    • Yes, it's true about Joy Division coloring book - here's the LINK (pic No. 6). Among the rest lies more weird JD merch (my favs are No. 11 & 12). :)

    • Nice. I think they were sold out by the time I got out of the house. I have a pic of a Tennessee Ernie Ford's Biscuits and Gravy 45 (TWO 45s) on my page. In the 90's , a woman told me about George Jones' Cat Food and Dog Food. I said, WHAAAAA? She said "Yeah , it was orange - colored , and my dog's STOOL came out the same color ! ". I was kinds disappointed by last years' Record Store Day loot. Lots of artists I love , just nothing rare. iF YOU MUST Overcharge me , give me an incentive to buy. That's all I had to say about it.

    • Syd Barrett coloring book?  Awesomely and appropriately trippy.  Last year I got the less appropriately but equally trippy Buck Owens original 1970 coloring book.  It was a record store day exclusive.  It has been hard to resist coloring in it, but I framed it and hung it on the wall instead.  Doesn't seem to be anything nearly as cool being released at record store day this year...

    • Yes , the first time I saw Patti , she did this. She did'nt change it much , but ,I thought , WHY?  But , she went on about how great Jerry Garcia was.......OK , EACH TO HIS OWN , BUT , I THOUGHT THAT WAS A WORSE OFFENSE....And my neighborhood was densely populated by Grunge Rockers and Dead Heads in the 90's , so , there was a LOT of body odor action goin' down . Smells like Teens refusing to bathe.

    • Did we fail to mention Brown Sugar or did I miss it? 

      Gold coast slave ship bound for cotton fields,
      Sold in a market down in new orleans.

      Hear him whip the women just around midnight.
      Ah brown sugar how come you taste so good
      (a-ha) brown sugar, just like a young girl should

      John Battles sez: "It's funny that "Satisfaction" was sometimes censored , yet Jagger throws in the "B" word twice on ("Stupid Girl")"

      They probably got away with that because "Stupid Girl" was just an album cut. At a time when radio stations were singles-oriented and rarely played album tracks, that was what made the difference.

    • They just removed that line...It still turns up. They removed an inoffensive line from "Miss You" , because it went on too long.

      I didn't realize there was even a censored version of "Some Girls." I'm curious as to what they changed the offending lyrics to.

      I don't think I know that one. Is that an instrumental that very closely resembles "Boss" by The Rumblers? Just as "The Fourth Dimension" by The Ventures is obviously "Werewolf" by The Frantics? "Drug Train" (Which is listed, but does'nt appear , on some copies of "Songs The Lord Taught Us".) is widely believed to have been (Lovingly) lifted from the Rockabilly classic "Please Give Me Something".

    •  I've seen "Saddle Up A Buzz Buzz " listed as having been lifted from "Evil Hoodoo" by The Seeds. It's very similar , but , not the same. Fuzzed - out , but , in a different key. As much as I hate to say it , "Misty Mountain Hop" by Led Zeppelin is actually closer.....But , if that was conscious , it's because Robert Plant actually has great taste in music that has little or nothing to do with Zeppelin.
