This is a hilarious performance by an enchanting singer who is quite popular in cinema, too.

I have homework for everyone. (Wow, I've always wanted to say that.) [url=http://vidroazul.libsyn.com/]An incredible podcast[/url] from Portugal was brought to my attention. Via the world of MySpace, this radio station contacted my boyfriend's band to play some tracks. So, of course, I tuned in. They feature some of the most beautiful music (mostly English-language, though completely multicultural) that I've ever heard.

I'm a little late but I finallty completed that assignment. And you were right, that was awesome. From the very first notes of the station intro theme music, it was all good stuff, mood-altering and totally delicious. I had a feeling it would be soon as I saw this image on the website. Thanks.

You know how crazy people are, don't you? You might even be one of them, like me. But, we're not the problem. It's those [i]bad crazies[/i] that are the problem. Unfortunately, there's no telling them that. They run around creating chaos every day, making us us all look bad.
When I get back to the relative safety of my apartment, and bolt the door, I begin the process of forgiving them, for they know not what they do. That's kind of like what Jesus might say, ya know? [img]smile.gif" border="0[/img]
This Cramps performance can provide meditative background music during the decompression process.

I'm listening to a re-release of Miles Davis' Sketches of Spain recorded in 1959- 1960. Nothing beats Miles on a cloudy Monday morning.

Just bought a great album fusing two jazz greats Pat Metheny and Brad Mehldau ast the Metheny Mehldau Quartet. Excellent for those who enthe interplay of piano and guitar in jazz.

Holy Fuck is a great band, but my sister plays for Basia Bulat, so obviously I'll be rooting for them.

Basia Bulat is equally as talented. Very cool. What does your sister play?

Wow, this takes me back to my early university days in Montreal.
Among other things, I am listening to Avalon Blues: A Tribute to the Music of Mississippi John Hurt. Also Chicago IX, which I bought on a whim at the Superstore checkout for nostalgia's sake, and, every once in a good while, Scary Monsters, which could be my favourite Bowie album.
Edited to take out the url's, as I guess I don't need to advertise every album I mention.

My sister plays the very rock n' roll viola. In the press photos, she's the one that looks like me.

Black Mountain are playing in Toronto Sept 25th. I will be at the show dammit! I saw their spin off band, The Pink Mountaintops, when they played with LA's Black Angels (they rule).
Oh and the new Holy Fuck album is excellent!!

I won the Black Mountain album from CBC Radio 3 awhile back, and I've yet to listen to it from first song to last. I wholeheartedly promise I will do that tonight. From what I've heard, it's excellent though!

You won't regret it jrose. It's an excellent, trippy album and I think, judging by your boyfriend's band and it's cool psychedelic style, you'll love them.
let me know what you think.

I'm rediscovering Les Rita Mitsouko a couple of decades after my first introduction.
We were in Arles last summer and couldn't visit the Roman theatre because they were setting up for Les Rita Mitsouko that evening.
We didn't hang around Nimes the night before for the Bolshoi either, just because our ten-year old didn't want to go.
Oh yeah, I'm listening to Adriano Celentano on nostalgie.fr right now.

Public Enemy - Can't Do Nuttin' For Ya Man
By the way, in the video, Flavor Flav in that top hat, white business suit and wacky sunglasses reminds me of Elton John in his "I'm Still Standing video in his white suit and hat.

Oh. My. God. Michelle is right!
I'd forgotten how freaky that Elton John video was. It deserves another Oh my god!

Excellent CD, Stargazer. You're right, I loved it! It deserves many more listens.
At the moment I'm listening to the Into The Wild soundtrack by Eddie Vedder, who I'm going to see do a solo show this week!

Hey, thanks for the tip about Plants and Animals, jrose. I've been listening to it since you mentioned it. So. Good. Will Montreal ever stop squeezing out incredible bands? I miss that place.

What a fantastic show! Along with his original songs from movies like Dead Man Walking and Into the Wild and a few Pearl Jam songs, Vedder also pulled out some Neil Young tunes (as a tribute to Neil Young's live album at Massey Hall), Dylan's Masters of War, Daniel Johnson's Walking the Cow, and James Taylor's Millworker. Very, very cool show.
