Don Caron - Parody Project. All content too political to link here, methinks, but an absolutely brilliant lyricist, multi-talented musician, vocalist and social commentator and gamer of the English language. One could immerse themselves for days in his and Roy Zimmerman's work - the discovery such talent during these stay at home times is beyond serendipity.

Good morning everyone :)

Im listening to my Johnny Mathis greatest hits 8 track tape :)

Current song: A Certain smile - Ray Ellis and his orchestra

I love how they didnt ruin the songs on this album... Some of them say "Electronically re-recorded to simulate stereo" and most often that ruins the sound.... I have heard some songs they did that to and they just sound disgusting! (The guy singing is in the background and echos for example) -- Thankfully ALL THE SONGS sound goregous on this album. (I listen in MONO but they would still sound OFF if they didnt do those right)

No Dolby on it either which is nice......
