doesn't betty everett sound like a black churchlady?
Yes. But her name isn't nearly as great a band name as the other. I for one would give one of Chris Martin's eyes for him to rename his band Big Maybelle.

That ol' heathen!
OK, you sold me: I'm listening now. Len Barry, "1-2-3" is a good way to start. But if I get bored I'll be CGing it later.

I'm CG-ing... "Heartache Avenue" by the Maisonettes. Never heard this before. And followed by Cass -- "It's Gettin Better"!!
BTW, poc, speaking of Black Church Ladies... what do you make of Tyler Perry? His movie of "Diary of a Mad Black Woman" opens tomorrow. He plays the grandmother character in drag. But it's like, not a comedy. WTF?
-
Followed by Tom Jones, kissin' your sweet little pussy .... cat lips.

that's because it isn't funny. at least not to me. this is the madea thing, right? which i have a hard time not pronouncing like "madea."
my dad has the videos of the plays. sometimes i watch them with him. but i don't think they're funny. of course, they're targeted towards a conservative, black, religious, middle-aged audience.
anyway, i don't know anything about the movie - i've only seen the billboards.

"luciiiiiiile - you don't do your daddy's will!"

Apparently Mr Perry plays 3 roles in the thing, including Madea. I was almost tempted (I loves me some Steve Harris, who plays the cheatin husband) but it really sounds awful from what I've read. I know that black-gospel-stage-play thing is a goldmine, they always advertise on Kiss and KBLX whenever one's at the Paramount.

on CG: "Lost in France" by Bonnie Tyler, a UK hit that pre-dates "It's A Heartache". Another new one on me.

Eamonn on CG just interviewed a rather drunk-sounding woman who said she was literally a David Cassidy groupie when she was 16. Do Tell!

Yeah, I heard that. Got the impression that she was making it up as she went along. And I hope she was: otherwise "Could It Be Forever" makes for kind of a tragic request ...

CG plays Edwin Collins, "A Girl Like You" o ne of my fave '90s singles. Apprently he's seriously ill following a brain hemmorage...

Yeah, I'm wishing him well, hoping he has as quick a recovery as Paul Kantner had from his 1980 hemmorage.
Anyone else think "A Girl Like You" was Bowie the first time they heard it?

Hmmm... no. I always thought it was more '60s hommage than '70s. But funnily enough, I stopped into Arinell pizza on Valencia tonight for my weekly slice of real NY style (yum) and they were watching the Ziggy Stardust movie on a small TV/VCR combo. And of course the Klaus Nomi docu features the clip of Bowie on SNL doing "Man Who Sold the World".

Arinell, eh? Never been. My favorite "NY style" pizza was Escape From New York Pizza on Haight. But by far my favorite pizza in NY came from Nizario's at Castro & 18th.

But Escape From NY is too thick to be truly "NY Style", no? Arinell is like being in the Bronx. And next week I'm trying (for the first time) Amici's the "East Coast Pizza" that Ralph Barbieri sings the praises of on KNBR.
