two years pass...

He was a bad ass. I once roamed the same isle with him at a blockbuster video in hollywood, thinkin' "dang, it's borris the spider!". I don't know what he rented...

Also saw the Who live at the Oakland Coliseum during the late eightees, two nights in a row. They meant a lot. He meant a lot. And GODDAMN he could play...

Or Jonh, for that matter.

Double standards at work. If I was discovered checked out from a heart attack after a cocaine fueled session with a hooker, people would probably think I was a bit..like...sleazy

Why John Entwistle was totally dislexic and that's sorta ironical.

― Bobby Peru (Bobby Peru), Saturday, 26 March 2005 09:49 (twenty-one years ago)

Dyslexic, ironic.

Oh, nevermind, I get the joke now.

How is his first solo album? Saw it on the cheap and was curious. Looks like a Get Back reissue or something...

I read that he wanted to put his version of "Cinnamon Girl" on the album, but was convinced instead to write his own tune. Hence, "My Size."

It's a surprising record; definitely not what you'd expect from someone known mainly as a virtuoso bassist.

I'm sold. Thanks yall.

Solo albums are now up on streaming in shiny deluxe versions w/the bonus tracks & such courtesy of Edsel, who are also handling physical releases.
