I'll go with Sonny Rollins's solo at the end of The Stones' "Waiting On A Friend".

Stan Getz's sax solo in "The Girl From Ipanema". Love when that comes in.

That one is on the short list of "Songs that keep an album from being perfect"

That's a typo.

I thought it was BBBBQ?

Wow. I haven't thought of the Drop Nineteens in years. I didn't think they really got much play outside of Boston.

The Lee Perry stuff is great. I like the version of "Small Axe" that they recorded with him even more than Burnin' version.

I was told by a very nice young man with a moptop that the word was, in fact, "love".

Whichever Grease contained the most Deezen per square inch of film is the superior one.

My slow, tedious co-worker finally retired last month. The job still sucks but, Jesus, what a relief it is to not deal with him anymore.

Jack Nance deserves better than to be compared to Joe Scarborough.

Anytime i listen to decent live recordings of them, i wish i could actually hear the bass on the records and that the drums didn't sound like they were recorded in a closet miles from the studio.

I liked the episode a lot but was pleasantly surprised by hearing a Teenage Jesus and the Jerks song on a tv soundtrack.

I'm fairly excited by the prospect of some Husker Du live material getting released soon. I was reading an article the other day that said they might actually be getting some back catalogue love for a change.

I can make out "I heart" something or other. Stand up straight, Stinson!

Some of this was filmed in my city. I guess I'll check it out just for the "Hey, I know that place!" factor.

Regrettable epilogue: The Goo Goo Dolls shave all the rough edges off the music and make a lotta money.

See if Merle has any ludes on him.

Who knew the ladder of success took you through Hoboken?
