Wash: So, two days in a hospital? That's awful. Don't you just hate doctors? Simon: Hey. Wash: I mean, present company excluded. Jayne: Let's not be excluding people. That'd be rude.

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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

I don't know if he ever updated it after the advent of the hip hop era.

No. I don't think Greil has listened to more than five rap records in his life, though he did like the Geto Boys "Mind's Playing Tricks On Me."

Betsy, you may like Dr. John's Gris-Gris, too, which has the most ominous party song of all time, "I Walk On Gilded Splinters." I mean, that song: DAMN!

That song's got some serious hoodoo. I really want to hear the Johnny Jenkins version.

Ann, that's a ferret.

I think Lloyd Price's version went to #1, which is a rarity for New Orleans hits. (Offhand, "Mother-in-Law" and "Lady Marmalade" are the only others I can think of.)

Fats Domino never had a #1 pop hit.

Whine: The bag my Mojo came in was open and my cd was gone! GONE! So sad. That's the best part of getting the mag for me. I never have time to read it all.

That's criminal. Especially since I've heard that this Chess set is fantastic.

It looks great. bastards. And it's music that I'm not so familiar with (unlike, say, last month's U2 Jukebox). I've really learned so much in my year of subscribing to the mag.

I got mine yesterday. If you're feeling very bereft, lisah, I could make a copy for you.

ooh. yeah. If it wouldn't be a hassle.

ETA although it occurs to me that I probably have at least one friend here who gets it and can hook me up. I'll let you know though if I have no local luck.
