Kreen-Akrore (Updated 2x)


Been way too much angst and rancor recently at The Blue Book's Comments Department.

I always intended to publish any comment that wasn't profane or obscene, even if it meant dumping a load on my shoulders, but ya'll need to quit it and move on.

Maybe I'm Amazed

This song was featured on The Playlist the other night; what amazes me is that Paul McCartney did the whole album by himself and played every instrument, except for backup vocals and keyboard performed by his first wife, Linda.

McD could do it, but I sure couldn't.

The next song is Kreen-Akrore. There's no lyrics, so there should be no suggestion that I'm -signaling dolphins- in the North Sea with secret messages.

I like the drum solo.

"
The Kreen-Akrore tribe is probably the most negatively influenced by the West of all of the tribes discussed here. They live near the Tapajós River, and are known as the “tribe that hides from man.” This is because they were once attacked by explorers and were so scared of their guns that they hid from other humans until they finally made contact with the West in 1973. However, foreign diseases killed off half of their tribe, making them weary of the outside world once again. Now, though, they have built new villages and are once again thriving in Amazonia."

That man in the picture looks just like Fez from that 70s show.
