Miller - Baby I Got News For You (1965)
This tune sounds remarkably like the Troggs in all their single minded stupidity. Miller was Peter Miller, who also recorded some all sorts of psych rarities as Big Boy Pete.
I don't care if I do the right thing by you

Army update #2: Ed, Edd & Eddy joined the chat
Today on my way to work I kept thinking about the colour pallet for my army. When I was getting myself some lunch I noticed an interesting soda can. (You probably know where this is going).
Tumblr media
Those colours are EXACTLY what I was looking for. Gentle tint of mint was the missing piece I needed. Now I know how to proceed.
After work I swung by the War Store and got myself propper clippers. They were kind of pricey, but it's okay. I don't mind spending a bit more money on something I'll be using regularly.
Tumblr media
I also picked up the figurine I started painting the last time. When you buy your first set you get one for free. I still haven't finished painting this lil guy, but will do that in a free moment.

Then I finally finished the base on Uno. He still got a long way to go, but ita a start. After adding some more highlights he'll be a beautiful boi.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
After that I took some pics of the bigger bois I partly put together the last time. They're not done yet because I was too scared to proceed with regular scissors and damaging the arms.
Ed: the one with one paw on a rock.
Tumblr media
Edd: the one with cool as skull on his side.
Tumblr media
And Eddy: the one with small, cute bone attached to his hip.
Tumblr media
Tumblr doesn't allow me to put more that 10 pictures, but it's okay. I'll upload more pictures of the bois once they're all built and covered in base. All you have to know now is that their asses are showing and I love them for it. Healthy kings embracing body positivity. Just take my word for it.
That's it for now. I'll keep y'all posted :)

Album Review: Jimi Hendrix Experience - Jimi Hendrix Experience: Hollywood Bowl August 18, 1967
Five days before Are You Experienced was released, the Jimi Hendrix Experience opened for the Mamas & the Papas at the Hollywood Bowl. The music they played that evening was thought to have wafted in to the ether, never to be heard again.
Fast-forward 56 years and, lo and behold, the music was captured on a two-track recording and is now out as Jimi Hendrix Experience: Hollywood Bowl August 18, 1967. While it is historic and deserves to be released, Hollywood Bowl is also an album for diehards only.
Sonically, the recording would never merit official release unless the artist had died more than a half-century ago, or the performance was particularly important. This passes both of those tests, but the music leaves much to be desired.
Between songs, bassist Noel Redding does almost as much talking as guitarist Hendrix, a reminder that the Experience was a band. Hendrix, meanwhile, dedicates most every song to everyone, save for the set-closing “Wild Thing,” which goes out to U.S. and British soldiers returning from Vietnam.
The nine-song, 45-minute set begins with a sloppy rendition of “Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,” a preview of the fact that while Redding, drummer Mitch Mitchell and of course Hendrix were masterful players, synching up wasn’t always high on the agenda. “The Wind Cries Mary,” is a balladic exception; however, Hendrix forgets a significant chunk of the lyrics.
Hendrix sings lead like Hendrix - not good, but passable, given Hendrix also plays like Hendrix. But Redding’s backgrounds - from the comical whispers on “Foxey Lady” to the out-of-tune and out-of-time additions to “Fire” and “Purple Haze” are simply amateurish.
But Hollywood Bowl is still relevant, given it captures a pre-fame Hendrix playing Howlin’ Wolf’s “Killing Floor,” Muddy Waters’ “Catfish Blues” and Bob Dylan’s “Like a Rolling Stone” before an unsuspecting audience of Cass Elliot fans. So while it’s not a particularly strong album on musical merits, it is doubtless an important one.
Grade card: Jimi Hendrix Experience - Jimi Hendrix Experience: Hollywood Bowl August 18, 1967 - C+

Army update #3: The Bois
After some time I finally managed to put the Troggs together! And, in my humble opinion, they look great. The details on them are insane.
Tumblr media
Big boi number one.
Tumblr media
Big boi number two.
Tumblr media
And big boi number three.
I started reading about the lore some time ago and I'm obsessed. The dynamic between Goblins and Troggs is really cute. Big, strong slow fighters and smoll, fast balls of anger. I don't know what it is about it that gets me, but o absolutely love it.
Here is Uno and one of the big Bois in comparison.
Tumblr media
I can't wait to paint them.
