Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

I'd like a hot-doggie! |

![]() Hmm. I was 14 or so when Magic Christian was originally released, but I didn't see it until I was 23, in the now-lost Bleeker Street Cinema, with a school pal, on a double bill with Candy. Then my pal and I went across the street to see David Peel and the Lower East Side. Did I mention that my pal went on to be an undersecretary in the Dubya Bush administration? The wonder of it all. |

![]() I first saw the Magic Christian and a friend's house when I was a teen and I recall laughing like crazy. IT was in the 1980's so the film was already maybe 20 years old. |

The Warnes album was a lodestar for high-end audio types immediately upon its arrival. That's how I found out about it, and that's why it took me so long to pay any attention to it. Funny, just this morning I was thinking about it. I picked up a couple cheap old Rondstadt LPs yesterday. To my ears they are splendidly recorded and engineered, a fact that reminded me of Warnes. | |
![]() |
![]() I can't hold Jennifer and Linda in the same thought. I am not a fan of Linda. |
Fri. 9/25/15 1:19pm
Dean:
A pity. Those pre-'76 records are really well done in every respect: material, performance, engineering. Sure, J.D. Souther and Andrew Gold could be jerky, but I guess that comes with the territory (namely, Hollywood). If there's a QED, it's Linda's take on Dolly's "I Will Always Love You." Dolly's is beautiful, and I wouldn't want to prefer one to the other, but Linda owns it, too. | |
![]() |
![]() I think those records are perfection and that Linda has a hell of a set of pipes...somewhere along the line I started noticing that I wasn't hearing any real human connection between the singer and the song. They just sound like words when she sings...to me. |

![]() Michael i've been inconsistently here but now i'm out for good. Thank you! ciao y'all. |

That captures what I heard beginning with "Hasten Down the Wind," which is weird, because it's pretty much another "Hasten" and "Prisoner," featuring tunes by Karla Bonoff, Ry Cooder, Warren Zevon, Willy Nelson. I *should* enjoy it, but I don't. Maybe at that point the Ronstadt template had taken over. | |
![]() |
![]() Take care coelacanth! I love Karla Bonoff records. |
Fri. 9/25/15 1:28pm
Dean:
Hell, yeah. | |
Fri. 9/25/15 1:29pm

Erratum: "Hasten" is pretty much another "Heart Like a Wheel." | |
