Getting Felt Up Today

This makes for a swell Yuletide package to gift yourself! Simply pretend it's from someone else - perhaps the hot Latina at the nailtician, or Mamie Van Doren contacting you from the afterlife. Or if you're a dame, some dreamy guy, maybe Jerry Van Dyke or that barechested guy at the carwash with the do-rag and biker belt. Maybe not him. Point is, here's an opportunity to boost your self-esteem, which if it's like mine, is eminently boostable at this point in time, having been deflated by cruel circumstance and the whims of Dame Fate.

It's ninety - count 'em - tracks of the Doors on stage, real-time and prime. These are the performances that were milked for various releases over the years before being issued as the complete cow in a limited edition box upholstered in vealskin. A small phial of backstage body fluids, authenticated by Ray Manzarek, was included in the initial run.

This has been tagged from track one to track ninety, as one improbable disc, so if you're into the tangible permanence of the physical doodad, you're on your own.

  2. How many "Daves" are you letting into this place?!?! I feel like the four or five guys (and our one token Dame) is now like six or even seven guys. Are there enough copies of these albums to go around?

    1. "Dave" is the new "anon", Dave. Our one "token dame" is very much one of the four or five guys. I've been keeping my eye on the blogger stats counter, and page views are hovering consistently around the four or five for every post. The slowest of you to download may notice a diminishing of audio quality due to lack of freshness.

  3. I'm good being just one of the guys. Us girls use it all the time, specially in mixed groups. Anyway, I'm skipping the Doors (have enough of them), but thanks for Spirit in the previous post. BTW--Mamie Van Doren is still alive and Jerry Van Dyke who's in the afterlife (Wikipedia is always right, right?) Jerry is old enough to be my dad, so not exactly my dreamboat. I did have a preteen serious crush on Mike Smith (DC5).

    1. Factual content is pretty unreliable here, MsM, as you may have gleaned. Mostly I type the first thing that comes into my head. Sometimes, on mature reflection, the second. Pleased to number you among the Four Or Five Guys!
