23 May 2008--it's...1971
« on: May 23, 2008, 09:52:53 AM »
suppose we're all guessing early 70's, and here's a little pre-set CCR "Bad Moon Rising" to get me in the mood.

ETA:  This always make me think of Chris Berman's best SportsCenter off-the-cuff nickname, for one time NFL receiver Andre 'Bad Moon' Rison.  Rison liked it so much that he got it tattoed on his body, and that was before Lisa 'Left-Eye' Lopes burned down his house.

And so it comes to pass. My first thought was "George?" followed quickly by "Ringo?" And it turns out I was right on both counts (I believe George plays guitar on IDCE).

Mondegreens come easy for Ringo:

"I don't ask for much, I only want a crust"

"this rubber vine keeps growin' all the time"

(Hey, they made sense to me when I was 15)

Have you ever heard George's demo version of "It Don't Come Easy"?  It's as good as Ringo's release.  I'll email it to you if the file size isn't an issue.

I've got 2 sets in the Db that kick of by Going Mobile, and the other one has Macca, his uncle & the admiral in the #2 slot.

Urth, this is a fantastic set form late '06, and it's not archived.

Hint Hint (unless you already packed up all your gear).

I still hear the latter as "book of lies" rather than "book of lines," which contradicts his message but makes it a little more interesting for me.

Urth, are you moving this weekend?  Wishing you as little stress as possible in the process.

wow, nifty segue from all those premature predictions of the end of fighting in Vietnam into "One Of These Days".
