It's awesome.
Oh, and I got a package of four mix exchange CDs from tina today. I will probably mail them out in blocks of two and two, to help speed the circulation. (fingers crossed and all.)

'The Message'
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.

I'll double check though.
Thank you, sir.

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

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
And you BETTER get your ass to Chic.
Really? If I do, will you have lunch with me? Because to be honest, that's one of the most compelling reasons I've got for going to Chicago.

Jon, your bio is safely in the book, and Kim will update the website.

The web site update isn't necessary -- I was more worried about the book. Thanks though!

In the current Entertainment Weekly, they declare The Clash's London Calling to be the "best album ever." Interesting article (the online version of EW is only available to subscribers or folks who buy the magazine, so I can't link to it).
I think it's pointless to declare an album "best album ever," but they could have picked worse. I'm tired of Sgt. Pepper's Lonley Hearts Club Band being declared best ever, and I don't think Never Mind the Bollocks deserves the title either.
London Calling was my introduction to Punk. I have fond memories of opening all the windows of my parents' Mercury Marquis and cranking the stereo when the title track came on the radio.
It's also the 25 anniversary of London Calling, prompting a re-issue with extra stuff. 25 years? That means the AOR station I used to listen to was playing the title track four years after the album's release.
