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.

That's a lot of results! I definitely have a year-end mix for you (it's like Xmas in July!), and would be more than happy to send you any number of other CDs.

Are there any stores in your fair city that carry back issues of gothy magazines? I'm trying to get my lace-gloved hands on old issues of Propaganda. Bonus points if you can track down issues of New Grave OR Meltdown (which is from the UK).

Well, there's The Magazine which sells back issues of every magazine it can get its hands on. I have scored some Gothy material there (including a Dave Vanian cover when he had long hair and a puffy pirate shirt), but I doubt they organize that stuff like they do their vintage issues of Vogue or Playboy. You should call them.

You can also try Anubus Warpus on Haight Street. They carry contemporary mags, but have a bunch of old stock around.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

Just got this question from a friend:

when i was a little girl (mid-seventies) my mom would play the acoustic guitar and sing songs to me. i recently pulled out her guitar and looked through the old sheet music, and i cannot find the music or the title for this song. i have tried to look it up online, but i'm having no luck. does anyone know what this song is called? it is played and sung to the same tune as "do your ears grow long".

oh, i found a little chickee over by the road side
the little chick was hungry and he almost died
so i took him to the farmhouse and i saved his little hide
if i hadn't come along he probably would have died

so i laid him on a nest
but he would hatch an egg
so i poured some boiling water down the little chickee's leg
and the little chickee hollered
and the little chickee begged
and the little chickee laid a hard boiled egg!

Anyone? Bueller?

It seems like the title is "Had a little Chickie" ETA Or "I Had a little Chickie" and some sites say it's to the tune of "Turkey in the Straw."

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

where as it should be called " you are a crazy animal abuser, I am rescuing the Chickee from your evil hand and calling PETA on your ass" or something.

Thanks Sue. I'll pass that along.

I can't even.

It was the seventies. Animal abuse hadn't been invented yet.
