Just got a short comp from a friend of mine and am really enjoying this. So, I thought that I would share the info with you. So much fun and if you are a fan of late-period Merseybeat and early British psychedelic, this is well-worth checking out.

Just grabbed this and will be giving it a first listen tomorrow. Looking forward to it and was curious if any of y'all have heard of them and had any thoughts/opinions. I'll report back on Thurs.

Me: www.obner.org and, on occasion, when I can stand the tenor of said board: www.hipinion.com (although that one is less and less about music and more about little kids trying to one-up each other. Still, when they do talk music, it can be fun.) You?

John Cale - The Island Years The Judy's - Washarama Tonio K. - Life In the Foodchain Daniel Johnston - Why Me? (Live In Berlin) Andrew Bird - The Mysterious Production of Eggs

Okay, so I mentioned Meat Puppets' "Six-Gallon Pie" before, but they also did another one of my favorites: "Maiden's Milk" complete with whisteling... in (bad) harmony! I wonder how high they were when they recorded that one?

I bought No Depression the day that it came out, so I can probably account for my love of that one in the same way.

Maybe not a surprise, but I miss: Frindle by Andrew Clement Yeah, it is a "kid's" book -- geared toward middle schoolers, really. But it's too much fun and it works for me as a "grown-up", too. Especially, as a lover of words.

It wasn't "The Opener", but yeah, just one of the videos was all that I could see. Will it play like a CD on a regular CD player? And, when the music is good, the budget doesn't matter. The music is good.

Wife was out over the weekend and heard these guys at a bar that we used to frequent. Got the names from the bartender. Anyone know anything about:

funny. No Depression is my favorite. But yes, they are all great. I probably listen to March 16-20 the least, so it was nice to get that one into my ears today.

As my DVD player is missing its remote, I was only able to check out the first tune because of the way the menu is set up. That said, I really like the song. And I really like your band. I will also be purchasing a new DVD player within the next month or so, so I will be able to dig in deeper. Thanks again.

Uncle Tupelo - No Depression Uncle Tupelo - Still Feel Gone Uncle Tupelo - March 16-20, 1992 Uncle Tupelo - Anodyne It's a UT kinda day...

Just needs to be seen before I go out and vote before anybody. A little perspective. Such a freaking great movie!

This arrived today! WOW... fast, indeed! Thank you so much!

I like Radiohead okay, but I'm not a huge fan. Still, I won this from a radio station, so I'm giving it a listen and will probably keep it. Why not? It's not bad.

Dayum! Thank you, sir!

Happy Ashtray - "Smothered In Hugs" (Guided By Voices)

Today, for me I have leftovers from yesterday (The Byrds and Love), with the addition of: Radiohead - Best Of (2-disc limited ed.) I love how frank the liner notes are in discussing how badly the first disc was panned.

Radiohead doing: Brian Eno - "St. Elmo's Fire"

I'll bite! (Some say that I already do.)

I have no video camera these days. But he was very good with the little ones.

Whatta cutie pie! Good karma for you and your family, indeed. Many happy years with your new Noodle. And may your cat learn to love him as quickly as you all have.

Yeah, at the Old Town School Folk & Roots Fest last week, in the kids' tent, there was "Live Band Karaoke, with John Langford and Friends". Seeing the old punk play "Twinkle Twinkle" behind a bunch of 5 and 6-year olds was pretty bizarre. My kids got up and sang "Yellow Submarine" together, but I told them to request (the old Mekons tune) "Memphis, Egypt" instead. They told him, Langford looked at me, smiled and said, "Now that would be interesting!" It would have been, too.
