Mick's havin' a breakdown!
ETA: is '66 now officially the most-visited year of the AL era?

Dumb question: Is it "sealing" wax or "ceiling" wax? I'd have no use for either.

I believe it's the former

there's no such thing as "ceiling wax" is there?
Fee fee fie fie fo fo fum! I smell the blood of a BOS!

I first thought it was the latter, but I think its the former. As in sealing canned fruit..

I believe it's the former; there's no such thing as "ceiling wax" is there?
But there is such a thing as sealing wax? Wax would seem a lousy sealant.

TANC: South Park tonite is doing a riff on the recent slaughter-of-dolphins docu, The Cove.
-
Was it the Flipper trainer who now is very against exploiting dolphins and animals in general?
-
"YS" isn't one of my favorite Beatles (yay) songs. But hey, without it, we'd never have gotten its sequel, "Uncle Albert/Admiral Halsey."

Before the advent of lick & stick adhesives on envelopes, the only way to assure that a document had been unopened between sender and recipient was for the sender to use his seal on a blob of hot wax (and for the recipient to recognize the seal of course).
Seal in this sense was a noun long before it became a verb.

yup -- see The Cove; it's out on DVD shortly.
BOS2 Kinks!
-
Proxy of Urth for swingin' Kinks, dedicated followers of fa-shun!
-
In the off chance that this is not a 10-way tie I have to go with "Happy Jack" in the sand on the Isle on Man.
But Stones, Beatles, Who & Kinks - all in the first half - it's just a cornucopia of BOS's!
-
WOS to "Did You Ever Have to Make Up Your Mind," which just gets creepy when the sister comes into play.
-
Holy Act of Congress!
now that HAS to be BOS. Especially segueing into Nancy.

Haha, my stream's a few seconds behind yours; otherwise we'd have had an Act of Jinx.
-
BOS, Ms. Sinatra.

Holy mini-skirt, Batman!
-
Yikes, what a day for a phone call to run *way* over expected length. But what can you do?
Nice to hear Nancy and her boots walkin' all over the place. BOSwhatever.

uber-BOS3 Nancy's boots!
-
Now here's my BOS: S&G's vodka and lime!
-
We got the leaves on the ground today after a night of high wind advisories (anyone else woken up mulitple times overnight by the howling?), but not the haziness. High coastal winds for 12 hrs mean crystal blue skies. Great day for a kite!
-
Oh, and props to AL for digging out that Batman PSA--sounded like Burt Ward and the staff announcer from Batman, but not Adam West or Yvonne Craig took part in that one.
-
Wow, the clips in this set are as good as the songs--BOS Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?
-
BOS4 George & Martha!

You can't afford to waste good liquor! That clip should've come before the S&G.
-
Wow - this garage-punk hate screed is NTM. Weird and unsettling.

Likewise. I can't even guess who this might be.

HOLEE SHIT, BATMAN!!!
The Monks again, even better than in Annalisa's first 1966 set (which iirc also featured Nancy's boots).
-

AL really lurves her some obscure garage nuggets. NTM too.
-
wow, whatever this is, BOSFRA. This is NTM and probably many here?

There's a docu about the Monks (the title escapes me) that has been showing up on cable recently.
-
Oh hell, ten-way tie! AL really shines in the '60s.
-
Sorry I missed the first five or six, always great to hear the Kinks.
BTW, I'll be seeing Ray Davies when he comes to the Warfield Nov 12.!

I have this CD, I'll have to make some copies. Truly remarkable breakthrough stuff. A full decade ahead of its time. See below, (courtesy of Richie Unterberger at Allmusic.com):
One of the strangest stories in rock history, the Monks were formed in the early '60s by American G.I.s stationed in Germany. After their discharge, the group stayed on in Germany as the Torquays, a fairly standard beat band. After changing their name to the Monks in the mid-'60s, they also changed their music, attitude, and appearance radically. Gone were standard oldie covers, replaced by furious, minimalist original material that anticipated the blunt, harsh commentary of the punk era. Their insistent rhythms recalled martial beats and polkas as much as garage rock, and the weirdness quotient was heightened by electric banjo, berserk organ runs, and occasional bursts of feedback guitar. To prove that they meant business, the Monks shaved the top of their heads and performed their songs — crude diatribes about the Vietnam war, dehumanized society, and love/hate affairs with girls — in actual monks' clothing.
This was pretty strong stuff for 1966 Germany, and their shocking repertoire and attire were received with more confusion than hostility or warm praise. Well known in Germany as a live act, their sole album and several singles didn't take off in a big way and were never released in the U.S., it was rumored, because the lyrical content was deemed too shocking. They disbanded in confusion around 1967, but their album — one of the most oddball constructions in all of rock — gained a cult following among collectors, and has ironically made them much more popular and influential on an international level than they were during their lifetime. Bassist Eddie Shaw's 1994 autobiography, Black Monk Time, is a fascinating narrative of the Monks' stranger-than-fiction story.

and TANC: AL confirms that fact!

I'd never heard "Over, Under, Sideways, Down" either. Glad I got to be around for this set in real time!

this is a more astonishing admission than having never seen The Godfather, at least for you Gaz.

BT = Dylan, "Stucki Inside of Mobile with the Memphis Blues Again"
a song which for some reason got stuck inside my head most of the weekend, and now I can foresee it will be stuck inside my head again all day.
