I had to download this myself, mostly for the Auer and Spacehog tracks. And TFC, now that I look again.

Ben, I'll see if I can scrape some together tomorrow evening. I'd just send you some files I already have, except that they're .OGG and won't play on an iPod. I'll rip some MP3s from the original CDs tomorrow if I get a chance. No promises, though, 'cuz I'm crazy busy right now.

I thought saying "Kroger's" was unique to Michigan, but apparently not. For the record, it's "Kroger." And "Meijer," not "Meijer's." And a lot of people in this area work for "Ford," not "Ford's." I may be confusing that with something else. What do they call the pints that are half one flavor and half another? I thought that was "half baked," but maybe not.

I enjoyed his stuff.

Yeah, but which one? That refers to several different combinations, I think.

Don't think I've ever had either. Best I've ever had. Honestly, I don't tend to eat Ben & Jerry's on the rare occasions that I eat ice cream -- because we have Stucchi's here in Ann Arbor, and there's really no comparison.

Way too many hits for me (~300), so I'll let someone else handle it, but I just wanted to mention the song "Yonki Time" by Tom Verlaine. And now I have.

The Ben & Jerry's website describes it as "Caramel Ice Cream with Cinnamon Bun Dough & a Caramel Streusel Swirl."

I wouldn't disagree entirely, but when Ben & Jerry's gets a flavor right, it's hard to beat. Case in point: Cherry Garcia.

In conjunction with their 40th anniversary, Rolling Stone has put forth a list of the "40 Songs That Changed the World." I think it's a pretty ridiculous list, despite a lot of very good songs being on it. What do you think? 1. Elvis Presley - "That's Alright" 2. Ray Charles - "I Got a Woman" 3. Chuck Berry - "Maybelline" 4. Bob Dylan - "A Hard Rain's A Gonna Fall" 5. The Kingsmen - "Louie Louie" 6. The Ronettes - "Be My Baby" 7. The Beatles - "I Want to Hold Your Hand" 8. Martha & The Vandellas - "Dancing in the Street" 9. The Rolling Stones - "Satisfaction" 10. Bob Dylan - "Like a Ro

Oh, well then I'm sure that more than doubles its effectiveness. Or something.

I think you're kind of missing the point of the "ignore" option. Let it go.

I wasn't subject to the pre-release hype, as I'd moved out of Chicago by then. Exile in Guyville blew me away when I first heard it, and it still blows me away today. In my opinion, it's a classic. The problem is, Liz seemed to have shot her wad (so to speak) with that record. I've heard very little from her since then that interested me in the least. On Whip Smart, she still relied partly on songs that she'd demoed prior to Guyville, and the new songs she'd written were, with a couple of exceptions, pretty uninteresting. Whitechocolatespaceegg confirmed for me that she'd run out of ideas,

In my day, we had to settle for actual friendships with real people on a face-to-face basis. What fools we were!

I think these have been three great episodes. Yes, they're almost certainly building toward something big, but the writing in these first three has been outstanding.

edit: I have to admit that I shelved this shortly after first listening to it (I bought the original part 1 & part 2 EPs when they were released) and had chalked it up as an Adams album that I just didn't care for ... but this morning, after a couple years' break, it's kicking my ass.

June's Foreign Spell - Spoon June in January - The Rat Pack (Sinatra, Martin, Davis, etc.) "shoe"

Hundred Dollar Pocket - Chappaquiddick Skyline Hole in My Pocket - Sam Phillips Full Moon in My Pocket - Swell Maps Pockets - The Beautiful South Take Your Hand Out of My Pocket - Van Morrison "ocean" oops -- already done "window" cod dammit -- that too. "fire"

So you're telling me that all that fun I had in college wasn't really fun?

Facewhat?

It was recorded. No news yet on availability.

You're forgetting that the new album isn't out for another three weeks. They'll incorporate more songs from it once it's in people's hands. And yes, most of us on this board have copies of it by now, obtained by whatever means, but as an artist, I think you have to assume that most of the crowd at your shows haven't heard the record before its release date. Sprinkle in a few new songs, but don't overwhelm people with stuff they don't know.
