  1. I watch very little TV, but I remember what I see. I think a lot of TV just goes right by most folks.
  2. Just got back from seeing The Tubes with Fee Waybill and Bill Spooner.
  3. I like the "hip-hop" Verne Troyer one!
  4. How can I subscribe to Weird Satellite radio?
  5. For Bukowski fans, there's The Bukowski Tapes which is kind of a documentary: 4 hours long with 52 clips of him pretty much ranting. I second the Theremin suggestion. A strange love story...
  6. Post #41?
  7. Reminds me a bit of the people who back the Chimp In Charge regardless of what truths are presented to them. Like I've said before: Influence...sampling...chord changes...are one thing - It's quite another to plagiarize another's work and call it your own.
  8. I agree with your comment about the Anthology of American Folk Music, but I think sampling is one thing - stealing (taking credit for music and/or lyrics) is another. With sampling, one's not claiming to have written the song sampled.

  13. Khumalo Jazz star Moses Khumalo found dead Riaan Wolmarans | Johannesburg, South Africa 05 September 2006 02:29 Moses Khumalo One of South Africa's foremost young jazz musicians, saxophonist Moses Khumalo (27), was found dead in his house in Honeydew, west of Johannesburg, on Monday evening, West Rand police said. Police spokesperson Captain Sphiwe Ndlovu told the Mail & Guardian Online on Tuesday that Khumalo's girlfriend, who last saw the musician on Friday, went to check on him as he was not answering his phone. On her arrival, she found his body hanging in the house. Police are investigating a case of suicide, Ndlovu said. Khumalo had not left a suicide note. Marketing and publicity manager Don Khaile, of Khumalo's record company, Sheer Sound, said Khumalo had been living by himself. "The untimely death of Moses Khumalo, or 'Moss' as he was affectionately known to all of us, came as a huge shock," Sheer Sound said in a statement on Tuesday. Born in Meadowlands, Soweto, on January 30 1979, Khumalo completed his matric at Pace Community College and then studied piano at Manu Technical College. In 1995 he took up the saxophone and went on to earn a diploma in music theory, music history and oral (songwriting and ensemble) as well as performance saxophone and piano. His first public performance was at the Grahamstown National Arts Festival in 1995 along with the Soweto Youth Jazz Band. As a member of late jazz pianist Moses Molelekwa's band, Khumalo rose through the ranks of the South African jazz scene, performing both locally and abroad. He shared the stage with stars such as Hugh Masekela, Sibongile Khumalo, Themba Mkhize and Paul Hanmer and played in bands alongside many other renowned South African musicians, including Khaya Mahlangu, Vusi Khumalo and Prince Lengoasa. Before his death, he had been performing as part of Moses Khumalo and Friends at clubs in and around Johannesburg. Brad Holmes, owner of Newtown music venue Bassline, where Khumalo had often performed, said on Tuesday: "I remember him coming on stage with Moses Molelekwa on the day that Basil Coetzee died. A British journalist from the London Times was at the gig, and he wrote an article saying a new Basil Coetzee had been born." Coetzee was another well-known South African saxophonist. He toured and recorded with Dollar Brand (Abdullah Ibrahim) and died on March 11 1998. Of Khumalo's music, Holmes said that, most importantly for a musician, Khumalo had his own tone. As a composer, musician and songwriter, Khumalo was regarded as one of South Africa's finest developing artists, Sheer Sound said. "His prominence in jazz circles came at an early age and he always had a spark of energy and drive. He defied the myth that this beautiful art form was only meant for the consumption of the very old-timers. His enthusiasm was contagious and his drive had allowed him to come through many tough times," the record company said. His debut recording, Mntungwa, was released in 2002. Allaboutjazz.com described it as "noteworthy jazz under the leadership of a mercurially talented fellow". Mntungwa won Khumalo a South African Music Award for best newcomer. His second and most recent release was Ibuyile (2005), "a fantastically spiced and flavourful Afro-jazz album with pop elements", Sheer Sound said.
  14. [if you click on the link and look at this guys' picture, you will not believe he is 100 years old! Incredible.] http://news.yahoo.com/s/afp/20060901/od_af...gelabouroffbeat 100-year-old Briton keeps on working 'to avoid boredom' Fri Sep 1, 8:36 AM ET Britain's oldest worker has enjoyed a day off to celebrate his 100th birthday but explained he would become a "miserable sod" if he ever had to retire for good. "Buster" Martin, a mechanic for a south London plumbing firm who has 17 children and 70 grandchildren and great grandchildren, tried giving up work at the age of 97 but couldn't face the boredom. "Boredom is a big killer of men," he told the Daily Telegraph. "I went back to work because I like to keep active," adding that if he ever retired he would become "the most miserable sod you have come across." The centenarian, who grew up in an orphanage and first married when he was 14, joined the Grenadier Guards and served in World War II before switching to the Navy. In more recent years he worked on London market stalls. He now lives in south London, where one of his few concessions to modern technology is a television. "I have never in my life owned a phone -- they are a bloody nuisance," he said. "You can be sitting peacefully indoors and they start ringing. I hate them." Neither is he too keen on foreign holidays. "You are only going to spend a lot of money to go over and do the same things you would do here," he told the daily. "I am living a holiday here. I wake up every morning and am happy in what I do."
  15. I've heard that sitting on some big ass Klipsch speakers that's playing bass heavy hip-hop might help! or maybe going to a doctor get well soon!
  16. Oh, this is a great header and thread! It has Fluxus written all over it! Today is not John Cage's birthday either (tomorrow is...) R~~
  17. Hey! I miss ya over at Last FM - have ya forsaken the fellow scrobblers and gone to Odeo? Have a fun- and music-filled day (and, yes, a laborless day too!) Rod
  18. I think he was mixing him up with those two guys from Quicksilver Messenger Service. I know I do!
  19. Sorry, just now saw your response to this... I think the point of the matter is that if you have a person working for you that's knowledgeable and enthusiastic about a certain form of music, then that store could become known for it's wide/r range of titles offered. Those titles weren't the only ones purchased by this particular buyer - they were extra titles that the buyer was enthusiatic about and was able to sell - albeit in small quantities. The comment from the "cowboy" was based on the idea that the titles weren't moving at the same pace as the "hot" titles - jazz or otherwise. I could certainly understand my friend's frustration, because the big record/CD stores are B&M shells that are there to fill with the latest thing that the majors want you to buy. Yes, in the older days of record stores, you had the "hits", but you also had knowledgeable and enthusiastic buyers and salespeople that were a fountain of knowledge willing to share new interests - kind of like the music forums on the web.
