I put the new Bauhaus on when I went to bed and I really like what I heard of it. I did fall asleep, but with headphones and in bed I can fall asleep to hardcore.
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.
Can anyone rec a good country complation album or albums? I was watching clips from Johnny Cash's tv show last night and suddenly find myself lacking lots of of older country - Merle, Hank, Loretta, Carter Family, Carl Perkins, etc.
Email me your address, Aimee. I have a copy of a classic country comp I made years ago for a friend just lying around. I'm going to mail out a bunch of DVDs on Monday, and I'd be happy to send you a disc, too.
Hey Jon! (and other cool indie rock fans)
I accidentally tivoed a music show off the Mexican channel and saw the band Austin TV. Check our their album Fontana Bell. I think you'll like it.
Can't say it's doing much for curmudgeonly ol' me, but funnily enough I know the mixing engineer, Tim O'Heir. He used to work at Fort Apache studios.
You kind of have to watch their video to get them, I think.
Or better yet an interview with them while they're wearing their leafy masks.
I "get" them. The video is lovely and fits well with their cinematic sound. I'm just not a big fan of the oeuvre in which they are working. They seems like a poor man's Explosions in the Sky.

In anticipation of replacing my March Madness work playlist (which includes "Windmills of Your Mind", "Destroyer", "Psycho Killer" and 4 different songs simply entitled "Crazy") with April Showers, can people suggest songs about rain? I have about 20 with rain actually in the title, I'm interested more in songs with rain in the lyrics (such as "Sweetest Drop" or "I Can See Clearly Now").
