Scott, This is a wonderful song.

Thu. 12/11/08 12:06pm Andy:

Good Afternoon from St. Margaret's Bay in Nova Scotia! I think that the artist's name is Bahar- not the track's name. He sounds like the Turkish James Blood Ulmer.

Thu. 12/11/08 12:10pm PMD:

Hi Scott! Where's the beer?

Thu. 12/11/08 12:12pm dc pat:

yes, bring back the beer

Thu. 12/11/08 12:12pm postmanpaul:

B E E F H E A R T ! ! !

Thu. 12/11/08 12:14pm PMD:

Note that I said beer and not beef. Though I am hungry and will go eat lunch now.

Thu. 12/11/08 12:14pm dc pat:

D E A TH S E N T E N C E : P A N D A !

Thu. 12/11/08 12:16pm Cecile:

I know how to crochet a panda.

Thu. 12/11/08 12:18pm dc pat:

I wish I had a program that would insert random pops and crackles into all my mp3's.

Thu. 12/11/08 12:19pm Jim Fowler:

I know how to Heimlich a gibbon.

Thu. 12/11/08 12:19pm kent goldings:

the band is called hayvanlar alemi, according to their myspace page http://www.myspace.com/hayvanlaralemi

Thu. 12/11/08 12:23pm Cecile:

they are pretty great, kent.
I heard them last week and was blown away. I have to send away for that demo

Thu. 12/11/08 12:28pm kent goldings:

bruce!
cecile, i first heard them when monica played them a couple weeks back - fantastic stuff for sure.

Thu. 12/11/08 12:29pm JEff m:

nice dreambaby dream cover. Been hearing peeps talk about it. nice to finally hear it. Have to say the song is very Brucish.

Thu. 12/11/08 12:29pm Ike:

I have to agree that the Hayvanlar Alemi track was supreme.

Thu. 12/11/08 12:30pm Cecile:

I will be the dissenting opinion here in the form of a lolcat:
"Suicide: Ur doing it rong"

Thu. 12/11/08 12:31pm postmanpaul:

Talking of building dust infiltrating ones CD/DVD portal on ones personal computer and buggering 'bout with hairy off-the-radar audio receptoroids...
I think I have I have that pop'ncrakle program installed.

Thu. 12/11/08 12:34pm cosmic:

whats up people, scott

im listening. not pleased to have missed beefheart!

Thu. 12/11/08 12:35pm born in the you-ess-a:

i hope suicide gets some good $$$ from this guy doing their stuff

Thu. 12/11/08 12:37pm maverick:

wow, john mccain's lost album! i never knew...

Thu. 12/11/08 12:37pm postmanpaul:

Hi cosmic - How's tricks there?
I'm pleased to hear that your headphones have finally caught up with you!

Thu. 12/11/08 12:38pm Jeff M:

Well, in some ways i agree with you Cecile. It's certainly nothing like from Ghostriders and I can think of many better cover versions of Suicide songs, but it's still pretty decent and sort of channels Suicide in a more romantic and nostalgic way that fits in with the Bruce cosmology. Don't want to get too long here.

Thu. 12/11/08 12:39pm fishmonkeystew:

Hey, I recognize those sampled bits! Alone in the wilderness with Dick Proenneke.

Thu. 12/11/08 12:52pm postmanpaul:

This is reminding me of root canal treatment.

Thu. 12/11/08 12:54pm annie:

reading playlist, watching comments, listening to random youtube selections from vaste fmu hurried notes.

Thu. 12/11/08 1:02pm Sean Daily:

Not even close to first comment! Woo hoo!

Thu. 12/11/08 1:08pm d:

this song sounds quite aksak maboul doesnt it?

Thu. 12/11/08 1:13pm Nat:

dagmar kraus' voice sounded different than it did on the album I have. I fear change!

YO SCOTT

Thu. 12/11/08 1:15pm Scott:

Yo Nat! And hi everyone. Yeah, that Dagmar - so flexible.

Thu. 12/11/08 1:23pm Cecile:

can you hook us up with some Silver Apples, Scott?

Thu. 12/11/08 1:35pm begger:

Thu. 12/11/08 1:40pm chuck7:

Shut up. Love the music.

Thu. 12/11/08 1:45pm ?:

yeah, pavement.........2nd that, can we have some

Thu. 12/11/08 1:49pm Cecile:

hooray!!!!

Thu. 12/11/08 1:50pm Scott:

yeah, I think so - I actually pulled some Pavement today.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:00pm jeff m:

this is a really cool song man ( plastic palace .. )

Thu. 12/11/08 2:09pm dc pat:

I just had to do a quick search on Rory Storm to see if he was still around...different one I guess.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:10pm Scott:

Rory Storm? You mean the one that put his head in the oven? No, that one's long gone. This is a diff one, from NZ.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:11pm dc pat:

the one Ringo played drums for. Upon being asked why he didn't attend his funeral, Ringo said: "I wasn't there when he [Storm] was born either."

Thu. 12/11/08 2:13pm dc pat:

actually wkipedia says something about sleeping pills or chest infection..

Thu. 12/11/08 2:15pm Scott:

you mean that story about him & his mum with the suicide pact in the kitchen is all apocryphal?! Well cancel my damn subscription to the death rock tribune

Thu. 12/11/08 2:16pm Cecile:

The George Jones sings Hank gets short shrift in some circles. I think it's pretty great.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:17pm Cecile:

record, I meant to put in there.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:20pm Scott:

That's why I don't live in circles. Plus being square.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:21pm Ringo:

Peace, love, I'm a putz. Peace.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:24pm Cecile:

I think of you as more trapezoidal, Scott.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:24pm begger:

yay!

Thu. 12/11/08 2:26pm dc pat:

it's funny how everyone has moved on from Deerhoof to Deerhunter

Thu. 12/11/08 2:28pm Cecile:

I wish they sounded more like the movie.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:28pm Scott:

Yo dc pat, sometimes it's just all about the segue.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:28pm yay:

remember deerfucker? 80's hardcore band outta dc.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:29pm deerfucker:

just kidding

Thu. 12/11/08 2:31pm Ike:

That's one of the most overrated, overblown, clumsy, heavy-handed movies ever made. The band is better. Although I prefer their previous album. I like noise. "Microcastle" is too full o' hippie-folk.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:31pm detroitdave:

deerfucker huh....................are you really SD?

Thu. 12/11/08 2:33pm Cecile:

No, sorry, misunderstanding - they just didn't think George did such a great job on that record. They like how George sings Hank, just not how that record turned out. I like the record.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:33pm dc pat:

that's what I was thinkin'

Thu. 12/11/08 2:34pm GP:

CURSE you Wikipedia! another childhood belief ripped to shreds.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:34pm Cecile:

Ike, I think I'm mostly thinking about Christopher Walken's unhinged performance in the movie.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:36pm Sean Daily:

Four minutes to beeeeeeeer... Or at least four minutes to what should be beeeeeeeer...

Thu. 12/11/08 2:37pm detroitdave:

SD you get to drink beer at 2:40?

Thu. 12/11/08 2:38pm Jeff M:

Who originally wrote Witchita Lineman? All i have is covers.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:38pm Cecile:

Jimmy Webb

Thu. 12/11/08 2:39pm ?:

ahh thanks sir. Written down.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:40pm jeff m:

Whoops no name

Thu. 12/11/08 2:40pm Cecile:

I'm not a sir, but you are very welcome!

Thu. 12/11/08 2:41pm dc pat:

I was gonna say, you mean ma'am!

Thu. 12/11/08 2:43pm SJ:

This Wicked Witch is great.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:44pm detroitdave:

Yeah....more like this!!

Thu. 12/11/08 2:44pm bzul:

I once heard Jimmy Webb confess his unease about a songwriting "cheat" in Wichita Lineman - an imperfect rhyme: "time" with "line".
Goodgoshamighty, Jimmy, it's fine.

Thu. 12/11/08 2:46pm dc pat:

Thu. 12/11/08 2:54pm Cecile:

Oh, great, my favorite 50s teen snuff record!
