I just mailed a double CD to Japan this morning and it was under $4. Big shoutout to the 50s-ish African-American dude behind me in line at the post office who was a heavy mouth-breather and had a polyphonic Skynyrd ringtone.

I ride. It's not my favorite kind of track from him but I respect that 20 years into his career he's still experimenting with new styles of production and new flows. Lyrically I think Quik's verses are great and I found a lot of th…

Along with "Let Me Down Easy", these are my two favorites from her: "You'll Never Change" (Atlantic, 1963) "Almost" (Karen, 1968)

I like several eras of their music (the early pop stuff, the compulsively over-arranged studio lunacy of the mid-60s, the basket-case goofiness of 1977's Love You album), but for me their sweet spot is Wild Honey-- great songs arranged in relatively…

I'm sorry, what was the question again? I must have dozed off.

Thanks, Herm-- he has some great stories. This caught my attention: For the record, 'In My Lifetime' was Jay-Z's second official solo single. His first was 'I Can't Go For That,' which Dame and 'em dropped from out the back of their tr…

planless said:any idea about the sound from 0:00 to 0:19 It's been 15+ years since I listened to the record and I no longer have a copy so I can't check, but I think it's from Jimmy Owens's "No Escaping It" LP: http://www.disc…

By and large Bay Area BBQ is really awful. I think most of the places I've tried have no concept of what good BBQ should be like and instead they seem to just cook meat until it's dry and tough and then try to disguise its dryness and lack of flavo…

I've always wondered about this one: Missin' Linx: What It Is Such a great bassline.

Happy birthday!

So, people who like this, what exactly do you like about it? Cee-Lo's voice is a great instrument but otherwise the appeal of the song is lost on me.

I hadn't shopped there in a decade but it's still sad to me. They had a good run but their era is long passed. Noz wrote something thoughtful about the closing: http://tumblinerb.com/post/972721373/breaking-news-fat-beats-closes-remaining

Reminds me of this classic: I'd say James Brown probably has enough WTF moments to fill a comparable LP.

I will never hear that song again without laughing my ass off when it gets to "there's a funk in the breezeway".

I'm enjoying this season. Don's humiliation makes the show feel less like an escapist fantasy. I particularly liked Sunday's episode-- there was loads of Joan, the Howdy Doody line and movie theater scene made me fall out, and the Dick &…

He needs a lyricist. I like the track, though.
