Elvis Vs. Rain Man

It all began with Paloma wondering about a co-worker at the record store where we met. A bit of sleuthing and I had stumbled on a cybertrail that included Scandanavian Elvis impersonators, Presley's optomitrist, a dodgy German politician, and a military general from Southeast Asia. The bizarre cast of associates of our former associate has left me bumfoozled. As I examine the sketchy characters in my mind, it almost makes sense. I can imagine this former co-worker getting involved in some scenario resembling a movie by the Coen brothers. And each time [...]

The Best Song of 2010 is Not Safe For Work, Children, Parties, The Supermarket, School, In Fact, Almost Any Social Gathering... But Oh My, Is It Good

Cee-Lo Green Video "F ck You!" [Video].flv
Back in the days of historically bad break-ups, broken hearts and the occasional restraining order, I dreamed of a song that would combine the cavity-inducing bubblegum smarts of the Grass Roots, the urgency of primal rock and roll and the screaming soul chops of Otis Redding and Little Richard all wrapped in an exuberantly profane chorus that focuses on the one word that gets daily workouts from all walks of life, but still maintains it's hard-earned bad boy image. That song has finally arrived and "Fuck You" by Cee-Lo Green is the best song you'll hear all year, [...]

Nineteen Eighty Three - Redux

Here we go, to continue on, with this series. These are bands that were formed in 1983 (to the best of my knowledge and research). I can't say enough about 80's music. I just love it. And, I have already expressed, over and over, my sentiments in previous posts. ;-) I think I will continue on to 1984 and then take a break from the 80's posts for a little bit. Time to get back to some more new music. So, 1984 will be posted up on Thursday and then Friday on will hopefully be some new sounds. [...]

There she goes again

Hier haben wir ihn also - einen Riff, der sich locker in die Geschichte der Brot und Butter-Riffs einreihen darf: There she goes again . Irgendwo - zwischen Kakophonie, musique concrète und agogischen Schwankungen - machte es sich dieses naiv-verspielte Liedchen auf dem „Bananenalbum" The Velvet Underground and Nico gemütlich. Doch so richtig glücklich waren die Fans von VU wohl nie mit ihm: „Nicht tiefsinnig genug, zu banal!", schrien sie und weideten sich lieber in den existentiellen Liedern, wie Heroin oder Venus in Furs . Zum Teufel mit ihnen! dachten sich da die [...]

Nineteen Eighty Three

Ok, as the title says these are bands that were formed in the year 1983. All the tracks are most likely not from that year (although all tracks were released sometime in the 80's) however; the band started in that year. My favorites out of this batch are General Public, Wire Train and Beat Farmers (who I saw live in the 80's while living in Dallas). Check em all out and enjoy! mp3 Big Rock Candy Mountain ( Beat Farmers ) mp3 No More War ( [...]
