Speaking of Ian - he was interviewed on Morning Edition today for a story about Jenny Toomey. Read and listen here.
Cool, I'll have to download that.
'Not Fade Away'
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.

Listening to the new Al Green disc, his first album of secular music in years. Holy shit, The Reverend is still fantastic. Makes your butter melt.

Thanks for the heads up, David. Email's on its way. I expect a wave of Chic-love to spread through the Buffistas once my mix shows up... Okay, maybe not. But it should. They're great and "26" is a great tune.
I am in posession of Mr. Boucher's mix and will be listening to it throughout the day. I feel that my day of data entry and address look-ups will be greatly improved with this music.
This gets my vote for Stupidest Music List Ever
One Hundred Albums You Should Remove from Your Collection Immediately
I disagree with the entire concept of there being albums you SHOULD or SHOULD NOT own - I mean - who cares? And yet, it exists therefore I link to it.
Yep, it's stupid. I mean, I feel the same hatred towards some of those albums, but others are pretty damn great albums.
Heh. Yeah, it's lame and I really love a lot of the albums on there, but some of the descriptions are kind of funny, like the Sarah McLachlan:
"Flip a coin. You get to keep one. You know it doesn't matter which." Or something to that effect.
But at least I get to keep my Clay Aiken and Kelly Clarkson CDs! Thank heavens!
but some of the descriptions are kind of funny
Agreed, they are. I am unaffected by the funny due to the Built to Spill and Beastie Boys hate throughout, I think.
