  • D'oh! The Difford and Tilbrook file won't play. :(
  • It'll download. Cursed ampersand!
  • Your computer is quite fond of the last two Tribe Called Quest albums, Jeff.
  • Are you complaining, Cass?
  • Come to think of it, yeah -- I am complaining!
  • hagen
    Jonatha Brooke... more, please. All I can eat. Take it as you will.
  • Agreed. Jess has been listening to "Back in the Circus" for months now, and this phenomenal track was enough to convince me to buy this album. (Which, by the way, is available on Amie Street for about $3.)

    love me still...used in my favorite spike lee joint..."clockers".
  • A song I never get tired of hearing, either from Bruce or Chaka.
  • I love Big Bad Bill. Van Halen's version should be banished to the depths, IMO. Of course, I have owned Cooder's Jazz album since it came out. Around that time he played a bunch of tunes from that album with a good-sized band on a PBS show, possibly/probably Soundstage. I wish they would replay that one.
  • Oh, man. I'd kill to see that.
