LAMONT’S MUSIC NOTES-AUGUST 17, 2019- THIS SONG WAS ORIGINALLY A HIT SONG FOR COUNTRY SINGER BILLY JOE ROYAL IN 1967. A YEAR LATER DEEP PURPLE RELEASED A BALLSY, ROCK VERSION AND IT PROVED TO BE THE GROUPS FIRST TOP TEN HIT. IN 2009 DEEP PURPLE’S KEYBOARD EXTRAORDINAIRE JON LORD TOLD “MOJO” MAGAZINE:

"Initially we thought it's a bit too disco, or whatever the word was then.

But Ritchie (Blackmore) said it would work if we toughened it up a bit."

HERE’S THE ORIGINAL VIDEO FOR ‘HUSH’ RELEASED BY DEEP PURPLE IN 1968

PRESLEY, REFERRED TO AS THE KING OF ROCK AND ROLL, DIED ON HIS THRONE AT THE AGE OF 42. ELVIS WAS SITTING ON THE TOILET AND DROPPED DEAD FROM A CORONARY ARRHYTHMIA. HIS GIRLFRIEND GINGER ALLEN FOUND HIM ON THE CRAPPER AND WAS IMMEDIATELY TAKEN TO BAPTIST MEMORIAL HOSPITAL IN MEMPHIS. NUMEROUS ATTEMPTS WERE MADE TO REVIVE THE KING BUT TO NO AVAIL, WITH ELVIS PRESLEY PRONOUNCED DEAD AT 3:30 PM.

OFFICIALLY HEART FAILURE WAS DEEMED THE ULTIMATE CAUSE OF DEATH, WHICH WAS BROUGHT ON BY A LONG-STANDING DRUG ABUSE PROBLEM. THE FINAL CORONER’S REPORT WAS MADE PUBLIC A COUPLE OF WEEKS AFTER PRESLEY’S DEATH AND THE TOXICOLOGY REPORT INDICATED HIGH LEVELS OF THE OPIATES DILIDAD, DEMEROL, AND PERCODAN, AS WELL AS QUAALUDES, CODEINE AMONG OTHER THINGS.

Lamont & Tonelli talked to Mr. Skin for his weekly fun bags forecast, including Alison Brie and Geena Davis' nude scenes in GLOW streaming now on Netflix.

Here is Lamont and Tonelli's latest video for "Penis Is A Bone."

A robbery suspect in Virginia came up with a creative way to hide his face from the surveillance cameras inside a 7-Eleven in Chesapeake, Virginia. Last week the robbery suspect walked into the convenience store wearing a black baby t-shirt over his head with two holes cut out so he could see. As you can see in the above photo, the only thing visible was part of the man's balding head. He was armed with a knife and had a yellow drawstring bag draped over his chest.

LAMONT’S MUSIC NOTES-AUGUST 15 2019-ONE OF THE MOST HALLOWED EVENTS IN POP CULTURE TOOK PLACE ON THIS DATE IN 1969 WITH CLOSE TO AN ESTIMATED 1,000,000 PEOPLE SHOWING UP FOR THE “WOODSTOCK MUSIC FESTIVAL.”

THE FESTIVAL WAS BILLED AS THE “AQUARIAN EXPERIENCE: 3 DAYS OF PEACE AND LOVE” AND THE MASSIVE CONCERT DIDN’T HAPPEN WITHOUT A HITCH.

THERE WERE LAST MINUTE VENUE CHANGES, BAD WEATHER, AND A VIRTUAL ARMY OF ATTENDEES SHOWING UP TO A VENUE THAT WASN’T PREPARED FOR THE MASSIVE ONSLAUGHT OF HUMANITY. PROMOTERS EXPECTED A CROWD OF 50,000 PEOPLE AND BECAUSE OF LAST MINUTE LOGISTICS, AND NO EFFICIENT WAY TO CHARGE THE THRONG OF PEOPLE, ORGANIZERS CHANGED WOODSTOCK TO A FREE CONCERT. HIGHWAYS AND LOCAL ROADS CAME TO A STANDSTILL AND MANY CONCERT GOERS ABANDONED THEIR CARS AND TOOK BY FOOT TO ATTEND THE EVENT.

THERE WAS ALOT OF SEX, DRUGS, RAIN AND ROCK AND ROLL. THERE WERE NO MORE THAN A DOZEN POLICE OFFICERS TO KEEP AND EYE ON THE CROWD, AND OFF-DUTY POLICE OFFICERS WERE BANNED FROM THE VENUE.

THE FIRST BIG ACT TO SIGN UP FOR WOODSTOCK WAS CCR. HAVING CREEDENCE CLEARWATER ON THE BILL GAVE THE FESTIVAL THE STREET CRED IT NEEDED TO ATTRACT OTHER BIG ACTS.
