I want to see Patrick's face when he was working with Sir Elton.
THIS.
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.

I haven't heard the FOB song, but I still have an irrational love of Courtney. Yes, she's nutty and damaged and out there, but she was such a fucking fierce and entertaining person back in the day. Hole was so great, and she was one of the best female rock vocalists.
I am massively conflicted about Courtney. I love the Live Through This album, and she was an amazing vocalist. But I know too much about her damage and how she inflicts it on the people around her.
For the record, I feel the same damn way about Layne Staley from Alice In Chains. Objectively, the first few AIC albums are really good. Emotionally? No. Can't separate the music from the person.
Scott Miller, genius powerpop songwriter/musician behind Game Theory and Loud Family has put all of his albums up for free on Dropbox to promote his new book.
Crap. The dropbox account has been temporarily suspended due to the large number of downloads.

Well, I got 'em all if you need any.
Thanks. I think I'll try later--maybe in a few days. If it's still disabled I'll take you up on that.
Now the Loud Family website is reporting that Scott Miller passed away?! [link]
I wish it weren't true, but as much as it pains me to write these words, Scott passed away on April 15, 2013. He was a wonderful, loyal friend as well as a brilliant musician, and I will miss him for the rest of my life.
I am now working on the Classic Country mix. I am deeply tempted to follow Stand By Your Man with Jingle Jangle Jingle. Because it amuses me.
Richie Havens died. I'm pretty bummed.
