And don't you have a great version of Merry Christmas Baby, by -- I think -- Southern Culture on the Skids? I would *really* love that as an mp3.
Can we maybe vote on the whole murdering people issue?

Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach
There's a lady plays her fav'rite records/On the jukebox ev'ry day/All day long she plays the same old songs/And she believes the things that they say/She sings along with all the saddest songs/And she believes the stories are real/She lets the music dictate the way that she feels.

It's good to be the king.

I did my annual Xmas radio show this morning and used a few of Hec's powerpop selections. Playlist is here. Podcast is here.

Sweet! "Mods of Christmastown"? I need that. And I didn't know the Chills had a xmas song.

Ha! You know how I "found" those two songs? I created a smart playlist in iTunes for songs pegged as "Holiday" genre, or songs or album names with Christmas in them.Those particular two songs surprised me as well!
The Chills song appeared on the "Secret Box" 3 CD collection of outtakes and live tunes that Martin released a few years ago.
The Zumpano song was on the CD included with Ptolemaic Terrascope #25.
I can get both up onto Buffistarawk, maybe this evening.
