Joyce ,'Same Time, Same Place'
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.
You Are Free is one of my favorite albums. I especially love "I Don't Blame You" and "He War" and... a bunch of others from that album. [link]
Damn. I knew that Eddie Vedder did backup vocals, but I didn't know that Dave Grohl played the drums on that album.
She also had a couple members of Sonic Youth backing her for one of her first performances....
:makes notes:
Thanks for the info!
Crushing stage fright, eh? Now I feel bad for writing her off as a fragile indie chick who throws fits. Sorry, Chan!
She had a breakdown while recording a set in the WMBR studios some years ago. There were only a few people around and it wasn't even being broadcast live. I'd say her problem was/is greater than mere stage fright.
It's always nice to discover a new Herman's Hermits song. Especially one with a title like "Don't Go Out Into the Rain (You're Going to Melt)."
Tonight Jon Langford is going to be on the PBS show Chicago Tonight - it airs at 7 pm and repeats at 1 am.
Thanks for the heads up!
Edit - Should there be an apostrophe in "heads up"? If so, where? Is head possessive? Plural possessive? Why am I thinking about this?
I am going to go with no apostrophe. The phrase is not "head is up" so no contraction. And the "up" does not belong to the head. It's more like a short way of saying "folks, put your heads up because this dope thing is about to happen" so "heads up" is really just a noun and a verb. No apostrophe.
I think of it as short for "everybody put your heads up", so no apostrophe. Of course, then it should be "everybody put your head up", since each person only has one, so nevermind. This is the muddle that thinking can get you into.

Do you have "It's Nice To Be Out In The Morning"? It's a Graham Gouldman gem they did in their movie Mrs. Brown You've Got A Lovely Daughter. Side note: if you haven't seen the movie - Mrs. Brown is a greyhound.
Hec! You have to whitefont spoilers like that!
