a couple years ago, I wrote all the Stevie blurbs for a Noted Streaming Service but I can only find a handful of them. Anyway, I'm remembering that my research indicated that there are *maybe* a bunch more extra songs from SitKoL hidden away docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Even an 86-minute double-abum wasn’t enough: for the vinyl release, he added a bonus 7” record with four more songs, and rumors spread that there may have been as many as 200 demos left in the studio vault.

Isn't She Lovely is an all-timer

the only thing I had in common with Iggy in 1986 was that I could've worn that exact outfit to picture day in 4th grade

Since it is late and I have been thinking about Paramount–Warner Bros., and I have a lingering take, I'll dump it here. After the trauma of the integration, the thousands of layoffs, the likely federally subsidized bump in Hollywood production, what will happen with this company?

The band I was obsessed with at the time was the brother and sister duo Fiery Furnaces. There were some things on Blueberry Boat that took me out. [Plays “Quay Cur” on the speaker] I’m sorry I have to do this, I haven’t heard this song in so long. There’s a lot of psychedelic experimentation, lots of synth. The way she articulates, how she—I can’t explain it. It’s just so white. This is a time when white people were doing white shit, remember that? [Stops music.] They tore.

I idiotically agreed to contribute a book chapter to a forthcoming collection the same semester I'm teaching a new prep AND a one-course overload. If you need me I'll be eating egg noodles and ketchup in witness protection

Otherwise it kind of reminds me of the talk show staple asking people on the street to answer a very simple question about popular culture and/or history and then laugh at those who thought Ben Franklin was the second president, or who didn't know who the current Second Lady was etc

can I ask the "who out there was actually bragging about being ignorant of the biggest song in the U.S." question? The RS article cites Doja Cat (hm) and the predictable "social media," but not much else. I don't look at Twitter, and wonder if it was a big thing over there like "who is Bonny Bear"

sometimes it happens to me between "up" and "at em"
