Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds
March 6
Seems like I post a lot from this band. Well, they’re a great band, that’s all. Geez, get off my back about it!
OK, this is from their newest release, a double album with the names Abattoir Blues and The Lyre of Orpheus. This is the title track from the second CD, The Lyre of Orpheus

Well, today’s the last of my MP3 spree, and tomorrow is our anniversary (Elaine and I), so here’s “our song.” … That is, if we really had one. Anyway, this one makes me think of her. I love you, Elaine. Happy early anniversary.

I’m not a huge fan of most Hollywood horror movies, but some of the music in them is just amazing. Today’s track has been in so many hallowe’en/horror movies, I just had to include it (OK, OK. It’s been in at least one or two…cut me some slack!). Nick Cave and the Bad Seed’s Red Right Hand

To keep you guessing, here’s a non-punk, non-oldie track for your holiday goodness. This is from the amazing Tom Waits. Black Rider
Update
Sorry, guys. I tell ya, I’m not usually this absent-minded. It was late and I had to put up 13 of these suckers. Anyway, thanks goes to Ray for telling me it was flubbed up. Should work now.
Tom Waits
September 19
Double Feature
Yes, it’s another double feature. Tom Waits has been around forever it seems. He’s been releasing music and albums since the mid-70s. His early stuff is nice and friendly (like the first song listed below) and his more recent stuff is very whiskey bar-ish. I love his voice and the fact that he can play every instrument known to man! So, before next Sunday, get Please Call Me, Baby and Bad Liver and a Broken Heart
