Hey, preaching to the choir. I thought our Lady of the Perpetual Sea Breeze was the real deal until the Divine Miss J walked right through that door and right into my ass—which is where my heart is…physiologically. I could show you an x-ray.

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.

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

Also, where can the Kinks' "I'm Not Like Everybody Else" be found? It was originally a b-side, right?

Correct. But it should be on the reissue of Face to Face. I think you can also get it on the Kink Kronikles, though, which was a seventies compendium of lost Kinks tracks and singles put together by John Mendelsson (Ultimate Kinks fan and rock critic of the era).

I can just post it if you want.

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

Yeah, if one of you guys could post "I'm Not Like Everybody Else" that would be great.

Also, someone covered that song for a movie soundtrack in the early/mid '90s, but I can't remember the movie or the band that did the cover. Any ideas?

eta: Also, Camper Van Beethoven covered this, which I have. That version is pretty good.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Is this it, tommyrot? [link]

edit: Damn, that looks like a pretty sweet soundtrack. I miss the 90s.

Yeah, that's it. A roommate had that album at one point. I think I need a copy of that.

Also, that album's version of X's "Unheard Music" ("Performed by Elastica with Stephen Malkmus") is awesome.

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

It's posted now. I threw in "Celluloid Heroes" because that album, Everybody's in Show Biz, is less essential, but everybody needs that song.

Thanks, Hec.

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

You're welcome. And now I'm listening to a lot of Kinks. Currently: "Ape Man."

I think I need to track down some of their later hard rock songs like "(Wish I Could Fly Like) Superman" and "Destroyer."

I love "Destroyer", as the AOR station I listened to in the early '80s played it a lot.

I like how they ripped off their own riff in "All Day and All of the Night" for "Destroyer." And it also mentions "a girl called Lola."

Give me a mo and I'll upload those two tracks. (My only version of "(Wish I Could Fly Like) Superman" is the live one from One For the Road. Do you want that version?)

Also just ran across this video: Cheap Trick Mariachi Mash Up - "Surrender" (Long Version)

eta: This version is pretty awesome, and the video is fun.

Yup!
