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.

"And that's why God Almighty gave us fire insurance and the public defender".

Does anyone here have the Billy Bragg's cover of That's Entertainment? (Why yes, I did ask about it about two weeks ago, but only now had the time to realize it disappeared from my music files).

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

Ahh, the wonders of the age of instant gratification.

I had the itch to hear the theme from "The Scarecrow of Romney Marsh" (starring Patrick McGoohan, and a really creepy mask) and was able to download it from a blog.

That song really haunted me when I was growing up.

Insert joke about redundancy here.

Shir, I couldn't find the disk i was looking for with the Billy Bragg song. It wasn't in any of the usual places I have CDs.

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

This is a few days late, but I haven't had internet access this week: RIP Miriam Makeba. I didn't know much about her personal life (five husbands, and a proposal from the president of Guinea!), but she devoted her life to spreading awareness about apartheid in South Africa, and was exiled from the country for 30 years, until 1990. I saw her perform at a small club in Cape Town about six years ago, and she was amazing; her voice wasn't quite what it had been, but she radiated energy, and her love for South Africa was clear and infectious.

Performing "Pata Pata" on Brazilian TV, 1968

Her breakthrough performance in the movie Come Back Africa, 1960
