All right.......it's has been crazy busy. Stupid. Moronic. I am jacked up on adrenaline now. I feel that like I've done a wheel barrel follow of coke. Not that I know from experience.Anyway.It's been a while. We'll get into to why later. I wanted to make this post some time ago. It's been gnawing at the back of my virtual skull for a while. So a bunch of us were offered passes to the Shine A Light movie at a Imax before it came out.First off I , for the most part,... MORE
Just wanted to say that the movie was pretty unreal - Scorcese really killed it again (in a good way, of course). They look so old, but their live performance is still amazing and each of their (colorful) personalities really come through. Also wanted to link to this A.V. Club primer on the Stones they put out right before the film premiered - it's a pretty good retrospective.
...at age 102, and I'd like to think that without him, we never would have had this great album and this song in particular, check it. Rest in peace, Dr. Hoffman, you are no longer 2000 Light Years From Home.
...i am just testing something out. feel free to play the Rolling Stones classic, "Brown Sugar," asociated with this test post.

So it's reported to be a classic, and I have never listened to it from start to finish, I have never listened to all of the songs in order in one sitting, so why not give it a shot....
I will report back when it's done.
Such a calm fury to this Jagger/Richards tune; the kind of beautiful contradiction that can arise from a state of tired delirium. The two Stones were the only remaining members of the band left at the studio after a long session, and in the wee hours they composed this B-side to “The Last Time”. Phil Spector played bass on the track; Jack Nitzsche, the harpsichord; a late night janitor sang back-up.
Caught “Shine a Light” the other night. It’s the latest concert documentary to feature what remains of the former “World’s Greatest Rock and Roll Band” – the Rolling Stones. Drawn from two rather intimate shows at New York City’s Beacon Theater during the ex-British Invasion icons’ recent tour to promote their umpteenth album A Bigger Bang, the film was directed by no less than Academy Award-winner (and longtime Stones fan) Martin Scorsese. The MOG intelligentsia recentl...
