That's fantastic, Rockkid. Where'd you find that anyway? I loved that show ... may have to put it on my TiVo wish list ... in case Sci-Fi decides to run it again. I just loved that hard-boiled character McGavin played so well. Great character actor. it's available on DVD. and i've been catching it here and there on the sci-fi channel. they've been running day-long broadcasts of certain series, not as any special occasion, or holiday programming, but just because, i guess. the original battlestar galactica, roar, and the night stalker, that i've seen, and probably a bunch more. |

Ken got his first Mastiff soon after watching that TV show ... The beast slept right in his bed !! LOL Phil! What's funny is ... my mom had gotten me a big stuffed dog when I was about four years old ... and which stayed on my bed for many years. The dog was obviously a mastiff type dog -- a mastiff or a St. Bernard -- and I called him Brutus (after the Great Dane in the the Disney movie The Ugly Dachsund). My family had a male Dachsund when I was very young, then a Bassett Hound, and finally a female Dachsund for the majority of my youth. That last Dachsie was the one we would have had when I saw The Night Stalker the first time ... and yes, she slept in my bed! The mastiff does too ... when I let her. And I was *this* close to naming my current pit puppy "Buffy" (as in The Vampire Slayer) when I got her in '98. Fortunately, cooler heads prevailed ... The Dane generally sleeps on the floor right next to the bed, and the mastiff and the pit bull argue over who gets to sleep at the foot of the bed, with the loser getting the floor on the other side. No vampires are gonna get me -- not w/o making a hell of a racket, anyway! |

Naw, it's a great picture of one the greatest players ever...who UNfortunately played for the hated Bruins.
I still remember Terry O'Riley beating the living SNOT out of him during a Sunday afternoon game that CBS broadcast way back when...and Orr asked for it.

The pics are from THIS incredible sounding Hendrix set...
Stages
[BOX SET] [LIVE]
Jimi Hendrix
Audio CD (November 12, 1991)
Number of Discs: 4
Label: Warner Bros / Wea
ASIN: B000008GI2
Awaiting Reissue..., August 18, 2004
Reviewer: Typo-typer - See all my reviews
This is the ultimate Hendrix box set. It contains about four hours of live material. The following concerts: Stockholm '67, Paris '68, San Diego '69 and Atlanta '70 are each presented in full and also in very good sonic quality. Each one is a jaw-dropping performance, to say the least. There's one from each year he toured, you can sort of get an idea of how Jimi's stage-approach changed from when he started touring as the "Jimi Hendrix Experience" to when he was calling his band the "Cry of Love Band." All these concerts were put out of print when the Hendrix family took control of all the Jimi Hendrix material in the mid-90s and formed the MCA "Experience Hendrix LLC." The people in charge decided that there were too many CDs already in print and many misrepresented the material. Especially the various releases of studio cuts, like Midnight Lightning and Voodoo Soup where some of the songs had posthumously overdubbed drum and bass parts for some reason. Therefore, they put all the Hendrix CDs out of print to start with a clean catalogue. So far, we've seen them release Jimi's concerts from Woodstock, Fillmore East (only a selection from all four shows albeit, but a good selection), Isle of Wight, a more complete BBC Sessions, the second set of Berkeley (why not the first set? nobody knows) and of course the studio material: South Saturn Delta and First Rays. The concerts that they put out of print will be released later (it's not a question of "if"), but as it is, Hendrix fans must buy this stuff used. On the other hand, you can buy new copies of many rare Hendrix comcerts, mail order, from daggerecords.com and purplehazerecords.com (even the Stockholm concert from Stages). Stages can be had for anywhere between forty and sixty dollars on ebay or Amazon. Amazon sellers are charging too much currently.
- as reviewed on Amazon, for a set I've got coming from a local library...I hope to god it's not trashed.
