I'm going to see Kristin Hersh (yes, again) tonight. Whee! On the 17th, I'm going to see Bettie Serveert. Good show month!

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.
Anyone have access to Warren Zevon's "Werewolves of London" that you could email to me? Profile address is good. I have the CD somewhere and can't find it, and I promised the song to a friend who's writing a book about werewolves... (Oops.)
AmyLiz, insent.
Cool and freaky video: Gnarls Barkley's cover of "Gone Daddy Gone": [link]
Thanks tommy -- I really liked that! Though, we should mention that if you have a bug squick, it's really not worth it to click on the link -- animated, but still bugs, you know?
Good point. But they're not the kind of bugs we usually see, but instead are the tiny tiny ones that live in your carpet, etc. I don't know if that makes it better or worse....
a thousand eyes turning blue....
Just checking in to see how Hec's coming with that Halloween mix! I still listen to last year's (all day today, in fact), and I think Zombie King may be one of my favorite songs ever.
Um, what would the musical style of "Zombie King" be called?
Raq, did you see that he posted it? DavidS "Buffista Music III: The Search for Bach" Oct 12, 2006 3:43:30 pm PDT
Um, what would the musical style of "Zombie King" be called?
Elfmanesque? Cabaret calypso? Cab Calloway Swing? It's actually from a musical by a local theater group. The musical is titled Young Zombies In Love by Emerald Rain Productions and they have such other choice songs as "Flee! (Or a brief history of Zombism in Western Thought)"
Raq, did you see that he posted it?
Yeah, but I haven't posted the music yet.
True enough.
Man, I've been listening to these tracks from the Marie Antoinette soundtrack over and over and over. Gang of Four, New Order, Siouxie and the Banshees, Radio Dept. I can't wait to get my hands on this soundtrack in full. This is the most awesome music.
Has anyone listened to the new Hold Steadys album? That's been on consistent rotation this weekend too, and it's really good. Also picked up the Decemberists, Beck, Josh Radin, John Mayer (hush, David), the new Snow Patrol (extremely meh) and The Last Kiss soundtrack (high hopes dashed; it's not a quarter as good as Garden State's was, but maybe I'm wrong to compare). I also haven't been able to take off Justin Timberlake's new single, "My Love", from playing over and over again. Though I'm sure that's no surprise to anyone here.
