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.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Radiohead Post-Apocalyptic Alt-Rock Opera.

Thirty complete RADIOHEAD songs, played one after another, replace the regular audio of 1976 sci-fi futurist fantasy LOGAN'S RUN. The 17 parts in sequence cover the whole thing.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

Going back a ways - Juliebird, I think that version of Glory Box you're looking for is the "Glory Box (Mudflap Mix)" that is on the two-disc Glory Times (guess it was definitely a better title choice than Sour Box) CD-EP. I'd forgotten that was a two-disc set.

You know, this is silly. If someone could hook me up with buffistarawk, and, dear lord please, some instructions on what to do (I'm a mac user if that makes a difference), I think Juliebird might get the version she is looking for. Profile addy is good.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love

Insent, Frank.

I’d be lying if I didn’t say that I miss them all tonight…

I educated my cast on the existence of the Scarlett-sings-Tom record. They were... boggled.

Also, this weekend, I got to see Mindless Self Indulgence, and they were made of awesome. Insane awesome.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Scarlett-sings-Tom record

I actually like this - I feel dirty.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I actually like this - I feel dirty.

I thought it was an interesting experiment musically. It really focused on Tom's melodies and built a layered pop album around them. A couple songs worked, but not because of her vocals which were supremely characterless and did not really dig into the lyrics.

Holly Cole did an album of Tom Waits songs a few years back and though it was with a fairly standard jazz lineup, she really got the lyrics and did a great job with them.

I guess I should remind people that I put up a ton of Tom Waits covers at Buffistarawk in a variety of styles. So if you're curious about his music but can't get past his voice...check it out.

I really like Holly Cole's album of Tom Waits songs.

Oh! Good reminder! I'd forgotten about those being there.
