I wouldn't want to ask people to just give me money cause they like my website, but do please take a quick look at Barger's Boutique. You might find yourself a little something-something for 2 or 3 bucks that you just can't resist! Any of the round images you find around MoreThings will get you to an Amazon page to buy my stuff and help ol' Al keep the lights on.
Links
To explicitly state the obvious, these external links go to interesting and provocative websites, but they speak for themselves. I don't necessarily agree with anything they say - especially that no-goodnik Richard Marcus.

Terence Trent D'Arby on the Talking Heads I'm generally a mid-level Talking Heads fan. However, I've never really been bowled over by Remain in Light, generally recognized by critics as their main masterpiece.
I'm going to have to give them another listen, though. Terence Trent D'Arby [aka "Sananda"] said this about them in a recent email to his fan list:
The Talking Heads' 'REMAIN IN LIGHT' is a landmark in western intellectual achievement,
it moves like raw primal spirit matter attached to a crackly ghostwire fading through impressions of distilled appalachian suffering and african flowering.
It is brilliant and was done before the record industry effectively learned to filter out and oppose such originality and offspring of spirit.
Sure, any idiot could start tossing big words at an album, but this is TTD. Hearing words like this from the guy who made "Sign Your Name" and the awe-inspiring Vibrator album gets my attention.
