Just missed a copy posted to SwapaCD.

I would have sold, traded or given away Rickie Lee Jones’ Pop Pop instead. Her voice is grating, while Sheila is always lots of fun.

Jack Daniel’s Single Barrel 132.1 proof, neat.

It is kind of confusing, there has been a good bit of discussion of them on Discogs. I was briefly serviced by the labels until they ceased operations some time after Albert Marx's death. Bill Mays called Albert Marx the lost Marx Brother, "Cheapo..."

Zappa had little patience with interviewers who didn't do their homework or asked stupid questions. He got a kick out of my recognizing his quote of "Hallelujah, I'm a Bum" in his song "Rhymin' Man" ("Nobody knows that song!") and that I told him it was a parody of the hymn "Revive Us Again." But our station soundboard did not have sufficient volume for a phone interview in 1989, so I caught hell about that issue, even though I had no control over it, being a mere volunteer program producer at the time. Frankly, I had more problems dealing with Herb Ellis and Ruby Braff being a bit too full of themselves compared to Zappa, I erased the Ellis interview without bothering to hear it.

Thanks for the tip, I just preordered it.

Newport, TN

Over a two day period I received about 15 calls with the same area code and prefix as our cellphone provider, all but the last one was junk and went immediately to voicemail. But it turns out the last call was someone I knew, as I found a voicemail, so I had to go back and unblock him.

I saw Zappa 3 or 4 times in concert between 1974 and 1984, I would have attended the 1988 Atlanta concert if the band hadn't self-destructed in Europe. I can't think of any rock musician who got so much out of his instrumentalists and the ability to switch gears mid-concert into different arrangements on the fly was unusual.

I have now made insurance mandatory on all Discogs sales. I am tired of the USPS screwing around with my media mail packages. I had one that bounced around with little to no tracking for over two months, only to be returned, torn open and empty, in a plastic sleeve. I shipped a box of CDs to Stateside Distributors in South Carolina on March 26, foolishly wihout spending another $2.30 on insurance, now those morons have not tracked it since March 30th, still listing it as "in transit, arriving late." I think this is more than incompetence, it sounds like they have some thieves in the various sorting centers. A substitute carrier who ran a route in our neighborhood while our regular carrier was on sick leave was busted for DUI one night and discovered to have a lot of stolen mail in her vehicle. Where are they finding these people?
