I haven't bought a new CD in three years, easily. I don't even shop in the big deals, like Virigin or Tower, anymore. If I do go shopping, it is/will be for vinyl, and then only when I have a place to store it; or for rare/import/impossible to download CDs at used/rare record stores. But I download pretty much everything these days.
Do you see any goats around? No, because I sacrificed them.

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Free stuff!
From the WFMU blog:
My favorite musical finds on the big wide internet this week start with Keely Smith singing the Lennon & McCartney songbook. Instead of being just another Fab Four knock-off for a confused older generation, this is a truly great album of reinterpretations that turn the Beatles' songs into the classic lounge hits they always wanted to be. Way better than when McCartney tried a similar reinvention.
Has links to three of the mp3s.
I downloaded the whole thing and just started listening to it. Cool so far.
You can download the whole album (in a zip file) here:
Also from WFMU (same as the first link):
Lotti Golden's 1969 album Motor-Cycle is a psychedelic soul trip produced by Bob Crewe. Not yet on CD, it is certainly a crate digging masterpiece. My favorite track is "A Lot Like Lucifer", a sprawling epic that starts out soulful, turns ragtime, leads into a stomper, throws in some fuzz guitar, goes for the Memphis sound, and then tosses in the kitchen sink. Come to think of it, pretty much every song on this album is like that.
"A Lot Like Lucifer" is fun!

Jon - You read my mind. I was just coming to post that. WTF???
This has to be the final sign of the end times, right?

First one: I love the WeckerCam. I wonder where and for what this was filmed?
Second one: I remember seeing that when it was aired! I'd forgotten how Paul's band played along with every musical guest. I always thought that was really obnoxious. I also remember Letterman saying, after the break, that if the Feelies ever came upon hard times, they could "dump the tambourine guy."

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
Fourth One: Was this shot at Maxwells?
Probably. The last shot is the Hoboken train terminal.
