Lindsey Buckingham and Christine McVie released a new CD, Chuck Berry released his last CD, and Jan & Dean’s REAL Filet of Soul finally arrived …after a quite, well, fishy 52-year delay. Nevertheless, I still found ten more vintage-2017 gems to recommend to each and everyone. In, as always, strictly alphabetical order they are:

Not since someone glued a lightning
bolt to Radcliffe’s forehead or sparkles to Pattinson’s nipples has there been such a nauseating ballyhoo from teenaged girls and creepy middle-aged women. Every aspect of the movie has been gleaned, dissected and analyzed by the fodder feeding media including the outrage by fans of the books that inspired the franchise who were shocked to find out that the black characters were portrayed on screen by…black actors!
Segarini: On the Buses
Posted in Opinion with tags Bee Gees, Buses, California, Cherry Cola's, DBAWIS, Don't Believe a Word I Say, Dudes, Montreal, New York, Road Trips, segarini, Stockton on September 17, 2012 by segariniI haven’t been on one since 1978, when I had to fly out to the Left Coast because my father was gravely ill.
I had flown a lot over the years and at one point, really used to enjoy it. There were dozens of flights to and from San Francisco and Los Angeles, a 45 minute puddle-jump from airport to airport that cost $15US on PSA but then would take another hour to reach my destination which was always as far away from the nearest airport as it could be.
Segarini: The Brothers Gibb
Posted in Opinion with tags Andy Gibb, Bee Gees, Cherry Cola's, DBAWIS, Don't Believe a Word I Say, music, Robin Gibb, segarini on May 22, 2012 by segarini45 years ago this month I was driving back to Stockton from Los Angeles in my brand new Cadillac Eldorado. On the seat next to me was what was left of a bucket of Pioneer Take Out chicken from the little walk-up fast food outlet on Sunset Strip. It was my last stop before hitting the highway home. It was around midnight. I hadn’t eaten all day, and Pioneer made the tastiest, greasiest, chicken you could ever imagine. Next to Pioneer, KFC is flat and sadly tasteless, not to mention that when you bit into a Pioneer thigh or leg, grease squirted everywhere and the flavour of the chicken, the spices, and the breading overwhelmed you with tasty goodness…especially if you had just smoked a joint of Panama Red.
