Cool Thing: Sharon Jones and the Dap Kings were clients of the talent agency I interned at in Chicago.
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.
Watching Rock and Roll Circus - it's... interesting? Parts are fantastic, but I can't help overlaying what I know of everyone's careers - Marianne Faithfull, for example.
Also, the camerawork is fascinating - I love seeing how techniques and style have changed.
Lastly, young Mick is still a sexy bitch.
Yeah, but the Who doing "A Quick One" is the best thing ever.

That's definitely up there.
Jethro Tull was weirdly fascinating, too.

Concur. Because on the one hand they're totally fucking around, and on the other they're so completely confident in their ability that they just absolutely destroy.
Yeah, but the Who doing "A Quick One" is the best thing everThe Who fucking rock. I could listen to Who's Next over and over and over
Last night I was in the kitchen cooking or something and turned on the radio and they had some special on Joni Mitchell. It was chockful of teeny interview snippets of Joni talking about her life and her early work and others talking about the same.
It just seemed. . . odd so I had this sudden horrible thought that something bad had happened. That's not true, is it?

iTunes tells me I haven't listened to this entire album since 4/21/2004. So that'll make a good album to start out the day with.
I like the album, but I love early Who so much more....

I think she's got a new CD out, sumi. The CBS Sunday morning show also had an interview with her. She's back in music after having stepped away from it for several years.
Joni Mitchell has a new album I think (based on distracted NPR listening). So it was probably that, and not that she's died.
