apple doesn't own these?
