Got my new Macbook Air!

Today I got my new Macbook Air. It's sweet, as those who have felt one before. Now i'm off to get some essential accessories for it. Invisible Touch makes this really great film protector for it. Then i've been spying the Isis Dei covers. I can't decide which one...but I probably will get the pictured Karma. These things are awesome, and i'll be carrying around my computer a lot more. These things are water repellant (important for me and my fumble fingers). It'll fit right into my bag, not requiring my large computer case.

Anyone wanting to buy a Powerbook G4??

I'm going to be on the radio!

Yeah...it's not like i've never been on the radio before. (Go to my Brocasts page to listen to some of them). This time, however, i'm being interviewed by Lorraine Chambers for her awesome music geek show, Record Store Memories (click to hear past shows).

She spoke of upcoming guests, and if you listen in the player below at about 12:50, you'll hear her talk about me.

RUHtf Gem: VINTAGE Rolling Stones - Around and Around

When I say "Vintage" Rolling Stones, we're talking Brian Jones-Stones. This is mostly a "lost" Stones album, containing only one Jagger/Richards original..the rest covers. It was put out mostly to cash in on the fad sound of the day when and if the Stones popularity waned. We know the answer to that question.

No Puff Daddy remix, no guest rap, no disco beat...just pure, unadulterated Stones.

My copy was a pristine looking copy that I ebayed. There's sadly that annoying buzzing on this album, too.






Side One:
Around and Around
Good Times, Bad Times

RUHtf Gem: Tater Totz - Alien Sleestacks From Brazil

Back in the 80's, this album came out from nowhere featuring some familiar underground names: Pat Fear, Pat Ruthensmear, Jeff & Steve McDonald, with numerous guests, including Danny Bonaduce. The album was all covers, with side 2 devoted to covering Yoko Ono, Don't Worry Kyoko. Sadly, I only have this on cassette, and my cassette ran out of room recording it. My friend has it on vinyl, so i've been trying to get him to bring it to me.
Prince was even thanked on the album because Michael Quercio (who sang on "Tomorrow Never Knows") was in the Three O'Clock who were a Paisley Park band, and thus was contractually obligated to thank Prince.

This will have to do for now.

Give Peace a Chance / We Will Rock You
Let's Get together
Tomorrow Never Knows
I've Just Seen a Face
Bat Macumba

That's Danny Bonaduce singing on "I've Just Seen a Face".



Here's an interview I did with them on KUCI:

I say it's my birthday!

Alright...yes, it's my birthday. And what a present I got!!

So...here's the conventional rock and roll birthday song....performed unconventially.

I got this from Mojo magazine, and the CD they gave out was "The White Album Recovered"...new artists doing their versions of the album.

This is "Birthday", made unrecognizable by The Ruby Suns Featuring Esau Mwamwaya:


If you want to ever send the song to someone else for their birthday, its here:
