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.

Yes. They're difficult to control, and they don't have the richness of sound that a true heterodyne instrument would have.

That would totally rock.
The Phil Spector murder trial looks like it might be a doozy.

I have a feeling we may never know what really happened....
Anyone here familiar with The Winterpills? I must have listened to their song 'Broken Arm' 75 times in the last three days.
Hunt for treasure, just like Bill Wyman and get your own Bill Wyman Signature Metal Detector! (WTF?)
