I myself discovered Zappa at a relatively late age. Since then, many other types of music have tasted like over-diluted and tasteless mixed juice.
Hereās my favorite of Zappaās live performances. It contains perhaps the best guitar solo ever.
Thereās still time until Kalevala Day, but letās put out this weekendās creation a bit early as I got excited about Suno again after a long time.

Iām not going to start linking any āThereās still summer leftā music stuff here, but at the local Prisma, I noticed that without making a big deal about it (no red price tag or anything), the prices of summer beers had been nicely reduced. So, thereās still summer leftā¦

Not exactly a balm for wounds, but for recent game-related wounds, especially in three-point successes ā¦
So, congratulations, Wolves, for a truly great game, and its nuances:

And on the sidelines, wondering about the US indices, today too:
You see Iāve been through the desert
On a horse with no name
It felt good to be out of the rain
In the desert, you can remember your name

The historical pressure on the favorite held, even though, evidently lulled by a lead that āalready seemed certain,ā truly thrilling cold ring moments were served for a moment as the game transitioned from the third to the fourth quarter:

Anecdote from youth:
Baltimore, summer 1979 (I was 14 years old). I participated in a family exchange program, where the previous summer (13 years old, 1978) an American boy came to stay with us for a month to get to know Finland and Finns, and the following summer I traveled to their place (Knoxville, Tennessee) for a month to experience American life, and the divorced mother took us on a road trip, for example, to the capital, and there we stayed in a suburb of Baltimore, whether it was a brother or a cousin (I no longer remember), but from there I got, among other things, Roy Orbison LPs as a souvenir when he heard that I was into 50s music at the time. My few memories from there culminate in the family motherās comments at traffic lights, saying that if you see someone approaching the car, Iāll hit the gas, whether the lights are green or red, meaning Baltimoreās reputation was really bad back then, and the acclaimed HBO series: The Wire is set in that city. As a long introduction to the eveningās music choice: Baltimore (Randy Newman)
Edit: also a note from Knoxville, that Neyland Stadium, home of the Tennessee Volunteers, NCAAF (capacity >100,000) is located there, and Georgia Bulldogs at Tennessee Volunteers is just starting via DAZN, and when that boy came to us in the summer of 1978, he brought a Georgia Bulldogs t-shirt, and because American football was a completely unknown sport to me, I didnāt understand what I understand now: Why didnāt he bring his hometown teamās shirt (stadium built: 1921)?
Excerpt from the lyrics:
»Beat-up little seagull
On a marble stair
Tryinā to find the ocean
Lookinā everywhere
Hard times in the city
In a hard town by the sea
Aināt nowhere to run to
There aināt nothinā here for free
Hooker on the corner
Waitinā for a train
Drunk lyinā on the sidewalk
Sleepinā in the rain
And they hide their faces
And they hide their eyes
āCause the cityās dyinā
And they donāt know whyĀ«
What is the most serious crime you have committed? For me, itās aggravated fraud. Or at least thatās how I interpret having appeared in an insurance company commercial when I was in elementary school. With the proceeds of the crime, I financed my first audio purchase, which was a Billy Idol cassette:
Iām proud that even as an elementary school student, I understood that the cassette was an unsuitable format, and I switched to buying vinyl records.

Usually, Iām stuck with 1960s-1970s music, so a leap into the 1980s is a step forward. Not necessarily in terms of musical quality, but nostalgia also has its value.
Peterās Pop Show 1986 - with moving pictures:
What an entertaining work afternoon with 80s songsā¦I listened through the whole set with the feeling of āsinging while you workā
For me, especially the 80s (and much of the 90s too) hit me musically right in the heart, if I have to name any era. But of course, diamonds can be found from
I just finished reading a book about Children of Bodom, and it certainly makes you sad when you think about how a tremendous success story was ultimately squandered. Reading took a long time as I also listened through the bandās discography as it was covered in the book. Even though I can pretty much list the bandās discography from start to finish anyway
I still always do that when I read a musicianās/bandās biography. It helps you get more immersed somehow and as if live that history with the band.
In honor of Friday and the budding customs chaos, hereās my personal favorite Bodom track. Hopefully, we still manage to avoid the dead end.

To the edge of the market disruption that is increasingly coloring the horizon for next year orange, a little blue longing too:

I have listened to the song at least tens of times, and in my opinion, it is one of the best songs ever made.
But, I always remember when a Fender Stratocaster guitar of exactly the same color was for sale at a good price on Tori, which was only a few serial numbers away from the one Gilmour used (I dug up the information from somewhere online back then), and I would have had the money to buy it. I thought about it one day too long. I still regret this unfulfilled purchase the most, probably in vainā¦
