I just heard that the Village Voice laid off Robert Christgau.
Buffy: He ran away, right? Giles: Sort of, more. turned and swept out majestically, I suppose. Said I didn't concern him. Buffy: So a mythic triumph over a completely indifferent foe? Giles: Well, I'm not dead or unconscious, so I say bravo for me.

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.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
iTunes has a partial copy of Sand in the Vaseline but it has the song I want. Plus some (maybe all) of the other songs I don't have.
I love the ability to just buy the tracks I want from an album....

heard any good tunes lately?
I downloaded a Smithsonian Folkways album of Colombian music that is wonderful. I have been downloading tons of latin/mariachi and South American stuff lately and this is the best I've found so far.
It's called Si, soy llanero: Joropo Music from the Orinoco Plains of Colombia: >[link]

I've been waiting for him to either quit or get fired. I think he has been doing some great stuff lately, too.

The Christgau firing was part of a larger senior editorial/art dept. purge according to gawker: [link]
There can't hardly be anyone from the former regime left at the Voice at this point...

I got a lovely funny little song about potatoes set to a familiar Mexican tune sent to me by a friend, so I forwarded it to Buffistarawk. It's called "Potato" by Cheryl Wheeler. Perkins, I particularly thought that you would enjoy it.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I'm sure I will love it, but will someone remind me what the password is?
Thanks!
