First off, I had my dad build me a dowl and oak system floor to ceiling. Then, I had to buy boxes, and bags unlimited ( a company I have mixed feelings about) now sells a product that will fit both the jewel case art, and the front booklet, and the cd in a two sided plastic resealable sleave. without having to bend anything. I have a paranoid worry about the plastisizers in the softby James K
The Stump "quirk out" ep has 6 songs and only one is on the lp. Worth looking for. Yeah Yeah Noh had I think only one real album, and I think it is great. Lots of eps and collections apparently.by James K
I've always thought that botilyzm, with a nice spikey metallic logo would have been nice. And I'd like to use, The Laceraters, myself, but I don't know how to spell it, and I'm sure somebody somewhere has used it. the other one I want to use myself is Hardway Juice. but I'm sure somebody got to it already. also, i have a wife now, and I can't livby James K
I've been listening to Libertines/Libertines. Leatherface/mush Died Pretty/free dirt Magnetic Fields/ 69 disc one Rough trade label / that covers cd from a couple of years ago.by James K
John Entwhistle (sp) out of love. I think I mentioned in the past, the guy from Polyphonic Spree, but that has to be free or maybe 6 bucks max. Speaking of Polyphonic Spree, the Flaming Lips, I wouldn't hit, but they owe me some money for the headphones tour. I'd let Eddy Guerrero hit me for a thousand bucks if I had the chance. damn, now I'm sad. James K,by James K

I wouldn't even bring this up, but is was watching/listening to "music choice" on warner digital cable earlier, and over the hills and far away by led zepplin did the fade out thing, and I was reminded of good classic rock radio. Or rock radio before it was classic. then they played T. Petty's don't come around here and asserted on the tv screen that somebody named sby James K
Leatherface are one of the best punk bands of the last 15 or so years, no joke. I'd buy just on their participation. FWIW. James Kby James K
why was this urgent or important? (i can't remember) Because I'm a dork? no, because for the next big party I'm going to burn the best assortment in numerical order I can come up with, and slip it on the stereo around midnight or so, and wait til someone goes WTF. They are used to weird mixes from me, but not themes, so it's just a game I guess. Plus I've worked onby James K
this is very important, so any and all corrections and additions would be appreciated.

I gotta say Loose and TV eye are as good as anything, but Raw Power works as an album for me better. I like the remix okay, but that original mix, I fit in with All the Young dudes, and Ziggy, and it's a context that works for me. The darkest aspect of that context, and there is a riot going on connection that i'm too lazy to get out of my chair and check dates on.by James K
I just noticed this post from when I must have been wasted. I think I put it in the wrong thread, so I'm making it go away. In 1987, far as I remember, it was the end of punk and the beginning of grunge. And gangster rap. I was fucked up that year.

Wouldn't David Lee Roth's spandex covered ass really apply to the other definition of punk? Did Rob Halford cut his hair and put on leather before or after punk hit England? Johnny Cougar had a bald bespectacled keyboard player prancing around in his very early video's.by James K

I wasn't thinking of the UK mags when I brought this up. Yeah, if you take them into acount you might have bought anything. Of course If I'd had access to such nonesense at a younger age I would have learned to trust my own judgement sooner. I pulled out a Mega City Four cd just now I've had a few years. I guess I didn't listen to it after I pulled it out of the cleaby James K
I take it back. I just put on 16 slabs of funk cd , and half the tracks are hot. esp. It's just begun and Troglodyte. I should have kept the vinyl. The First Time Ever I Saw Your Face however has been done with more force and soul by others.by James K

The major label grocery store behind my condo decided it would be okay to do major jackhammer construction about 10 feet from my bedroom at all hours of the night and morning. They got to listen to The Flipper (rick rubin reissue ) cd all the way up on repeat through an open window. Plus the sounds and feel of breaking glass. Ha Ha Ha Ha, Sacrifice. james Kby James K

Hi, I posted this last night. I was pointing out how some famous independent music mags who were alway going on about integrity and how they had been ripped off by the man asked for reader support. So I gave it to them. I wrote them checks and ordered merchandise. And got nothing in return. So how are they different than the distributors and labels that screwed them over. They cashed myby James K
