Well, if we followed the recipe...should be cake. A demon-violence-free-zone cake.

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.

Are you ready to be strong?

Man, if your fiancé finds out you've got a boyfriend, he's so gonna kick his ass.

Ha. I still have a hard time saying FIANCÉ. He's like somewhere between boyfriend and fiancé still; I call him my Beyoncé.

Do you make him do the jiggle dance?

I remember the crazy days. 500 posts an hour. Nubmer! Natgbsb

the idea of Bob Saget doing the bootylicious dance may make my head explode. But now I think the crazy in love horn section should follow him around everywhere.

Come to think of it I do have a lot in common with Jay-Z. I also have beef with Nas, for starters.

Yo, msbelle, I posted this in Bitches (I think) but I've got a sooper sekrit message for you: I got a fever...and the only prescription...is more cowbell.

Also: BWHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!

FRANK! you finally watched it. I don't read Bitches, so thanks for re-posting.

My brother just saw it for the first time and did not find it as funny as I had built it up.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."

how's the Petra Haden now that you've had some time w/ it?

I agree with the consensus that it's not something I'm going to listen to often, but it's very cool how she found some great low-key elements of the songs to emphasize. It's sort of like a good essay about a great book: when I get back to the original album, I hear new things thanks to Petra Haden.

LJ: I just got the thatdog album recently from a friend. I like it, but I like her solo album with Bill Frisell better. She also sings on a couple of Mike Watt's albums, including his proggy last one. She's also Charlie Haden's daughter, if you're curious.

I haven't heard Antony & the Johnsons yet, but y'all are making me want to.

If I only had a brain...

Hee. I just unwrapped Johnny Cash's American Songs and played "Delia's Gone" while taking my daughter to high school.

I think her eyebrows went straight through her hairline and kept going.

Which one? I had "Totally Crushed Out," but I think they made a few others. I should look into her solo album.

And I don't exactly know who Charlie Haden is, other than a vague sense he has something to do with jazz.

Heh. Where's that boucher?

Charlie Haden was the bass player in Ornette Coleman's revolutionary free jazz group from the late 50s/early 60s. He's a white guy with a country background, who played in (I think) country or western swing groups before he hooked up with Ornette (plastic sax) and Don Cherry (pocket trumpet). He's had a long and distinguished career since then.
