Buffista Music 4: Needs More Cowbell!

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.

Looks like "Pressure Drop" first appeared on the 1996 reunion(?) album "Today's Specials": [link]

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Thanks, Jon. And thanks also to Scola's ass.

I have a compulsive need to correctly ID the release years of the songs in my iTunes library. Compilations throw this off, since they have the album release dates, and I want single release dates.

I just want to state for the record that there is nothing wrong with this.

How else would my Good 80s/90s/00s smart playlists work properly?

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

obsessively correcting/updating/adding to anything on iTunes is not wrong at all.

'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"

That really annoys me with the Rhino compilations, which are often songs of the 50s and 60s with 90s dates on them. Harumph.

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

I have a shitload of albums (most bought from iTunes) that have the year of the CD being reissued as the year in my iTunes database. Most annoying.

I think I need to spend a weekend afternoon just fixing my iTunes data.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

The Clash did a version of Pressure Drop in the 80s. It's on "Black Market Clash"

Bone Machine

If I listen to this album will I understand the Pixies song?
