Despite catching a lot of fish on Sunday, didn't manage a legal fluke or a big enough bluefish to take home for dinner Had to settle for locally-caught swordfish. Grilled it up and served with corn (microwaved in the husk for ~3 minutes), grilled zucchini, and some heirloom tomato salad (all...

Heard this a while ago on Little Steven's Underground Garage on Sirius XM: If she had just stuck it out in the "girl-group" genre, just think how big she might have become.......;) 'Course, she probably wouldn't have gotten around to writing/recording this (my favorite of hers, and really...

It depends on a lot of things. In the OP's example, I would likely politely let them know the river is closed. Probably low risk that the dad would react aggressively. On a trip out west once, I drove an hour to a remote stream to fish for wild, native Apache trout. Very remote place, but...

Stumbled upon this at the beach on Sunday. If I were about 3000 miles west, I'd have thought it was left for @Stonedfish by one of his mermaid friends ;):

If we're doing soul, gotta have something from the Queen: and the Godfather:

Damn! I wish I knew this before I sent my savings to help secure the fortune owed to Prince Adeolu of Nigeria. From that deal, I'm not expecting anything near the BIG SUMS you're mentioning. Oh well, lesson learned for next time - don't jump into a promising investment without first checking...

Skip posted a few times that the first group he really got into was Steppenwolf. So, to honor his memory, here are a couple of their hits, and in true Skip fashion, one that's a little more obscure. RIP, Skip, you'll be missed.

They weren't as big as some of their Bay area contemporaries (the Airplane & the Dead), but I've gone down the YouTube rabbit hole and listened to their albums and really enjoyed them. Here are a couple of tracks that capture the sound of that time/place: RIP, Country Joe.

Big Orange strikes again. They kept bananas off boats and have succeeded in prolonging cold symptoms to maximize profits. Follow the money......🍊 Seriously though, hope all who are sick start feeling better soon!

RIP, Chuck Negron, lead singer, Three Dog Night. Probably my favorite of theirs.

I notice you left off fishing - intentionally, I suspect......;)

It should be obvious that this whole banana jinx was started by none other than Big Orange. Think about it - a banana is a perfect snack to bring on a boat. It's delicious, nutritious, it has its own protective wrap so you can lay it on a seat and not worry if it gets splashed, it's easy to...

Or maybe this one from that same time period? Video effects (I assume intentional, but maybe just a poor capture) are a little annoying, but neat to see their original line-up (Syd Barrett, guitar/vocal), so thought it was worth posting this version.

This thread was just screaming for this: Btw, while this particular number might not show it, watch this whole concert if you want to see this band at their peak, firing on all cylinders.

Haven't listened much to the Velvet Fog, but I heard this on Little Steven's Underground Garage, and was pleasantly surprised. Sounds like something Ray Charles might have done (it even has the second version of The Cookies singing back-up):

On Sunday, went fishing "down the Shore" (the local way of saying "at the NJ shore"), and while the fishing was slow, did manage to find the first-of-the-season ripe beach plums (Prunus maritima). Missed out the past two years, so was happy to collect a small container. These are about the...

Saw that Bobby Whitlock, co-founder with Clapton of Derek & the Dominos, passed away. Pulled out my CD and listened - what a great album! Whitlock co-wrote most of the songs, and this is my favorite. The studio version with Duane Allman as a guest guitarist is phenomenal, but this live...

I was at a brewery tonight and this came on. I admit I tend to listen mostly to stuff from the 60's and 70's (rock, blues, soul) and this was clearly new, but it sounded familiar, although I couldn't quite put my finger on what it reminded me of - I think a lot of different things influenced...

Grilled fresh-caught bluefish filets, with a cilantro-lime vinaigrette. We have to wait a few more weeks for our local farm to have their own sweet corn, so tots stood in for the starch. Lots of people think that bluefish is too "fishy", or that it takes some work to make it palatable, but all...

One of my favorites (a little lesser known) and written solely by Brian. Seems especially appropriate today. RIP....
