Musicological banter

Damn that’s a deep list!

Fairuz of all people..got a cd of hers..maybe I should listen to it

So who is getting their mitts on this new 16 CD boxset of rare DC r&b, doowop, soul, etc, so I can borrow it for six months… the thing looks really well done, but yikes on the price…

Yes, but belongs in the Poster thread.

so the lads from Wigan The Lathums just landed in the number one spot on the UK charts with their debut record!!!

but the shenanigans they get up for charting a record over there..  like releasing a deluxe digital version two days after the formal release

oh well they deserve it, growing a huge base via social media during a pandemic is a feat

and yeah the "return of guitar music" 

Kendrick Lamar, Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg to Share Super Bowl Halftime.  The N.F.L. announced the three Southern California natives will share billing with Mary J. Blige and Eminem at Super Bowl LVI in Los Angeles.

wow - stacked lineup. too bad they'll all have to share 20-30 minutes.

I know, will they all get to sing a snippet of their hits and on to the next

so as not to clutter up the Hey Seth thread this is as close to a Talking Heads reunion as we are likely to see..

for a second I thought that was robert plant and was like…WTF happened to Alison Krauss in the last year

and never say never… If someone waves a 1 million check for each band mate…I think they might reconsider

i took the plunge on this one and ordered it from a local online store and it should arrive tomorrow…  took a listen to the some of the songs the WaPo highlighted in their story about the collection and am intrigued to hear the other 400 tracks included.  the book with it looks amazing and i honestly think I will donate this to a local library system at some point
