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.
thanks muchly
Any opinions on the band Wake Ooloo? (A band that former Feelies frontman Glenn Mercer formed in the '90s after the Feelies broke up.) eMusic has three of their albums.
btw, I am totally loving Mercer's solo album Wheels in Motion. Sounds a lot like the Feelies.
I bet Cor's got an opinion on Wake Oloo, Tom.
Didn't know that Game Theory had a video for Erica's World
Patti Smith's famous "Pale Blue Eyes" / "Louie Louie" medley from '76
Did I already share this version of "Harborcoat" from '84? I thought I did.
Hec is right! I do have an opinion on Wake Ooloo, even if it's only semi-informed.
I have Stop The Ride on disc, which is 1/2 a Wheels In Motion-like approximation of the Feelies, and 1/2 utter bullshit. There's nothing too memorable about even the good songs, though. They're good, and that's about it. I've never heard either of the other two albums, but I'll get them now that I know emusic has them. I should say I like Wheels in Motion, too, but there's something very forgettable about it to me. I enjoy it while it's on, but when it ends, I can barely remember anything about it. I can't explain that. It's Glenn Mercer playing with most of the Feelies, and it sounds like the Feelies, who are one of my all-time top ten bands, but it just doesn't stick with me.
Corwood, I agree on Wheels in Motion. I love it while it's playing, but it's no Feelies album....
There are individual Wake Ooloo songs that are great: Time to Go, Monday Morning, and From Afar are the ones I've played most on the radio.

Heh. It's the Lolita Nation lineup lip-synching to a recording by the Big Shot Chronicles lineup.
This is an awesome story from the blog, A list of things thrown five minutes ago, that I thought y'all would appreciate:
When I was volunteering at my son’s school recess on Wednesday I saw something similar. It began like something you’d see in grainy black and white footage documenting the early days of Beatlemania. The vast majority of the third grade came out of the building in a screaming pack. Soon I noticed that they all appeared to be chasing a boy named Isaac.
I started to worry about the safety of Isaac and the other kids. I asked my son Liam what was going on. “Isaac promised us that he would sing at recess!” he replied.
