“Jimi Hendrix, born just a few months after Mayfield, may be the most notable of the many guitarists who studied Mayfield, though Eric Clapton also bears his mark. Hendrix had encountered Mayfield on the chitlin’ circuit in the segregated South in the early 1960s, sometimes even opening for the Impressions, and would…

What is happening at :40? I’m so confused. Better give it another listen.

And look, I’m not trying to be a pedant, Rory’s a great guitarist but there is absolutely no evidence Jimi ever said this.

“Likewise, the “entertainer and icon” bit has gone dead, in part because the Panthers are winning and in part because the criticism was so plainly disingenuous, having originated with writer-brands like Peter King…

Nah, if it was Oz it would’ve just sprayed neurotoxins out it’s anal gland or some shit.

Actually the proper way to disarm a turtle is to pretend Entourage never existed.

The solution is simple: rename Chipotle to Chimichangas and just fucking deep fry the shit out of everything.

“sometimes you need chipotle”

Perhaps in Ft. Greene you do, but certainly not in the SW. Related: why do Mericans try so hard to fuck up the Mexican cuisine? It’s already perfect.
