Candy Mountain - I've seen that movie. It's OOP now and expensive to get.
I saw it in the theater when it came out. My friend's grandmother was in it. Robert Frank is a neighbor.
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.

Cor, you'll appreciate this. I was looking at a SF Giants baseball board and the question came up of what music to choose as your walk-up music as a batter, or intro as a closer. Somebody chose, "Non-Alignment Pact":
You know, Pere Ubu’s classic, ominous, evil-sounding squeals before the song (great as it is), even gets going. I mean, something so weirdly portentious, the Enter Sandman geeks will probably spend the first at-bat trying to claw out their eardrums.
Somebody else took "Sun Ship" by John Coltrane.
Emmett has already decided that if he were a closer he'd use "Thunderstruck" by AC/DC.
I would opt for "Search and Destroy" by the Stooges, or possibly "Neat Neat Neat" by the Damned.
Ha! That's awesome.
I might go with something from Sunn 0))). Those guys make a great rumbling drone of feedback sound like the bowels of Hell.
When Omar Vizquel was with the Indians, he used "Misirlou." It was absolutely perfect for him.
I like "Teardrop" by Massive Attack although it might be a little too lowkey. I just love how ominous it sounds.
IronMan
I have long thought that I should have a consulting business helping players pick those songs.
"Her Strut" - Bob Seger.
"One Bourbon, One Scotch, One Beer".
Oooh! "Atomic Dog"
How about 'Wham' or 'Rumble' by Link Wray and His Ray-Men?
Jon, I ordered that theremin kit!
ION, I am not masochistic enough to listed to this, but for those whose taste leans that way, here are some free mp3s:
Sick of the same old same old Christmas songs? Why don’t disco to some of the classics. Maybe not the best music out there but free. And makes a good present when downloaded and burned on a CD - for people who need a little bit more funk their lives. (Please don’t send me any - I’m funky enough)
