who is Bob Lefsetz?

Welcome to the 21st century 2007 2011 2016. Wherein the youngsters get it and the oldsters are scratching their heads.

Women are specialists in this, hating you after loving you, while you’re still involved. Men eventually get there, but it takes much longer, usually after you’ve broken up. And it’s especially bad when you’re trying to please them, it almost works against you, you evidence weakness and they pounce all over it.

lefsetz and brooks should do like a super team-up

I don't think anybody in the younger generation relies on "Rolling Stone," if they read it at all.

It's probably unsavable.

But first they came for the record stores.

Now they've come for "Rolling Stone."

As for the vinyl revival… There’s an over-trumpeted phenomenon if there ever was one. It’s like saying there’s a furniture revival because of “Antiques Roadshow.”

Ummmm... Did people stop buying furniture and I missed it? Or so they just sit on the floor and listen to Spotify

Want to get ahold of me? I'm free after midnight, in the morning I'm unavailable, or as I tell everybody who wants to have a hit and run meeting, that's what breakfast is for, NO! As in I NEVER go to breakfast, it wasn't until my nutritionist insisted that I even ATE breakfast, I don't remember my mother ever waking up and making it for me, I believed it was superfluous, except every once in a while my dad did come home with glazed donuts.

concur w/upper mississippi, Lef's wandered off into a pretty dark corner of his infinite Self

dude is missing out on breakfast, one of the best meals imo

"Want to get ahold of me? I'm free after midnight, in the morning I'm unavailable": Bob Lefsetz or The Weeknd?

Lef can't feel his face
His tech industry disruption fortune cookie bullshit artist analog Seth Godin has been getting weird as well

Where is Adele today? There’s zero buzz.

also, paul mccartney, pls call lefsetz, stat. he has some thoughts on how to promote your next album.

Paul McCartney could have a scavenger hunt in Liverpool, both physical and virtual, testing people’s knowledge of the Beatles and his solo career.

it's a shame that adele didn't call lefsetz before her career went down the toilet.

where is adele today?

*goes to billboard charts*

well, the chart highlights list her as "greatest gainer" having gone up to #9, and as their "pacesetter"

so her album's stalled but it's going... up the charts?

that mccartney bit is primo lefsetz

Of course Megyn Kelly is attractive. More than that. Not the toppermost, but way damn up there, even if she was aided by plastic surgery. But that does not mean she has talent, that does not mean she deserves accolades, that does not mean her coronation sits well with so many of us.

not the toppermost!

but way damn up there!

And we scored this interview a zero. Maybe a two on an absolute scale.

And the American way is the true believer rugged individual, who goes off into the wilderness to make something of themselves, not beholden to usual strictures, an inspiration for the rest of us.

paging horatio alger

dying @ maybe a two on an absolute scale

guess there's still a possibility that megyn kelly's attractiveness on an absolute scale is in fact the toppermost

the absolute toppermost!

she's a melody to a symphony by strauss

is that an absolute melody or just a regular one?

neil strauss?

henceforth rating albums on a scale from zero to two on an absolute scale. the beatles are two, taylor swift is one, everybody else is zero

People in the UK are pissed off with having

So I would say you don't really understand the British frustration
It's nothing like the changes in the music biz.
I won't go in about it because that's just how it is Period.

The fuck...I hope that is real

It is -- Lefsetz Mailbag!

I'd like some of that Hillary speech money.

Used to be about the music. Used to be a great track was known by everybody. Used to be your image was secondary to your tunes.

Not anymore!

crazy newfangled MTV videos ruined everything IMO

Have you heard? Have you heard? Trump is gonna beat Hillary because of Twitter - Bob Lefsetz

This is so over the top...Here are some excerpts

This should have been bad. Seventies act far beyond its years playing to a multitude that didn’t care in a faraway land where no discerning eyes are present. But that wasn’t the case, this show was FANTASTIC! INCREDIBLE! ASTOUNDING! THE BEST OF THE YEAR!

In this case in far-off Pomona, a sea of people you see nowhere else, bad bodies, various ethnicities, only an hour from L.A. but in mind-set and visuals as far away as Iowa or Mississippi.

....I’M TINGLING AS I WRITE THIS! I IMMEDIATELY JUMPED TO MY FEET AND THRUST MY ARM IN THE AIR! It was like it was still the seventies and music was the most important medium in the world and fully worth living for. This was a show where you didn’t pull out your cell phone unless it was to take a photo, you didn’t want to take your eyes off the band, you felt when they left the stage you might not get another chance.

And it wasn’t just me. The middle-aged women next to me were twisting and turning their bodies, singing every word at the top of their lungs. The Latino men in front of me were doing the same thing. The fat white guy to the right, he was getting more exercise than he probably got in a month. The assembled multitude was gyrating like rock music was the most important thing in the world, the elixir of life, they were taking it all in AND GIVING IT ALL BACK!.... They get no love. The punksters and hipsters at the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame pooh-pooh them, lauding fraudsters like Patti Smith and Joan Jett when it’s groups like this that are the heart of rock and roll. And I’ve been to see Kiss, but the mania for Bad Company was bigger. And I love the guys in Rush, but this audience was half women, and they weren’t dragged by their boyfriends, THEY NEEDED TO BE THERE!

It’s almost like they don’t exist. No one ever talks about Bad Company. But here they are, in plain sight, and they’re LEGENDS!

so basically he took a story from a right-wing website about a trump rally and substituted the name "bad company" for "trump," yes?

now we're talking about mick ralphs here a legend in his own right

Trump rally wouldn't have Latino men at it. Lefsetz always takes shots at "bad bodies" and a "fat white guy" without ever offering any self-deprecating comments about his own appearance.

The punksters and hipsters at the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame

Ha

fuckin' mott the hoople and bad company? there you have it.

Ralphs wasn't there alas. He's been replaced though they use his songs

You see there were TWO lead guitarists. Howard Leese of Heart and Rich Robinson of the Black Crowes. And not only did they riff off each other, they played in unison… We went there to relive what once was and we didn’t know they were gonna reinvent it and push the envelope into the future.

i saw bad co. a few years ago at jones beach, on one of those rare tours where mick ralphs joined them. (spied ian hunter heading toward the backstage area, but alas no on-stage appearance.) they were...really good! dude can sing. i don't remember any tingling or whatnot, but i don't regret going.

i also remember some brooklyn street fair where simon kirke sat in with a local cover band for a few songs. even he makes a big difference!

P.P.P.S And if you still think Luke Bryan is just a pretty boy who keeps his catch in his Yeti... Check the emotion, the boy meets girl and tries to keep her story of "Play It Again," my favorite track of the decade,

There's "Frampton Comes Alive," the legendary seller.

"Live At Leeds," considered to be the best, even though I think it suffers for lack of crowd noise.

And the unheralded "Five Man Acoustical Jam," if you don't know this Tesla live set you're in for a treat, then again, you're probably best off knowing their material.

And then there's "Joe Dirt Car," the BoDeans' 1995 double CD package.

five man acoustical jam and the cover of "signs" was Tesla's second hit after "love song"!!!!! fuck u lef!!!! it's very heralded as far as unplugged Tesla ablums go
