Last minute q?

Anyway, plot = "write song, send it to disinterested musician, he records it and presses some 45's and mails em back to you."

Rodd Keith: Genius? Some of his where he gets reasonably impressed with the source and/or sees something to build on.

I got "I died today" the title track being one of the best ones, would prob have been a hit in England (we kinda like story tale songs).

No time to enlarge, shall post a link to a great site with loads of m3s on.

i need to get one of those song-poem compilation cds. i have a 4th generation cassette of a bunch of the really classic ones like 'jimmy carter says yes' and 'a convertible and a headband.' the ultimate one is probably john trubee's 'blind man's penis.'

These are some of the 'not quite good enough for the compilation CDs' mp3s. But that's their opinion, a random picking shows some great stuff.

And for you Lucia Pamela fans, one of her songs is here.

i could swear they used to have an mp3 of 'blind man's penis' here but it looks like they took it down. hmmm

I just happened to find this on the news page in a bit about a 'cloying' elvis tribute.
Alas, it is a bit too late now, as, barring the appearance of some last-minute financial angel, the entire MP3 substructure of the site will come down on January 5 of the new year. Fodder and his colleagues are to be congratulated and thanked for giving us a year's worth of tough-love musical thrills, and their exploits in the months and years ahead deserve to be watched closely.

Sorry for raising everyone's expectations.

For those who care: The mp3s from the Song Poem Music page are available on the WFMU blog.

four years pass...

That embarrassing situation we all find ourselves in from time to time, of a chance encounter with your mother triggering suppressed memories of your having methodically beaten your brothers and father to death.
