As Commissar of Rock, I feel I must tell you when I successfully turn another music icon to the Common Good ™. This one also has more talent than Bruce Springsteen:

Following in the footsteps of (among many other flower-children) Stephen Stills, Bonnie Raitt, Chrissie Hynde, Jimmy Buffet, and Carole King (who in 2002 serenaded Fidel Castro with a personal “You've Got a Friend”) guitar legend Jimmy Page made the pilgrimage to Fidel Castro's fiefdom this week.

He bought a few souvenirs on his trip, including a picture of Che Guevara and one of the original Led Zeppelin albums to appear in Cuba:


I am sure the most progressive cracks running through reminded him of the high art that will flourish as we stride ever forward towards Next Tuesday ™

I like this guy's music, and now I have think of this every time I play it. Moron.

Excellent! I will be sending my Woompa Loompa's out right way to procure Stephen Stills, Bonnie Raitt, Chrissie Hynde, Jimmy Buffet, and Carole King, Jimmy Page albums for the entire collective!

Hail Obama!

Most of Americas star go gooey eyed for Comrade Castro. I do not get it... he's just to ugly.

His beard is/was better than Che's!!!

ah ha! Thank you for your clear clarification, dear Comarde INGSOC. There is nothing, like a good beard, is there! (well, cough, almost nothing)

The beard truly is what makes the Leader.


That's why Uncle Joe was never my favorite.

Maybe Dear Leader needs one of his own?

It is good to see so many fine minstrels longing to be part of the great people's Utopia of Cuba. Their musical talents will serve the workers in the cane fields well, for there is no way for them to hear radio out there. I do hope they can continue to sing on key while they are digging.

I understand, Comrade Tsar, but I am not sure that the hairy face works so well for dear Leader.


but I could be wrong??

I think Mrs. Al could offer some insights on the growing of the pubic facial hairs.

(Frau, your pics are for making me to chuckle)

WHAT?!! I CAN'T BELIEVE YOU. . . . . . oh, wait, you said 'public', did you not. Well, never mind and stop interference with my thoughts!....

yes, what a pity Mrs. A isn't around to offer a trimming tips and growth regiments. I think she's trapped in a flooded cave somewhere.

(please feel free to send your unsolicited donation to myself for the 'chuckling' incident)

I believe I have found what he will be singing while he digs.



The Cuban Immigrant Song

Ahhhhhhhahhh
ahhhhhhhahhh
We come form the land where cigars are rolled
Where the tropical sun and the palm trees grow
Hammered by the Sickle
We drive our rafts through the Gulf
Fight the waves, kneal and pray
Freedom we are coming,
On we sweep with,
With makeshift paddles,
Our only goal will be the Florida shore.

Ahhhhhhhahhh
ahhhhhhhahhh
We come from the land where cigars are rolled
Where the tropical sun and the palm trees grow
How bloody our island has been.
We whisper tales of gore
Of how Che murdered our dissidents
Why do you have his T-shirt?
On we sweep with,
With makeshift paddles,
Our only goal will be the Florida shore!

Fidel, we'll never stop
To go back to your ruins.
We have hope for a new day
Despite all your losin'

Ooooooh,ooooh,ooooh.

Comrade Rock Tsar,

You do realize that Che' does did not care for Rock n' Roll music, as he believes believed that it corrupted and inflamed the masses. As for the beard, Ihe never gave much thought to my hisappearance; the beard was an afterthought, or possibly a disguise. MyHis good Latin looks could not be hidden by a beard LOL

Comrade Fraulein,
Perhaps it is not the appearance of the man, but the aroma of those fine hand rolled cigars he smokes!
Trader Bill created quite an uproar using cigars on Monica, but there are others who are more qualified to speak on the subject.
It could be an example of brainless mass hysteria, related to hystrionics! No one has told me what to think on the subject.

Comrade Che Gourmet, of course you do not approve of this music. It is by its nature contrary to whatever system it happens to be in. And it is distracting in the beet (or cane) field. Here in the kapitalist USA, where we do not have the benefit of a glorious revolution, we must indoctrinate the Children ™ for the Common Good ™ to Win the Future ™. Putting our message in the music they listen to is a good way to do this.

Comrade Tooorisky, what you will say is "They have seen the truth that is Socialism.". What you will think is "They have imbibed too many dubious chemicals."
