Are you all aware that Bowie's Lady Stardust was actually written about Marc Bolan?
"The Jean Genie" was about Iggy Pop.
Queen Bitch is about Lou Reed, too.
...and (coming in late) "Rebel Rebel" is about the New York Dolls.
Though, curiously, "Song For Bob Dylan"? About Nikolai Kruschev.
This has been commented on before, but the power of the Buffistas is a wondrous thing. When I go to Amazon.com, the first page recommends "Lost in the Grooves" to me because I bought "The Famous Flower of Serving Men." Even more entertaining is the "people who bought" list:
The Famous Flower of Serving Men by Deborah Grabien
Kill Your Idols : A New Generation of Rock Writers Reconsiders the Classics by Jim Derogatis
The New Rolling Stone Album Guide: Completely Revised and Updated 4th Edition by Nathan Brackett
Chronicles, Vol. 1 by Bob Dylan
Eats, Shoots & Leaves: The Zero Tolerance Approach to Punctuation by Lynne Truss
Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim by David Sedaris

Heh. I do love that Deb and I are essentially cross-marketing.
the copy of Joe Boucher's mix you sent me is totally frelled
Sue, send me your address & I'll send you another copy. I don't think I have the liner notes anymore, though.
I have Joe's mix and the liner notes.
Gee, I'd sure like to hear that (wink wink, oh-so subtle hint).
Thanks for passing along my howdies to the Chicago crew, Hec!
msbelle - please resend, um, whoever's address to me. It appears to have vanished in the Great Inbox Crash of November, 2004.
'Cuz I have CD's sittin' on my desk, and nowhere to send them.
Gandalfe, you send to me, don't you?
(If yes, I'll post my addy and then delete it after I know you've grabbed it.)
Let me know when you have this, so I can delete it.
