So I’m starting something new, I’m going to attempt to listen to all 1001 records in ‘1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die’. I’ll be tweeting about them and linking to the albums on Spotify over at www.twitter.com/Listento1001.
Care to join me on this brilliant (I hope) journey from Frank Sinatra to White Stripes? 1955 to 2005. Here we go.
Here’s the link to the first Album, Frank Sinatra’s ‘In The Wee Small Hours’. I’m halfway through - it’s magical.

32-year-old Kayvan Sabeghi suffered a lacerated spleen after being beaten by Oakland PD officers near the protesters’ encampment in Frank Ogawa Plaza. He was taken to jail and reportedly denied medical attention for 18 hours, despite having visible wounds and complaining of strong pain.
It is quite clear that the beating he received was unprovoked and wildly disproportionate.

JESUS FUCKING CHRIST
THIS IS NOT OKAY
FUCK
Oh my fucking god
God this just actually makes me sick
This is important. Pepper spray should only ever be used to pacify a dangerous suspect. In this case it is being administered as a punishment, in clear violation of the 8th amendment and Article Five of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
Activist were peacefully protesting on their campus at University of California, Davis Quad.
Friday afternoon police showed up in riot gear to disperse the protesters by using pepper spray at point-blank range.
The officer who pepper-sprayed UC Davis students is Lt. John Pike. Give his PD a call. 530-752-1727
Well, here we go. Americans, if you don’t believe your police officers are above the law they swore to uphold, get on the phone right now and get this guy arrested.

I checked the audio in the video with my own iTunes, and I suggest you do the same… methinks there’s something up with your deck! The video audio is slower and lower in pitch than it should be.
Ah cheers Tom, I’ll take a look. It could just be my phone’s recording of it, but it’s more likely my deck needs recalibrating I suppose. Thanks.

Your decks are running slow! Either you’re playing it at 33 (it’s cut at 45, you need to flick yer RPM switch) or your decks need recalibrating!
I didn’t make it clear: I’d flicked it on purpose after listening to the EP at 45. It’s a completely different, if odd, experience with every track on vinyl. And in your case the beginning of LINES was turned from a beautiful track into a warped Zelda soundtrack. Apologies for the confusion! (And thanks again for creating quality music).
[In the video it’s playing at 45 and then I switched to 33 before I wrote my later text post]
Playing ‘Lines’ at 33RPM - Tom’s created the soundtrack to a Zelda game (at least for the opening, then it just gets a bit too odd).
yeah this seems like the kind of thing people should seeLiterally in the first 30 seconds of this video a cop just takes a can of pepper spray and douses a line of UC Davis students in peaceful protest doing nothing but sitting on the ground
Watching this video made me furious in the beginning, but seeing the way the crowd reacted, berating the officers without mercy and driving them off the property, only to immediately return to protesting- that was so fucking powerful. A fantastic display of organization and passion.
There may be hope yet.
seriously powerful video
very good, literally the best protestors ever
good
jesus everloving christ the pepper spray wow
holy freaking shit
ok jesus christ
Wow. The police have just got the complete wrong end of the stick. There is no way that I can believe any of these officers must think they are doing the right thing. Even worse, this sort of treatment will only make protesters more determined and no conclusion or outcome will be reached, and more people will be hurt on both sides.
As a protester it must be so tempting here to throw punches or objects, but these protesters don’t; they understand how important their cause is. Whether you agree or disagree with what they’re fighting for, you cannot believe that pepper spraying peaceful, unthreatening protesters and dragging them off is lawful or morally right.
