That's the thing. You've got opinions. Whereas I have almost complete and total ignorance.
ETA: The pornographic funk intrigues me; I'm buying the collection.
Jayne: We was just about to spring into action, Captain. Complicated escape and rescue op. Wash: I was going to watch. It was very exciting.

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.

It was very controversial at the time, but in retrospect it's kind of an interesting detour. It's on the Greetings From LA record.

"No Head No Backstage Pass", now there's some pornographic funk. (Yes, it's a real song.)

How cool is it that the guy who reviews Funkadelic for Allmusic also reviews the Lothars?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Our first endorsement is a good one. Back cover blurb #1:
"Scram's Capricious Guide is a genre-surfing Smithsonian of overlooked musical marvels. Without fetishizing obscurity for its own sake, the Guide sidesteps cynical cool vs. uncool upsmanship and celebrates castoffs -- by both the forgotten and the famous -- which exude trend-transcending merit. Each entry compels you to seek out the music."

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

Drats. Both the high-bandwidth servers are full, and our firewall seems to be blocking both the low-bandwidth servers. Oh well.

He's a really cool D.J. at WFMU. He also wrote this great book on "outsider music."
WFMU.org is my favorite internet radio station.
