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.

I noticed on the way to work that the nearby record store is having a big sale. Since I'll be toddling over there after work, are there any new releases that have rocked Buffista socks?

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I can direct you to some automated backup programs if you want, juliana.

Oooh, yes please. And the jacket (and Frye boots, because I know won't be satisfied with just Docs) will be mine! Muhahahaha!

Who are your favorites?

Ha. That could take all day. It's easier to mention things I don't like. I'm still not wild about country, a lot of folk, R&B, and fail to truly appreciate The Mountain Goats. I got over my aversion to pop, at least.

Pink Martini has a new album that is as delicious as their others. I only discovered them a month or two ago, so despite the fact that the bloom isn't entirely off the rose, they're quickly ascending to Combustible-Edison-like favorite status with me.

OK, recent stuff I like includes Deerhunter's Cryptograms, Shearwater's Palo Alto, Deerhoof's Friend Opportunity, Yo La Tengo's I Am Not Afraid of You And I Will Beat Your Ass, Panda Bear's Person Pitch, Andrew Bird's Armchair Apocrypha, anything by Akron/Family, anything by Espers (and I'm getting away from "recent" to "underappreciated," I think), anything by Jens Lekman, Midlake, the new Spoon, has the new Beastie Boys record dropped?, the Clientele's God Save The Clientele, The Dexateens' Hardwire Healing, Voxtrot's s/t album, ok that's all I have at the moment.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I Am Not Afraid of You And I Will Beat Your Ass

Go to the record store and ask for it by name.

(But seriously, a must-have).

Q. Will the record store counter geeks get Tom's joke?

A. Yes. Yes, they will.

Ooh, I need more Pink Martini! And thanks for your suggestions, Corwood. Some I already have, but there were several albums in there that I'd forgotten I wanted to buy.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

A. Yes. Yes, they will.

I love that article, and I own a vintage Galaxie 500 shirt.

Tom -- Are you going to Maxwell's Saturday for the Glenn Mercer show?
