For The Dying, A Vinyl Offer of Immortality

And on the other end of the music spectrum… yesterday we dealt with music for babies.  Today we turn to music for the dead.  Literally.  A British company called And Vinyly will turn your remains into vinyl when you die. Or if you’re not dead yet you can have a body part pressed into vinyl.  [...]

Your Mama Don't Dance and Your Daddy Don't Rock and Roll

There’s a new CD out for parents who are afraid to sing to their babies.  Yes, afraid.  I had no idea there was a market for such a thing, let alone hordes of parents who fear their baby’s stinging disapproval. From the website, Sing to Your Baby: In thousands of family concerts over more than [...]

My Favorite Band of All Time

I don’t think I’ve ever seen so much talent on one stage, that’s right I’m talking about Korean boy band K.R.Y.  First off you have to commend the genius of covering Paper Lace’s The Night Chicago Died.  And then to do a live Western theme.   First Sancho Panza pops up out of the floor, [...]

Things I Miss About The 20th Century, Album Covers

Things I miss about the 20th Century… album covers.  I’m talking the nice big twelve inch or so square pieces of art that were the graphic embodiment of the music contained inside.  Granted most album covers were utilitarian and just helped to identify the enclosed record from the hundreds of other records on the shelf.   [...]

All Ladies Love LL Cool J... except Sarah Palin

First let me say say that I am convinced that all ladies love LL Cool J.  My mom loves LL Cool J. Really, what’s not to love?  Sarah “maverick, pretend(and real) gun-shooting, chronic winker and evader of questions” Palin has a new special that’s suppose to air on, surprise, Fox News Channel called “Real American [...]

Stop I've Had Enough-- Michael Jackson Didn't Invent MTV

Ok, nobody has gone that far yet.  But can we please drop this ridiculous fiction that Michael Jackson was the first Black artist on MTV. Somehow in all of these tributes and hastily produced retrospectives, The King of Pop is being hailed as the Jackie Robinson of the music video era.  WRONG. Its bad enough [...]

How is it that SNL’s Andy Samberg comes up with catchier tunes than most of the people up for Grammy Awards this year?  Not that I’m going to be whistling this one in my car or blaring it with the windows down– but it approaches the genius of last year’s Dick in A Box.  The [...]

Wouldn’t life be great if it were an Elvis movie? Elvis made 31 films, now not all of them were cinematic gems but you are pretty much guaranteed some or all of the following: (1) An attractive female co-star (blond, brunette, redhead, take your pick) (2) A reason to breakout into song either because you [...]
