Sadly, I don't have a working turntable anymore. Looking for a CD copy.

Amazon doesn't have a copy of their first album for anything less than $40. Anyone know where to find a copy relatively cheaply? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gOGH7tTloNk

unless it's his best in 4 decades, no thanks.

I used to work for a catalog who, one year, put the ad for baby changing stations right after the ad for condom dispensing machines. Sort of an "if not, then" kind of thing. Fairly embarrassing. But highly amusing.

I generally agree with you, but in this instance, it just seems right.

"TO BORROW SOMETHING ON SOMEONE" def.: When I loan you something with all good intentions, but you really have no choice but to take it and use it (or listen to it, in the case that it is music). Implies a sort of benign or even benevolent imposition. i.e. -- "You've never heard Big Star? I'm gonna borrow this CD on you; I think that you'll love it. Take it!" I've been using this for a while and would love to see it come into common usage.

For me, the pisser about that one is that I transferred AWAY from MIzzou the year before that show. I was pissed, but so glad to catch them in Chicago.

Oh, and in the CD case, I keep my ticket stub from the show. Love it.

My friends and I just referred to him as "The Taper Guy".He was present at pretty much every single larger small-venue show in Chicago throughout the 90s, with his stereo digital microphone set up at the soundboard, on a stand that towered about the audience. I believe that he got the band's permission every time, too. So, what you get is basically a very good audience recording. Tracklisting: 01. In the Street 02. Don't Lie to Me 03. When My Baby's Beside Me 04. I Am the Cosmos 05. Way Out West 06. 'Til the End of the Day (Kinks cover) 07. The Ballad of El Goodo 08. Back of a Car 09. Jesus

My favorite live album is actually a bootleg of a show where I was in attendance -- Big Star at Metro in June of 1994. Pick Some Posies and Let's Play No, I am not the guy who taped it but, if you are from Chicago, I can guarantee that you know who it was! A great, spirited performance with all the songs that you would want to hear. The band was tight right up until the last song ("O My Soul") when Alex just seemed to stop caring, and the band's performance fell apart. Aside from that, it was one of the 5 or so best shows that I have ever been to. Glad that somebody was there to document it

Yep. Got those downloads yesterday. Too much fun. I think that I like Fred Armisen more and more each day.

Yeah, the skit was brilliant, and the songs were actually pretty damn good. So, I am pretty psyched that he is offering this free DL of "The Best of Ian Rubbish" Loving it. And I love that he actually got a UK domain for the site. www.ianrubbish.co.uk

Eddie Murphy WAS the poor man's Richard Pryor (back when Eddie was funny).
