I left home with the Mets up 3-1 on Teh Barves in the 8th.

Ugh..another win? The White Sox really aren't this good.

Cubs/Chisox WS?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 5:21pm Uncle Michael:

Cubbies dished out another ass-whipping. 9-0 over the Reds. Of course, they got clobbered last night. But that's cool, following their five losses, they've outscored their opponents 40-4.

Best/worst case scenario, Gaylord!

I adore this America track.

Play all the songs that mention purple rain and predate Prince!

Might be the rare case where Karen's version of something is not my very favorite.

I scored a copy of the "Superstar" 7-inch in Chicago a few years ago.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 5:51pm Uncle Michael:

I think Rita Coolidge recorded the definitive version...but they're actually *all* very good.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 5:51pm Sem Chumbo:

Someone once said James Taylor had a voice that was the vocal equivalent of being photogenic; Karen Carpenter had that voice, too, I think.
Avatar Swag For Life Member Sun. 4/24/16 5:52pm BadGuyZero:

I don't think I've ever heard Rita's version. I'm adding that to my list of things to find on the interwebs.
  Sun. 4/24/16 5:52pm famous original sugarwolf:

One nice thing about the internet is that Todd Haynes' Superstar has been easier to find and watch.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 5:52pm Uncle Michael:

I literally heard Rumer for the first time just yesterday. This woman is the real deal.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 5:53pm melinda:

I'll have to look up the Rita Coolidge version. Great segue from Karen Carpenter to Rumer.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 5:53pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

...& who's the guy hasta mention Sonic Youth's version of 'Superstar'?
...If I said 'Superstar' w/ Karen C has more depth than anything P.R. Nelson did - I would be in trouble, wouldn't I...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 5:54pm Gaylord Fields:

@famous original sugarwolf: I have a second-gen copy I got from Christine Vachon's cousin -- on VHS!
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 5:54pm melinda:

@sugarwolf: where is Superstar available?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 5:55pm melinda:

@Gaylord: go ahead, rub it in. That's awesome.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 5:55pm Gaylord Fields:

@melinda: Legally, almost nowhere, but otherwise, a simple search can turn it up.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 5:56pm Monica:

gorgeous segue, gaylord. you turned me onto rumer. btw, i read last night that the 12 songs writer/producer/sample credits for beyonce's new lemonade album are 3,105 words long. no judgement but it's a stark contrast to his purpleness and, well, just about anyone from an earlier era.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 5:57pm Gaylord Fields:

@Monica: As far as learning, that's one for me, and dozens for you.

And good point on the Beyonce vs. Prince.
  Sun. 4/24/16 5:57pm famous original sugarwolf:

@melinda: I think I saw it on youtube
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 5:58pm Gaylord Fields:

@Revolution Rabbit Nov63: You might, rabbit, you might...
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 6:00pm Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

I think of Dave Chappelle saying he hung w/ Prince - & - he cooked a better breakfast, the little guy kicked his butt @ basketball...As far as being capable goes - Prince was one of Those: a person who had something unique beyond what we usually mean even by 'talent' or 'genius'...

You didn't mention "Ventura Highway" which you played for a reason.

thanks Gaylord & sugarwolf. I'll look for it.
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 6:05pm Gaylord Fields:

@Jonathan: I did -- and even referenced "purple rain"!

i hate to admit it, but i liked morris day and the time better in 'purple rain'

Maybe that was when my signal dropped out. I'll give a listen to the archived version.

...there's GuitarPop, PowerPop

@GF (Somewhat randomly): Are you a fan of Neil Finn's 'Try Whistling This' album?
Avatar Swag For Life Member ♥   Sun. 4/24/16 6:44pm Gaylord Fields:

@Revolution Rabbit Nov63: Don't really know that Neil Finn record -- just know of it.

Also: Try googling [po + "ruth miller"] for more meaningful results.
