In Year “72” following UH tours thru PA, Ken Hensely and Dave Byron captivated us with tales of Wizards and Demons, the eternal battle between darkness and light. Hensely extrapolates on the nature of man’s incessant desire on the track “Blind Eye”. Great deep dive into the unexpected philosophical nature of one of Britain’s most classic esoteric rock bands. enjoy ---

A 200 million dollar oops. What a spectacular audacious ostentatious insanely impractical lonely house. With NO soundroom!!! I’ve seen some pretty amazing luxury home tours - some beautiful Vegas ones but this house, to me, has no character or soul whatsoever. The youtube tour is interesting (if you can put up with the annoying pompous interviewer) but the developer even _sounds_ like a desperate idea/salesman who has gotten himself in WAY over his head and some deadlines are approaching… A little sad, but not too much sympathy from me seeing as I am crawling under my old farmhouse repairing 50 year old plumbing pipes that froze & burst last week from the coldest snap I’ve ever experienced… 😠 Washing dishes in the g’dang bathroom sink… ya, good times. ---
