[quote name='Duluth']Yeah.. surely thats an intentional homage from SY?<br />
that show in 80-whatever-it-was (88?) when it passed through philly. i think it was steve albini who used to say sonic youth shows were either shit-hot or really dire/...luckily i saw one of the shit-hot ones. big fun.
<br />
One of the best concerts I've been to was SY playing Daydream Nation in its entirety at the Roundhouse to mark the 20th anniversary of its release. Such a great album that one.. <br />

Been listening to the new Tom Waits album Bad As Me.<br />
<br />
So far, my favourite song is Pay Me, but there are a lot of different music styles on the album<br />

Instead of posting a video clip. Here in memorial to Don Cornelius is a link to a great mix of Soul Train classics.<br />

Don C (the creator of Soul Train) died the other day aged 75.<br />
<br />
This is the guy that brought black music to the masses via TV and helped create the coolest dance clips on youtube with the famous Soul Train 'line'. -

Rizzle Kicks: a couple of new kids who's album came out last year to no fuss at all, which I find sad because they're a good time.<br />
You might enjoy if you like stuff in the vein of Jurassic 5, Chiddy Bang, Ugly Duckling or Marc Ronson.<br />
<br />
This video I particularly like because they made it themselves with a guy directing who is a wedding photographer they met at a party. He's shot a nice vid here with a budget of about $2000 -

Pre-release from the new record, just posted online. Original lineup. It's amusing to imagine an angry pissedoff Jaz reclining in his hammock on Great Barrier Island furiously scribbling down lyrics about the Rapture. -

This DVD ([url="http://www.amazon.com/Mothership-Connection-Live-1976/dp/B001F9FHFI"]Mothership Connection Live 1976[/url]) is an awesome time capsule with some really hot tunes. -

The stunning Whitney Houston - whether you were a fan or not, she could certainly belt out a song better than most. She sang this at the Seoul Olympics.<br />
<br />
Very sad.<br />

<br />
Totally agree. She wasn't a great decision maker but she could sing.<br />

Really going back here... to MOTOWN... pre-Springfield, pre-Superfreak...<br />

[quote]This is the elusive single that Neil Young & Rick James wrote together while bandmates in The Mynah Birds back in 1966. Motown never released it because Rick was arrested for AWOL, they actually pulled it the day it was sceduled to air, then all these years later it finally sees the light of day! This would've been a definite hit had they released it back then. The other songs on the album sound similar and some are just instrumental. This does not sound like the Rick James we all know, he was into imitating The Rolling Stones Back Then, and he does a good job! So I refer to him as Rick Jagger! Neil's style of course has changed as well, but wow, they sure did come a long way... The Mynah Birds; "It's My Time"[/quote]<br />

Still one of the best-kept (and oddest) secrets in rock 'n roll history. -

A bit more Neil Young.<br />
<br />
How cool would it have been to be here to hear Neil's intro to his brand new song. "I don't travel with a band anymore..." <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/rugby/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':)' />
