It's Not The Humdity It's The HEAT

    Feels like! I'm sure there are thousands of blog rants about the "feels like" index that's been foisted upon us by weather reportage outlets I'm not opposed to the concept just could they be a bit cleverer like it's 95 degrees today but it "feels like the 9Th ring of the hot hells hottest oven" or something like that rather than it feels like 104 cause to everyone it's going to feel a bit different like to me it feels more like 106 not 104 and my mail person said yesterday it felt like 102 when the weather station said it only felt like 98 so there ya go enough of that

    For a few days last week it felt like one of the great blogs onemansafari was kaput but the author was just feeling more like happy palace and giving us all a lesson in impermanence which was good but the brother is glad OMS has decided to keep on pointing us to and sharing great stuff Thanks

    If your in Brooklyn and need/want a healthy dose of Power Pop Surefire one of our fave raves is playing at South Paw Tonight Wednesday July 27th Night at 8pm they're only getting better check the tunes at there site for a lift

    Found this Philip K Dick bit from Weirdo drawn by Stechem' himself at Coudal this AM I'm a big fan of all four and you might be too.

that's it for now just a little bit of nonsense I'll be back on the regular soon enough with some interesting developments stay cool and stay tuned

The Return Of Broman™ or The Broman Files 2005

    If you've never seen a Dude Broman™ Film your not alone, made on a shoestring budget rife with production problems mostly stemming from way over inflated egos, booze and god knows what else.A bad, no really really bad distribution deal didn't help maters much and pretty much ensured that they'd rarely be shown outside of a few select Triple X theaters odd because they're not X rated material at all not even a little bit and there is about 12 of them (and of course the rumored 13Th but that's another story all together) the titles of the films give a glimpse at there profundity or lack there of.
    "Something Stinks" , "Flower Power and Gunpowder", "The Missing Teeny Bopper", "You Don't Know From Trouble" "Destination Mozambique" and on and on you'll get the full movie titles in the tracks I'm sharing with ya's anyway so i won't waste space here.
    Dude Broman™ made his film debut in the early 80's with a film set in the 60's "Flower Power & Gunpowder a possible reaction to the phoniness of the era and blah film stuff that was happening (Si-fi was hitting it but hard boiled detective films were in short supply Fletch and Remo etc..) there has never been nor will there probably ever be a retrospective of his work as most of the original films were destroyed in a suspicious fire, seems Dude had a way with he ladies and sometimes things got out of hand and one night several years ago an old flame decided to flambe Dude's storage locker wiping out decades of work and original prints some video transfers had been made but none have the sound on them so we're working on bring these beauties back to life but it's gonna take a long long time.
    As Director, Writer,Producer and Star as well as Name sake of the films Dude only gave it up in the music department because other than his own short lived Lounge singer "entertainer" career Dude knew little or nothing about music so he allowed his old college buddy Mr. Jerry Finegold to do the scores Mr. Finegold wasn't the most proficient composer but he knew a good beat or song when he heard it so he mimicked, covered or out and out stole some great soundtrack stuff here is the first 33 tracks of Dude Broman-Public Guy Private Dick-Selected Cuts From The Original Soundtracks (65 tracks total) it took a lot of cajoling to get Mr. Finegold to let me do this so I hope the endless nights of boozing where not for naught and that you all enjoy them as much as i do I'll put up the second half of the tracks in a few days and then leave them all up for a while......

Come Ride The Future Baby

When I was 9 that's what i thought the Byrd's were singing in the Lear Jet song wasn't until i got a set of headphones at 14 i realized they were sing "Come ride the Lear Jet baby" when i think about this i often wonder how many other things in my life went misinterpreted or didn't hear fully the first time around.
     Which has nothing what so ever to do with this post or Record "psychic" Maurice Woodruff gives his predictions for the year 1962 now as you can see on the cover the predictions were guaranteed 79% accurate or you could send the record back and recive a Hundred bucks now in 1962 a hundred bucks wasn't to shabby so i wonder how many people sent it back and how the guarantors proved he was right with backward spin because after listening to this i didn't get one substantial (or substantiated) prediction but it really doesn't matter as the action packed hyped up vocals on it suck ya in and the next thing you know it is the future because 40 minutes have passed, Time well spent? you decide..... i predict you'll either love this, hate it or feel nothing about it...
