That is fantastic.
Apparently, up until a couple days ago, milk also had a bunch of "reviews": [link]
But? There's always a but. When this is over, can we have a big 'but' moratorium?

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.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.

"Either it's murder, or this library has a very strict overdue policy."
Wonderful reviews! Almost made me want to order some stuff.

Fandom means never having to say "But where would I wear that?"
I picked up a book this past weekend called "I hate myself and want to die."(subtitled the 52 most depressing songs you'll ever hear) The author tended to stick to songs that were hits. It was quite funny, and had catagories like "I was a teenage car wreck", "I hate her, she hates me" and "Horrifying covers of already depressing songs".
Anyone else read it?

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Anyone else read it?
I haven't, Sheryl. Though I do like a good teenage car wreck song.
So, Tom Waits fans, if you haven't been paying attention, he's got a three disc box set titled Orphans coming out November 21st. It's all unreleased stuff that didn't belong on particular albums.

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Very cool YouTube clip of Sylvie Vartan, Petula Clark and Francoise Hardy on a French 1964 xmas special.
Francoise is wearing black leather (in '64! How very Avengers), and has a featured bit about 3:35 into the clip where she's just unbearably beautiful and cool. Sylvie looks rather like Drew Barrymore here. Classic sixties franco pop.

More YouTube fun (Jilli take note): Strawberry Switchblade cover "Jolene" on a Japanese telethon.

aka "The artist formerly known as Corwood Industries."
I watched We Jam Econo yesterday during my son's nap, but he woke up towards the end and came in to watch with me. One of my proudest moments as a dad came at the end when, after a powerful acoustic performance of "History Lesson Pt II," my son, who'd been watching rapt, turned to me and said "More? More? More?". We rocked out to the video to "This Ain't No Picnic."

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
"We Jam Econo"
Ah, the Minutemen. I get warm fuzzies just thinking about them.
