So their 50’s recordings are ok to dismiss?

Said it before, gonna say it again. Beatles, Apple re-re-re-re-re-re-re-releases!!!!!!!!!!!!! paul-mccartney

Got all excited about this Beatles 1 CD/LP being 5.1 Surround, and now I read the fine print, not all the songs are in 5.1, just a “new stereo remix”.  Another remix, golly geez, more money. apple01

It reads: new stereo and 5.1 Dolby Digital and DTS HD surround audio mixes.

 

– Now as far as the Blu Ray goes, ok that sounds good, since it will be in 4K clarity, and as some of you know, Beatles on Blu Ray have been bootlegged for years now.

I’m torn or whether to buy it or not! a-hard-days-night-ringo-14

 My sis said, “Everything after Help is just stupid, it doesn’t make any sense.” I’ve heard the opposite as well. “Nothing before (name the album) is worth listening to because they were just a boy band then.”

:O Blasphemy, if The Beatles had broken up after Help ! I wouldn’t be as a big a fan of them as I am now. The really “amazing, mind-blowing” stuff came in Rubber Soul and beyond.

Also a******s who feel the need to drive right behind me, see those plates on my car right? The big fat L-sign, that means ‘learner’ if my car stalls or I have to brake suddenly and you smash into my car it’s all your damn fault for being up my tailpipe- ya eejit.

That is filthily brilliant, alas I share the car with my mam (when she doesn’t want to drive her jeep ahdn_paul_01) and I don’t think she’d appreciate it.

I like this one

Stupid warnings on packaging! blue-meanie

The packet I am eating from right now (ooo! am I in the wrong thread?) informs me: “Allergy Warning: This product may contain nuts”.

What the feck!!! You’re kidding me, aren’t you? “…may contain nuts”? It’s a packet of Roasted & Salted Peanuts!!! blue-meanie If it doesn’t contain nuts, you ain’t done well on naming your product, and I want a refund!!! And if someone buys a packet of Roasted & Salted Peanuts without realising it may contain nuts, and tucks into them without realising they’re nuts by how they look, they deserve their Darwin Award.

You want to know what really needs a warning – those snacks some places put out on the bar: “May contain urine”! Now that would be a helpful warning!

It could be the other way. Warning: Contains the actual product that were selling and not a artificial substitute pretending to be what you are paying for.

It may be to stop being sued – “It may very well be eggs but it didn’t say about an allergic reaction to eggs on the box so i want $21,000,000.”

Most likely it, compo-culture gone mad!

I remember some wan suing Aer Lingus  for $1m because her “expensive diamond engagement ring” went missing from her suitcase which was in the hold. Well if it had so much value why didn’t you wear it or put it in your carry-on, ya eejit!

The courts ended up throwing out her case because she accepted a payment of $1682 instead a-hard-days-night-ringo-13

Songbooks in hard copy, or websites supposed to be showing the guitar/piano chords used in a song where, once you get out your guitar, put on the song, and try the chords out, turn out to be not merely wrong, but maddeningly half-right, half-wrong.

One particular song I couldn’t find anywhere, so I actually paid like $7.00 for the chords to just that one song (“You Are On My Mind” by Chicago), and even that official musical score I had to pay money for was inaccurate in maddeningly complex ways. 

I’m not done yet…

A couple of years ago, after being unable for years and years to locate the music for “Tequila Mockingbird” on the Ramsey Lewis album of the same name, I finally put out a craigslist ad saying I’d pay anyone who knows how to hear and transcribe chords.  I got two offers, both of whom I paid, but again, same problem: maddeningly inaccurate in subtle ways…

I think @meanmistermustard meant to ask @Pineapple Records and not you @Expert Textpert.
