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 knew that topless lady had something up her sleeve. - John Prine
One of these days I'll resume posting, but for now it's another quick hit.
Heard a couple interviews on Fresh Air recently about two older, more-or-less unknown country singers, Wayne Scott and James Hand. Was so taken with both that I bought their CDs, and I'm completely bummed that my father lost his hearing a few years ago & can't enjoy them. Sent a couple tracks to B'rawk2, including Scott's "Sunday with My Son" for proud papas Corwood and Hec. But everybody else should listen, too.

Okay, music peoples, help me find a song. Does *anyone* have a MP3 of "On the Amazon" by Don McLean? iTunes doesn't have it, and I don't particularly want to buy an import CD for one song.
Anyone?

Thanks, Joe! James Hand plays at the Saxon Pub every Thursday evening for happy hour and often opens for Redd Volkaert's band Heybale at the Continental late on Sunday nights. Hint hint.

Corwood, that sucks. I could get the recipient of my ticket to shout out inappropriate requests or some such. He owes me; I gave him a ticket for Richard Thompson.

Ha!
Actually, I don't really care. The book will be better without him because I can now conjecture about his mental state to my heart's content.

Apparently, that Richard Thompson concert was 'damn good'. I'm torn between asking for the details so I can manufacture memories of the event and not asking because my manufactured memories often include people in Victorian dress and sea monsters that can tear ships apart with a lone tentacle and who needs those?
Luckily, there are folk sessions on telly tonight featuring Thompson. God save BBC4.

Doesn't that guy know that he's supposed to suck after someone gives up a ticket to see him?

Thank you! I was privately thinking that but thought I better not say so because I suspected it might be a symptom of my rampant egomania. But if someone else thinks the same...
