Cold as Gasoline Posted January 17, 2015 Share Posted January 17, 2015 Was picking up dinner from Boston Market to take to a friend's house, and the sound system was playing "Can't Stand It." Best music ever heard in a Boston Market, I'd say. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Some of you in the Northeast may be familiar, our local NPR station, WAMC, uses part of "Pieholden Suite" as the bumper music for their morning "Roundtable" show- catchy as hell.

worldrecordplayer Posted January 20, 2015 Share Posted January 20, 2015 Finally watched Boyhood today. Hate It Here on the car radio while Ethan Hawke's character dissects this great "country" song. And Summer Noon as the credits roll. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk Quote Link to post Share on other sites

uncool2pillow Posted March 17, 2015 Share Posted March 17, 2015 Thanks. Adding the Velvet Underground may have helped, though I suspect it would have only confounded me more. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magnetized Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Somebody told me there was a clue about Wilco or Jeff Tweedy on Jeopardy tonight, but didn't catch what it was. Did anyone watch it and remember the clue? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
KO11 Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 I was watching Jeopardy with the wife and almost fell out of my chair....it was something about "who's album was Whole Love and something about Uncle Tupelo" I was on the phone playing poker.... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Magnetized Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 So the question was who is Wilco or who is Jeff Tweedy, or do you recall? Funny, just as I was typing this question to you Wilco tweeted out the question aND answer. I think the answer was Jeff Tweedy wrote the songs Standing O and Sunloathe for the album The whole Love and the question was Who is Wilco. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ladyC Posted March 18, 2015 Share Posted March 18, 2015 Jeff Tweedy wrote "Standing O" and "Sunloathe"for this group's album "The Whole Love"(Category was rock music or something like that)I nearly fell off the sofa!Got calls from 2 friends saying your group was on jeopardy!Took pic, will try to post it later.
