That's the thrill of living in the Hellmouth! There's a veritable cornucopia of fiends and devils and ghouls to engage ... Pardon me for finding the glass half-full.

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I've only received from Sue and bicyclops (and those have been forwarded weeks ago). Sounds like I'll be receiving from Angus & moonlit shortly.

The lost sheep grow teeth, forsake their lambs, and lie with the lions.
I swear, I sent the ones msbelle had sent me (um, the last ones I got from her were in February) several weeks ago to Anne, so it ain't me...
I finally got these in the mail to Alicia the other day. The CDs had the misfortune of arriving right before my mom's 10 day visit, and then I kind of, um, forgot about them.
Anyhow, Alicia, CDs from tommyrot, erinaceous, joe boucher, and msbelle should be arriving at your place tomorrow or Friday.

Rimshot! Uh, that sounded kinda dirty in the context...
Have forwarded all mixes received so far.

I'm at the one end of the UnAmerican bottleneck, so I've only received the Austrailian mixes so far...

Uncertainty could be our guiding light.
Oh yay! And I really don't have much of a life right now, so I'll be able to send them along to Kate fairly quickly.

Just checking in. I have no Buffista mixes right now. Once I get what Hec is sending my way, I will forward it along promptly.
Has Plei stopped reading this thread maybe? Should somebody e her to check if she has gotten the mixes DX has sent on?

Did you ever Levon's This Wheel's On Fire, Joe? It's a great read, though moreso for the wild rockabilly days than insights into The Band.
Haven't read it. Wanted to post more about Manuel (and Helm and Danko) today, but work was busy. Maybe tomorrow. Did want to mention that many many years ago I started working on a screenplay adaptation of Faulkner's short story "Wash," the seed from which grew Absalom! Absalom!, and there was no doubt in my mind that Levon Helm was the man to play Wash Jones. Magnificent story, really heartbreaking. My best friend told me that if I wrote it he would make sure Levon got a look at it. He actually had some session musician buddies who'd played with him, but he meant "You do your part and I'll find a way to get it to him." Of course I never finished it. Worked on it for a while then lost 90% of it in a truly idiotic fashion (this was long before I had a computer; all the work was done by hand & I had no back up -- layers of stupidity) and never restarted. Oh well. Read the story if you never have. It's in Collected Stories and The Portable Faulkner. If I can find an etext I'll link to it, but IIRC I looked hard about a year ago & couldn't find it. Still think Levon would be great in it.
BTW, the the site where I found the "Whispering Pines" page is a great resource if you like the Band. Very detailed info as far as who plays & sings what on all the albums.
