Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach  

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.

I wish I could just go somewhere to get flensed but none of the whaling ships near me take Medicare.

Luckily, I haven't lost iPod data yet. And since I've only recently gotten one and am still growing into its capability, I don't know that the loss of tags would hit me quite as hard. But I sympathize, tina.

Look what I found while searching for lyrics on the web tonight! A very cool audio blog. Including an MPEG clip of Darlene Love serenading Don Knotts in "The Love God". She archives stuff after a while, so get it while it's hot.

Is it possible to back up iTunes playcounts and so on by copying off the iTunes Music Library file?

It may be. When I switched my Library from my iMac to my Powerbook, I used the Migration Assistant utility in Tiger. The whole point of that feature is to "seamlessly" copy over preferences and settings from your old Mac to new. So you would think it would have kept my iTunes info is possible, right? But maybe I did something wrong.

Thanks for all the sympathy. I still feel like I am missing an arm.

What is even happening?

The Boston Globe's rock critic of 30 years, recently retired. He wrote a piece for the Sunday Globe's Magazine, on some of the highlights of his career. It was a fun read. I thought people might enjoy: [link]

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

I'm sorry, but I found Steve Morse to be incredibly narrow minded in his musical tastes. He always was way too slow to come around to anything new that sounded different from the classic rock he grew up with.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!

OK, I just read the article. He writes, re: John Lennon, "I still wonder what rock 'n' roll would be like if he were alive today." Oh, please. I also cried the morning I learned he had died, but Double Fantasy was hardly groundbreaking. He would have continued to write some great songs, but he wouldn't have changed the face of music.

Boy, I'm curmudgeonly today, ain't I?

You're just upset that Bono never crashed one of your parties.

Or that Steve never invited me....

Hey! That means I have something in common with Bono!

Other than the sunglasses and Nobel Prize nomination?

I suspect Bono has also donned silver pleather at some point in his life as well.
