Am I the only person that was disappointed with the very last episode of the new Battlestar Galactica ? I mean, huh? Prior to the final episode, the writing and story was top-notch! I love the time stuff, and it's more of a human story (everything from racisms to religion). The idea of the machines believing in God (read: not man), is a strange idea. While the show was a rollercoaster ride, there were a few episodes that sort of went nowhere - but it's still a very excellent show. At one point, I thought it was my favorite show ever because they were killing off all your favorite (and not-so-favorite) characters.

Someone recently asked me who the Pixies were, which really surprised me, because they are one of the most influential alternative rock band in the late 80s/early 90s. I came to know them through their wonderful, song "Here Comes Your Man" from Doolittle. Pixies - Allison Pixies - Allison 4 comments My friend, Shawn, at the time, had become a huge fan and had bought most of the Pixies' releases at the time (Doolittle to Trompe le Monde). I borrowed his albums and I can't say that I really got into it, you know, but I do love a few of the tracks. Particularly, "Here Comes Your Man" and maybe even some of their other hits such as "Monkey Gone to Heaven" and "Allison" (okay I really love this song a lot).

This song was a huge hit for the Cyrkle in the 60s. It's a very pop song/jangly song, and I love it. Note: this song was co-written by Paul Simon of Simon & Garfunkel. I have included S&G's version of Red Rubber Ball here... although there's never been an official studio recording, this live version is just as good.

The sound quality is really good, it seems to have been taken from a radio broadcast. The original concert performance was taken from Utrecht, Holland. The CD lists "July 1, 1991", but real Morrissey nerds will tell you that, in fact, the concert took place on May 1st.[1]

Now, the first time I heard it, I didn't even know it was a cover of a Tears for Fears! The Jules song is completely stripped down and different than the 'Fears version, although I believe much of the credit is due to Michael Andrews who provided much of the haunting score for the film.

Camera Obscura and ABBA both have songs called "Happy New Year", but they are unrelated. Or are they? Apparently the ABBA song is from their Super Trouper LP, appearing as the first song on Side B. Guess what? Camera Obscura covered "Super Trouper" (first song on Side A) as their B-Side to Tears for Affairs 7". You can hear Camera Obscura's "Super Trouper" on Cover Lover.

So you like Beck and was thinking about picking up Odelay (1996). Well don't! Wait until January 29, 2008, because there's a Deluxe 2-disc version coming out. More details on our press page, featuring our new embed W♥M audio!

I figured the best way to start writing on this thing was to introduce myself in the same manner that the music was introduced to me. I was a late bloomer when it came to discovering music that really spoke to me, and it wasn't til 1989-90 that I stumbled across KROQ here in the Los Angeles area. I was fiddling with an old Walkman that my dad handed down to me when I came across this bizarre little song here late one Sunday night (I remember because Loveline was only on once a week back then). I hadn't heard anything like it before. Granted, it wasn't a song that made me embrace the band, but the song forever was etched in my mind as something different, and something a little off-kilter from the popular junk emanating from the more prominent radio stations. It started me down an alternative path that I continue to follow to this day. I discovered the names of the bands I had heard at the roller skating rink, and never really delved into. My parents also finally got cable and I was suddenly able to watch 120 Minutes on MTV. These were the elements that broadened my horizons and made me appreciate lots of different sounds.

DJ Shadow (Josh Davis) is a mixer and turntable artist out in Davis, California. Somehow amazingly enough, in 1995, he made this little album called Endtroducing... (released in 1996), which consists of nothing but sampled music (it made it into the Guinness World Records for "First Completely Sampled Album" for their 2001 edition). I'm sure, around this time, there were other experimental sampling artists out there, but DJ Shadow is recognized as the first. There is even a book about it from 33 1/3 Series Universal Records, in 2005, re-released Endtroducing... as part of their Deluxe Edition reissues. The Deluxe series usually consists of the original album (in most cases, remastered), plus a second CD. The second CD collects any B-Sides or alternate takes and rarities.

When we last left my music history lesson, I had just been exposed to general "alternative" music. I naturally gravitated towards the radio-friendly British bands, but the timing was right for me to branch out a little further. My first exposure to Pulp was when a friend gave me a tape of His 'N' Hers and Different Class with a few B-sides tossed in at the end. (Actually, now that I think about it, I did hear "Underwear" on Rodney on the Roq, I just didn't know it at the time). Anyways, I think my friend was on her way to the Pulp concert in LA when she handed me the tape, and she told me I should check the show out. I was a little wary paying for scalped tickets for a band I hadn't even heard the tape for, and besides, the show was sold out. Boy, did I regret not even trying to get a ticket. Pulp never played another show in LA again. Unlike other British bands, they never toured regularly to try and garner a stateside audience, and we all missed out.

The Frames are from Dublin, Ireland. They must really love touring, as they've released two live albums, and according to the guitarist's Rob Bochnik, he's been recording all their live shows using a AKG C60 Microphone. Plus, they really love their encores. For the encore in Minneapolis (4/17/2007), they had four songs! And I think they do that four-song-encore everynight for this tour, which consists of a violin solo, a guitar/violin duet, and two full band songs. When I say full band, I mean they have a pretty full band: two guitarists, a bassist, a keyboardist, a violinist, and a drummer.

The song is not really about Mike Piazza, but more or less a love song. If you follow the lyrics, Stuart Murdoch, is reminiscencing about the time he shared his love of baseball and how they hung around the Giants' Candlestick Park in San Francisco. The lyrics are very colorful and descriptive.

Just to give you an idea of the lack of organization at W♥M, we have this shared "pending" list of bands we're working on and I guess Ryan was working on Herman Düne, which I'm actually sort of writing about today. Fortunately, I will not be too focused on Herman, but on David-Ivar's alter-ego, Yayahoni.
