Buffistas

I don't give a good gorram about relevant, Wash. Or objective. And I ain't so afraid of losing something that I ain't gonna try to have it. You and I would make one beautiful baby. And I want to meet that child one day. Period.

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.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

Mick Jagger studied at the London School of Economics

Which of course led to their famous lyric "but what can a poor boy do?/except analyze the deadweight loss when the supply curve modulates downward following the marginal rate of change in the futures market?"

So, what's the best Replacements album? I'd rank Tim slightly ahead of Let it Be. And then Hootenanny, with Pleased to Meet Me right behind....

I'd go Let It Be > Tim > Pleased To Meet Me > Hootenanny. The dopey songs on Let It Be are just part of the "we don't give a fuck" aesthetic. Plus their cover of "Black Diamond" rules.

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

The dopey songs on Let It Be are just part of the "we don't give a fuck" aesthetic.

That's true, which is why I think it's their most Replacements-like album. As an expression of who they were, Let it Be wins. On a track by track basis, Tim wins.

Ann, that's a ferret.

Which is why I'm convinced that, when Mick decided to devote his life to the Rolling Stones, he made the right decision for rock 'n' roll and the British economy.

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

Mick Jagger studied at the London School of Economics.

I learned that from a David Bowie song. Something about a strolling gnome. It escapes me now... I think it was on Hunky Dory.

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

Ha ha ha. Hee hee... hee?

After reading that Replacements thing about all the good albums of 1984, today I have only listened to albums released that year. (Oh, and Tim.)

Wow, that playlist is 346 songs. Now playing: Laurie Anderson's Big Science.

Definitely a good year for music.

Thanks, Jon! I only have two of those songs.
