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.

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Got it. Thanks.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Lyric of the Day
Everyone Thinks He Looks Daft by The Wedding Present
Oh why do you catch my eye, then turn away?
I thought we said all the things we had to say
Shaun said he saw you holding hands with your new friend
How does it feel to know you've just won again?
Don't give me that! Because you were seen!
Everyone thinks he looks daft but you can have your dream
Can I keep that book of yours and maybe this one too?
Oh sure, I'll bring them round tomorrow if that will do
Was it really full? They must have queued there since half past three
Oh I didn't go, was it a good film? Well that's just me!
Don't give me that! Because you were seen!
Everyone thinks he looks daft but you can have your dream
Guess who I saw by your old house just the other day
That kid we used to think was mad, but now he looks okay
I think someone's here, look out the window, I can't make out who
Oh I'd love to stay but I've really got so many things to do
Don't give me that! Because you were seen!
Everyone thinks he looks daft but you can have your dream

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
This fascinating, brilliant 20-minute video narrates the history of the "Amen Break," a six-second drum sample from the b-side of a chart-topping single from 1969. This sample was used extensively in early hiphop and sample-based music, and became the basis for drum-and-bass and jungle music -- a six-second clip that spawned several entire subcultures. Nate Harrison's 2004 video is a meditation on the ownership of culture, the nature of art and creativity, and the history of a remarkable music clip.

A turkey in every toilet -- only in America!
20-minute video
"Video" in the loosest sense of the word.... Still fascinating, though!

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
In recent "I'm working on the ding dang book so this cost is totally justified news" I've secured a used VHS copy of Tom Waits' movie Big Time (It's not out on DVD) and also the Japanese import of Ricki Lee Jones CD Girl At Her Volcano (basically her "Tom broke my fucking heart!" EP. It includes his song "Rainbow Sleeves" which is otherwise not so available, but deeply gorgeous, particularly in her rending version).
I saw Big Time in a theater when it first came out, and bits and pieces since, but haven't watched the whole thing in a while.
As soon as I find my copy of Marianne Faithful's Strange Weather I'll start posting my Tom Waits Covers Mix. Including covers of TW songs by: Johnny Cash, The Ramones, Pete Shelley of the Buzzcocks, The Wedding Present, Neko Case, Jeffrey Lee Pierce, Screamin' Jay Hawkins, Marianne Faithful, Ute Lemperer, Holly Cole, John Hammond, Andre Williams, Lydia Lunch w/ Nels Clines, Tindersticks, Blue Hawaiians, Alex Chilton, Carla Bozulich, Giant Sand, Violent Femmes, Frente, Tim Buckley and maybe Ian Mathews if I pick up that record.

My local art-house theater is gonna be showing Big Time at midnight soon - I can't wait!
Also, can't wait for the covers....
