So I've been doing a lot of organization on the book and will be knee deep in it all weekend (and for the rest of the month really). And I just wanted to say...this is fun! Damn, we really did get an amazingly broad selection of music covered here. Classic cult bands, real obscurities, lesser known works by famous musicians, just about every genre imaginable: indie, Afro-pop, soul, funk, disco, jazz, latin, country, punk, pop. I mean...we've got Frank Sinatra
Jr.
and Schoolly D and David Allen Coe in here.
It's a great read and it makes you real itchy to hit the record bins. "I must track down that Potatomen record! I can't live without Dogbowl! Must.Find.Lewis.Furey."
And I just wanted to say...this is fun!
Yay!! That's how it should be - but so often isn't. Yay.
I'm headed home with a stash of new music for the weekend. I had never heard a Sleater Kinney album all the way through before today. Wow. I was missing out.
I also just realized I never did put Hec's mix in the mail - it's all packaged up in my bag still - so I'll see to that this weekend.
Lyra Jane - I'm sending you my liner notes as I will have no means to do it for the weekend - hopefully my mix will arrive shortly. If you could put them online and link to them here for me I'd be ever so grateful. Thanks.
Schoolly D
The ATHF writers said he totally improvised the theme moments before performing.
OkGo, Snake River Conspiracy, Big Sandy, and now Pizzicato 5.
OK Go is on the OC mix too--same song as Erinaceous's sex mix, actually. But it's a good song.
Ah! Thanks. Cool theme, but the show has always rubbed me the wrong way. I can't explain it since I love all the other Adult Swim stuff.
Aqua Teen Hunger Force!
Number one in the 'hood, 'G.
The theme is on my mix CD, for all y'alls' delectation. Which should make Jon happy, since he is an infidel who doesn't like the show.
