Now playing: Queen - "The Prophet's Song." Great song, if you like pretentious '70s rock.
I got it on iTunes, along with "I'm In Love With My Car" (featured in that Jaguar commercial).
Queen's A Night at the Opera was the first album I ever bought, when I was about 13. Good times.
Hec, you might enjoy this interview with Amanda Palmer. I think I want to use her pick-up line.
That is a brilliant line.
Ooh, the Raveonettes are fun.
P-C: You are probably the only person who's read that list of bands and gotten excited about the Raveonettes.
Lee Caulfield (ex-TTer and friend of many round these parts) has an excellent MP3 blog for classic soul and disco. The other one I really like is the very diverse Fluxblog.
The audio of my show Friday is now archived. Links to audio from my playlist.
Let me know if you have problems getting it to work.
have you heard the Outnumbered?
No, but I will. I know what you mean about Pansy Division, but their cover of Teen Spirit and "Have a homo christmas" are both essential.
As I recall, Jim go to spend some time with Huggy Bear.
Yeah. I was the Huggy Bear equivalent of one of the kids who follow the Pistols around in
Sid & Nancy
.
BTW, Jon, have you seen the tracklisting for the new Rough Trade Indie volume 1 CD?
Yeah. I was the Huggy Bear equivalent of one of the kids who follow the Pistols around in Sid & Nancy.
Did you come to the US with them?
have you seen the tracklisting for the new Rough Trade Indie volume 1 CD?
Not sure. Rough Trade seems to be compilation crazy these days; it's hard to keep track of which is which. Link?
