Another fine example why kids fear clowns.

IMHO, Jackson Browne’s near-perfect 1976 album “The Pretender” has a speed-bump with “Linda Paloma”, a beautiful but jarring diversion to the overall flow with its Spanish-influenced sound that just sounds odd.

I’d opt for “Within You, Without You”, of which I absolutely love the lyrics but the length of the song seems tedious.

Amazing how it works!

Yep…to borrow from an old gasoline commercial, she’s got a Tiger (Jaguar) in her tank!

Sometimes I wonder if Dali influenced Walt’s vision of “Fantasia”

Is that a dude in drag?

We all wanted one of these, back in the day!

Yep - me, too...and popping wheelies!

I wouldn’t say that I discovered this band but I long-ignored a song on their 1967 debut album until 1979, while watching the closing credits on the film “Apocalypse Now”.

The album (of which I still have) had a lot of great tracks that I used on my radio show while in college…but that one cut, “The End”, was overlooked for years until I saw that movie. Now it’s one of my favorite songs by…The Doors.

VHS did more for the porn industry than anything else. Not only did sales increase, but the quality of movies did too. Unfortunately, many of the actors (and mainly female) did not enjoy the financial rewards until much later.

However, all good things must come to an end. Remember the 1980 song "Video Killed the Radio Star" by The Buggles? One could repurpose that tune to sing "Internet Killed the Video Porn". Waiting for the next leap in porn: VR.

Zero tolerance if the band puts out a crap live album. Don’t waste my time or money if that band can’t deliver something special not found in the studio. With todays road-ready recording gear available and affordable, the quality of the music should be high…and that leaves the onus on the band to give 100%. Oh, and spare me the overdubs in post-production.

James Brown’s “Live at the Apollo” set the high bar for what a live album should have…and it was recorded using only two microphones.

Topless-schmopless…I’m just focused on her incredibly beautiful derrière!

Sexually repressed’50’s youth?

1815 - the year he was born, not when the photo was taken.

Bertha Eriksdatter Rekve - she married Anfin Reque (a variation on Rekve, probably a distant cousin?) in 1891 in Chicago. Had three children born in Illinois but my research kind of ends there. At some point she & Anfin moved to Wisconsin and died there.

Thanks for asking. He was born and died in Voss. His first wife (from my lineage) died 1856. He remarried in 1860. Four children from each marriage. Only two remained in Norway, the rest moved to Illinois, Wisconsin and Minnesota. In America, the name was changed to Rockne. One of the sons from the second marriage is said to be the famous Notre Dame football coach Knute Rockne. Not sure of Erik's financial situation but farming was probably the main income source. From the looks of the family, life must have been tough, if not as cold as we're experiencing right now in the USA. I hope to travel there sometime soon - Voss and Norway look wonderful!

Erik Davidson Rekve (with his 2nd wife and children) tank around 1878 in their homeland of Voss, Hordaland, Norway. Erik was born today, December 25, 1815.

“Run For Your Life” - The Beatles…Well, I'd rather see you dead, little girl Than to be with another man .

If a sobriety test turns up negative then they should do a mental evaluation. This woman has issues needing to be addressed.

Republicans once again trying to move the goal post in order to win the game.

I was in my early teens when I convinced my dad to take to the festival. He got lost and by the time we arrived all the chili was gone and people packing up. Never did get a chance to return.

Oh man, as a pre-teen in the mid-60s all I wanted to do was run away from home to live on a California beach and surf and party with those bikini babes! Annette Funicello, where are you?

Me, too…I was 13 at that time.
