Buffista Music II: Wrath of Chaka Khan
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.

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
OK, I've been lax in my duties. I was so offended by the Kenny Rogers slamming, suppose . . . .
Gothabilly and Psychobilly are not quite the same thing, but very close, as you can tell by the, uh, billy. My personal favorite gothabilly band is Dark Violence of Beauty, from Australia, who do a really really cool version of "Ghost Riders in the Sky." I need more Gothabilly.
I have any Voltaire CDs anyone needs copied, up to and including Banned On Vulcan. Not only is he a great musician, with an impeccable sense of humour, and a very talented animator, he's also a really, really nice guy, to boot. But then, most of the goth/EBM/synthpop people I know are, so it's not that big a shock.
Also, what Jilli said. goth and club goth are only vaguely related. And, by the way, I think we should try to get a Funny Goth festival going. Besides Voltaire, there's also the Gothsicles ("So cool, they're frozen on a stick!") and Thou Shalt Not (who do a song called "If I Only Were a Goth" (to the tune of "If I Only Had a Brain" from Wizard of Oz,) as well as a lounge version of the club classic "Headhunter" (originally by Front 242).). Stop me before I sub reference again!

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.

Which I can't listen to due to server overloading. Pout...

Up with the sun
You will have Jon's mix soon and I'll send you a super special mix for the job hunting as well.
Thanks, tina. I think I'll be okay ... the job sucked for me, anyhow.
And I love the Replacements.

Soundtrack fans, WFMU is playing Ennio Morricone's "1970" soundtrack. Don't know how long it is, but they're only a few minutes in (full playlist.) I tuned in because I love the previous song, "Avec le Temps" by Abbey Lincoln. The deejay was in my brain: "Whatever my other thoughts about Pat Metheny are, all is forgiven for his work on this song and album (A Turtle's Dream)." Exactly.

Quote of the day, stolen from a music list I'm on:
Quote from Patrick Berkery, drummer for The Bigger Lovers, after leaving Bernie's men's room:
"G.G. Allen wouldn't take a shit in there."

Hee. I just saw Chaka Khan perform on Ellen. Makes the thread title all the more amusing. Apparently she has a new line of chocolates called "Chakalates."

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

Pat also did an album of noise-skronk after encouragement from Thurston Moore, and a bunch of Ornette. He's worked with Terry Riley too, so he's not your average fusion jazz noodler by any means.
