Place your bets now as to whether or not he'll even notice.

Not me, although I do see your point.

What makes me utterly DISGUSTED with Mr K, is how I was led to believe one thing by his writnting, then shown the complete opposite when his true colors finally showed themselves. I can point out so many lyrics that man wrote, that COMPLETELY fucking contradict his actions over the past few years.

I think the song "The Ride" sums it up best. Where he sings, "in the west, we think we're the best, we've shown the world that money is all we care for now." And he sings it like he questions it. Like he's disappointed by it. And in the end, money sure as fuck had a lot to do with everything that went down.

I have no tolerance and absolutely no respect for people who preach one thing, then turn around and do the opposite........to the people they love to top it all off. It made me sick to my stomach and still does. I can't even stand seeing his face nowadays. I found love, comfort and spiritual well being through what that man wrote once upon a time. I admired the questions he posed and the aura of love and peace he once exuded.

To see that turn into a guy selling coffee and pendants at ripoff prices and peddling the existence of his children for profit to be fucking profanely disgusting. For one day way back, to speak of his family IN ANY WAY was expressly forbidden. Live were at their peak of popularity then and money was abundant. Selling out HUGE venues and commanding huge money for performances. Money was no issue and his PRIVACY was to be respected with utter vigilance.

But wait!! The tides turn. His music is frowned upon and the venues are now small, commanding a third for a performance than was paid for their services just a few years back. Fuck privacy now HUH? "Here's my kids!! See how cute they are?? PAY UP."

Fucking sellout and in the most dastardly of ways. Anything for that almighty dollar now right? Even your lifelong friends, the people who brought you in and helped get you there, they're expendable now too. True colors always end up showing themselves and to me? One of the most scathing and blatant displays of hypocrisy I've ever seen. Now he's in with a new crowd. Lets see what his lack of ethical fortitude puts on display for us in the years to come. As you can see, it has already attracted people like Nick.......and I think that speaks for itself, the icing on the cake if you will.

was this published prior to mid 2009? I wonder what Krishnamurti said to Ed when then met?

I am in the camp that his search was the almighty $$, but once upon a time it was true to the 4 of the band!!

But this thread is about the new songs and the Shinn re-records!!! It's about the collaboration you see!!!

Ed's never met Jiddu Krishnamurti - he died in 1986.

Ed was involved with Ken Wilbur and Integral Naked from at least 2006 so that bio would have been written around then.

didnt he meet one of those guru's other than wilber? Adi da

Would anyone be able to re-up these?? I listened on the site, and they're pretty good. Would love to be able to have these on my iPod!!!

I should have these mp3s somewhere. I'll upload them for you tonight.

Thanks, Dangum! You rock!

My small contribution.

Enjoy it (I did)

Thanks much for that! I listened to them on my way into work this morning. Kind of torn. I like them, but I still think they'r better with Ed. Maybe it's just from hearing the regular cuts for so long.

That's because they are. There's just no replacing an original. NEVER the same.

Better with the original Ed of the 90's? Sure. Better with today's bizzaro Ed? No way.

Digging through the archives and came across these which I'd completely forgotten about! Not sure they got their own thread in the Multimedia section; if not I think they should because they're excellent.
