    I saw that. Owned a real piece of history, for sure. RIP, sir.

    WKRP

    THE standout bit from among many on that show. Les' horror was palpable.

    WKRP

    IN-deed. Smart, too. She was great in that part.

    I once asked a news department co-worker at the radio ranch to get a metric adjustable wrench from the station's engineer so we could finish installing the police radio under the dash of the news car. He bit; the engineer laughed about it for weeks.

    It is. That was the direction he headed after splitting from Spirit. Jay Ferguson went on to get one solo hit - Thunder Island - and also fronted Jo Jo Gunne, IIRC.

    That Twelve Dreams... Spirit album I found got me to wondering and guess what? Amazon to the rescue. Needed something to round out an order of two-outlet Tripp-Lite surge protectors for the appliances. Bought this five CD compilation - the first four "real" albums before Randy California and Jay...

    Hulk Hogan!

    Andre the Giant played Fezzik, Inigo Montoya's (Mandy Patinkin) sidekick in The Princess Bride. Hulk was nowhere near that one.

    So did Andre. And yes, I loved Andre, especially in The Princess Bride.

    Now that's cool. Double your crop output if you care to harvest without damaging the vines.

    what are you listening to?

    Thanks, Tony; there's no date on the discs or cover. Given corporate behavior regarding copyright and such, I'm always surprised when I find albums that don't have dates on them.

    That is no doubt the same edition but it has my missing insert. Thanks for adding the visual. Did you find out anything about the date it was issued? It appears to be a compilation of a number of different performances and recording sessions but all with the NBC Symphony Orchestra.

    8700 miles of it, Lee. Never realized canola fields were as gorgeous as they are in full bloom

    After this mother of a week, I figured it's time for some Larceny and Cannonball. There's a Sharpsooters album if I'm still awake later. On the plus side, the air conditioning is working again, the upright freezer survived, a new refrigerator and microwave have been blessed by the...

    Snagged a copy of Spirit's Twelve Dreams of Dr. Sardonicus at another thrift along the way. First copy I've seen in years. Tried a couple of needle drops on it - the vinyl is in much better shape than the cover, for once. Need to listen through the entire album later to see what kind of shape...

    Chuck Mangione

    Yeah, he did some interesting stuff. I think my single album of his is mixed in with some Bob James I don't listen to, either. But as you say, he was talented.

    Hulk Hogan!

    Yup. Another character from among the 80s pantheon. Proof positive all you need is a SAG/AFTRA card.

    Looks like a double lp Toscannini Greatest Hits package from who knows when. First real RCA shaded dogs I've acquired - I can hear what the fuss is about, in spite of ticks and pops. Note the price in the upper left corner. Thrift store find in Edmonton. There were maybe 15 classical albums...
