Deliverance


Classic.

Mr. Spellman sleuthed out the truth behind Miami's infamous Don Bailey and his amazing carpets.

The real question I'd like answered is: "How do I get my hands on one of those posters and/or billboards?"
Timeless Miami treasure right there, and I'd hate for em to be thrown out like a Pluto Nash movie poster, and I would find room for it.


Wait, no moustache preening shop?

Also, regarding the solution to the case [See blog link above], Burt Reynolds has his own museum/gallery in Jupiter, Florida, of which the business card I recently found when cleaning up my room. If it were worth posting a photo of, I would've done so; but woefully it is more American Psycho than moustache.

Shoulda, Coulda...

And the infamous BR Playgirl layout has also been recently implicated as the source material for Republican Senator Scott Brown spread came out during the recent Massachusetts race.


Being in Jupiter, Uncle Burt's museum isn't that far from Miami, and the city has other great sites, like a lighthouse and . . . well, that's about it. (C'mon, you know you're only really going to see the canoe from Deliverance and chance to catch Burt on his frequent pop-ins.)

That, ladies and gentlemen, is the way to force the only transition I could think of into the only track that might be as random as pulling a direct line between Don Bailey and Sen. Scott Brown. And you haven't been thinking about Bubba Sparxx nearly as much as he's been thinking about you.


Bubba Sparxxx - Deliverance (Rowshay Edit) - > really just a DJ tool; one run of the chorus with inst front/back.
I got this off a blog somewhere in the ethernet, but dunno where, apologies and thanks to whomever posted it first.

If you squint your ears enough, you can hear Cee-Lo on this track making a timeless classic (he actually sounds like he's on the chorus -- peep the background echo on the chorus, esp. "...bottle of Shine"... Maybe part hallucination vs not believing Bubba or Timbaland can harmonize that well even w/ tuning). The chorus is so on-point that I had to look into the writer/producer credits of the track. Of course you got the Timbaland credit-whore(harsh?), but if you look at some of the other cats involved in this song, you're looking at a writer for the band Slave and Odyssey and then you got Larry Gold, who has had his hand in all sorts of jams from Salsoul disco days to playing on Karen Young's "Hot Shot"(!?!) to Justin's "Cry Me A River" and even The Roots' Things Fall Apart, namely on my favorite track off that LP, "Act Too (Love of My Life)" [a) I knew all that shit bout LG, or, b) Discogs/Wiki/Google visits help erryone, or c) it doesn't matter cuz now I'mma try to store it].


Cuz I'll use any excuse to post it up, and I mentioned it above in ramblings:

One More Day w/ Lloyd (WMC Edition)

Starting off with an extendo-mission to get my man's station up and running w/ a live broadcast from Bar/PS14, I'll let Lloyd tell the rest via his Twitter:
[You gotta kinda read this from the bottom up to get it chronologically.]











And a big fail stamp on the heads who not only didn't look out for us at Diddy's soiree, but put the block up. Ya'll were on that luke-warm pee-in-a-pool shit!

A1A

EDIT: Woop Woop. Got our first DMCA notice for the blog today. There goes the neighborhood. So, just gon have to take down the tunes - but can't imagine that its Runaway. Anyways, good thing this blog isnt registered under my name.

Beach Front Avenue.

Couple of tunes for your cruise on the strip. (I don't actually recommend you rock top-down w/ these playing, you'll just be 'that' guy everyone rolls their eyes at as you pass by them. Maybe just headphone it on the flight down and use the ol' imagination).
I was going to upload a Kavinsky track, but you can find that elsewhere.

Ridney - At Night (Original) -Removed-
No idea the proper genre classification for this one, i'm goin with 'house/emo'. Kinda on some Falke shit.

Tensnake - Get It Right -Removed-
Got this from Huggs. Check his blog for more tunes you'll never play out.



One, Two, Three - Runaway
Bobby Orlando on the production.

Today also marks the 50th day I've been without the Twitter. Not necessarily by choice, more like my Blackberry Bold's trackball doesn't like scrolling down. It's this type of faux-prevention that rules my life.

C'mon Guy


VS.

I would have found better 'parallel universe' photos, but the production value on this blog has plummeted with this whole just waking up hungover thing.

Lloyd's official now w/ that $14 dot com mega-move!

Wake n Steak

Finally found a good cheese steak spot in Miami. Now it's an addiction, seriously.

I have to pick up EggFoo in an hour from the airport with a whopping hangover. That said, it'll get me out of bed; which is a shame cuz its a rare day w a great breeze coming through the window. You don't really get much thru-home breezing in Miami - its usually too hot and ACs pumping. Best weather in recent memory. Feels like NY/DC in ~August.

Plus side of picking up friends at the airport? Having them believe they can choose the restaurant that they're going to be treating you to momentarily. Damn, I'm hungry. Wake n Steak!
