Who's first?
I can't do it from work, so y'all have to wait until this evening. But don't let that stop you. I can adapt to whatever #2 does.
You're wrong about River. River's not on the ship. They didn't want her here, but she couldn't make herself leave. So she melted... Melted away. They didn't know she could do that, but she did.

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.

Wow, I didn't realize "Fly Like An Eagle" had been sampled so much.
After "Funky Drummer" I wonder what the most sampled song is?

Ficht nicht mit Der Raketemensch!
When the Levee Breaks, i would guess.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

Yeah, Bonham's foot has driven a lot of hip hop.

Love the song. What are some of the prominent samplings of it? More important, how's Mrs. Jim and is there a Jim the Younger yet? I didn't see an announcement.

I decided to throw a warm up pitch/practice ball (depending on if you'd rather have a baseball or bowling metaphor) to prepare us and tide us over until game time: Randy Newman's "Shame". Chorus: "Shame, shame, shame, shame, shame!" Randy: "You could be right."
Who's the Mountain Goats fan? Tina? Nerve.com has an interview with John Darnielle.

I associate it with the Beastie Boys and that era.

Ahh, Rick Rubin. That would make sense.

Thanks for the link, Joe. I think I have a new smartypants secret musician boyfriend. (Though I would be sad to let Joe Pernice go. I can have two, right?). I was going to copy a bunch of the interview - it's so buffista-y. But everyone should just read it. There is talk of porn, pop music and the joys of marriage.
