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.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

I don't know nothin' about it, either, but I'm opposed to the death penalty on principle, so I say sign it.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

"Beach State Rocking" - Game Theory

Where did you get that?

I've got it on Tinkers To Evers to Chance. I could load it on Buffistarawk if you need/want it.

You do know that Scott Miller played a promotional event for my last book, right? After we featured both Loud Family and Game Theory records in the book.

I got to request "Regenisraen" - gorgeous.

Done, and forwarded to you.

And on that note I'll recommend the Dead Man Walking soundtrack (the one that says "And Songs Inspired By"), especially for Steve Earle's "Ellis Unit One," the two Eddie Vedder/Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan tracks (go figure, but they're both beautiful and heartbreaking), and "The Fall of Troy" by Tom Waits (don't like his other song, "Walk Away"). I'd link to AMG but since I find, as I often do when I'm familiar with the album, their choices of "track picks" horribly misguided, I won't. For the record, I like the Johnny Cash song, but it's about the seventh or eighth best song on the album, and I don't like Springsteen's title track at all. Do the AMG reviewers even listen before submitting their take?

ETA: Buffistarawk info's on the way, dw.

Thanks, Joe. And thanks for the Doug Sahm rec -- I've added it to my "save for later" pile (tho I may pick it up with the Booster Pack I'm about to buy).

And on the NOT Perfect Pop Songs list? "To All The Girls I Loved Before."

Oh, iPod, why hast thou forsaken me?

And apropos of... I dunno, my Weltanschauung maybe, the Slurpee's 40 and so's "Hang On, Sloopy".

And apropos of the above & New Orleans on my mind, one of my favorite quotations from A Confederacy of Dunces: "You must realize the fear and hatred which my Weltanschauung instills in people." Bonus inspirational quotation from Ignatius J. Reilly: "Employers sense in me a denial of their values."

Always Anti-fascist!

I love that book. Of course, my writing teacher told us its meta as a cautionary tale, but the book justified it.

Employers sense in me a denial of their values.

This should be my tagline.

All these PPS suggestions, and not one mention of Elvis Costello.
