If you've shaken your thing in a dance club the last year, the music of LMFAO is surely familiar, be it their self-produced singles like "I'm in Miami, Bitch" and "Lil' Hipster Girl" or remixes for Fergie , Kanye West ( "Love Lockdown" ) and Katy Perry ( "Hot n' Cold" ). Now signed to Interscope, the Hollywood Hip-Hop duo is finally poised to release an album of their already impressive catalogue of 'hits' (appropriately entitled Party Rock ,) to be released next month.

![Heartbreak No. 8: John Rich Shills For The Republican Party [80 '08 (And Heartbreak)]](http://cdn.elbo.ws/posts/1433676_lg.jpg)
Here are Big & Rich, in 2004, on what still might wind up the best album any human beings make in the '00s: "People getting' mad on CNN/Who's right, Democrats or Republicans?/I don't care who's right or wrong/I know a way we can all get along." Well, the getting along didn't last long, did it? John Rich actually spent the first half of 2008 on a promising mission, positing that Gone Country winner Julio Iglesias Jr. and Nashville [...]
John Hiatt: Pink Bedroom [ purchase ] Rosanne Cash : Pink Bedroom [ purchase ] The girl in this song wants for nothing. She got her tight jeans, short shorts, import records, Seventeen magazines, and stuffed animals... everything a girl could want. In spite of this, our heroine is bored and frustrated.

Rosanne Cash: I Don't Know Why You Don't Want Me [ purchase ] At the 1983 Grammy Awards, Rosanne Cash was nominated for "Best Female Country and Western Vocal Performance" for the song "Ain't No Money." She lost... to Juice Newton. Rosanne had also been nominated the year before in the same category for her smash hit, "Seven Year Ache." That year she lost to Dolly Parton and "9 to 5." Needless to say, Rosanne took the two losses pretty hard. At both award ceremonies [...]

"...I walked slow and straight and never swung my legs fast and awkwardly like the rest of the gimps who got around with braces and crutches. My main thing was to act and look cool - angry, and cool and sharp. I talked the hip talk of the jazzmen and dressed like Bed-Stuy and Harlem. I was gonna be the first heavy-weight boxing champion on crutches - a one punch knockout killer. Or maybe the first major league pitcher on crutches- firing endless, unhittable strikes." - Doc Pomus [...]
The compilation theme over on altcountrytab.ca this month was cars. One of the participants decided to make a second, Cadillac comp, due to the sheer quantity of songs that mention Caddy's in the lyrics or song titles. He posted it over on the Lucero message board and I thought the comp pretty much rocked my socks off, so I decided to post it here. Hope y'all enjoy it as much as I am. Tracklisting: Three Bad Jacks - It's A [...]

"Love is beauty when it's new." Rosanne Cash ~ Fair and Tender Ladies from Songcatcher performed by Rosanne Cash
TOP 10 ALBUMS OF 2006 When choosing my Top 10 albums from 2006, I considered mostly what I actually listened to. This was a particularly good year for music - one of the best in recent memory - and a lot of great albums were released. There were plenty of albums that I liked, but what good is an album, really, if you've no desire to listen to it? These may not be the absolute best albums of 2006 in a critical sense, but they're the ones I spent the most time with. [...]

Last month, I wrote about the haunting September When It Comes by Rosanne Cash . On that song, a duet with her father (the late, great Johnny Cash) from right before he died, she sang about the anticipation of loss. The theme is continued on her new album Black Cadillac but this time, the subject is the actualization of that loss. And she has a lot to draw from. In the space of a couple years she lost her father, her stepmother (June Carter Cash), and her mother (Vivian Cash [...]
