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.

Serial:
And upon a couple of listens, it's bright and upbeat, but there's this undercurrent of sadness that I can't quite tell if it's actually there, or if I'm adding it to the song in my head myself.
Anyone heard of Pistol Valve? They're a pop group of Japanese women, with horns. Lots of horns. Catchy as fuck, and they have a great look: [link] [link] (YouTube videos.)
I'm really the only Beatles fan in the thread? Really?

It's true, Sean. not really
In other news, Oxford American has asked me to pitch for their music issue.
I suggested Dan Hicks, The Memphis Goons and The Scruffs.
(Remember, it has to be a musician or band with some connection to the South.)
