Fuck, I wish I still had that Atlantic R&B box around here. I wonder if they will let Booger in the funeral.

RIP

Much respect for this guy.


Everytime I see "Ray" I wish could've been a sound engineer for all those early Atlantic recording sessions.

One of the few true "Industry People" that I can respect.

I once wrote a song called "laxative". Where was Ertegun then?

Seeing as how he was killed by The Stones, perhaps he will fulfill their "Start Me Up" prophecy and posthumously ejaculate.

I mean, at least MONTY should get a chuckle out of this.

I lollered, FT. Though, I was confused, at first. I thought it was that the last thing you do before dying was defecate... I hadn't stopped to think that anything would come after.
