You got 290,000 dollars laying around? How about placing a bid on the drum head that appeared on the album cover of The Beatles' "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band". Christie's of London is expecting to collect as much as £150,000 for the drum cover (that's right, you dont get the actual drum, just the cover that bears the album name). While this costs a pretty penny, it's still significantly cheaper than the Death Row Records catalog, which is also being auctione... MORE
Its been a while since I've been online or replied. I've been busy with the NBA playoffs and obtaining Purple Chicks remastered Beatles. Enjoy and reply...
According to Rolling Stone Magazine The Beatles' Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is the greatest album of all-time. Not many people would disagree that this album is up there as one of the greatest. Well, if you had to pick the most epic song from that album (perhaps the most epic in the Beatles catalogue) it would without a doubt have to be the album's final track, number 13, Lennon/McCartney's "A Day In the Life."

I'm feeling chilled out to the max this evening, and this song brings out memories of too many chemical-filled nights in college (thank the gods I actually got through!), but I don't regret any of them, as they expanded my mind to proportions I never thought possible. Rock on!
Watched a prog on the Beeb the other night showing Kaiser Chiefs, Razorlight et al try to recreate Sgt Pepper at Abbey Road. Why all the fuss? It's easy to recreate the sound of the Fab Four on a home recording setup. Just follow my simple 10 point plan: 1. Record some acoustic guitar with slapback echo. One of them toy ones will do, if the strings hurt your fingers, just wear boxing gloves.2. Record the same chords using the free MDA piano plugin set to the "school ... MORE
...it was forty years ago _today_, and not yesterday that this was released. Yeah, I know, Damn Americans.
Where were we...Ah, Yes! Through security and just waiting for the plane now. At this point, I think I'd go with a medley. It starts with The Beatles "Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite", then blends to The Doors "People are Strange". The idea being that sitting in the airport with my iPod on leads to the ever popular People-watching pastime. The circus theme prevails in this medley. :) Then the dreaded cattle call comes and everyone filters into the plane. Pushing, ... MORE
