Robert Vaughn's performance in this cutting edge sociological comment arthouse cineastic gem is absolutely compelling, he was really born for the role.

And Neanderthalmen did age faster, you know.  ;D

In the early years of Mystery Science Theater 3000 (MST3K), their hilarious (IMO) commentary on this movie was one that really solidified their reputation.

I *love* "Little Shop Of Horrors"...would like to re-visit "The Trip" once again after 40+ years. Enjoyed some of the Poe-based-stuff as well.

RIP, sir.

Fender Basses / Re: '74 Tele project and another Vintera II Tele Bass

A question for Mr Dasson.


Did the Vintera pickguard have the same screw hole pattern as the vintage body? I want a black pickguard on my Vintera Tele bass and my usual pickguard supplier only has a 1974 Tele bass pickguard template on file. They've sent me a PDF of it, but it might be a faff to reprint it at scale as the scan is in two parts and looks like a photograph of a pickguard sitting on a cutting mat. A user on Talkbass suggests a good number of the pickguard screw holes are in different positions, based on their own investigations, per: https://www.talkbass.com/threads/71-79-telecaster-bass-with-wrhb-pickup-recreation-with-twists.1650654/

Gibson Basses / Blue Sparkle Epi Thunderbird

 The new Epiphone Blue Sparkle Bird. I can't seem to get a good shot of it though. It's actually very pretty and in certain light is a beautiful sapphire blue color, kind of like a Bombay Gin bottle...............I like the neck on these better than the previous Indonesian made version.

A lot of Corman’s stuff had that “so bad, it’s good”-factor, that is no mean feat. The eyes-plucked-out scene stuck with me forever and made me a fan of that particular bible quote. :mrgrren: The Raven was good, true.

 Not that I see a lot of Jazz artists, but I did actually get to see him at Seattle's Jazz Alley 7-8 years back, it was a really nice evening of music.

Sad. Great player. Loved his Night Music show in the 90s. I have VHS tapes of probably all of them.
