Ah-ha. As I re-read the blog, I thought it might be.

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.

OH OH OH! Vinyl, right!
I have been meaning to post here an idea that I have been wondering about. I am looking to replace all of my vinyl on CD (I'm not a collector and my player died), but some of what I have on vinyl is not on CD, so I was looking at buying one of the LP players that plugs into a computer and converts the songs to MP3s. Thing is that after I am doen with my 10 or so LPs, I will be doen, so.... I was wondering if there are folks that would be interested in sharing the cost and receiving the device in turn (orginal packing to be kept for shipping). Anyone?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Can you provide a link to the player?
Just realized my turntable is more than 20 years old....

Thanks for the Game Theory link.
Once back in '88 a friend got a few free passes to see Game Theory at a tiny club in Madison. We got in early (before the doors opened) so there was just the three of us and Game Theory in the bar. They asked us if we were the opening band. They also had food, and one member of Game Theory gave me some of her spaghetti.
It was a fun show, although the place was maybe half full (it was during the Xmas semester break). I got really drunk and called in sick to work the next day.
(Hey, I don't have many "hung out with the band" stories, so I gotta share when I can....)

"Look, son, if it's good enough for Shirley Bassey, it's good enough for you."
Just noticed there's a new show on VH1-Classic called BBC Crown Jewels which raids the BBC archives for live music programming. Looks like it's mostly the seventies and eighties, but from a variety of shows (Old Grey Whistle Test, Sounds for Saturday et al.) Faces, Lynyrd Skynyrd, AC/DC and The Police were the ones I noticed on upcoming schedules.
I'm watching the Faces from '71 and I don't know if I've ever seen a better live set from them. Of course, they were always a hit-or-miss proposition (not unlike their followers The Replacements), but when they were on - rock and roll bliss.
eta: ...and now I'm watching the AC/DC because it's the Bon Scott lineup and Angus is a freakin' maniac.

Heh. I guess more than a few of us downloaded those Game Theory tracks. Shout out: [link]

Oh, ha, that's kind of awesome.
Does anyone have Bow Wow Wow's "Aphrodisiac" they could stick up on BR? In a fit of searching fury I managed to locate all the tracks for the Marie Antoinette soundtrack (minus Vivaldi's Concerto in G, and the original music they used) on various weblogs using elbo.ws, but that was the only track I couldn't find.
if anyone wants it, too, I'd be happy to send along the tracks I found.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

I've got it, but Gmail is blocked at work. In the unlikely event that no one else posts it, I'll do it this evening.

I'm assuming you only wanted the 80s music. If not, I have a lot of Vivaldi and Versailles court music (Rameau, etc.).
