Pardon my cross-post in Jossverse:

I'm fiddling with a sidebar for the book on indie-comics and music crossovers. So far I've got:

Victor Banana's sdtrk for Like Velvet Glove Cast In Iron

Dame D'arcy singles

Aimee Mann's "Ghost World" song.

I seem to remember Alan Moore doing something for V for Vendetta. "This Vicious Cabaret"? Something like that.

Anything else come to mind? I'm trying to stick to indie comics here since there are a berjillion Superman songs.

This morning has been a very mellow-Sunday-music sort of day. The stereo's gotten more use today than it has in about six weeks (which is a conceit when you consider the out of country stuff). Right now it's got O Brother Where Art Thou; earlier was Shawn Colvin's "Cover Girl," The Best of Sting, and the Practical Magic and Providence soundtracks.

I feel very un-cool right now.

I just wanted to say that bicyclops is evil.

Mr. Bicyclops was kind enough to send me an extra CD with his excellent Frankenmix - the Philip Glass CD "Songs from Liquid Days" which I had mentioned earlier that I wanted. Except there was one extra track on it. It turned out that it was "Don't Worry, Be Happy" - I had also mentioned in a different context that I had never heard that song.

He's evil, I tells ya.

I have to admint, when I heard that song (after wondering what it was) I laughed outloud.

Anyway... bicyclops, can you send me a Word file (or whatever) so that I can reproduce your liner notes before I send off a copy of your Frankenmix to the next person? If you have such a thing, that is - otherwise I'll just reproduce it from your web page.

I don't have access to a color printer but I'm tempted to buy one so I can do bicyclops's cover art justice.

I seem to remember Alan Moore doing something for V for Vendetta. "This Vicious Cabaret"? Something like that.

Yup -- "Vicious Cabaret" was recorded by David J of Bauhaus fame. It's on David J's compilation album: "On the Glass: The Singles."

The Tripletsof Belleville song is a total earworm. It replaced "Hey Ya" for me instantaneously.

Tina's liner notes are now online here. Formatting them made me even more hyperexcited about getting it.

I have been entertained by y'alls mixes, and you're about to inspire me to make my own. (I work 10 hours a day on the computer. Sometimes it's hard for me to take on a project that will require more hours at the computer.) Anyway, if The Swimming Pool Q's are local to bicyclops, then bicyclops is local to me. Anne Richmond Boston and Jeff Calder are friends of a friend.

I just wanted to say that bicyclops is evil.

Heh heh. You were just so proud that you'd never heard it, I couldn't resist. Count your blessings I didn't yet know how much you disliked "Walking On Sunshine", you mean old happy-song hater ;)

Anyway... bicyclops, can you send me a Word file (or whatever) so that I can reproduce your liner notes before I send off a copy of your Frankenmix to the next person?

Will do.

I don't have access to a color printer but I'm tempted to buy one so I can do bicyclops's cover art justice.

I can send you another color print along with the next mix I send, if you'd like.

Native Atlantan, and still in the area.

Cool!

Anybody know anything about Shalini Chatterjee?

She lead the group Vinyl Devotion. Married Scott Miller (Game Theory, Loud Family), ran off and left him for Mitch Easter. Did an album titled Shalini. Then did a Krautrock tribute record (wittily titled Anneu'ed). Seems like this is somebody I'd be interested in. Jon? Hayden? Tina? Misha? Anybody. Rio?

I'm not a native, but I've been here almost 30 years, which in Atlanta is pretty close. I've met Anne Richmond Boston and Jeff Calder at parties and Anne sang harmony on my friend's last record, but I couldn't claim to know them.
