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.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
I just had quite the musical (early) evening. We went to see I'm Not There (which was GREAT), and then went out to dinner where our waitress was Thalia Zedek.

Is there anyplce I can sample this on line? 'cause I was gonna say, "no. Fairytale of New York." But then I realized I've never heard the BellRays

They played it on WFMU this afternoon. If you go here, it's the 3rd or 4th song in. It starts at 9:40.
If you go on iTunes, the tracks are mixed up. If you click on "All I Want to Do", you'll hear, "Santa's Got a Big Old Bag", and if you click on "Santa's Got a Big Old Bag", you'll hear "All I Want To Do Is Shag For Christmas".

WFMU in Chicago? Didn't that used to be a classical music station? Oh no wait, that's WFMT.

No, that would be "Christmas, Baby Please Come Home" by Darlene Love. I missed her Christmas show this year. So sad. I heard she had Cissy Houston singing "Oh Holy Night" again. Oh my!

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Too late for Jon, but they have a version of "The Little Drummer Boy" - by the Jingle Cats. I like how that song is classified (along with Klaus Nomi's "Silent Night") under "Experimental." It has sitar! And, um, dogs.

My sister and I played the Jingle Cats CD first when we got home with the tree every year. This year she moved out and I kind of miss the Jingle Cats.
