Jay Reatard, RIP [link]
PLEASE STOP WITH THE DYING!
'Safe'
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.
Teddy Pendergrass, too.
Oh, man. Teddy Pendergrass died? Sad.
Yep, so I've got the Blue Notes on rotation tonight. Sublime.
Teddy Pendergrass, too.
I'd heard he was not well a while ago. Damn.
So, eMusic has just added a whole bunch of music to their catalog, including... Echo and the Bunnymen. I have Crocodiles and Porcupine. What are other essential Echo albums?

Ocean Rain has some of my favorite songs on it (especially The Killing Moon). That and Porcupine are my favorite albums.
I need to check out more EatB. I love The Killing Moon, but don't know much else. I, uh, missed out on a lot during my NKOTB phase.
I was going to say whichever albums have "Do It Clean" and "The Cutter", but that's Crocodiles and Porcupine, so there you go!
In related news, I rebought the Nouvelle Vague CDs (lost the first set on a loan that ended badly), plus they have a third one out I didn't have. I love their version of "The Killing Moon".
