I am learning so much about a man who I remember as the most sympathetic character on Deadwood. Didn't even recognize him in that first video!

Oscar Robertson For decades he was the only man to ever average a triple-double in an NBA season. Russell Westbrook recently did it in 3 consecutive seasons.

Also Robertson won NBA championships, unlike Russell Westbrook.

I had never heard the term 'loon' applied to anything other than someone who is crazy as in lunatic or Canadian 'loonies' which I assumed came from the same origins. Loons are in fact adorable and the mascot of the USA getting destroyed by its own hubris is very apt.

Loons are both beautiful and terrifying. When you're camping by a lake in northern MN, they sing all night. They have a very creepy call. It's haunting.

I only spent 10 days canoeing up there, but I miss the loons to this day. I'm glad I travelled while I was young.

Prescription painkillers are the loving worst. When I worked in vital records I can't even tell you how many death certificates I saw which listed the cause of death as "mixed drug toxicity", which is almost always talking about prescription drugs. The scientist who finds a way to treat chronic pain without opioids will save as many lives as Jonas Salk. Prince was basically murdered though. His doctor deserved jail time, not a loving $4k fine and "discipline" from the medical board. Imagined has a new favorite as of 22:02 on May 21, 2020 |

I don't think there are many that question his musical abilities. What he did with those powers is a different matter. I do like Let's Go Crazy, that's a song I can appreciate with my caveman sensibilities.

Yeah, Prince was a musical prodigy but most of his work didn’t utilize his talent nearly as much as it could have. That’s why most people don’t realize how good he was.

Most of his videos were him just kinda dancing around with a guitar and playing a little bit here and there so I don't think many people realized the scope of his abilities

I don't think it's that his music didn't use all of his talent, it's just that Prince recorded so much stuff that it's hard to get to grips with all of it, and he was definitely one of those artists who put things down as fast as possible and then moved on to the next thing instead of polishing just a few of the best things. He said in interviews that his favorite of his own songs was always the most recent one he wrote. And Sturgeon's Law still applies to geniuses. What is amazing when you think about it is if it's exhausting as a LISTENER to absorb his entire catalog, what was it like to be the guy MAKING all of that? I believe it's documented that he recorded over 1,000 songs. Even if 90% are meh, that's 100 fantastic songs. His best albums are when he was with a major label that forced him to only put out the best bits and polish what he put out. He famously HATED that and it seems like after he was independent he released every brain fart he had. So the rest of his catalog is messy, but there are still diamonds in it. Right after he died I spent a few weeks listening to his entire official output and most of the bootlegs I could find. He definitely had more guitar hero tracks than "Let's Go Crazy" and "Purple Rain". Here's a few: https://youtu.be/lk5avOf5tqY https://youtu.be/mY1OnKfDJPE https://youtu.be/4wxea_BdIcM A lot of times you don't notice his guitar because he's running it through an effect that makes it sound like something else, ala: https://youtu.be/_jCuroTbqBI Or: https://youtu.be/szs4bWoul8w And one of my personal favorites: https://youtu.be/kIjZwhHuB5s Imagined has a new favorite as of 17:13 on May 22, 2020 |

Supposedly he has another 2-3 hours of music that was found in the studio in his house. I doubt we'll ever get to hear it though

Buckethead did something similar. The Pikes series (of EPs around 30 minutes long) was started when he was hospitalized for heart arrhythmia and realized that he could die at any time, so he wanted to put out as much music as possible. He reached the point where he was releasing multiple Pikes a week and is currently at 283, which means he's got over 479 appearances between his own work and his work with others. Granted, Buckethead's entire shtick is being one of the greatest guitarists in history, but a lot of the Pikes have very similar sounds and are practically interchangeable.

He said 'you can take that back to the house'. He said 'none of that's good'."
