<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><br /> Pete Holmes is many things, and they're generally pretty well in balance: funny on-his-feet, funny with-his-head ( prepared material ) eclectically gathering wisdom </span><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">without attaching a sealed rear-cover to the "book of clippings" that is an evolving life . .</span><span style="color: #8e7cc3;"> </span><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">ya' know ?<br /><br /><a href="https://vimeo.com/348306247" style="text-align: center;">Holming In On The Source - Pete Holmes Teaser Trailer Video</a></span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"> I first found Pete when searching for appearances Iliza Shlesinger had made, and that was my initial exposure to the <b>Making of Weirdness</b>.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;">I continued to check episodes based on who was being featured at first, and Jenny Slate was the one where I just had to edit a few moments as saved samples.</span><br />
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;">Pete asks if she minds having sex-stuff "<i>done to her</i>"</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<i><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">"sure, let `em . . . you mean like penis and vagina ?"</span></i></div>
<div class="p1">
<i><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">"no . . ."</span></i></div>
<div class="p1">
<i><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">"you mean like eating pussy ?"</span></i></div>
<div class="p1">
<i><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">"<b>POO !!</b>"</span></i></div>
<div class="p1">
<i><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">"I've never done The P<span class="s1">oo</span>-Laugh ! . . . "</span></i></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><i>That's</i> it !! . . . <i>I'm</i> in !<br />"The PoO-Laugh" was both cartoony and real.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;">and also with Jenny I snagged - "<i>I'm gonna' get drunk in the <b><span class="s1">sk</span>y !!</b></i>"</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"> As I've continued listening ( usually in my overnight suburban cab ) I will snap a pic of the timing for a "must have moment" and later edit-away at the full file.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;">Counting full-eps & sample-folders for most . . many TBS monologues and a few videos, the Pete Holmes folder is now > "16.56 GB on disk for 965 items" <</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"> Pete is a unique spirit, my current fave comedian and all around smarty-guy, and samples have been sprinkled atop many "mash-ups" and sample-pieces.</span></div>
<div class="p1">

<span style="color: #8e7cc3;">This comp has been nearly returned to for completion and release every year since 2015 . . .</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;">but life and <i>other</i> projects were not quite allowing the time necessary .</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"> One upside of that is --- most of my tracks here have been slowly coming along the whole time, so a couple months of building it from the hallowed ground up wasn't the approach . . it was slow-roasted & ghostly toasted ! ( so it's <i>mostly</i> more mosted . . and I'm sorry I've boasted )<br /><br />
</span><br />
<div class="p1">

</div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"> The whole time I sort'a figured it was to be an <b>AtoZ</b> collection, with maybe 3 or 4 from <b><a href="http://groovytimewithdjuseo.blogspot.com/2018/10/halloween-ep-2018.html">DJ Useo</a></b>.</span></div>
<br />
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;">But August 20th of 2018, I shared a hopefully exciting folder of 33 isolated vocals . . isolated for the first time ( far as <i>I</i> know ) via Phonic Minds. And offered for everyone's fun and participation.</span><br />
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/rui.carpelho">DJ Rudec</a></b>, who at first claimed to have little European affinity for Halloweening, soon succumbed to the nefarious spell I'd cast and got into the more universal / global mood of creepy ominous forebodery . . gracing <i>and</i> cursing us with <b>3 submissions !!<br /><br /><a href="https://www.facebook.com/djspideruk">DJ Spider</a> </b>and <b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/djdawgun">DJ DAW-GUN</a> </b>also joined our digital coven.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;">Concept & Cover: well folks, "<b>The Fright Album</b>" is quite the natural title for a bunch'a spooky tunes, right ? </span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;">But them Beatles aren't the theme thruout . . not like 2012's <a href="http://www.mediafire.com/file/p5cu1tpdxkm775t/YCMT-31.zip">"You Can't Mash That #31 - BeatleWeen"</a> , nope.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #8e7cc3;">Rather, they am our hosts behind the overall concept . . . and do indeed feature on AtoZ's track - "A Stranger Day" . . so there !<br /><br />and ? . . when reading the <i><b>required</b></i> Comp-Notes, the .rtf TextEdit version has lot'sa hyperlinks what actually work like links !<br />Rather than the oddly formatted pdf, which just sort'a looks pretty ?</span></div>

<b> Early in the last week of April 2017, some spark of a query had me Googling something about Elton isolated vocals or such . . who recalls every little curve in the paths of "lemme' check this . . Oo, what's that there ? . . ok, I'll go left down this-a-way and find whole new levels and get lost for fun's sake !"</b></div>
<div class="p3">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>Point is, I found a <a href="https://www.youtube.com/user/carpetbagg/search?query=elton">YouTuber</a> who'd used 5.1 surround reissues of Sir Elton and posted isolated vocals</b></div>
<div class="p4">
<br /></div>
<div class="p3">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b> Asking Useo if he'd found such treats himself, he said unto me "Cool !! . . no . . please send `em !!".</b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>Only problem was, that upload of "Sweat Painted Lady" was wretched !! . . levels that were, like -90 decibels and when boosted sounded like bees wrapped in waxey-papers !!</b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>His postings, being nearly 9 years old now, just might mean he ain't soon rushing back to fix it neither, huh ?</b></div>
<div class="p3">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>I came home from workitty-work at Sunday's end still determined to find a better Sweet Lady, darn it . . . and had to try various search-terms within WhoTube till I hit upon <a href="https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCbYwprvHLbMCXPA5_ktEkNQ">`dis guy !</a></b></div>
<div class="p4">
<br /></div>
<div class="p3">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>Search Elton on his channel and not only does one find 4,709 live shows, but one also hits a motherlode of FULL-ALBUM vocals !!!!!</b></div>

<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>Jeez BeJeeze huh ? . . neato torpedo !</b></div>
<div class="p3">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>Along w/ previously obtained Elton vocals here n' there, it's all totally overwhelmy !!</b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>One wonders "Gee, how come no "Don't Shoo Me, I'm Only . . " or "Cariboo-Hoo" ??, till one later finds out that those two . . along w/ "Westies" and "Blue Moves" were fully prepared</b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>for 5.1 SACD releases, but the formats never caught-on in the early 00's and the various labels feared losses and backed-off, damn it.</b></div>
<div class="p3">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b> So, Useo's already heard my early sketch work w/ the "Goodbye Yellow Brick" vocal over the inst. of 50 Cent's "8 Mile Road"</b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>While downloading and converting all these albums worth from video to audio aiffs, I spot-listened to a bit of the "Philadelphia Freedom - Vocals" what comes at the end of the "Capt. Fantastic" batch, ok ? . . . . My masher-brain immediately began hearing the inst-version I'd also found of "Sweet Panting Lady" ( only inst mix I did find btw . . odd, no ? . . must be more out there )</b></div>
<div class="p3">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>I also, while merely checking the vocal for "Harmony" thought of the Blu-Ray inst I'd found for xTc's ""When You're Near Me I Have Difficulty"". Adjusted inst's pitch, and I think that'll work pretty swift too.</b></div>
<div class="p3">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>Then ? . . . a couple days later, I merely LOOK at a line from "Writing" while doing a line-by-line edit . . it runs through my head for a second, and I'm thinking of remixing War's "Low Rider" for it !</b></div>

<b> "of Science and Time with MST3k - Season 11"</b></div>
<div class="p2">

<div class="p3">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b> Twas primarily the first 3 episodes of MsT's 11th revived & refreshed season that inspired these 2 sample-piece/mash-ups.</b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>So many swell lines on science and time-travel to use as samples. </b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>And as these pieces neared completion, "Yongary", "Starcrash" and even "what's science ?" from "Carnival Magic" presented themselves with the perfect additions !</b></div>
<div class="p3">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b> I'm sure there's more than a few of us, inhaling the wide-range of creativity in Season 11 over a week or two, who then exhale some creativity infused with it all !</b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>Whether it's paintings, t-shirts, pot-holder & coasters . . or a couple of sample-piece / mashups, like these from </b><a href="https://www.facebook.com/DmRofAtoZ/"><b>AtoZ</b></a><b>:</b></div>
<div class="p5">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b> The inspiration-point for both of these MSTy items is rather simple . . obvious even !</b></div>
<div class="p5">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b> I was already rewatching the earliest episodes ( before finishing the season ) while having also dropped the mp4 files into the audio-editor Fission . . the better to save lines as samples for whatever future purpose.</b></div>
<div class="p5">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b> The "A-Side"</b></div>
<div class="p5">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b> Around the same time, I'd added the extended mix of Thomas Dolby's "She Blinded Me With Science !" to a folder of prospective 80's mashes.</b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b> And "Hey ! . . both "Reptilicus" and "The Time Travelers" are lousy with moments mocking scientists, commenting on scientists, and AS scientists !!"</b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>They'd Binded Me With Science !!</b></div>
<div class="p5">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b> So balance highly scientific use of MST along with Michael Jackson's "Beat It" vocal over the looped & linked Dolby track, and it's "She Beat Me With Science !" . . .</b></div>

<div class="p4">
<b>The bursts of "science !!" from Dr. Magnus Pyke came from a vid of Dolby playing the isolated samples for an audience.</b></div>
<div class="p5">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p4">
<b> And . . well into production on this, I suddenly thought "wait a tic, there has to be an MsT where someone in the theater actually riffs "she blinded me with science !", right ??</b></div>
<div class="p4">
<b>Figure out the right Google search-terms and lo and behead :</b></div>

Kennedy & Martin Luther King vs The Commodores<div class="p1">
Well, this sure came out with about as much righteous glow and stirring humanity as I had hoped !</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<a href="https://www.mediafire.com/?h3btzdtahcjhwx9">Mp3</a></div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<a href="https://youtu.be/BkxUkIHk_H4">Video</a></div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p3">
I know most of us mashers would say, if they had a track that felt rather "Voicedudey" in its concerns and also it's use of Klaatu and such. . & they asked <a href="https://www.facebook.com/joelsteven.voicedude?fref=nf">Voicedude</a> if he thought he could adjust it much quicker and more accurately... and he said "Sure !" ?!….</div>
<div class="p3">
Well, you'd say things about how honored you were, and boy --- I sure am !</div>
<div class="p3">
But beyond that, we're talking about a producer who's not only impeccable in his construction and craft, but is one of the few who can balance snazzy musicality with whimsy and a range of human spirit ! His work has been impressively slick while maintaining humor and engaging verve, man !<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="p2">
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibVSitRqjchBI-h5zi0Ed10uu0X-KKbk2n85hmghwnvqad_rPbKzkuELWgC0lNQ7m7HLbeGvyhxomW67z_Wkk4zci5sk8ikF55e0JXZElIQFJvkl4IEsJmU-ir1S_GWxzBJxUF3okTdIm2/s1600/of+Easy+Calling+-%253Do%253Ei%253Co+.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEibVSitRqjchBI-h5zi0Ed10uu0X-KKbk2n85hmghwnvqad_rPbKzkuELWgC0lNQ7m7HLbeGvyhxomW67z_Wkk4zci5sk8ikF55e0JXZElIQFJvkl4IEsJmU-ir1S_GWxzBJxUF3okTdIm2/s400/of+Easy+Calling+-%253Do%253Ei%253Co+.jpg" width="400" /></a></div>
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
For "of Easy Calling" here . . well when "Easy" came out in March 1977, I noticed immediately ( and still recall right where I was ) how the "ah ahhh ah aaahhh" backing vocal was a complete "reflection" of the vocal from Klaatu's <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9URM_5R-vWk">"Calling Occupants of Interplanetary Craft"</a> released just half a year before ! </div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
So those seeds were sown since then, to one day mash one upon the other . . but I'm pretty sure it wasn't 1977 when I read, or had DJ Useo tell me, that Voicedude was quite the fan of Klaatu . . I'm thinking that must have been more recent.</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
If one knows a V-Dude track like <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IBHfA_uHlis">"A Whiter Shade Of Peace"</a> from 2011, one knows even more fully why I thought this might go right up his alley and salute his flag.</div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
And just to be clear, it was chiefly the Klaatu sample "we are your friends" where I knew my do-it-by-ear skill-set could use the help of a fully musically-trained soul like Joel, whose 1st response included "I LOVE the idea". I sent him all the separated elements and he did some light but invaluable tweaking to other aspects of Klaatu as well.</div>
<div class="p1">
I was then able to finish work on the overall piece with a fuller tank of assured endorsement and pride . .</div>
<br />
<div class="p1">
it was "Easy" !</div>

<div class="p2">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b> And learning a lot more about one brief period in particular made me put down the book</b></div>
<div class="p1">
<b>and jump online to see more, but it's some stuff I see no record <i>anywhere</i> of anyone having collected and presented !</b></div>
<div class="p2">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b> The unique "songlets" that Harry and George Tipton recorded for the 1st nine or so episodes of "The Courtship of Eddie's Father".</b></div>
<div class="p2">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b> Scene-specific musical moments lasting a few seconds to a minute or so.</b></div>
<div class="p1">
<b>And there's as many with Harry singing scene commentary like "careful with the coffee for your Dad" as there are scoring variations on "Best Friend" or "Little Cowboy" that are so completely Tiptonesque !!</b><br />

<b> The wonderful thing about Harry ( is Harry's a wonderful thing ! ) . . . </b></div>
<div class="p1">
<b>and how there's so many distinct career phases to suit yer' moods !!</b></div>
<div class="p1">
<b>But sometimes there's nothing like that "golden" period when Nilsson and Tipton worked together, and one month after the "Harry" album came out in August of `69, "The Courtship of Eddie's Father" premiered as a series. One could assume the sessions for both projects alternated to some degree.</b></div>
<div class="p2">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b>Series producer James Komack had a concept, and to directly quote Shipton's glorious biography:</b></div>
<div class="p2">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b> "Komack's highly original idea for the music was to have Nilsson sing occasional interludes, in the same way he had handled the closing credits on "Skidoo'".</b></div>
<div class="p1">
<b>He could move the story along, comment on the action, or simply set a scene"</b></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b> I doubt ( and would love to be proved wrong ) that the original master tapes for these sessions are likely to surface ( having remained, no doubt, in the hands of the original TV network ) and provide us with clean takes separate from any episode dialogue and sound effects . . but I'm okay with that.</b></div>
<div class="p2">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b> It ends up forming a slightly surreal context as spoken bits from scenes, and characters we weren't introduced to, weave in & out.</b></div>
<div class="p2">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b> I've also kept in mind, while assembling these, that some of the shortest bits of Nilsson singing a songlet, essentially new to us, fly by in as little as 5 or 6 seconds !</b></div>
<div class="p1">
<b>So the approach became more "dreamlike", and many of our new faves here return 2 or 3 times, like mini-movements in an impressionistic suite.</b></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b> As I said above, the series premiered Sept. of `69, a month after "Harry" had been released . . so we can imagine that spring & summer of that year saw Nilsson and Tipton alternating their attentions for both projects. Perhaps the seeds of "The Point !" were already planted as well ?</b></div>
<div class="p1">
<b> The overall "point" <i>here</i> is that I had already read that Nilsson's active contributions had been for "the first 9 episodes or so", and as I worked my way along thru episodes 8, 9 and 10, I found this was true. The Nilss-lines were beginning to peter out !!</b></div>
<div class="p1">
<b>A wonderful new variation from Harry on the phrase "best friend" still occurred in ep. 9 "Gentleman Friend", but as I checked ep. 10 "Any Friend of Dad's" just to make sure Harry had indeed left the building, I momentarily thought "<i>wait, here's some new vocals still !!</i>" . . . but it only took a moment to realize "<i>hey, that only sounds like Harry ! . . . Tipton has gotten someone doing Nilssonesque harmonies here !</i>"</b></div>
<div class="p1">
<b>So a few examples of that continuing "tribute" are included ( Eddie answers the door-bell thru "are you all grown-up ?" ), but we wrap this collection w/ the Moonshine Bandit himself in a Recap Suite !</b></div>
<div class="p2">
<b></b><br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b> If I stuck to my plan, and shared these with the FaceBook SchmaceBook Group after "The Popeye Demos", then I've employed the same wonderous effect within GarageBand that I did with Schmopeye . . . the Stereo Simulator !!</b></div>
<div class="p1">
<b> I am continually thrilled with how it seemingly "knows" to, say . . place an oboe slightly left, light percussion panned a bit right, and a nice subtle spread on a centered-vocal ! </b></div>

<b> <span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif;"> </span></b></div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">I get to present 4 different encounters, and I can even lay them out here in escalating order . . from "minor" to major . . <i>you'll</i> see !</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b><span style="color: cyan;">4</span></b> - <span style="color: #a2c4c9;">During the summers of `75 and `76, I was living in Greenwich Village.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> It was at some point during that second summer that my brothers Jeff & Jim came in to spend a day with me.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">They must've caught nearly the last bus home that night for I recall it was already dark and they was still with me as we were wandering up the bustling central "tourist-trap" that was West 8th Street, between 6th Ave and Macdougal St. . . . and just a block north from a corner of Washington Square Park.</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> And <i>why</i> do I vividly remember that we were just comin' up on Electric Lady Studios ? . . . because that was the point that Jeff or Jim said "Hey, that was Harry Nilsson !"</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">I turned in time to see a profile in the back of cab that was beginning to pull away. A face that, till then, I had only seen on album covers !</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">I also recall that I knew right then that if I'd seen him 2 seconds earlier, I would've called out "It's the </span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Moonshine Bandit</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> !!!"</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">"</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">...That's the Way It Is</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" had, of course, been recently released and "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Moonshine Bandit</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" was at the top of my "Heart's Fave List" . . </span><br />
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> </span><br />
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> ( </span><i style="color: #a2c4c9;">still </i><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">right up there, too ! )</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> It just hit me while tapping this out . . . who was Harry visiting in that famous studio ? . . . wait ! . . . was John putting finishing touches on "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Walls and Bridges</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" ?!</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">Nah, . . . that was the year before and at different studios like Record Plant.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> Well, whatever had him there at that moment, I'd probably just had my closest encounter and it was a near miss.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">Would I ever see another chance at such a convergence, or was I to be satisfied with merely a "brush-by' ?</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">I suppose it would'a been "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Easier For Me</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" to just "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Turn Out The Light</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" and go "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Home</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">"</span><br />
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> . . and you know </span><i style="color: #a2c4c9;">that's</i><span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Something True</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">".</span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">( Harry !! . . . "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Don't Leave Me</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" !! )</span></span></div>
<div class="p2">
<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b><span style="color: cyan;">3</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">- We're going to skip ahead chronologically to 1987 or so.</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> I'd already been delivering auto-parts for a year and 1/2 . . . all around Rockland County N.Y. . . . from Suffern in the west and east to Nyack.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">A town Nilsson was known to have a home in, right in that same time-frame, and was no doubt frequenting the local businesses !</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> So . . . I'm headin' down Route 303 towards the Nyack area, comin' up on an auto-body shop on my right. Out comes a wee sporty lookin' car lookin' to make a right and be in front of me. I certainly don't remember him cutting me off dramatically, yet I <i>was</i> close enough to see a familiar face </span><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">( I have now convinced my memory that he was driving a </span><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">convertible ! ) </span><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">. . and in the middle of the day this time too !</span><br />
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span>
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">Twas Harry again !! . . "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Daylight Had Caught Him</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" !</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> It would now seem that my sightings are sharing a theme around the "</span><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">...That's the Way It Is</span><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" album, but that ends here.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">I never bumped into him at a "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Zombie Jamboree</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">", and I never saw him literally "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Sail Away</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">". But now, at least, I've had more than "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Just One Look</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" !</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> As I followed along behind his car that afternoon, I knew this encounter had reached it's zenith.<br />What ? . . . was I going to pull up alongside him and look deranged as I yelled at his window something like "Hey Nilsson !, you kind'a cut me off back there</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> . . what'sa matter Harry ? . . . "</span><b><span style="color: #8e7cc3;">Are You Sleeping</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" ?!?!"</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> If this had been the 2nd encounter, it would've been frustrating to have another brief brush, but I'm telling these in order of "significant connection", so now we jump back to 1982 :</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b><span style="color: cyan;">2</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">- The next 2 . . the "Top 2" . . both occurred at Beatlefests in the early 80's.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">And I had to stop and figure out which BeatleFest came first.</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">Twas the Fest of `82, held at a "back-up" site in Port Chester, NY.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">There was some reason they couldn't book their regular Meadowlands Hilton, so this was a first.</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> At this point, Harry's Anti-Handgun campaign featured a kissing-booth. Selling kisses for a buck each.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">"</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">With a Bullet</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" was soon to be recorded, and the offer to record a song for a $500 donation would go to "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Judy</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" at this Fest.</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> I, and brothers Thom and Jim attended . . with Jim both taking a few snaps and recording highlights on his fancy schmancy Sony Walkman !</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">( yeah, that's right . . . Sony Schmony )</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> This particular encounter with the Nilssman was actually documented 4 different ways ! :</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">1- In written recollection -- just like the <i>other</i> times reported here.</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">2- In those couple snaps Jim took, with me getting a lovely hetero Nilsspeck on my cheek, and brother Thom exchanging a mighty handshake with our Harry hero.</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">3- Thru the cassette I'd thrown together of a range of his "stuff" and left the title-space for him to sign. </span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">( and of which he gosh-darn <u><b>did</b></u> ! )</span></div>

<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #9fc5e8;">(( </span><span style="color: #45818e;">and a quick note on that cassette-card, shown here: <br /> Not to focus attention, but my handwriting is so odd !! </span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #45818e;"> I was no doubt writing on an album cover balanced upon my<br /> knee, but I must've been slow and deliberate about it . .</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #45818e;"> . . overly conscious that Harry would be seeing it.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #45818e;"> It changes "style" every 3 letters !!</span><br />
<span style="color: #45818e;"> and my present Photoshop fiddling to clean-it-up has prob'ly </span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #45818e;"> only enhanced the stilted weirdness !</span><span style="color: #9fc5e8;"> ))</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<br />
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">4- And !! . . thru the audio Jim recorded, we hear the 3 of us working our way towards him on the line at the booth, and meeting him.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> At first, you hear him from a few feet back, talking about songbooks with an anxious fan . . . rather quickly, after I uninformedly tell Jim that the money is for a kiss . . . "Kiss Me, Harry !" . . . I believe Thom first gets his handshake, followed by me nervously explaining to the Famous </span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Spaceman</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> that the tape's "all you, I just left the title open . . scribble anything", when he asks me my darn-fool name.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> I guess about then is when I got my photo-documented cheek-peck.</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> You'll hear the agreeable Harry being told by ladies with cameras to "look up", and then "smile" . . . you'll hear Harry <i>make <b>change</b></i> !!</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">He then meets Jim ( who was no doubt still holding his camera )</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> In the even more exciting Part 2, Harry sings "a coup'la lines" ! . . . WPLJ DJ Jimmy Fink suggest </span><i style="color: #a2c4c9;">doing</i><span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> a couple lines !! . . Harry fulfills a quick request for "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">I'd Rather Be Dead</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">", and Jim informs him why he's back on the line for a 2nd time !</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> And the last 1/2 minute segment features me seeing off Thom and Jim.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">I was staying overnight in a room upstairs with my friend Tony, you see . . and the brothers were embarking on the 26 mile ride back home.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">It was <i>as</i> they stood in the doorway of departure that a Beatley singalong broke-out just behind us, appropriately declaring "there's nothing for me, so I will disappear".</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">The delighted "cackling at the uncanny" is mine.</span></div>
<div class="p2">

<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #9fc5e8;">(( </span><span style="color: #45818e;">In order to share this "You Are Here Cuz We Was T<u>here</u>" audio,<br /> I've obviously slapped-together a video where <span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Helvetica Neue'; font-size: 16px;">We Meet Nilsson.</span><br /> We see the 4 pics Jim snapped: Thom's handshake,</span><br />
<span style="color: #45818e;"> my Nilss-peck, plus . . . </span><br />
<span style="color: #45818e;"> and just about every decent pic I could find online !<br /> Mostly towards the end, I increasingly work in pics from the next Fest,</span><br />
<span style="color: #45818e;"> where Harry's red vinyl offering has appeared.</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #45818e;">But ! . . Jim didn't end-up in any of the The Fest pics . . . cuz he was </span><i style="color: #45818e;">taking</i><span style="color: #45818e;"> them !!</span><br />
<span style="color: #45818e;">So when we hear him going thru Harry's line a second time, I've opened on him in a pic that Thom must've taken back in Park Ridge . . as we prepared to head to The Fest.</span><br />
<span style="color: #45818e;">We're emulating that infamous shot from "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Magical Mystery Tour</span></b><span style="color: #45818e;">" . . . Jim's doing John, I'm as if Paul. Pal Tony is replicating George's subtle "flip-the-bird" gesture . . and we dragged non-attending brother Jeff outside real quick to Ringo it up ! </span><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">))</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<b><span style="color: cyan;">1</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">- It's onto the following Fest ( of March 83 ? ) where "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">With a Bullet</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" was being played on a continual loop. We were back at BeatleFest's normal home in the New Jersey Meadowlands Hilton.</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> I stood in line for the chance to shake Harry's hand & make a contribution to his anti-handgun campaign.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">"Bullet" was full-blast blasting as I leaned in and found myself bellowing at Harry that "I'm actually a DJ at a station in north-east Jersey and I play stuff from your entire career span". ( true story ! )</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> This was deeply satisfying in & of itself . . . letting Harry know that someone out there in the media was as likely to be playing "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Old Bones</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" or "</span><span style="color: #b4a7d6;"><b>Pretty Soon There'll Be Nothing Left</b> . .</span><span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> " as they were to play "</span><b><span style="background-color: black; color: #b4a7d6;">Without Her</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" or "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Without You</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" ! . . ..</span><br />
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> Or . . . you </span><i style="color: #a2c4c9;">know</i><span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> . . . some other well-known "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">One</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">".</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> But he turned to someone in his "posse" for a quick look and then went about writing something down on a small triangular scrap of paper . . which he then handed to me.</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">It said "701"</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> I stood there with stupefaction adding itself to the surreal state one goes into while bellowing at your idols.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> I look at Harry wondering if this was the deli-line number he'd call out when he was ready to slice me some olive-loaf, and a friend next to me had to say "That's his room number".</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">"oh . . . I . . . OH !!!"</span></div>

<div class="p2">
<br /></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">Harry either thought I was implying a requested interview, or perhaps he <i>himself </i>was proposing such a fine idea !</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> I may have bowed several times like a wind-up idiot as I stumbled away and proceeded to spend an hour or two floating around the Fest wondering if this was something I was ready to do justice.</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">Did anyone have a recorder ? Would I take notes furiously ?!</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">Would we hit it off to the point where I awoke 3 days later to find Ringo asking me not to sleep on his towels like that ?</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> The inevitable reality here is that once I saw that he'd closed up the "Bullet-Booth" for awhile and was away, I bravely ventured up to Room 701 only to find a "Do Not Disturb" sign hung on the door.</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">Well . . . I couldn't just "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Ambush</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" him now, </span><i style="color: #a2c4c9;">could</i><span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> I ?</span><br />
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">That certainly wouldn't be my "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Best Move</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" . . .</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">He'd prob'ly just tell me to go "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Jump Into The Fire</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" !</span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">And that would be so heart breaking . . . why, "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">I'd Rather Be Dead</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" !</span><br />
<br />
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;">( I can just imagine him saying "now who the hell is knockin'</span><br />
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">At My Front Door</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" ?? . . . what ?, I "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Gotta Get Up</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" when I'm</span><br />
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> in the "</span><b><span style="color: #b4a7d6;">Bath</span></b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" </span><b style="color: #a2c4c9;">??!</b><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">" )</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> So that's how <i>that</i> ended, but it takes nothing from the coolness of his reaction there at the booth. I still have the hand-written room-number of course. . . . as seen above !</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> A wonderful exchange, and 4 or 5 years later Harry would challenge me to a </span><span style="color: #a2c4c9;">friendly</span><span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> informal game of chicken on Route 303 !</span></div>
<div class="p2">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"><br /></span></div>
<div class="p1">
<span style="color: #a2c4c9;"> I have these "Close Encounters of The Four Kinds" to treasure forever . . . every bit of music and <i>all</i> the fan-stuff that continues to come out and make it all seem new <i>&</i> renewed again . . . and the ever deepening community of fellow Harry-Heads to share with.</span></div>

I'd been on the fence about being on the verge of it fer' <b><i>years</i></b> already ! Then it took an increasingly urgent <i><b>series</b></i> of events and the need for a linkable post where I could html in a Paypal Donate Button to push me off that fence . . . you see ?<br />
<br />
Well . . . here you can see <a href="http://dmrofatoz.blogspot.com/2014/02/a-public-drive-to-stay-alive-atoz_18.html"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">Post #1</span></a>.<br />

I just wish I'd done it while Blogs still looked like my super-pal <a href="http://groovytimewithdjuseo.blogspot.com/"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="color: cyan;">DJ Useo's</span></a>.<br />
Hey ! . . maybe they still do ? . . . but I sure couldn't get it that way.<br />
<br />
Setting up the Blog in general was a succession of snaps ! ---- <i><b>easy</b></i> !<br />
Trying to get a custom-background to fit completely and be fully visible ? --- <b>Ha</b> <b>!</b><br />
<i style="font-weight: bold;">Hours </i>of Googling advice from all over the Web-World resulted in quite a few differently sized versions Photoshopped and sitting in the folder.<br />

Here's the full intended image, if <b><u>this</u></b> even works !!<br />
