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.

I also meant to mention that if you read Lost In The Grooves and were intrigued (as I was) by the description of Appaloosa and were discouraged (as I was) by its rarity, then weep no more.
It's just been re-released on CD. I picked one up last night.
Now playing: The 6ths Wasp Nest.
You should all play this record today! If you don't already own it, then you should go buy it.
That's a good one, alright.
Wasps' Nest t /pedant
That's a good one, alright.
Also almost Merrittless Merritt. The guy sings like he's raising the dead in a Hammer film.
If celebrity deaths always happen in three's than maybe we are done for a while. CNN is reporting that Lou Rawls has died.
Well, I can only say that I'm glad that I wasn't the one who posted that.
(on edit: because I've been feeling like a black cloud or something.)
We made the LA Weekly Zeitlist.
