[JohnnyRingo]

The Electras on CD....I listened to the sample montage aaaand errrr...although I uhhh love JK, I think I'll wait for the freebie on Kazaa.

To be fair...It was a bit before even MY time.

The site making the offer IS a pretty good Kerry site, though...lotsa pix and a flattering bio:

1. I just ordered it

I figure, with all of the obscure music this house has in its basement, the CD featuring our next president belongs here. :hi:

[JohnnyRingo]

2. Hahaha...yeah, I have a "vinyl orphanage" in my attic.

By the way, did you see the promo pic ?
It looks like the local church may be missing it's organ.

4. I've been interested in them for a long time

Erik Lindgren of Arf! Arf! in Boston released some of this stuff a few years back, I believe.

3. oh man

As bad as it might be I think I'm just gonna have to get one.

5. thanks that is a really cool way of seeing more about kerry

kerry....is like an introvert....who has a very deep and broad scoop of character...who quietly goes about life....he is active in sports and just out there.....just not boisterious....he is truly a fascinating person.....

6. Top Notch website! Great! Everyone should check it out...

Compare this to Bush's main hobby interests- "drank'in beer & clearing bresh."

[Reverend_Smitty]

7. to be fair...

* doesn't drink anymore...I guess his hobbies now consist of clearin' brush

[physioex]

9. You know this how?? EOM

[Dr Fate]

11. Well, he "clears bresh" on TV at the ranch he bought in 1999...

...and everyone knows about his love for the suds...

Any other hobbies you can think of, besides wrecking bicycles & Segways?

[Reverend_Smitty]

12. Sending other people's children to die...

N/t

[physioex]

13. I don't care bout his hobbies..

But you mentioned Shrub doesn't drink anymore. But that may or may not be true. Remember him choking on a pretzel, that typically happens when you are intoxicated. I would argue at best he is a dry drunk and there is a possiblity of a relapse....

[Dr Fate]

16. All I really said was that his MIND was on it...

;)

[physioex]

17. Ok...no problem...

:smoke:

[Dr Fate]

10. Yeah- but his mind is ALWAYS on that cold, cold bottle of Lone Star

And he does pronounce it "bresh"

8. That's not too bad for '61!

I haven't heard the vocals yet, though. :scared:

14. Sounds like the kind of music they always used on the

soundtracks in early sixties TV shows when they were showing the young people dancing and trying to be cool. Or in the beach party movies of the time.

15. It had a really

rough, garage sound to it. Kind of a surf sound too. But I like that kind of crude music. :hippie: Rock isn't supposed to be pretty. My hubby and I copied the band picture off the website and had Kerry autograph it at a fundraiser. It's now framed and hangs prominently in our den! By the way, if you can only listen to one, You Can't Sit Down really highlights Kerry's bass.
