  1. "Acoustic Guitar" by The Magnetic Fields Acoustic Guitar, I'm gonna make you a star, Get your picture all over the world Acoustic Guitar, You can have your own car, Just bring me back my girl She always loved the sound of your strum You made her think maybe I wasn't so dumb She tends to faint at the sound of a drum Cuz she's folk so play and maybe she'll come Acoustic Gutiar, how lovely you are With your inlays of mother of pearl Be a good guitar and you could go far Just bring me back my girl She always said that you were the one That could make her move her cute little bum You unde
  2. And you warrant a BIO, too. By the way, the reviews make me want to buy your albums... sound right up my alley.
  3. I forgot about that one. It may make my Top 5 when all is said and done, but is certainly Top 10.
  4. Binghamton, NY (I think it's 1970... the one that's on the Dick's Picks?)
  5. Listening to your stuff up at MySpace and I am loving it. I think that your issue re: reviews is the fact that you don't have a label pushing for you.
  6. The "New York Doll" thread inspired me to post about this one. Any of y'all seen it? There is no dialogue. Essentially, it's just scenes of Gypsies across the world (mostly in Europe and the northern Middle East) going about their daily lives; but it's all set to a soundtrack of traditional Gypsy music. It's very touching and compelling and I have not seen it in more than ten years and I need to go find a place that actually has a copy and actually go rent it because I do not have Netflix and I know that this is a run-on sentence but, as Pee-Wee Herman says: "I meant to do that".

  7. 11/13/07: Richard Thompson - 1000 Years of Popular Music Emmitt Rhodes - Daisy-Fresh From Hawthorne, CA Radiohead - OK Computer Jonathan Richman - Havin' a Party With Jonathan Richman The Pixies - Trompe Le Monde
  8. Dave seems like a really cool guy. Every time I see him talking (interviewed, stage banter, whatever) I think that he would just be a great guy to hang out with. I just don't like his music. I wish that I did, because I like him. But, just... But he did go about his career the right way. Constant touring and grassroots support. Anyway. Love for the man. Wish I liked his music.
  9. 5 UU's: http://wm05.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&...11:kxftxqlgldae And that's some nice writeups, there. Very nice, indeed.
  10. Once again, is THIS you?: http://wc07.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&...11:dvfyxq9gldae Been active!
  11. www.iacmusic.com Search by genre, name. Here are some of the folks that I really like: www.iacmusic.com/steveison www.iacmusic.com/hughhamilton www.iacmusic.com/invisibleinc There are also a few "name" artists up there, too: Willie Nelson, Johnny Cash, XTC, Aimee Mann, Tom Waits, Frank Black, etc., etc. And I've put together a station (always changing) where I've collected a few of my favorite tunes: www.iacmusic.com/thegoodstuff It's all streaming, but pretty high-quality audio.
  12. HERE is your link: http://wm03.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&...11:wifqxqwrldke Sometime you gotta play with it a bit before you get the right address. And... how long ago did you release the record? Sometimes they're a little slower in getting the smaller indie reviews up there.
  13. np: Wizz Jones - http://www.wizzjones.com/download.html
  14. For my money, the best directors working today are known as animators: Tim Burton Brad Bird Seriously, Brad Bird is unfuckwithable: The Iron Giant, The Incredibles, Ratatouille Sorry. No duds. The guy is amazing.
  15. Damn, you're right. Still, I like the tunes he did with BBQ Show, too. (But I'm not as familiar with that project.) What the hell, I'll have to pick up that album, too.
  16. No. You're probably right. But, um, maybe it would be cool to see AllMusic listings here, anyway. I know that there are a couple of folks here. Riviera guys? I think they post here? And I think that they have a listing. EDIT: Here is how you can submit your band's music http://wc07.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&...ubmissions.html
  17. Brian May is a god. Freddie Mercury can sing anything. The first few albums are godhead. And the forst thing my kid's do whenever confronted with a drum kit that they are allowed to play, is band out "We Will Rock You".
  18. I just think that AllMusic.com is pretty much the bible of music on the internet. Objective. And as complete as any resource. Essentially, I felt that if I could get a listing on there, that I would have made my mark. Not only did I get a listing, but I got a review! In my eyes, it pretty much validated me as a musician. Hop On Pop - As Drawn By Ethan, Age 2 http://wc07.allmusic.com/cg/amg.dll?p=amg&...10:gjftxqrald6e It's positive, but fair -- and not glowing. Still, again, I feel validated. I would love to see any listings/reviews that y'all have up on that site. Consider this thre
  19. You inspired me to make some chili last night. As I said earlier, I never measure, but I can give you approximates: 1 LARGE YELLOW ONION, chopped 3 cloves of GARLIC, chopped -saute above in about 2 tsp. of vegetable oil, until onions are translucent. -add 1.5 lbs. (approx.) GROUND BEEF Seasoned with SALT, PEPPER, GARLIC POWDER, and ONION POWDER (all to taste) -cook over medium/high heat until mostly done Add 3 cans of DICED TOMOTOES and 1.5 medium (or 1 large) FRESH TOMATOES Simmer for a few minutes, then add 2 cans of RED KIDNEY BEANS (drained) Season with: GARLIC POWDER ONION POWDER CHILI
  20. King Khan and The Shrines has released my favorite album of 2007. And they're playing The note, as noted in the topic title above. They do a great garage/psych thing and -- very authentic sounding. Think 13th Floor Elevators meet White Stripes at Motown, and you'll pretty much have it. Anyone? I don't belive that I've met any of you (except for the folks that brought me here), and it would be cool to put some faces to names. Plus, it promises to be a great show. Here's their myspace: www.myspace.com/kingkhantheshrines
  21. Caught the last half of this on Friday night. The performace was great, but Jeff just looked tired. Made me concerned about him. Just... not healthy. Great performance, though.
  22. It depends on the weather and the time of day, really. But, in general, some of my faves: Cheap Trick - At Budokon Judas Priest - Point Of Entry The Clash - London Calling Apples In Stereo - Tone Soul Revolution The Harder They Come (OST) Or anyting that I could sing along with at the top of my lungs.
