It must be the holiday’s again, for I am in the mood for hacking on GIMP paint tools again. Updated
bug “add support for color jitter in the paint tools” and .paint tools should support “smudging” as they paint.
Some examples of various states of those and other hacks at adrian.gimp.org/patches.

Dutch Indo-Rock is rad.
The Tielman Brothers – Rollin’ Rock (live 1960) Must watch.
The Tielman Brothers – Black Eyes (live 1960)
The Tielman Brothers – Bossa Nova Baby (1966)
The Crazy Rockers – Carioca (1963)
(How can you not like a band called “The Crazy Rockers”)
How about a Belgian rock version of Sabre Dance from 1964
burt blanca – orange blossom special (live 1985). A Belgian Polka Surf Rock version of Orange Blossom Special. My brain hurts.
