Melissa Ferrick kicks all kinds of ass.
They're doing it backwards; walking up the down slide.

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.

Meara: "I sure as hell wasn't going to a Melissa Ferrick concert, listening to her do "Drive" for twenty minutes and then go home alone."

I got Meara's CD today! I am enjoying it muchly (and copying it to my iTunes) even as I type. If all goes well, I'll get it in the mail tomorrow, or Saturday at the latest.
Yay! Wow, that was quick! I got it to the post office at 6pm yesterday!
AND I got msbelle's CD today! Haven't listened to it yet--my computer's been weird lately, and I"m trying to avoid it freezing. Can someone repost the link to where Jon has everyone's liner notes? I need to bookmark that.
"Everything I Need" by Melissa Ferrick kicks all kinds of ass.
Indeed!

The generation that could change the world is still looking for its car keys.
Steph L, I finally, after much hell, got your CD sent today. Because of the amount of sucking I sent it priority mail, so it might show up Saturday. I also included Elizabeth's CD and liner notes. I should be getting a new printer shortly, so I'll print out nice liner notes and a cover and a label and everything and send that out next week.
Can you ever forgive me?

Thanks Jon! I have 'em bookmarked now.
And am listening to msbelle's CD now, on random. Which is a little odd, cause i have no idea what category any of these go in. But they're cool.

That's the pain / That cuts a straight line down through the heart / We call it love
To answer Fred Pete's question from this morning about "Mad World: -- yes, it's the Michael Andrews version, and it's really haunting and lovely.
Kate - I will print out liner notes for you, no worries.
Excellent! Thank you.
Yay! Kate likes my CD!
Yea verily, it does rock. It's been my painting-the-new-living-room music for the last few days. I'm really digging that Kylie Minogue/Fischerspooner song, among many others.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

Nothing to forgive, silly! I just can't wait to get it, as I'm unfamiliar with almost all the musicians on your mix, and this swap is -- for me -- all about getting to know new music.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"
Tom Waits would also make me inarticulate.
And yet, I've heard from people who know that he's a great guy to just sit and have a few drinks with. Not so much with the drinking these days, but the kind of guy who might just end up next to you at a bar and jaw a spell with you.
