unique? maybe...
Oct. 14th, 2004 12:00 pmName a CD you own that no-one else on your friends list does:
Big Daddy's 50s-style cover rendition of Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band (ok, *maybe*
dwenius finally picked a copy up sometime back then).
lets try that again...
see, i was trying to avoid the *easy* stuff, like prog-rock bootlegs, or cape breton island music bought directly from the artists, or other strange celtic things like Shaun Davey's orchestral works, or obscure soundtracks like the 3-disc Prisoner soundtrack (anybody got THAT one?), or certainly any of the cds i pressed myself using the audio soundtrack to concerts...
so FINE.
A-Ha's cd single for "Forever Not Yours", with a great live version of Hunting High and Low recorded in Norway in 2002 (and broadcast this morning on the Trio network).
Name a book you own that no-one else on your friends list does:
a 1909 pressing of Shakespeare's Sonnets, with analysis. its so unused that about 1/3rd of the pages are still uncut.
Name a movie you own on DVD/VHS/whatever that no-one else on your friends list does:
Space Cruiser Yamato, series 2 (star blazers' comet empire) in the original Japanese.
Name a place that you have visited that no-one else on your friends list has:
Marco Polo Park, an amusement park set up on I-95 in Bunnell, Florida, closed down by 1975. If you drive that route, the metal of the roller coasters can still be seen through the pine trees. Here's a pic of it back then (not mine)

still, its cool that i'm not the only person left in the country to have heard of them.
on the other hand, I *AM* appearantly still the only one who's heard of Marco Polo Park ;-)
