Wait. Are the Millenial Socialists or whatever coming to destroy our physical media? I need to know what Boomer hysteria I’m supposed to be concerned about.
Young people, transgenders, Spotify, brown people, smartphones, gays, youtube, libruhls, Star Wars, women, Google and the whole fucking internet, people who are not actually fascists.
Now get hysterical.

JFC that thread about the new Beach Boys release (quick summary: a pretty generous but musically uninteresting digital-only compilation of 70+ unreleased songs/mixes from a fairly interesting and creative time in the band's history, after Smile but before Brian Wilson mentally checked out, plus another collection of four or five uninspired gigs from 1968) is a fucking trainwreck.
There's a guy on thread from The Beach Boys' research team, who's helped dig in the archives and compile it who is what I'd consider an 'expert', and has specifically said that the record company considers it a niche release and they have a lot of resistance putting it out at all, but all anyone in Shiteville can think about is how they've been gypped for not getting it on CD, and wah wah wah. It's hard to know who to feel less sorry for in this ridiculous exchange.
Pool_OfTears:
Rick Bartlett: Pool_Of_Tears shares his pain: Rick Bartlett doubles down: EdwinM and Rick complain about how the rappers are spoiling it for everyone:
EdwinM mentions Mike Love, which sets off a few SHiTE alarms:
Now it gets fun...aoxomoxoa calls out Rick for his bootlegging suggestion:
Catbirdman gets in on the act too: So does dustybooks:
But Rick is the defender of the little man, and knows what he's talking about:
EdwinM backs him up (extra points for 'beancounters'):
Someone suggests he can get the same music, for free on Spotify. He's OUTRAGED:
aoxoxoxoxmoaoxmaoawhatever takes further umbrage at Rick's retort:
Rick Bartlett knows the system and endorses this:
aomoxomoxmoamoxamoxamxaoamxao:
Rick goes for the jugular, ends up eating his own shit:
aomomosmomxomxaom gets a good one in:
Rick hits those balls even harder:
Uh oh, the Mike Alarm has gone off in some dusty basements. Enter SP Honeybunch:
But oldsurferdude, whose entire SHiTE oeuvre is literally a never ending screed against Mike Love (or 'Myke LuHV' as he calls him) displays how much of a hard-on he actually has for Mike:
This goes on for pages. All because someone didn't put out a CD or two of some second-rate outtakes and the old men are confused by technology. I even regret spending money on the downloads of these things because they're mostly worthless.

Capitol should press 10,000 for the diehards? Delusional! I doubt this gets 10,00 listens on free streaming services, let alone sell a fraction of that even if it was in seedee.
I can’t wait until Rhino decides to pull the plug on physical Monkees archive releases and starts doing those as download and streaming only. So much shaking and crying to come.

Taj plays the cruise ship circuit now? That's depressing. None of the rich fucks who takes cruises have a clue who he is, that's why he "barely" sold 20 copies.

I just LOL'd at the words "Blues Cruise". Imagine, all the hardships and battles those blues guys went thru... to have their music played to a bunch of drunk boomers who think the unplugged version of Layla is blues.

Is there room for any passengers with all those performers?

To be fair, I've got both of Margo Price's albums, and Nikki Lane's last one and they're fairly listenable. Surprised they're so far up the billing considering Price is very outspokenly liberal.
