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.

thanks so so much, juliana!

And now I can go shopping for some more Barrington Levy, what a fantastic voice and I like his sound, from what I'm hearing on iTunes and Amazon downloads.

The artist formerly associated with cupcakes.

Oh dear. The Sisters of Mercy are touring again. I wonder if the show will be as awful as the last one? (Amps cranked so high that it was nothing but a wall of distortion, the fog machine set on "blinding" so no one could see Uncle Andy.)

But yes, I'm going. The StuntHusband has never seen SoM, and Pete is going with us so he can tell people he's Andrew Eldritch's younger brother.

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

if I was looking to get mp3s of live performances from like the grammys or fashion rocks or whatever that are not officially released - where would be the place to do that now. back in the day I got stuff on napster, but I have not been non-commercial mp3 searching for a while.

Damn, Oneida's recent album, Preteen Weaponry, is great. For fans of self-indulgent krautrock and unchecked ambition.

That's the one with like 3 really long songs? Yeah, quite cool.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Yeah, that's the one. It's really just one really long song split into three parts. About 45 minutes long with maybe 2 minutes of singing in and among the groove. Their last one, The Wedding, had some fantastic singing on it and lots of chamber-pop dressing, but this one is all noise and groove and dynamics. Exciting stuff!

I also wanted to mention that emusic has a free sampler of music from The Real Tuesday Weld, a one-man band of chamber-pop with lots of horns and goofy creativity spilling out all over the place.

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

The Real Tuesday Weld

Ooo, thanks for the heads up! I highly recommend his album "I, Lucifer" and the book of the same name to which it is a companion. Funny in a manner similar to Good Omens, but meaner. Also? spoiler angel slash spoiler

People of the good and the Buffy,

I saw The Gutter Twins a little bit over a week ago. I think I just got over the "wow!" cloud I've been walking in since then just enough to tell you guys this: go and see them, if you can. This is a rare treat, and they'll start another American leg in October.

For those who might need further convincing, I wrote about 3,000 shows review in another forum. Seriously, guys. Go and see my boys play live, even if you don't like the sounds on their MySpace. You just deserve it.
