Peter, Paul and Mary - Peter, Paul and Mary

True story. Peter Yarrow, the short creepy looking guy on this album cover (not the tall creepy looking guy, that's Paul), molested a 14-year-old girl in his hotel room in 1970. Then in 2010 he performed "the Colonoscopy Song" live on a morning news show on CBS.

Now, back in 1962, my dad had no way of predicting either of those things.

But that's still no excuse for not realizing how fucking awful this goddam album was.

I mean god dammit.

GOD DAMMIT!

Jean-Pierre Rampal - Flute Concertos of Eighteenth Century Paris

So my mom plays the flute. By all accounts she's pretty good but I don't know if you can trust those accounts because most of them are from her. I remember her busting out the flute and playing once in a while when I was a kid. Not often though. Guess she was too busy.

At any rate, know how you get two flutists to play in tune? Shoot one.
