Gaylord, I feel like you just might understand, a litlle, that in this terrible season in which we've lost so many familiar and beloved performers, the passing of actor William Schallert is proving to be a real hard one for me. I mean real hard. I'm not being cutesy or facetious. Not to lay too much of a bummer on your comments board, I hope...

@P-90: I'm a very sympathetic person as a genuine Wm. Schallert fan myself.

And I have a dead brain mass -- stroke, and they can't dig it out; too deep. Kinda weird, knowing it's there.
  6:16pm
JakeGould:

My mom suffered tons of small strokes in her (quite hard) life until one final stroke was literally that. She was still fairly lucid prior to the final stroke so the brain’s resiliency is pretty amazing… But don’t delay treatment!

@Scraps deSelby: I'm happy that WFMU can be part of your recovery.

Have you heard the Monochrome Set's "Hidden Coils" LP from about five years ago? It's all about Bid's recovery from a stroke, and is bloody brilliant!

@Mr C: I myself was introduced to Barbara Lewis via the airwaves of WWRL 1600 AM.

My reference was to Andy Williams. WIP was the adult station my mother listened to.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:25pm

@Mr C: Aha! I like the adult music myself, as somehow I turned into an adult myself without my noticing.
Avatar 6:26pm

Gaylord: I have that! I love the Monochrome Set, even before I knew that.

I'm very interested in young stroke victims (of course), and there are several musicians: Chris Knox, Tim Smith (of the Cardiacs), Edwyn Collins...

JakeGould:

Also—not connected to strokes or tumors—but I know someone who worked a trauma emergency room and noticed a real weird pattern in men suffering concussions: She saw tons of men who got drunk, slipped on something and conked their head… While they recovered the family and friends of the person who conked their head all said a similar thing: “He’s nicer and less of a jerk since the accident.” Same person but it’s like with certain people a conk to the head makes them less jerks?

The 1st time I saw the term 'Adult Alternative' it certainly gave me pause...
Avatar 6:35pm
Scraps deSelby:

I was not a musician (even though music is my life; I don't know how that works; probably laziness, or to be kind with me, ADD). But I was a copy editor and proofreader and writer, and my stroke attacked my basic language skills -- that was horrible. Well.

- & yet - it is about Sir Macca being a melodic genius...hm. It shouldn't work but it does. It's probably the most covered song of all time for more reasons than the sentiment...

Scraps that sounds devastating, I'm sorry. Also, I don't think it's weird that music is your life w/out being a musician. Speaking for myself, I think I'm wired to appreciate it and not to play it.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:43pm
Gaylord Fields:

@P-90: That and many great Sixties TV soundtracks were written in unusual time signatures (Ben Casey, Room 222, and Mission: Impossible, most famously).

Webhamster Henry:

I do a bit where I sing the words to Yesterday with the tune of Macca's Tomorrow.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:44pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...uh-oh - 'Yesterday' rabbithole...the song is about choosing to live in an optimism that's gone & how one relates to that - & somehow speaks for the whole era metaphorically, a lot like 'Pet Sounds' loss of innocence does, if not the whole Beach Boys thang...well - not enuff flashlight to go down there...
Avatar Swag For Life Member 6:48pm
Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...course - John & Paul were married by the loss of their Mums ; the counterbalance of Working Class Blues - & Mod Affirmation (YeahYeahYeah!) in the Beatles is...a thing...
Avatar 6:51pm
Scraps deSelby:

Thank you, melinda. You're probably right about wired to appreciate. It's true that I didn't really want to play music until I suddenly had it taken away as a possibility. (Though I'm thinking about trying doing this as my iPad as an instrument....)

My paternal grandfather had a stroke at age 84 or so. Maybe it was just a minor one; I don't recall him having ill effects. He lived to age 95 and had a clear mind all the way to the end.
