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.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."

Thanks for the link!

Glad to - I just met the guy who put that album together at my last A's game. He knows JZ's Dad.

"We are the Goon Squad and we're coming to town...Beep! Beep!" - David Bowie, "Fashion"

We were watching the one with minotaurs on roller skates where she's wearing a dunce cap when JZ noted, "Kate's not afraid of the dorky is she?"

"It's one of her enduring charms, along with her deep drama-nerd commitment to mime."

Hec, have you seen the KATE BUSH LIVE AT THE HAMMERSMITH ODEON video (I have no idea if it's on DVD or not)? It had to be pre-THE DREAMING (still my favorite of hers) as the most recent songs are from the third album. Both of these qualities are in abundant display. However, so is the fact that she's a stone hottie (not to mention flexible - oh wait, I just did), so it makes for a potent combo.

I know my own heart and understand my fellow man. But I am made unlike anyone I have ever met. I dare to say I am like no one in the whole world. - Anne Lister

Big Big Lights by Sleater-Kinney just came on my iPod. Sad now.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

I downloaded a whole bunch of S-K from a friend who was a big fan. I've got "Dig Me Out" stuck in my head today.

That Touch & Go 25th Anniversary weekend in Chicago that I'm planning to attend in September? They just announced that Big Black will be playing a couple of songs. Oh yeah!

Oh, indeed.

I've never seen that video, though I'm curious about it. I don't think it's available right now.

Oh yeah, she's completely gorgeous. Part of my admiration for Kate is that she could've been a succesful pop star being much more conventional and playing off her voice and looks. But she lets her inner goofball run rampant.

Jilli, did you know there was a video for "Hammer Horror"?

I ... I could have sworn I did, but I can't remember a blessed thing about it, so I possibly didn't.

It's just her dancing with a male partner. She starts off wearing a retro hat with veil. The man has a black mask obscuring his face. He swoops her around a lot and she makes fierce little clawing gestures Indicating Horror. It ends with her posed, bent over double with his hand at her throat. Does that sound familiar?
