I always thought Ray Charles should've recorded "Mellow."

woah, i was just thinking that harry nilsson would have made a gr8 'i think i'm gonna kill myself'
― strgn, Sunday, 13 July 2008 09:56 (seventeen years ago)
Yeah, that would've been hilarious.

they should have done the scene on the bus in ALMOST FAMOUS with MONA LISAS AND MAD HATTERS.

It has a good record sleeve.

it has a terrible record sleeve, which doesn't easily slide in and out between all your other record sleeves, dammit. good form, lousy function. great album, though, and come to think of it nilsson coulda/shoulda covered the whole thing. "nilsson sings elton," aka "harry chateau."

I'll differ with cuz on the design. It slides in with my other albums fine, and that little flap has never torn -- not bad for a 36-year-old record that I picked up used.

God, what a terrific album. "Slave"!

How 'bout that "Amy"?

He should have created a mash-up called "I Think I'm Gonna Kill Myself From a Bullet in the Gun of Robert Ford."

Thanks, this has inspired me to play it right now.

It's a little difficult to hear some of this properly because it's so familiar; so familiar that I completely don't hear all the details that make it what it is, unless I really listen. Or unless it decides to jump out at me.

Feeling mellow was a bigger thing in the 70s than it has been since, wasn't it?
― _Rudipherous_, Sunday, 3 March 2013 15:35 (twelve years ago)
Have you ever been mellow?
