Hee. Whups. You can tell I recently got caught up and started using "read new" again, huh? Better shape up my peripheral glance skills.
Moving it now. Tracy Chapman, Talkin' Bout a Revolution.
And the thing is, I like my evil like I like my men: evil. You know, straight up, black hat, tied to the train tracks, soon my electro-ray will destroy metropolis BAD.

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Tracy Chapman, Talkin' Bout a Revolution.
I have that album on tape, so I hadn't listened to it in more than ten or 15 years. Coincidentally, I just purchased this from my iPod Touch about an hour ago and listened to it.
Now I'm listening to Michelle Shocked's Short Sharp Shocked, another album that I liked 20 years ago but only got around to buying just 20 minutes ago.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Yeah, that's one of the things I love about the ease of digital music, the ability to reach back for musical touchstones of times past.
It's an excellent album.

I loved Arkansas Traveler in college, and now I feel the need to listen to it again.

Interesting article, but not sure what I could add to it. Compared to the instruments in the video, my ordinary theremin is, well, ordinary.

I LOVE the vid, for sure. But what does "shredding" mean in this context, I had the idea that it just meant playing the guitar really hard and really fast...?

There's a whole series of videos that one or more jokers unknown have overdubbed with godawfully bad playing that more or less syncs up with the screens. They all use the title "____ Shreds!"
