It's Friday!

Post something that makes you want to stomp your feet.

On these faces

This is a brief but very hot clip from a Cab Calloway short film:

The description labels the baritone sax player as Andrew Brown, but I am pretty sure that is Eddie Barefield on bari and clarinet.

That a great face, FOR ME TO POOP ON!!!

Is it me or do biden and Harris kinda look similar...swap their faces... 😂

Little Walter, in my opinion, is the greatest harp player to ever bend a reed. He could do things that no one else could do. He died at the age of 37 after one too many bar brawls.

Hound Dog Taylor was born with an extra finger on each hand. The story is that he cut one off in a bar one night.

Odie Payne always looks like he is afraid of pigeons.



Possibly the most iconic riff in all of blues:

Did Joe Biden ever have Bells Palsy? I could not find anything legitimate... but it certainly looks that way.

Uh, I don't hear it. at. all. Haven't heard anything there that compares to John Popper.

I want to stomp all over that bronze bust of Nathan Bedford Forrest in the Tennessee State Capitol building in Nashville.

I've been beating my brains out to add "entertainment value" to that thread, keeping it near the top of the forum's front page, and also hoping that some of the people who were part of that discussion would return to see what they missed after they were last there.

I also worked in a high-energy YouTube music video from "way back" that I think fits into the "foot stomping" category.

Get the latest (if you haven't) from "Hot Nashville."

You could always do what your family did; tie a T bone around your neck so at least the dog will play with you.

Have you considered the possibility that just maybe those who you'd like to see come back really don't care what you think about NBF and his bust. Just a thought but, it could be true.
Won't touch the "beating your brains out" thoughts but............. Well, never mind.

I caught that. I trust you are familiar with Herb's other project:



Believe it or not, I still have one of their albums that I bought when I was about 13 years old.

Absolutely. That's why I find the remarks that they contributed to that thread as nothing that I find persuasive and nothing that would keep me up at night, fretting that I was "wrong." Because I know they don't care enough to continue a conversation that they already ventured into.

Are you one of these guys that gets irritated because there's now [sarcasm] so many new threads and messages [/sarcasm] every time that they look back in that they feel overwhelmed by all the activity here? One of the "What I'm really looking for is a Pennock's screensaver" guys?

I don't go "all out" for every topic that I start. Just the occasional one, from time to time.

Just because you have nothing to say that interests people, why would you flatter yourself and pretend it's at someone else's expense?

Last I recall, several of us pointed out you have zero input of relevance.

Quite literally foot stomping music, Noa Drezner is fantastic:

Apparently, that hasn't sunk in.

Jeez! You guys are so mean!

Don't you care about other people's feewlings?

Zero input of relevance?

This is an online discussion forum. It's not a legislative body. It's not part of any level of government in the U.S. or any other country. No one can use this forum to vote.

What could anyone say on this forum in the way of politics and the like that is an "input of relevance"..?

"Zero input of relevance" is a costume that some of you were using to dress up what was really on your mind, which is that you were irritated that I used this forum to express an (another) opinion or idea that you didn't agree with. That's what was behind the "zero input of relevance" ruse that was used by some of you in that other thread. The U.S. state that I am part of (CA) or not part of (TN) was not material to the discussion.

But that's the other thread. I now relinquish control of this thread. "You" may once again control the horizontal . . . the vertical . . . change the focus to a soft blur or sharpen it to crystal clarity . . .

You can't even control yourself. You're hissing and spitting in double time. Nobody was interested, Zero Relevance.

I missed it. When was that ?

Grand Funk Railroad.
Foot Stompin' Music.

If that were just put in front of me or if I found myself listening to it without the information about it, I would not have known that it had anything to do with Herb Alpert.

If you want to have a car that would set you up to play that album as you drive--it is vinyl I presume?--well, here you go:

Lexus IS Wax Edition concept gets a retro turntable (in the glovebox)
Marc Carter for the Torque Report; March 22, 2021.
https://www.thetorquereport...s-a-retro-turntable/

I guess maybe you could rent one.

Oh wait--it's just a concept vehicle.

The appropriate car in which to play the Baja Marimba Band would obviously be a Dodge:



There are several versions and interpretations of this song, one of which (and the version I learned as a small child) refers to Pancho Villa's car.

"La cucaracha, la cucaracha no puede caminar, porque no tiene, porque la falta gasolina por quemar"



Of course if you intend to listen to Herb Alpert, you would want to ride in whatever they are using in TJ at the moment.
