Doesn't matter that we took him off that boat, Shepherd, it's the place he's going to live from now on.

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.

Dude! Feelies and Paul Auster. Maybe Raymond Carver.

Auster! Man, I wish I'd thought of that last night.
I did have a decent joke about Now Let Us Praise Famous Men and Vampire Weekend, with all the prep-school hipsters heading out to Californee, where the American Apparel is plentiful.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
The Feelies set is over. I can die happy now.

Awesome (about the Feelies, not Scola death).

I wonder what the people in the other areas of the park think of Thurston's guitar playing.

I saw Pentangle play on Thursday night (and there's a sentence I never thought I'd be typing). They were awesome.

How very cool, Fiona.
I've been listening to a lot of early seventies British folk rock lately. There have been a number of intriguing compilations released in the last couple years in the wake of the freak folk movements and Vashti Bunyan's rediscovery.
So I've got comps titled Strange Folk, and Folk is Not a Four Letter Word and Gather in the Mushrooms. They usually touch on Pentangle and then gather in a lot of bands that have been forgotten like Forest and Barry Stansfield.
I also recently picked up the first Lindisfarne album because I discovered they had a song titled "Lady Eleanor" inspired by Poe's The Fall of the House of Usher.
I'll post a few tracks up at Buffistarawk.

Because books.
I'm making a playlist of covers, because I'm love hearing old songs covered new ways. One of my favorites is Rob Zombie's cover of Brick House, but I only have an M4A file, which stupid Windows Media Player won't play. Anyone have an MP3 they could upload to Buffistarawk for me?
Or other suggestions for cool covers?
