'Origin'
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.
(Which were pleasant and informative).
I guess this is a good time to note that I'll be leading a Tom Waits bus tour in Los Angeles over Labor Day Weekend.
I'm putting it together with Kim now.
And it coincides with a threeway book reading by me, Kim and Hayden.
After a brief resurrection of my “summer” playlist for the solstice, here is next month’s playlist. I don’t really need new song ideas, although I’m woefully lacking in green, but if I’ve left off something obvious (given the basic colors I used), let me know.

megan - I could send you Cory Branan's "Tall Green Grass", if you like. I also have "That Green Gentleman" from Panic At The Disco.
Either or both of those would be awesome. I don't really want to use the Bonnie Raitt as it is currently in my Stickshifts and Safetybelts mix and I'm trying not to repeat too many from that.
And now you know why I asked for "Grey Ghost"!
Green Onions!
And now you know why I asked for "Grey Ghost"!

comic book/superhero themed cd
I sent the themes for Underdog and Freakazoid to buffistarawk.
In Worlds Collide news, a library blogger I read referred to a Kim Cooper Raymond Chandler tour of LA recently. I assume this is our David's Kim Cooper?
One and the same!
