They're long-time friends: they own one farmstead locally and manage two more. Greenhouses, veg, flowers for the market, but also goats, dairy cows, chickens, ducks, a large assortment of rodents, about half a dozen dogs…
Some, but not a tremendous amount: about 15 goats, four diary cows, about 100 chickens, couple dozen ducks. They raise guinea pigs and rabbits too. But most of it is plantings. There are employees doing most of the work, and the nephew can run the place, but he's an adult with Down syndrome so they want someone trusted in the house with him, just in case something odd happens. That's me the last few days. It's been fun, plus I like riling up the goats.

Hey everyone! I was in the kitchen with Tuck. Here's some charcuterie stuff Tuck and me made just now. Enjoy! www.blondelish.com...
↳
Song:
"Fire" by "The Crazy World Of Arthur Brown"
I might not have seen the best gigs in the world (I do envy quite many people here due to their live music experiences) but take my word for it - Arthur Brown is still in fine form, go see him should he raise heck next door
It must be the drink in me that I spoke German (only when drunk, not to forget my minilecture re: 4-track portastudios )but in the spirit, Ich möchte ein Weissbire bitte (zum Beispiel Paulaner)
↳
Song:
"No More Sunshine Till May" by "As You Like It"
I'm generally not in favour of the "no sunshine til may" sentiment—as I prefer autumn and winter—but I don't think I'd ever heard this massive organ break. Which I very much like.
Trust me, the 50 in me wants things to be boring - the recent "12 hours missing" adventure was not what I ordered. It did go to show insomnia and amnesia go together well...
Ta! One should celebrate their round numbers, me on my 50th birthday - I was packing my vinyls for storage, only for the whole lot to be disassembled and repackaged the next day! Wasted opportunities...
You have to play a special song on a church organ to unlock the landlord's secret door, and it's really just an excuse to have an all keyboard/organ show
While I am not friend of any heavy metal machismo, there is a certain OOOOMPH here that I love! I do miss a certain childhood friend and listening to this at the local library, you UK folks would say "we was but wee lads"

happy may day, happy beltane, and happy 420, flames up for deep purple!! 🔥🔥🔥💐🧺🕊️💜
For a few years I played with a band of mostly ex-pats. One of the rules was that we could never play (or even allude to) Deep Purple because the drummer (whose band it was) had been in some sort of rap feud with Ritchie Blackmore since 1964.
Okay - we need to reconvene soon with drinks and a chat then :-)

Paper Kosmonaut:
The film is called Witte Wieven in Dutch "White Witches", is a good translation. Witte Wieven also are the patches of fog you can see over the country in the morning.
I remember someone in the band stated that the secret of Deep Purple's appeal was that they brought together two different sides of rock music, mixing the more sophisticated prog rock of the era with the sleazy hard rock of the time. You had Lord and Blackmore with their classical training and elaborate playing while the rest of the band were down to Earth blues rockers.
If you have heard good music as a child, it will stay with you, as in my case The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Jimi Hendrix, The Doors, The Yardbirds, Deep Purple, Led Zeppelin, The Who, Pink Floyd, Genesis and I should stop as the list will go on and on

red_door_what_for in ypsilanti:
@The Barman -- good evening Barman! I hope you are having a merry Beltane . could I get something.... on fire? with flaming shots perhaps? 🔥
That actually might be the reason why Deep Purple were not treated as badly as Black Sabbath for instance, who were blues rockers to begin with who started to minimalize their output down to the lowest common denominator (I do NOT mean this in a bad way, love them!) and the critics let them know what they had done, like I read some Rolling Stone or whatever album guide as a kid, and the Black Sabbtah albums did not even get one star out of five but a bullet... To think they started a couple of metal genres (doom, stoner, etc) the contemporary critics could not exactly predict the future... :)
This witchy drink manual has one where you burn a sprig of rosemary in the inverted glass first, might have to try that one later. Seems the day for it.
The original Dutch version of The Vanishing, called "Spoorloos" (Without a Trace) was a good realistic shocking film. I haven't seen The Human Centipede.

DJ GeorgyGirl:
I haven't had tacos in ages ... I need to rectify that!
Mr. Fab mentioned a few months back that many critics dismissed Kraftwerk as a gimmick act for all the robot and sci-fi theming they used. This is the group that pretty much founded all popular forms of electronic music.
Yes, Jay, GG, remember hearing certain early 1960s music biz people would say "nothing of any merit ever came from Liverpool" to a hopeless bunch called The Beatles. They probably did not make it but correct if I am wrong
Well at least The Beatles did not permorm an audition to him unlike the case with Decca Jay mentioned
(and no, the Decca audition is very charming but yet a far cry from what they would turn up with on their debut - the Decca audition had them with not their best cover versions, certainly not with their best song writing or the best musicianship (not the best performance if you have slept the New Year's night on the floor of a van... and Ringo has not arrived!)
I recall Yes once decided to spend multiple days putting down bathroom tile in a recording booth to get better acoustics. Rick Wakeman got so sick of the band doing this sort of stuff that he walked down the hallway and guest starred on Black Sabbath's Sabbath Bloody Sabbath instead.
5:02pm
Elizabeth:
I thought I recognized Roy’s voice!
"One time during recording, Anderson wanted to replicate the sound he heard while singing in the bathroom and asked lighting engineer Michael Tait to build him a three-sided tiled booth for him to sing in. Despite Tait explaining how the idea would not work, he built one using plywood and glued tiles on the inside. Sound engineer Nigel Luby recalled tiles falling off the box during takes. Wakeman distanced himself from the band as recording went on and spent most of his time drinking and playing darts in the studio bar. Osbourne befriended him and remembered Wakeman was "bored out of his mind", and invited him to play the synthesizer on "Sabbra Cadabra". Wakeman would not accept money for his contribution, so the band paid him in beer."
Had to use a Wikipedia copy and paste for the whole thing, but the sources are interviews on "Classic Yes" and interviews with Iommi and Ozzy.
If it only was the worst - but if I remember right during the rather testing early 1963 winter they traveled back north with all windows frozen shut. So either they smashed a side window open or managed to open it, either way, very cold, as it had to stay open for the driver to keep an eye on the road. And the Fab Four were laid on the floor of the van as a pile, taking turns, the one on the top would go to the bottom of the human mountain after a certain interval and so on.

Jay Current:
Some more Tales From Topographic Oceans insanity:
"Anderson wanted to record at night under a tent in a forest with electrical generators buried into the ground so they would be inaudible, but "when I suggested that, they all said, 'Jon, get a life!'" Yes were joined by Offord, their engineer and producer who had worked with the band since 1970 and mixed their sound on tour. He pushed their manager, Brian Lane, to record in the country, thinking "some flowers and trees" would lessen the tension that the album was creating within the group."
"In July 1973, Yes settled into studio 3 at Morgan for a period of ten weeks. Lane and Anderson proceeded to decorate the studio to resemble a farm; Squire believed Lane did so as a joke on Anderson as his tent idea was shut down. Anderson brought in flowers, pots of greenery, and cutout cows and sheep; white picket fences were placed around Wakeman's keyboards with amplifiers placed on stacks of hay. When Black Sabbath moved into studio 4 to record Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, singer Ozzy Osbourne visited and recalled a model cow with electronic udders and a small barn in the corner, "like a kid's plaything." Offord remembered the cows being covered in graffiti and the plants dying halfway through recording..."
If I am not wrong there was a toxic fog that winter in London, which did kill people, perhaps due to wrong kind of items being burned for heating purposes?
Have not seen that one. Yes, every day I regre I have a digital video collection of tens of thousands and yet I am in my 50s having not seen most of it. (and no, it is not trash bit mostly classic stuff)

Yes, that was just a test to see if they got a "WTF are you on about with these M&Ms?!" when someone read the technical rider. If they didn't get pushback on that, it probably meant nobody had read it.
My dad told me about experiencing one in the 40s. He was on the bus back to Clapton, but there was a total white-out and they had to stop the bus at Manor House. Luckily for him there was a blind man on the bus, and he led my dad home. Priceless.
Sinatra reportedly required running water and a shower in his dressing room. However, Iggy Pop used to require seven dwarves, cigaraettes he hated just so he could throw them away, and two bottles of red wine he couldn't pronounce.
He needs to see at least 20 headlight on the highway with photographic proof.

I remember someone in the band stated that the secret of Deep Purple's appeal was that they brought together two different sides of rock music, mixing the more sophisticated prog rock of the era with the sleazy hard rock of the time.

That actually might be the reason why Deep Purple were not treated as badly as Black Sabbath for instance, who were blues rockers to begin with who started to minimalize their output down to the lowest common denominator (I do NOT mean this in a bad way, love them!) and the critics let them know what they had done, like I read some Rolling Stone or whatever album guide as a kid, and the Black Sabbtah albums did not even get one star out of five but a bullet... To think they started a couple of metal genres (doom, stoner, etc) the contemporary critics could not exactly predict the future... :)Roberto:

"One time during recording, Anderson wanted to replicate the sound he heard while singing in the bathroom and asked lighting engineer Michael Tait to build him a three-sided tiled booth for him to sing in. Despite Tait explaining how the idea would not work, he built one using plywood and glued tiles on the inside. Sound engineer Nigel Luby recalled tiles falling off the box during takes. Wakeman distanced himself from the band as recording went on and spent most of his time drinking and playing darts in the studio bar. Osbourne befriended him and remembered Wakeman was "bored out of his mind", and invited him to play the synthesizer on "Sabbra Cadabra". Wakeman would not accept money for his contribution, so the band paid him in beer."Had to use a Wikipedia copy and paste for the whole thing, but the sources are interviews on "Classic Yes" and interviews with Iommi and Ozzy.

If it only was the worst - but if I remember right during the rather testing early 1963 winter they traveled back north with all windows frozen shut. So either they smashed a side window open or managed to open it, either way, very cold, as it had to stay open for the driver to keep an eye on the road. And the Fab Four were laid on the floor of the van as a pile, taking turns, the one on the top would go to the bottom of the human mountain after a certain interval and so on.DJ GeorgyGirl: Crap - I've got hiccups AND an itchy nose.

I think we might be getting somewhere with that suggestionJay Current: Some more Tales From Topographic Oceans insanity:
"Anderson wanted to record at night under a tent in a forest with electrical generators buried into the ground so they would be inaudible, but "when I suggested that, they all said, 'Jon, get a life!'" Yes were joined by Offord, their engineer and producer who had worked with the band since 1970 and mixed their sound on tour. He pushed their manager, Brian Lane, to record in the country, thinking "some flowers and trees" would lessen the tension that the album was creating within the group."
"In July 1973, Yes settled into studio 3 at Morgan for a period of ten weeks. Lane and Anderson proceeded to decorate the studio to resemble a farm; Squire believed Lane did so as a joke on Anderson as his tent idea was shut down. Anderson brought in flowers, pots of greenery, and cutout cows and sheep; white picket fences were placed around Wakeman's keyboards with amplifiers placed on stacks of hay. When Black Sabbath moved into studio 4 to record Sabbath Bloody Sabbath, singer Ozzy Osbourne visited and recalled a model cow with electronic udders and a small barn in the corner, "like a kid's plaything." Offord remembered the cows being covered in graffiti and the plants dying halfway through recording..."

The Barman: Right, last orders at the bar please everyone.
Stanley: Time for a Folderol laced Jagermeister, Mr B, please. I fancy some weird dreams tonight.
