Huzzah with the buying and reading of my book. I endorse this trend.
Joe, that's a killer mix.
I really like Marti Jones' first two albums, though I really kind of need to own this one.
"I Wish" is probably my favorite Stevie Wonder song.
Wild monkey love or tender Sarah McLachlan love?

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.

It took several attempts at ordering it, but Amazon is finally shipping me a copy of David's book. Yay!
I just got an e-mail yesterday telling me that Amazon is shipping my bro's copy to him. I'll report his review once he's read it.

Corwood! Did you know there's an interview with Linda Thompson in the newest issue of The Believer ?
We're reading that issue for my book club (this year it's All Magazines!).
Anyway, in Small World news the guy who interviewed her is a friend of mine from college.

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

I would just like to mention that Cobra Starship + tiny venue = so much fun, I'm surprised it's legal.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
This one's for Corwood:
On the one hand, Mr. Monk had obvious talents, but on the other hand, his piano playing was very messy, and his songs had many funny notes and rhythms. Over the many years that I have been studying his music, I have grown to the conclusion that his songs would be much better, and much more popular, if many of the dissonances, or "wrong notes," were removed. With my new CD, "Hans Groiner Plays Monk," I have done just that.

Wow, talk about your profound point-missing. I wonder if he'll clean up Cecil Taylor next.

The name "Hans Groiner" sounds like something out of Pynchon.

Pynchon is a musician, y'know. Maybe this is one of his jokes.
