That's the thing. You've got opinions. Whereas I have almost complete and total ignorance.

It's called a blaster, Will, a word that tends to discourage experimentation. Now, if it were called the Orgasmater, I'd be the first to try your basic button press approach.

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.

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."

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.
