This blog will showcase some of the funny and bizarre stuff I've found. (and the occasional just plain cool ones) It also highlights the fashions of the time. Hope you get a kick out of them!

How did that happen? :p </p><p style="text-align: center;">Anyway, let's start off 2021 with this gem.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4xai6KgOPEI/X_Cl1OmCLOI/AAAAAAAAFiM/Fh_V5ymfM0EI21_DnPL2w1-dz5Wx6axDQCLcBGAsYHQ/s807/HPIM6659.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="799" data-original-width="807" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-4xai6KgOPEI/X_Cl1OmCLOI/AAAAAAAAFiM/Fh_V5ymfM0EI21_DnPL2w1-dz5Wx6axDQCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/HPIM6659.JPG" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;">Honestly, I had wanted to find something a little more wacky for this post, but this really is a gem to me, as I'm pretty sure this is just the record version of the cassette we'd listen to on family trips. It was back before we had a VCR, so listening to movies was a good option. Used to record the Star Wars movies on a tape recorder and listen to them afterwards as well.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-K85SV-W5G2I/X_CmdkFV01I/AAAAAAAAFiU/nUmH23JKZ2UmWwofJMLtwzIYBGc5IDktACLcBGAsYHQ/s793/HPIM6660.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="793" data-original-width="782" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-K85SV-W5G2I/X_CmdkFV01I/AAAAAAAAFiU/nUmH23JKZ2UmWwofJMLtwzIYBGc5IDktACLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/HPIM6660.JPG" /></a></div><p style="text-align: center;">Yep, it's basically a condensed recap of the movie. Makes me wonder if I still have the old cassette somewhere. If I ever find it, I'll add a picture.</p><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p>Ripplinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07107609489389828757noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3746910314254667626.post-29080862358427953272020-11-14T09:50:00.001-05:002020-11-14T09:50:18.071-05:00Andre's eye-catcher<p style="text-align: center;"> Not too much to say other than this extreme close-up would certainly stand out in a crowd.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YIt-xOM7nw4/X6_uRV1pKFI/AAAAAAAAFhk/7QhYTl8e3LcusphJotZyYWzfkkO382tXQCLcBGAsYHQ/s798/HPIM6288.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="791" data-original-width="798" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-YIt-xOM7nw4/X6_uRV1pKFI/AAAAAAAAFhk/7QhYTl8e3LcusphJotZyYWzfkkO382tXQCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/HPIM6288.JPG" /></a></div><br /><p style="text-align: center;"><br /></p>Ripplinhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/07107609489389828757noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3746910314254667626.post-78920918829949984232020-10-07T15:18:00.002-04:002020-10-07T15:18:23.560-04:00Jane Fonda's biggest claim to fame?<p style="text-align: center;"> Jane Fonda is known for many things; acting, charity work, having been married to Ted Turner, etc...but to many, this is her most famous work.</p><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ELmYoPT8QZo/X34R2jK_rXI/AAAAAAAAFgM/neBuQn7NiJcf25aRRxCXS828GJfRIHffwCLcBGAsYHQ/s780/HPIM8025.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="780" data-original-width="780" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ELmYoPT8QZo/X34R2jK_rXI/AAAAAAAAFgM/neBuQn7NiJcf25aRRxCXS828GJfRIHffwCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/HPIM8025.JPG" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">Seriously, this was mega-huge!</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-V2K2wqJ5eFk/X34SQauJdzI/AAAAAAAAFgc/O6R4Wb74UZ4ZtpAGrVLOO1tUis9gjIVIQCLcBGAsYHQ/s799/HPIM8028.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" data-original-height="795" data-original-width="799" src="https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-V2K2wqJ5eFk/X34SQauJdzI/AAAAAAAAFgc/O6R4Wb74UZ4ZtpAGrVLOO1tUis9gjIVIQCLcBGAsYHQ/s16000/HPIM8028.JPG" /></a></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">I see one of the songs is "Megatron Man" by Patrick Cowley.

Obviously an import. Lots of older German and Polish people living around here and I see stuff like this all the time.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway, this is my first post using the new version of Blogger and...yeah, not liking it. Especially annoying for a picture-heavy blog, because the quality of the picture has most definitely dropped from the original, much like at Facebook, which also compresses or something. Plus, the options that used to pop up after posting a picture have changed too. You used to be able to select 'original size' before, but now, it's just 'increase' or 'decrease.' Seems like it doesn't get it right no matter what you do. :/</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Oh, and the new label system is super annoying and slow too.<br />
<br />
P.S. I reverted back to the "Legacy" version and re-upped the pictures, which look the way they're supposed to now.</div>

Simple, catchy cover for a story I...don't know. :p Never did have any Dr. Seuss books. My mother decided to get me some other series, while every other kid had Seuss. Took me a while to think of it, but the series we had was <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sweet_Pickles" target="_blank"><span style="color: orange;">Sweet Pickles</span></a>.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Anyway, an interesting way to fill the record by having Barrymore on the other side. I should dig it out to hear his iconic voice. :)</div>

Pretty cool gatefold cover. I usually just do the front cover half by itself, but I guess I decided to just open it this time, as it's the only cover photo I have. Notice it says Ronny Howard rather than Ron. ;)</div>

Of course, it's a gatefold inside as well, but just writing and info on the right.</div>

As always, I don't expect these regional—and especially French Canadian—albums to draw much attention compared to most, but I always hope someone will find it and maybe have a story or memory about the performer. :)</div>

Hot on the proverbial heels of the last post, here's the last of the Sylvia albums I have.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

I know a Sylvia. She doesn't look like that.</div>

Not much thought put into this. 'Swivel to your left and look to your right.' Oh well, still nice. ;)</div>

I'm guessing the fan club of your favorite background voice is no longer operational. How cool would it be if it <i>is</i>, though? :)</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Let's conclude our Sylvia trilogy by looking at her biggest hit, the pop/country crossover (back when that was acceptable) "Nobody", which opens this album...</div>

This post's title is in reference to the first Sylvia album I posted. (and notice in the credits here, she is still listed only as a "background voice") </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
I may have a third Sylvia album, so stay tuned.</div>

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's a little info from their Wiki article: "Their second album <i>Si on avait besoin d'une cinquième saison</i>, better known as <i>Les Cinq saisons</i>, was an immediate success. This concept album included five songs, each one representing a season with the last song being a long instrumental representing a fifth and imaginary season. For this album, the band recruited two new members, Pierre Daigneault, playing the flutes, sax, and clarinets and Serge Locat, handling the piano and synthesizer. The group also invited two guests to play on the sessions: Judi Richards, who handles the vocalizations on the instrumental "Histoires sans paroles" and Marie Bernard performing the theremin-like sounds of the Martenot waves. In 2015, <i>Rolling Stone</i> magazine listed this album at number 36 of the best 50 progressive rock album and declared it the best progressive folk album."</div>

I didn't realize, but she was married to Alan Thicke for a long time, himself quite the songmaker. Her mother was also a singer and her father played trumpet for Tommy Dorsey. Not only has she had a long, successful singing career, but she is an actress as well.</div>
<div style="text-align: center;">

<div style="text-align: center;">
Here's her biggest hit, and the opener to this album, "Friends & Lovers", a duet with Carl Anderson...</div>

The first LP is on the left, the second is on the right, and the middle is the bonus 12" single, as noted on the front cover. Possibly the only album I have with 3 sleeves inside.</div>

Jeff Goldblum's in it? Maybe it's not so bad. But, T.G.I.F. or not, disco still S.U.C.K.S.*</div>
