Are there any recording artists you just can’t listen too?

...I have no clue why line 5 is spaced as it does....🤷‍♂️🙄

(I heard that....NO, I was not exhaling into the keyboard OR the ’puter itself....)

I do and am allowed to perhaps daydream, although obviously very early AM here,  that glasses. ashes. and nobody wants to know What got applied to YOUR ’peripherals’ and transferred to mouse ’n keys....

Didn't click it...don't really want nor need to know....

Already have one of those around here....it's the rest attached to the cheeks that drives to distract in ways you'd preferred not to indulge in or with.....

Sorry, l just don’t buy it

heyyyy……….30,001 views.  Yippee Ki-Yay

I've been hitting the refresh button multiple times daily since I learned you crave the endorphin rush. You're welcome.

Ha ha!  That's funny.  You get an endorphin rush off of this, @mylogic ?

The “moderator” must have considered some line was crossed…. The Alamo William B Travis style, in the sand.

Hey Santa Anna we’re killing your soldiers below

That men wherever they go will remember the Alamo

Live with it. I called you out

Live with it. I called you out

Was that just added on edit @mylogic ?  Would you care to elaborate?

The last word is for the moderators to decide….music music 🎶  “It's the way it is” 👉 exit door

The last word is for the moderators to decide….music music 🎶  “It’s the way it is” 👉 exit door

That’s pretty much a full of crap post.

Yes l love it, but it’s the way it is

Yes l love it, but it’s the way it is

Full of crap?  

Yes l love it, it’s the way it is….. and is true. The moderators have the last word in what is right or wrong. Get it? Get back on the “Wild Bunch” wagon

This thread is done. 

“You know not the way of this nation…… such things do not happen here!”

Anyone know that scripted line? Maybe never said, but such great cinema spectacle. Much like what’s on here….LOL

Anyway getting back to the Alamo, and The Wild Bunch. Anyone like the music from those two films?
 

l think the Alamo LP was typical “Americana” written by a Russian (how good is that?)  but those dialogue lines inserted by John Wayne… Republic and his love of said country l just can’t listen to, and uttered by a hypocritical draft dodger.

edit… if this thread gets taken down so be it…. It’s been a hell of a ride and entertaining (documented) for all the “neutrals” out there.
 

@immatthewj 

Yes, sling your hook and don't let the door hit you on the way out!

I am still trying to get to the bottom of it being implied that the post I made about getting an a'gon email informing me of a deleted post was "hot air"

and then you reading the email I pasted and referring to the "moderators" (the quotation marks were yours),

and then you basically saying that you were "calling [me] out."

That's all.

And by the way, in the past, I have self-deleted threads because after 30 minutes one cannot perform an edit, so in lieu of an edit I sometimes self-delete and retype the way I intended to, but in case you are not aware of this fact, the "moderators" do not send out emails for self deletes.

@immatthewj  Don’t get paranoid…. It’s quite hot in England lately…Global warming and all that

@lordmelton l am so sorry you told Matt to sling his hook…. He will probably now be thinking that you…. ARE ME

But your response was impeccably timed. I couldn’t have done better myself.

Anyone else want to talk about “music” now?

Yes Matt you take down that email that you “pasted”

You have been well and truly pasted. I think Mr. Snowflake gave you a good frosting to take away the hot air

 Don’t get paranoid…. It’s quite hot in England lately…Global warming and all that

That’s just more crap.  I type a post about getting an email from a’gon admin and  you reply 

I just opened a window, and just “hot air” blew in…. no snowflakes

 

Sorry, l just don’t buy it

and you put "hot air" in quotation marks and now you say that you were referring to global warming?  That’s crap.  So if you are going to "call me out"--then call me out and  don’t default to crap posts.

He will probably now be thinking that you…. ARE ME

Oh, there is more than one sock account here at any given time, @mylogic , but I wasn’t thinking of you as such, but if I was, I’d spell it out for you.  As in the texas-jerry exchanges.

@immatthewj + 1

Yes Matt you take down that email that you “pasted”

I will be happy to paste a bunch more, including the one I just took down, mylogic, if that’s what you want.  But it seems to offend "somebody" when I do that, as they usually get deleted in relatively short order.  I started keeping them versus deleting them a while back ago, and I guess I must be telling you something that you don’t already know when I explain that a’gon doesn’t send emails out for self deletes.

You have been well and truly pasted. I think Mr. Snowflake gave you a good frosting to take away the hot air

Your cute metaphors are so witty, mylogic; I assume this is you "calling me out"?

@immatthewj 

To clarify my first “hot air” post

Look at the order of posts. It was meant for the @unclewilbur paste you inserted. You posted your copy of the email AFTER my reply. (Now deleted) So that “hot air” was not in reply to your copy post of the Audiogon email. The said “hot air” was for old Wilber’s claim made without any sound foundation.

The next “hot air” blamed on global warming and was me just being ironic, and in no way linked to what you thought.

can someone catch me up? It's a lot....

@gano 

“Catch me up”

l’m just trying to catch up with your new discussion. “Gateway product” How weird.

This one is discombobulating into an old west tumble weed that has no home. Complexly off topic

@mylogic I guess communication with this moderation is very complex. It's like running a marathon with a monkey (gorilla?) on your back 

@gano Monkey business

Yes it is like that. I’m going to let this one go before the monkey dies on me. First and last discussion.

The monkey of this thread….. l don’t want any further future misunderstandings or malarkey. You can spend so much time on here. Another day with nothing done… Ha Ha…. But it is rather hot today to cut the grass. I will watch it grow instead.

Good luck with your discussion

@mylogic I don't need luck, I just need all those cool stories :) 

Who knew Edith Piaf is at the center of such controversy

@simao 

Thank you for getting this discussion back on topic.

Only time will tell?????

Have you heard the “Little Sparrow” ?

Moderation on audiogon is very good and wise...

By the way i cannot even remember any artist name i cannot stand because i put them off on the spot and dont listen radio...

Let's get the thread back on track and slag off Bob Geldolf an opportunistic untalented gravy train rider.

With the exception of Autumn!, Black Kray, and a few Lil Yachty tunes, I can't stand most trap or drill music. Not because the vocals which can be quite good, but because of that incessant over the top annoying hi-hat, the Hallmark of the genre I realize. There is something about that dit-dit-dit-dit that drives the drummer in me absolutely batshit. At least those artists I mentioned earlier have a lot of Melody and musicality in their tunes that softens that hi hat effect. And yes, I know where the drill hi hat effect originated in why but that doesn't swing my opinion at all.

...and I'm just happy that @immatthewj with 

the texas-jerry exchanges.

recognizes the difference. ;)  Most likely agree one of me is quite enough of....although spouse 'n self spent a fat decade in Houston,

@gano ....Wait for the Netflix version.....working title pending... ;)

...Ah, c'mon @lordmelton ....pray tell, what do your really think....😏 *L*

You are full of crap, @mylogic .  "Live with it."

@asvjerry Back on topic and JLP.

l notice you collected Jean-Luc Ponty albums from an old post l stumbled across.

l wonder if you are aware of what could be a rare Ponty performance?
 

l was a projectionist in my student years which was a hobby job. The free tickets alone l would have been quite happy with. Sometimes squeezing in 6 free films a week between the cinemas. I have a bit of a photographic memory for obscure info and showed the film “Sitting Target” when first released.

When the film “hit the screen” projectionists always “focused up” on the “main titles” So l remember a lot of the credits while focusing, checking the framing and light. Technically there were differences in film stock so focus could not be preset.
 

The music was by Stanley Myers and the next credit from memory was “violin solo by Jean-Luc Ponty”. I was not aware of this musician so l researched him as in 1972 he was not well known.

The prominent electric violin was played with a tortured, strident quality. The counter pointing orchestral strings/electronic pulsating arrangement perfectly matched the onscreen visuals. Oliver Reed alone in a prison cell exercising using the available fixtures and furnishings. Think of iron bars, bedsteads with bench pressings/pushups and sweat.

There was never an LP soundtrack to my knowledge. There was a CD release 30+ years later l bought because l always recalled the well crafted opening scene. Strangely JLP is not even mentioned at all on the CD as a contributor.

l was wondering if you are a completist with your JLP collection and know of this music? The opening scene for me is the films stand out moment because of the visual and music integration.
 

l hope this is useful info for you and for any other collectors out there that may not even be aware of this piece of music. Without that “on screen” credit it may have never been known it was JLP

I like Ponty...

 I am curious to hear  asvjerry recommendation ...

@asvjerry Back on topic and JLP.

Bruce Springsteen

CORRECTION for “Back on topic and JLP”

Sorry @asvjerry  the above post was wrongly selected for you and was meant for @simao 

@mahgister please note this in reference to your last post request to @asvjerry You can repost the question if you wish to @simao 

@simao Please see 5 posts back the one that was intended for you reference “Back on topic and JLP”

@mylogic Fittingly for this thread, my wife cannot stand Jean Luc Pointy. However he and some of his musicians like Rayford Griffin and Casey Schuerell have really influenced my own musicianship. No, I have not heard of that film and his contribution to it, but thank you for bringing it to my attention. 

@simao JLP and “Sitting Target”

The opening main title is on YouTube, plus a longer (with some film soundtrack effects) expanded sections taken from DVD. Search “Youtube Stanley Myers Sitting Target”

Stanley Myers mentored a young Hans Zimmer into film music composing.

@lordmelton “Geldolf an opportunistic untalented gravy train rider”

Please excuse Bob if you do not get a reply today…. He don’t like Mondays.
