Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach  

Closed Threads

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 knew that topless lady had something up her sleeve. - John Prine

Hey, Joe B, did you see that Lethem is officially a MacArthur-certified genius now?

Been at my folks' place & mostly offline for a few days so I didn't see it, but a mutual friend (not that one) called to tell me about it. He also predicted that the mutual friend you were thinking of would be completely bummed out by the news. He called , bummed out, shortly thereafter. He loves JL like a brother but feels like he (the one you know, not JL) has wasted his life. Objectively he knows it isn't true, but he's still bummed. My take: well Sgt. Pepper is the officially certified best album ever & you know how I feel about that. I'm happy about Jonathan's success, but I still think he's overrated.

Anyway, Hec & Corwood please send me your mailing addresses ASAP. I'm sending you some stuff whether you want it or not. Keep it, chuck it, pass it on, whatever. I can't take it with me & can't bring myself to tossing it.

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

Well, okay!

btw, Joe, do you have the Lou Reed video Coney Island Baby? It's Lou live with Fernando and Quine doing things like Legendary Hearts and New Sensation and the usual Reedian songbook. If not, I saw it used on VHS at Amoeba the other day and could pick it up for you.

Silence means security silence means approval

OK, let's say I'm making a mix tape of nothing but non-rap covers of rap songs. Right now I have the Gourds' "Gin and Juice," Ben Folds' "Bitches Ain't Shit," Nina Gordon's girl-and-a-guitar version of "Straight Outta Compton."

Any other suggestions?

"Black Steel" - Tricky
"Bring the Noise" - The Unholy Trio (Misha hates this, but I like it 'cuz it sounds like Ernest Tubb)
Luka Bloom's cover of LL Cool J's "I Need Love"

some alternacountry band on Bloodshot

The Unholy Trio, I think.

ETA: you edited.
Also katefate - sorry I missed you at Winfield. I tried but wasn't sure I had the right camp and then I came down with a cold on Sat and basically quit moving after that. Hope you are recovering from your post-Winfield blues OK.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

I have a feeling I want some of these. Rasputina's live "Oops I did it again".

Rasputina's live "Oops I did it again".

They haven't released it yet, as far as I know. I'm waiting for them to release their cover of "Baby Got Back".

(I would try to close the t obssesive Rasputina fangirl tag, but we all know that would be a fib.)

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Rasputina's live "Oops I did it again".

"Oops I did it again" is a rap song? If so, Richard Thompson does a great cover of it as well.
