6921. Tim Curry - Paradise Garage

https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/812jnHtk5BL._SX522_.jpg
From: Fearless; Year: 1979; Genre: Glam Rock
Damn, we lost another legend within a day of one another. Tim Curry is an actor and performer that I admire a lot. There are too many roles I loved over the years to list; but suffice it to say: the man was brilliant at his trade.
Ever since 2012 he's been wheelchair bound due to a severe stroke and a variety of other maladies since, so it is probably a nice release for the suffering acting legend. He will be really missed even with his extensive film, stage, musical, and other endeavours he had worked on.
Anyway, some might not have known that Tim Curry had an actual recording career outside of the film and stage musicals that he performed on. I believe he recorded a total of three records from 1978 to 1981 with Fearless being the one in the middle. This was one of the singles from it; I am not too sure of the overall success of the record and this track, but from wot I've read he did score his best single from this album, although it was not this song in particular. Also, the vast majority of the material was original and most of those Tim Curry had writing credit.

Theme Picks

-
This list contains links to my theme weeks and other odd themes that I sometimes do. I highly doubt that it is complete; as I remember/rediscover other themes that I have done in the past I will add them to this list. I guess I should've made this list a long time ago, it would've saved a lot of hassle. My Theme Weeks (in chronological order): Canadian artist theme week - A week of songs from Canadian artists. Truck driving song theme week - A week of picks that featured song about or related to truck driving. Music I like that others I know do not like theme week - Kind of self-explanatory. "The Five" workweek theme - One song from each member of a group of Russian composers known as "The Five:" Mily Balakirev, Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, Modest Mussorgsky, César Cui, and Alexander Borodin. Eric Clapton theme week - A week of songs that feature Eric Clapton. "Moon" song theme week - A week of songs with "Moon" in the ti...

Open Letter To The Complete Lowlife Idiot(s) Who Filed a Copyright Infringement

-
Today I received notice that a blog post, number 100 to be exact , allegedly infringed upon someone's copyright. I have not been given any other information other than just that. What is odd here is that no one Else's actual "intellectual property" is even on my blog; I am unsure as to what it is referring to because everything in the post was either written by me, therefore my intellectual property, or is linked to another website. I am assuming that they are either mad about my links to the YouTube video with the song, (which belongs to someone Else's Google YouTube account), or perhaps the album artwork, which was hosted by another website. SINCE NO INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY NOT BELONGING TO ME EXISTS IN THE POST IN QUESTION OR ON MY BLOGGER ACCOUNT , I fully intend to file a counter-claim. Whatever the case I have decided to temporarily removed the links to the song on YouTube from the post in question. To these idiots with no life: I hope some day you...
