This is pretty similar -- arrangement-wise -- to Dan Penn's own version (on Do-Right Man), but... that voice is what makes it super-special. Wow.

Listening to the live Dan Penn/Spooner Oldham album now. A quote from Dan Penn: "People ask me which version of 'Dark End of the Street' is my favorite. As if there is any other version than James Carr's; not even my own." I'm gonna have to get this album: And soon.

His father is gonna kick his ass. You don't make the same mistakes that your parents did and not expect an ass whooping. Here's hoping that he gets his shit together.

Just bought Monkey Man. I'll get From the Roots after my next paycheck (and after my birthday, when I'll probably get some birthday cash)! Thanks for the advice!

Oh, I'll just pick up the albums. That is, unless they are really hard to find/expensive. The Trojan reissues... thanks!

What do you think of this one? I've been wanting to get a little deeper into the Maytals' discog (after Funky Kingston and In the Dark), but don't really know where to go next. This a good one?

Mr. Rogers rules. A lot. Here he is asking a cynical Congress for funding for PBS in 1969, and getting ALL OF IT, in less than 7 minutes. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yXEuEUQIP3Q

My heartfelt sympathy to you and your family.

Did you read the interview?

It was a performance, not a real meltdown. Interesting interview. http://blogs.suntimes.com/ebert/2010/09 ... ut_im.html Looking forward to seeing/hearing/reading interviews with Phoenix about the flick. Now I think that I may have to actually see this.

PM me, please.

"Whiskey" (I can't help but think of this every time I see the topic.)

Self - Porno, Mint and Grime

Maybe the best song of 2010. Definitely the best video of the year. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oXy_wxgIe7A

I was there (at the very last show), but was sitting on the lawn. So, thanks for this! EDIT: And I recognize the Grant Park stage, but where is the other footage from?

Yes.

I tried to keep it all in my head, and I know that some of these are in other posts, but in case there are some that were missed (and, repeating myself, too), here is my complete list of favorites (in no particular order): Rock n' Roll High School A Hard Day's Night Fabricando Tom Zé Nico Icon The Decline of Western Civilization This is Spinal Tap The Devil and Daniel Johnston Theremin: An Electronic Odyessy Woodstock And, anxiously awaiting the Harry Nilsson documentary that's supposedly coming out soon. The worst (since you asked): Kiss and the Phantom of the Park Sargent Pepper's Lon

Happy autumn, folks!

YEah. You are right. And, it's not going to be anything else, I suppose. Mods: Please delete thread. Thanks. And sorry to the board.
