Noice! Looking forward to this one!

Happy, happy! Joy Joy!

Hope it was a great one!

The first review of the album just arrived in my mailbox, and it is a WONDERFUL one! LINK Sigh... thanks LMNOP/Babysue people.

The Sex Pistols - Never Mind the Bollocks... Played it for my 10-year-old yesterday and he freaked out. In fact, later on, he insisted on listening to it while taking a shower. I put the boom box in the bathroom, away from the shower, by the bathroom door and, while I was folding laundry in the next room, could I hear him rocking out, singing along to whatever he (thought he) could understand. At one point, he even poked his head, out from behind the shower curtain, sporting a shampoo mohawk. He had a huge smile on his face, knowing how ridiculous it all was... "MY BEAUTFUL SELF-ISH!!!" L

Congratulations!

You can't alter history. Unless you have a flux capacitor.

whoops. I thought that I remembered hearing that he did. But that news was just, apparently, the exact opposite: he has a new album out. Sorry. That was a really shitty mistake.

Rest in peace.

Dancing Partner by Joe Pisapia The day I went to visit her Soon after she turned ninety-four The coffee and the Entenman's We talked as if we were old friends She filled me in on gossip All the seniors in the complex We talked about the days gone by And then she told me with a sigh, It's been twenty-seven years He's passed away It still feels like yesterday The conversation turned to love As any long talk always does She asked about my situation Was there someone I was dating I told her of a pretty girl Who's teaching me to dance She told me how she love to dance But only with one ma

I think that opinion stems more from overplay than anything else. It's certainly not my favorite Chuck Berry song either (that would be "You Never Can Tell"). But, that opening riff alone makes it his greatest, period.

Tell me why it's NOT "Johnny B. Goode" and I'll tell you why you're wrong. Johnny B. Goode may not be the first rock n roll song ever recorded, but it is Ground Zero for all rock n roll that came after.

Okay, so not so brand new, but... "If You're Wondering If I Want You To (I Want You To)" I'm not the biggest Weezer fan, a couple of songs from the first one are still fun to listen to. Other than that they pretty much define "meh". And (more than) occasionally suck. But the chorus in that new song is fucking epic. I am not tempted to buy the record (yet). But, damn that new single is so freaking good. One of those songs that I am compelled to sing along to in the car.

I was just about to make that point.

Fantomas - Amenaza al Mundo Joe Pisapia - Daydreams Self - Gizmodgery Wire - Pink Flag Souled American - Around the Horn That Fantomas record is kicking my ass all over the place. I really need to get into more Patton stuff; he is woefully unrepresented in my music collection.

Being at work, I cannot see your video, so I don't know what song you posted. But, for my money, it's probably one of these: "Ju Ju Man" by Jim Ford (as performed by Brinsley Schwarz) "Johnny B. Goode" by Chuck Berry "Rocks Off" by The Rolling Stones "War Pigs" by Black Sabbath "Black Dog" by Led Zeppelin That is, assuming that we are talking about ROCK and not just popular music of the rock era.

I've had a few people recommend this guy to me at various points in time. I really should get around to listening to some of his stuff. Is this record a good place to start or are there other records that would be better? Thanks for reminding me, by the way.
