Good stuff, Craig, thanks. I should have mentioned Siouxsie, there is a wealth of stuff over there.

Really interesting Freddie entry from 1966 … -
I am getting my UK punk together - have covered the Jam, Magazine, the Buzzcocks, and Generation X. Am aware of the the big X-Ray Spex set - figuring out my strategy for Stiff Little Fingers. What am I missing?

Thanks for the reminder, Prof. If you like this one, you might enjoy Bennie Maupin's "The Jewel in the Lotus" - a favorite o… -
(Quote) That. Not necessarily the 'ending' per se, but they were so flailing about in the last season or two that I lost confidence. A major reason being Starbuck's death/resurrection - Outside of soap operas and comic books, that trick has onl…

Don't fear the sneer! I am being selective, guided by a greatest hits album (not on Gu). In search, one uppercase X and one… -
I have often-obscure pop songs "pop" into my head in response to everyday situations. Yesterday it was "Cool Cool Water" by the Beach Boys ("In an ocean/In a glass/Cool water is such a gas!") in response to the Marco Rubio water-drinking thing.

While I realize using "Comments" for album personnel isn't a perfect solution, for older jazz albums the personnel listings on Wikipedia have become quite well-st…In fact I think that Deus ex machina is Latin for "wrote ourselves into a hole"! Really is so good in the early seasons, though.We were disappointed by the BSG ending - in any case the Starbuck part of it. Seemed like they wrote themselves into a hole with that character that they just couldn't get out of.
OK, I think I am ready to pick my album of the year for 2011. Keep coming back to this one, enjoying and hearing new t…(Quote) This is what I do. I have a lot of playlists following individual players through their careers. I particularly like my Ron Carter playlist - ~300 songs from 1960 to now!

Now where did I get 5 awesome-sounding songs from this album, none of which I have listened to before? Pays to check your "Unplaye…Mommio, that's an interesting theory on cognitive issues. If so, I hope they will be open about that...we're dealing with it in my family (wife's mom) at the moment.
Raised Catholic, so I feel entitled to voice my hope the next Pope wil…Yeah, it's a bit of a papal cop-out. He was supposed to suck it up and die with his boots on, as his predecessor (and, ya know, Jesus) did.From Ted Gioia's Twitter feed: (Quote) Eric seems to favor band names with swear words.
Funk/soul/acid jazz, pick one...

No diss meant to Benson, for sure...I could say the same for Mangione, around that same era. My slam was aimed squarely at "I Write the Songs" and, even more awfully, …Wow, didn't realize they didn't show any jazz, at all. Seems like they could spare a minute for names like Pat Metheny and Chick Corea, but I guess that's my world.

Kind of amused to see Bonnie Raitt's win in the "Americana" category. Guess if you stay around long enough, the genre comes to you...!
