Close to a century, actually. The oldest recording here--Ada Jones's "By the Light of the Silvery Moon," which rhymes "spoon," "June" and "honeymoon"--is from 1909. The most recent--Liz Phair's caustic blast of sexual politics, "Polyester Bride"--dates to 1998. They bookend a Rhino collection that features 114 tracks on five CDs, with an 80-page booklet tracing the social and musical challenges, breakthroughs and triumphs of women in a field that remains male-dominated both on the business and creative sides.

David Cronenberg. He's done more movies that are more bizarre than either Crash or eXistenZ. Check some of his earlier stuff, but watch then sober/straight.

I thought they lost all credibility when Frank Zappa's _Jazz From Hell_ got a sticker for explicite lyrics (it was an instrumental release - no lyrics.) And even if it did, so what? Do these things affect sales in anyway for an artist with as low a profile as LP's as compared to a rapper? As for the connection between the two Blood On The Trakcs - seems to me that the LP song follows the same theme of the Dylan album. Relationship problems. But that could be trrue for just about any of her songs, right? And for the CD-R/CD-RW controversy, I may have no choice in the matter. Went to 17 different places this weekend, and while there are thousands of CD-RWs available, I couldn't find one plain vanilla flavored CD burner.

Someone more pornographically inclined may have a better answer for this but I believe it's one of those black leather S&M things that has either a cock ring on the end or something to strap a (prosthetic penis) on to. It's pretty kinky whatever it is......although I still don't know what Arab's had to do with it? And since I didn't get a rise out of anyone who agreed or disagreed I will say this again. Blood Keeper is a near unlistenable Liz song. When she hits the high "need" in "Don't you neeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeed, to see my blood on the tracks today" I squirm in disgust and am embarassed to admit who the artist is if anyone else hears it (hence I don't play the song...EVER).

Timony first made noise leading the Boston band Helium; on her foray alone, her detached, baby-doll voice broods like a caged bird that can't live without its prison. Over Pixies-ish guitar jags and haunting strings, she draws the listener into sonically weaving, dimly lit backstreets. - -Stacey ------------------------------ Date: Mon, 20 Dec 1999 21:08:23 -0700 From: David Lavetts Subject: Re: Arab Strap!

I don't find this to be true for me at all. I get much squirmier during her live singing solo on "Uncle Alvarez," and even then not enough to turn it off or worse not play it all. Oh yeah, some of the notes on "Oh My God" too, but I find them strangely endearing now. I think it's cause I can miss the notes too. I dare > anyone who has a cat to play this song loud.
