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.

We are seeing Kristin Hersh tonight. She is doing all Appalachian songs. Should be interesting!

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

We are seeing Kristin Hersh tonight. She is doing all Appalachian songs.

Awesome! Let us know how it was....

Is this songs from Murder, Misery and Goodnight, or is it other Appalachian songs?

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

I have Murder, Misery and Goodnight and it's wonderful. When Emmett was little we'd always play her version of "All the Pretty Little Horses" (titled "Whole Heap of Little Horses" on her CD, I think) to call the tooth fairy to visit because "fairies like sad songs."

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

The Pierces were in fact on Gossip Girl.

Up at brawk: six covers, including Gossip doing "Careless Whisper," and a link to more.

Kristin Hersh show was great, as usual. She played stuff off of Murder, Misery and Goodnight as well as some other pieces that worked with her set off other albums. That woman can play the guitar like I can't tell you. Amazing.

Greece's financial crisis threatens to take down all of Western civilization - a civilization they themselves founded. A rather tragic irony - which is something they also invented. - Jon Stewart

I was practicing my bass today and couldn't get something. It was verra frustrating.

I got out Toro's pick and...

Yep. Residual Toro Power in the pick. Dude.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Amazon is offering Aretha Franklin's I Have Never Loved A Man (The Way I Love You) today as an mp3 download for $1.99. Easily one of the best soul albums of the late 60s, and a must for anyone who doesn't have a copy.

'we all walk this earth feeling we are frauds. The trick is to be grateful and hope the caper doesn't end any time soon"

Oooh. Yes indeed. I only found out last year that she plays piano on quite of few of the classic songs she's known for. Even if she'd never opened her mouth, she'd have been a world-class musician.
