So this week was a big one for vinyl in my house. And not because this guy from LMFAO's video showed up in his studded vinyl underwear: No, instead the new needle (aka stylus for those record snobs out there) that I ordered for my turntable showed up. I've been turntableless for far too long due to a well past worn out needle that just needed to be replaced. Here it is pimpin' out my record player: [...]
So the one or two of you still reading might have noticed that after nearly four months absence, MISB has resurfaced, at least temporarily, for a gasp of air. It is by far the longest I've gone without sharing a song or two since it began almost six years ago (yikes, that's something like the equivalent of the Triassic period in blog years I think). Asking a magic 8 ball about its survival would reveal an answer such as "reply hazy, try again," which is to say I'm not so certain of it myself. In the meantime though, it's got [...]

All that was A picture was A poem was a poem Words were trees of brown of gold You were a place I had come to know If the dark falls early Would you come in the night Would you come with the morning Come by fire or come by storm Laura Gibson - Come By Storm : Beasts of Seasons
Shelter I left you heartbroken but not until those very words were spoken Has anybody ever made such a fool out of you? It's hard to believe it But even as my eyes do see it The very things that make you live are killing you, too So listen, when all of this around us will fall over I tell [...]
Shelter Now there's a wall between us something has been lost I took too much for granted got my signals crossed Just to think it all began on some long-forgotten morn "Come in," she said, "I'll give you shelter from the storm." Waiting for tomorrow's hurricane. Rodney Crowell - Shelter From The Storm (feat. Emmylou Harris) : The [...]

Seun Kuti: Live From Festival Chorus des Hauts de Seine from KF Records on Vimeo . With From Africa with Fury: Rise , Seun Kuti creates an album that makes a direct connection and almost extension of his father Fela Kuti 's work. While his previous albums did a notable job carrying on the Afrobeat torch, with this one he has really hit the nail on the head. In so many ways, Rise looks, sounds, and [...]

Love is Everywhere - Love Tree ubiquitous , adj. When it's going well, the fact of it is everywhere. It's there in the song that shuffles into your ears. It's there in the book you're reading. It's there on the shelves of the store as you reach for a towel and forget about the towel. It's there as you open the door. As you stare [...]
Just doing nothing candid , adj. "Most times, when I'm having sex, I'd rather be reading." This was, I admit, a strange thing to say on a second date. I guess I was just giving you warning. "Most times when I'm reading," you said, "I'd rather be having sex." [...]
A few days ago I wrote about the new Eleanor Friedberger album Last Summer that, contrary to the title, just came out this summer. Last night I was able to check out Eleanor play solo at the Lizard Lounge in Cambridge, MA for 45 or so minutes. The performance was in sharp contrast to the last time I saw her and her brother play as The Fiery Furnaces in 2006. With just her on the stage (if you [...]
