Oh, I accidentally left Spoon out of my list of 2007 goodies, and it may go as high as #2.

Just f'in rhyhmezone.com it, dude. How 'bout "friends"? I thought of "man," but my mind instantly raced back to 1994, with Janeane Garofalo's character saying in REALITY BITES, "Don't bogart that can, man," to which Ethan Hawke's character reples, "Are you retarded?" to which she responds, "No, I'm rhyming. It isn't easy," or something to that effect. God, the early '90s. Seems so charming and innocent now, pre mass-consumed cell phone, pre-Windows 95 internet, pre-911 naive isolationism. And, everywhere you looked, Thurston Moore in some magazine pic with a (land line) phone in his hand looking uninvolved and cool, a la Scott, circa '87 in the artwork to LN (think his new album's material is good btw). Makes me want to play GOO or DEAR 23 or VAMPIRE ON TITUS or something from the era ,.

Nobody sits on the "meh" fence when it comes to Los Waynos... Still, at least nine other records for you to pick up, Andy "This royal throne of kings, this sceptred isle, This earth of majesty, this seat of Mars, This other Eden, demi-paradise, This fortress built by Nature for herself Against infection and the hand of war, This happy breed of men, this little world, This precious stone set in the silver sea, Which serves it in the office of a wall Or as a moat defensive to a house, Against the envy of less happier lands, This blessed plot, this earth, this realm, this England." - --Shakespeare, from KING RICHARD II ------------------------------ End of loud-fans-digest V7 #260 *******************************
