Stop it. Stop it. Just fucking stop it. Don't panic, this is emphatically NOT about pedophilia. Before you get your knickers in a twist have a quick look at the tracklisting, and in particular the band names, and hopefully you will see why the podcast has the name it does. So what am I really on about? Well, I happened across a band recently called Young Girls, and it finally became clear that after Bear Crystal Wolf Fuck Ghost bands, the new fashion is quite clearly paedo bands. Band whose names, whilst not exactly dodgy in themselves, lead [...]

Love him or hate him, there was no one else like Tiny Tim in the late 60's. John Lennon was reportedly a fan, and Tim was a staple on late night television of the time. In 1968 he released his debut album on Reprise- a blend of American popular songs and extreme weirdness that often veers into psychedelia. God Bless Tiny Tim was promoted as a joke record, but beneath all the camp and novelty there are some stunning gems on this very musical album. This is an early example of outsider music [...]
J.B. & J.C.B. And so a beloved teacher of mine adjusts her spectacles and reads: «Le romantisme est l'art de présenter aux peuples les oeuvres littéraires qui, dans l'état actuel de leurs habitudes et de leurs croyances, sont susceptibles de leur donner le plus de plaisir possible. Le classicisme , au contraire, leur présente la littérature qui donnait le plus grand plaisir possible à leurs arrière-grands-pères.» -Stendhal, Racine et Shakespeare Loose translation : (The romantic spirit [...]
For the next month, The Daily Choice is going completely Bay Area. Nothing else will pierce these sonic walls except for these sounds.

Ce matin, avant que Thomas Legrand sur Inter ne s'acharne avec une cuillère à café sur la liste qu'il juge "fourre-tout non chiffré" de Benoit Hamon, je n'étais pas au courant de cette "convention égalité réelle" présentée hier et votée à la presque unanimité (manquaient les réformistes) par le Parti Socialiste. Je suis allé la lire vers 9h14. Oui effectivement rien n'est chiffré, mais qu'elle est jolie cette liste . Et elle me plaît bien. Thomas Legrand, pour éclairer l'auditeur, aurait pu lui parler à l'oreille du service public de l'eau, de la [...]
RIGHT - lifeboat helpers, thank you very much for volunteering, we need as many bodies as we can get. Tomorrow Mrs. Toad cooks roast lamb, as it's nice and Springy these days, and we get in a gallon of red wine and after pestering the good people of Stockbridge for their spare cash we shall eat and drink and record a podcast and make merry. Our house (email if you don't know where that is) between 10am and 4pm please! In other news it is the eagleowl EP launch tonight, at the Roxy Room. Hairy bollocks that EP [...]

Otsisin allpool postitatud laulu kohta pisut infot, üsna ebaedukalt, aga leidsin hoopis ühest foorumist igivana laulutuvastamiseteema , kus loo tuvastamiseks läks aega umbestäpselt kaheksa aastat ja kus muuhulgas leidis aset selline vestlus: The song starts out: The icecaps are melting, the tide is rushing in...... and that's all i remember of it. It used to be played over Radio KPFK (Pacifica station in El Ay, back in the swingin' 60s. Probably pretty old. They started melting about 10,000 years ago. Yes but it's possible to [...]
I had been so busy preparing my birthday tribute to David Bowie that it slipped my mind that the Chameleon of Pop used to get his birthday cards on the same day as the King of Rock 'n' Roll. Yesterday marked the 75th anniversary of Elvis Presley's birth in Tupelo, Mississippi. Like Bowie, Elvis was also an actor, although the films he appeared in were merely vehicles for his star status and internationally-recognised persona. And, like Bowie, Elvis was a huge influence on the development of popular music. Of course, his music wasn't as innovative or original as [...]
At the moment, three things kind of annoy me a good little tad. Uno... The word 'lol'. A pointless word to fill a gap if ever I have read one. Lol. Deux... People who keep putting "everything, they think, is profound, into quotation marks". And three... that bars close so early in L.A. I won't [...]

yeah, happy fucking holidays to you too! Grrrrr, nothing can kill your mojo like spending four days with your mother-in-law, eh? See, Thanksgiving exists exactly one month before xmas so that you can get one side of the family out of the way before you get to inflict your side on your spouse. We don't usually take turns but this year it worked out that way. Got her's over with this weekend, whew! The actual xmas holiday weekend will be spent civilly as it should .... silently in front of the television, not speaking to one another aside for requests [...]
Let's keep this brief, shall we? Since Mandel and Sam decided that the side two medley from Abbey Road was out, I also disqualified using any of the "Fingertips" from They Might Be Giants' Apollo 18 (such a great album, purposely built to be played in shuffle mode). So I bring you 18 short songs. Some lack lyrics, but all are complete and lovely in their own right. "Our Prayer" - The Beach Boys Such a lovely opening to an album ( [...]
Tiny Tim . Strawberry Tea
A friend of DC9 passed along a link to this news story this morning, which, within it, mentions that a Rockwall man purchased the plaster impressions of Tiny Tim's top and bottom teeth on eBay earlie... Continue reading "Sink Your Teeth Into This Odd eBay Story..." >
You can't have ukulele week without Tiny Tim, and you can't have Tiny Tim without a ukulele. Or so you might think. In fact, most of his best recordings are big production numbers where his sings old music hall songs backed by a small orchestra. Getting the authentic Tiny Tim uke sound is harder than you might think. And there's nothing authentic about Tiny Tim at all. It was easy for Herbert Khaury to become labelled a novelty performer. It was certainly much easier for him than to reveal the scholar and lover [...]
Dent May, and let us not forget his Magnificent Ukelele, is the type of musician who rides the fence between hipster icon and talented performer. Shit, his music is based around a tiny guitar made popular by Tiny Tim, he wears brown-framed glasses more suited to a perm-wearing 1980s soccer mom, and his videos are digital affairs that feature tiny Eiffel Towers and hearts. I don't think my hipster definition would come as a offense to these Southern born gentleman. On the other hand Dent May creates truly whimsical songs that will lodge themselves in your brain matter [...]
