Borsalino on E(vil)bay
I must agree violently with you. :) I don't want people to stop showing off their hats at all, I want to see them. I'm just saying that I prefer to see them in some contexts and not in another. My preference would be for people to wait until they actually have the hat in their hands, or better... -
Borsalino on E(vil)bay
Hi RC, I can't send a PM so I'll post this here. I wish you'd won the hat in the listing above (or your main FL competitor). There's nothing evil about taking a chance on something, it's the high reserrve/low information in lisitng that made me pick on this item, not the bidders. As... -

MORE Bad Record Albums
My wife and I are having a blast. Mae West is indeed truly, profoundly, gloriously rancid. Ethel Merman is Ethel Merman even with the 5 1/2 minutes of disco around her. Tony Bennet singing Eleanor Rigby will change your life: http://franklarosa.com/vinyl/Exhibit.jsp?AlbumID=2 I just...- jake_fink

MORE Bad Record Albums
Worse? Are you implying that this is bad? THIS IS BRILLIANT! Not since Leonard Nimoy sang about little Bilbo Baggins have I enjoyed my sense of hearing so much. I'm rocking to that Tennessee Waltz Frug too. I may even be on the verge of a...- jake_fink

That's a whole lot of dancing, but does one hand on the keyboard constitute a freakout? [huh] -

WORST Record Albums EVER
A friend of mine who is a "well-respected" jazz critic was asked to compile and eventually write liner notes to a boxed set of these by Steve Allen when the Steve himself had the bright idea of releasing them in their entirety, along with lots of little ditties he wrote and recorded in his... -

Borsalino on E(vil)bay
In the year or so that I've been a member of the Fedora Lounge I've noticed that it has frequently of late become a kind of Ebay fan forum. A "Look what I bought on Ebay!" party. Now, I can admire someone's taste, their eye or aesthetic, even their connoiseurship and of course their... -

WORST Record Albums EVER
Please tell me you are listening to these as you type. Especially the Sebastion Cabot. Also: I had the Fonzie Fonzie and the Laverne and Shirley albums. There were dozens of Fonzi related records available at the time. One of them had a foldout standee on the back of the album so you could... -

Record Art
Here are some I liked when I were a lad: and from the single This Charming Man: (When my grandma saw me wearing a shirt with this image on it from Give 'em Enough Rope she said, and I quote, "Oh, those are nice colours." Yeah, but what about the corpse being eaten by the vulture...- jake_fink
