Despite...Of course. I can read the lyrics anyway:}<br /><br />Despite what others have said, I think still think that "Instinct" is excellent and has a sound very close to the minimal sound of the Stooges but produced and recorded much better. Every song song is excellent and masterfully understated. The sound is incredibility clear.<br /><br />You must have lots of musical gems on tape that will never surface. <br /><br />Could it be sold on iTunes or something? Probably not...<br /><br />Crowley was joking there. He had a very odd British sense of humour. He loved pompous names and and titles. He is making Louis Carroll make sound like a sage or master. Carroll's books are almost metaphysical though in a whimsical way.<br /><br />Something that Iggy and Crowley might have had in common is a weird sense of humourLJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16040460590165797632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7361223727037711552.post-88973299253476556862011-05-26T13:38:42.837-07:002011-05-26T13:38:42.837-07:00I don't have permission to post the recording....I don't have permission to post the recording.<br /><br />Ludovicus Carolus = Lewis Carroll. I believe that quote refers to something in "Through the Looking Glass" but don't know exactly what.Oz Fritzhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06061222169144560970noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7361223727037711552.post-45281910892009470982011-05-23T03:13:57.129-07:002011-05-23T03:13:57.129-07:00Excellent!

I suppose poems are fossils in a sense-- pieces of petrified culture, giving clues to past thought.<br /><br />Iggy returned top the theme of being a dog in "Preliminaries" recently, <br />with "king of the Dogs":<br /><br />I'm living like the king of the dogs<br />I got a piece of meat<br />In between my teeth<br />I will bite your throat<br />If you move on me<br /><br />I am sovereign<br />I'm the king of the dogs<br /><br />Polite life will fill you full of cancer<br />I don't even own a pair of pants.... [he's always taking them off anyway!]<br /><br />That has the same theme of persistence and of course you know about the meaning of "Perdurabo".<br /><br />Crowley didn't mind making use of apparently banal themes to express deeper meanings, as in Liber IV:<br /><br />"But one can hardly comment upon a theme which has been so fruitfully treated by Ludovicus Carolus, that most holy illuminated man of God. His masterly treatment of the identity of the three reciprocating paths of Daleth, Teth, and Pé, is one of the most wonderful passages in the Holy Qabalah....?<br /><br />I can only see a a missing graphic above the lyrics. Is it possible to hear it?LJhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16040460590165797632noreply@blogger.com
