It's working for me, Sue. If you can't get it working tonight & want to send me the necessary info I'd be happy to download whatever you want & stick it on a disc.
Nice piece on Max Roach by Fred Kaplan with lots of good clips. It's no longer there but I'd swear that a couple hours ago there was a subhed that said "More Cowbell" - which struck me as funny because I used "Un Poco Loco" in our "More Cowbell" go round way back when. It's probably still on B'rawk or B'rawk2 if anyone wants to hear it. I also put Sonny Rollins's "St. Thomas" on B'rawk2. Max's intro is one of his career highlights. Check out the Youtube clip Kaplan linked to. I saw Max do a high hat-only solo at the Charlie Parker festival a few years ago & it was killer. R.I.P.
I'm with Cor about the new Mekons. Journey To The End of Night but with more input from Lu I think -- more eastern murder ballads and less Caribbean apocalyptic. But yeah, it's really good.

That sounds just about right.
Anyone have an mp3 of the Neville Brothers doing "Way Down In The Hole"?

I do not. Though I did post the gospel version at Bufrawk.
The gospel version? Blind Boys?

That's the one. Search on Waits Covers.
Sweet! But I have it already. Just wanted to make sure there wasn't another I didn't know about. Like, say, this Tom Waits/Kronos Quartet version I read about earlier tonight.

Just wanted to let you know that I was able to download last night. I keep wanting to cancel my emusic account, but every time I find more things to download. Damn all this music!!
