A big welcome John! Great to have you here.

Your ingenuity always impress. Like the wheels you put on your guitar cases. ?

Hi Lisa, excuse this old thread revival, but thought it worth raising today to point out the incredible early access video released today gives “Once Upon A Time”, your most hard worked piece on the album, a very worthy and proper launch pad for this great song to be presented to the world.
The video brilliantly bridges the spirit of the 60’s to the present and will let the current generation discover for themselves the beauty of those times and the music. I can hardly wait until June 16th when the video will be publicly released to the world. A monumental video for a truly great song!

Here is mine I found that just happened to be sitting in my hard drive. I recall uploading this to another post here last year, but here it is again.
John, sometimes you never know what famous person might cross your path. My friend Peter visited the Florida Keys about 10 year ago and one evening he was at a party or bar in one of the more famous places down there and had people just signing and writing in his journal that he left at the bar while drinking and having a good time with a lot of people. Drew Barrymore wrote and signed her name in his journal, although he was not aware who Drew Barrymore was until I showed him one of her movies and he vaguely remembered meeting someone who looked like that. So you never know.
Tomas, I like your list. Doors featuring JS Bach, Elton John featuring Beethoven, and Queen featuring Mozart. That would be quite the appearances. I’d love to meet Beethoven. Oh the questions I’d have for him about music.

That is awesome Rudolph, thanks so much! I think it will be a valuable, useful, and fun feedback tool for all of us on our posts.

There is something special about owning Orange in vinyl

Cool and Psychedelic.
Highly recommended if you haven’t opted for Orange in vinyl yet. -
Thanks Jacki. 🙂 Yeah, I like that purple ink too. The photos don’t do the color justice as the ink in person is very brilliant. It is a special edition Beatles ink called “Beatles Psychedelic Purple” that came out last year to celebrate Sargent Peppers 50th anniversary. Kept it locked up until now to use it. Goes well I think with the new video “Once Upon A Time” too, very psychedelic indeed.

Excuse the white balance. I am an amateur photographer.

Thanks Rudolph!

Future provides a thematic unity across the album similar to Sargent Peppers Lonely Hearts Club Band track at the beginning of that album, and repeats a reprise on the end of side 2 just before A Day in The Life. Brian Wilson was enthralled by the unity he saw on Rubber Soul. He said in a recent Tweet that every song on that album felt like it came from the same place. It was inspiration for his Pet Sounds album which impressed John and Paul enough to answer back with Sargent Peppers. All 3 master piece albums have a thematic arch across it. Albums today lack that kind of artistry and are often nothing more that a collection of 10 songs to form an album. Fortunately we have MLT who carry on that tradition of great album making like Orange.

Thanks much Jacki! 🙂 Appreciate your kind words always.

Nice drawings Jackie. I like them.

OMG my whole post just vanished to thin air when I did edit! Must be gremlins. Here goes again….
You’re both so musically gifted, when you do decide to mix it up and play different instruments from what you normally play, it’s a big treat for us all, as you push the “impress” envelope even further. Mona on harmonica or flute, and Lisa on the Cello for example, wow!
Mona doing lead guitar riffs throughout with her red Rickenbacker on “If I Needed Someone” was so crisp and precise and just awesome as well as on the other songs mentioned, and Lisa doing the bass on “Africa” was delightful. I don’t normally take notice of the bass, but in Africa, can notice the intricate nuance of the bass guitar voice in the background that was so wonderfully executed. The song ends quietly with the final few soft bass notes from Lisa’s guitar that really stands out.
As for drums Lisa, well I think Mona gave a little hint on a previous thread that you could hold your own on the drums, so I am sure if one day you decide to flex your drumming skills for a song, it will be a huge treat for us all too. 🙂

Yes I will echo everyone’s sentiment and say we are all very, very fortunate to have discovered the MLT, as they have touched many of us deeply and brought much joy and happiness to our lives through their remarkable music, inspiring creativity, and their wonderfully thoughtful kindness. Everything they do and the way they do it is inspiring and incredibly special in this day and age. They are a blessing to us all.
