Well 'cuda, I just gotta thank you for making me aware of that old Leon Russell crud on youtube - he's playing in SF on wednesday the 16th and will I be there? Yes I will.

Other than that, this is what I heard a several minutes ago:
Frank Black - whatever happened to pong
He ain't no Leon Russell, but he'll do.

And this was scarcely odd, because
They'd eaten every one.

Bromhidrosis anyone? (Ruth Underwood looking fetching on the xylophone.) Actually my dogs are fresh as daisies, but oh how they throb. My feet are my only carriage.

Sleepwalk Santo & Johnny

Honestly, that's the least alarming video I found that still had decent sound. Here. Look at the Davies brothers for a few minutes, and try to figure out what each has in mind for you. It's much cheerier.

I've never heard him sing anything stronger than he does this song, this time.

Einstürzende Neubauten - "Yu Güng (Fütter mein Ego)" -- Live in Düsseldorf, 1990

Found objects, feedback, and rampant megalomania in a snazzy suit.

Wear Your Love Like Heaven -- Donovan

You're Gonna Make Me Lonesome When You go -- Bob Dylan

Also, don't freak with this YouTuber's music. Because, as Dylan points out: When something's not right, it's wrong.

The Coffee Song -- Frank Sinatra

Plus:

Rum and Coca Cola -- The Andrews Sisters on American foreign policy.

It's a fact, man, it's a fact.

ON EDIT -- Fixed freaking Sinatra link. Thanks, Jeff!

Also, the rest of the subject line is invisibly: "give him for how cruel he is to Donovan."

There's something not right with the Sinatra link, c2w. It's a dupe of the Dylan track.

Louis Prima and Keely Smith - Zooma Zooma
And why does Smith look so distracted/pissed here? Was it a bit they were playing, or was she fighting with Prima? (Which wouldn't be too hard to believe.)

Anyway, great; now I've got a crush on her.
