Buckle up, buttercup.

This is turning into "Name Every Band You've Ever Seen," but then again it is the Off Topic Lounge.

Vince Guaraldi - Cast Your Fate To The Wind, from the 1962 album Jazz Impression of Black Orpheus. An original composition by Guaraldi, it was the B-side to what was supposed to be the album's big single. DJs liked it and played it on air, and it went on to earn the 1963 Grammy as Best...

I'm currently renovating four rooms: living room, kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom. Every morning I wake up wondering what's going to hurt. Mostly it's alternating legs and lower back. I'll stop when it's time for the pros to take over and finish, but there's so much to do before that. Luckily I...

I was so surprised to see this pop up on YouTube this morning! Being old, I especially appreciate the Plympton-esque animation.

Jim Croce - Operator, from the 1972 album You Don't Mess Around With Jim, as performed live on The Midnight Special. "... you can keep the dime."

Art of Noise - Close (To The Edit), from the 1984 album Who's Afraid of the Art of Noise? An early example of sampling, which in turn has been sampled itself countless times since.

You looked bored.

I apologize if I'm so old that I didn't understand the confusion regarding this "song." I thought it was because it's obvious that a vocal track with no musical backing can be incorporated into almost any metrical orientation, but I'll go back to my nap now. You kids have fun now.

I made it about five minutes trying to figure out the mystery behind being able to count an acapella vocal in several different ways. I hope the rest of the video was staggeringly meaningful.

I've only read the first one, "Killing Floor," which coincidentally was the plot for the entire first season of the TV show, so I knew all along what was going to happen. Still a good show, though, as was the second season. Anthony Michael Hall is apparently the head bad guy for season three, so...

When you don't need to worry There'll be days like this When no one's in a hurry There'll be days like this When all the parts of the puzzle Start to look like they fit Then I must remember There'll be days like this...

KISS, with unknown opening band Cheap Trick. August 1977. So that makes the first drummer I saw in concert a young Mr. Bun E. Carlos.

That's only because I wasn't there. I was raised by a sailor and it shows. My friend, I am so happy that you are home safe and sound, and that your trip was (mostly!) good. Looking forward to the pictures.

Okay, his birthday was yesterday, but today is DylanFest 2024! Every year for the last 34 years, Andy and Renee and their band Hard Rain have celebrated Bob Dylan's birthday with an all-day music festival. It started all those years ago as a get-together of friends in a back yard, and it has...

Loudly, with headphones. Because Gnome.
