Thanks for these, Bayou Gal. They all decided to grow beards together - how cute they are. I love Jimmy's hat with the flower on it. LOL

RIP Gloria LynneJazz singer Gloria Lynne diesOct. 20, 2013, 1:54 PM EST
WENN
Jazz star Gloria Lynne has passed away just weeks before her 84rd birthday.
The singer died after suffering a heart attack at Columbus Rehabilitation Center in Newark, N.J., on Tuesday.
She was set to celebrate her birthday on November 23.
Born in Harlem, New York to a gospel singing mother, Lynne won the Apollo Theater's amateur concert aged 15, before finding national fame in the U.S. by appearing on Harry Belafonte 's "Strolling '20s" TV special in the 1960s.
She joined her peers Ella Fitzgerald, Ray Charles and Johnny Mathis on the country's jazz club scene and secured hits with ballads including "I Wish You Love" and "I'm Glad There Is You."
Lynne continued performing throughout her life, giving her last show in August at New York's 54 Below venue.

no wes, the one i quoted is just a joke one.
Waaaaaaaaaaaa
:hysterical: Now, this made me laugh STZ. -
It's Bonzo. He used to wear that robe on stage sometimes. There are other photos with him wearing it.

^That is a good idea. I would like to have some of his jewelery... If I could afford it.
What a great idea. Can you imagine what chaos that would cause. People would be lined up for miles. I would like one of his little blue blouses. Oh, I would give my last dime for the blouse he wore when he sang SIBLY at the MSG for TSRTS.

Tuna salad on Rosemary Olive bread. Tomato soup. Ice tea.

Don't know why Strider's post showed up twice. My notebook is extremely sensitive.
Anyway, what do you put in your tuna salad, Strider?. It is probably something very exotic. I just use the tuna in the bag and dump Hellman's mayo on it, a little sea salt, and chopped onion. Quite yummy to me.

so so so gorgeous
Chris: The poster or Earl's Court ... or both?

I am going to see "Captain Phillips" this weekend. I also want to see "Counselor" when it comes out. Has a good cast and it's about a lawyer

A grilled cheese sandwich made with whole wheat bread and cheddar cheese, a cup of white seedless grapes and a cup of Progresso chunky tomato soup for lunch.
This might be my favorite lunch, Disco. Doesn't get any better!!

You know, I love Earl's Court 1975 because Robert and Jimmy had their hair fluffed out to the max and they also had on some lip gloss. Two more beautiful creatures have never walked the earth.
Thank you Anjin for the lovely poster-picture.

Young Guitar (November 2013) (Japan)
Scan courtesy Steve A. Jones Archive
Thanks for this Steve. I know you will be getting a copy. I was always fascinated by the love the Japanese people had for Zeppelin. I was watching a video of P/P in Japan. When they showed the audience, well, they were absolutely manic!! I am happy to see Jimmy is front and center on the mag's cover.

I love my CI too. One must have a good CI, seasoned just right, in order to make good corn bread.

he knows it too! Every time he looked in the mirror. But it is hard not to recognize perfection, even if it is your own.

It's a great theatre...if you're ever down in L.A., I'll treat you to a movie there.
Earlier tonight, Director Richard Donner attended the screening of "The Omen" at the American Cinematheque's Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood. Richard then did a Q & A. Besides "The Omen", he is well known for the Christopher Reeve "Superman" and the "Lethal Weapon" movies. He also directed tons of television shows and to a sizable part of the population may be most beloved for being the director of the original Twilight Zone episode "Nightmare at 20,000 Feet", starring William Shatner. Coincidentally, tonight was the 50th anniversary of the first air date of that landmark episode...October 11, 1963. Here is Richard Donner with a friend tonight.
Earlier this week, I also went to see "Gravity" a second time...this time in 3D IMAX at the newly refurbished and reopened Chinese Theatre.
Blew me away even more the second time...pottedplant, get ready for a heartstopping rollercoaster ride tonight. They had the space suit costumes worn by Sandra Bullock and George Clooney in the lobby of the theatre.
OMG- I couldn't wait, so I went last night. The movie is still in my head. The visual experience in that 3D Imax, or whatever you call it, was out of this world (no pun intended). I can't wait until we can talk about it. The story the movie told will have a lot of different interpretations and perspectives. Everyone should see this movie; your heart will be the better for it.

I like a Tawny Port, but I realize many people don't like ports or sherries. If that is the case with you, try a Sauternes or a Madeira wine instead.
Some people recommend one of the German whites...a Gewürz or Riesling, but I have never been able to find one that convinces. An Eiswein might work...I've had it with chocolate but haven't tried it with cookie or peanut butter yet.
Speaking of chocolate, I recently acquired a bottle of chocolate wine and am waiting for the right opportunity to try it. I'll let you know how it goes.
I love port and sherry. I love Sandeman "Rainwater." I think that would do fine with our peanut butter and cookie butter treats. Let us know about the chocolate wine. Should be interesting. The Spanish sherries are the very best - almost like drinking brandy.

Italian grinders after a long day of shopping with my girl.
And I found at Trader Joe's something called 'Cookie and Cocoa Swirl' butt

-
Good Gawd - I posted to my own post somehow. Too much wine already.
-
ebk- If you have some delicious peanut butter to go with the wine - I'm in!! So - you, me, planted and Strider - what a crew, drinking wine, eating peanut butter, maybe listening to some Zep - nothing better to make me happy.
