Flashback: Shel Silverstein on The Johnny Cash Show

You know him best from “A Light In The Attic” or “Where the Sidewalk Ends.” I do, too. This was my favorite:
Someone ate the baby it’s rather sad to say

Hot Hot Heat Readies New Album, Releases Two New Jams

You’ll have to forgive the slightly outdated nature of this post — things have been insane at my job and it’s just been hell updating.

Onto some real talk though: Long story short, Hot Hot Heat is an interesting band.  It appears that, over the years, they’ve …

Cover songs mixtape – Halloween 2009

The search for a new mixtape service (among other things) continues. 8tracks.com works, but it’s not the greatest. Enter mixtape.me, which ALMOST does the job, but I sorta hate the way it looks. Anyway, this playlist isn’t full of Halloween songs – just covers. …

He has a few records out …

Mixwit has been dead for some time now, and today I spent like 3 hours trying to make it work on my server – unfortunately, it was to no avail. Enter 8tracks.com. Mixes can only be 8 songs long, they play in random order, and don’t look like tapes at all, but …
