tit turnstile/put-down

Other
The CD was alternately co-produced by George Drakoulias (The Black Crowes, Kula Shaker, Maria McKee), Mickey Petralia (Beck, Luscious Jackson), Clif Magness, Ron Aniello, and Jude himself. Everyone contributing to No One Is Really Beautiful -- Tom Petty & The Heartbreakers’ keyboardist Benmont Tench, Grant Lee Buffalo’s Paul Kimble, and Michael Ward and Rami Jaffe from the Wallflowers -- shared a common objective. "The idea was to serve the songs through the arrangements," says Jude. So whether it’s a raw-boned track about an aging "TIT TURNSTILE" starlet ("Prophet"), a tribute tune to his mother ("You Mama You"), a sardonic, hip-hoppy tour de force ("Brad & Suzy"), or an armor-piercing PUT-DOWN ("Rick James"), Jude’s razor-sharp points of view are heard loud and clear.

corte (humiliacion), vieja puta
Aquí encontrarás las palabras de la canción que contiene la expresión "tit turnstile". Explicación: tit = teta; turnstile, empleado aquí de forma metafórica, significa, por quien pasan los demás, pagando, uno tras otro, como por un torniquete donde se depositan boletos, cuotas, etc.

puerta giratoria de las tetas, insulto
I'm imagining that the turnstile is the revolving door of a casting agency or movie studio that has a constant stream of women flowing in and out. A "put-down" is an insult.

armor-piercing putdown = un dicho muy agudo y humillante
Tit turnstile: literally means torniquete en una teta, but as in the other term it should be translated freely. Posibility (among many!):
- Un viejo e hiriente puntillazo

tetón abatible con acción graduada de molinillo
ésta es la traducción mecánica, si os sirve. Podría ser perfectamente aplicable a un punto de engrase de alguna máquina
