Hot Music Takes!









I'm kind of sick of all the Prince TALK, but I'll never get tired of listening to that run of records through Purple Rain.
I barely listen to the Current anymore partly due to Prince overload. It's a bit much but I never was a huge fan.

Jon Bream and The Current need to get a room with the ghost of Prince. Way over the top.
 





LEMONHEADS Alert - Coming to town, Nov 15, 2021 at the Fine Line. Promoted by 1st Ave.
 







Is it ok to be sick of The Lemonheads?

Other than chatter on this board are you really currently (or at any time in the past 20 years) encountering The Lemonheads/Dando at such a level that warrants being sick of them?

Yes, it's actually TOO LATE to be sick of them. That ship has sailed. The window has closed. The use-by date has passed.

Yeah, it like saying I am SO SICK of Teenage Fanclub.

If you haven't seen the movie, Young Adult, you will get a very heavy dose of Teenage Fanclub. Most used song I've ever seen in a movie.
 

Diablo Cody/Charlize Theron movies have a way of doing that. In Tully it was Pavement.

Both films I would put in the "good" but "not great" category.
 

People talk about The Lemonheads on tOTB as if they're The Beatles. Or Prince.

I'll have to give Tully another try. I don't remember any of it, but I know I saw it.
 



I won't argue it's better, but I enjoy the Gear Daddies version of Little Red Corvette far more than the guy who wrote it.
 

Aaaand back in the office today after 5 weeks working from home. One of the supervisors is now sporting this tatoo behind her ear. She and her daughter got matching ones.
Oof...I bet her favorite song is When Doves Cry.

Though I'm being hypocritical. I'm a little embarrassed to say I have a Doomtree tattoo.

Do you like the Hindu Love Gods' version of Raspberry Beret better than Prince's?

Yes, though it's a tough call as I think it's my favorite Prince song.

I can certainly pivot and bring up Jason Isbell more often and start it off by saying he's best americana triple threat right now as a singer/songwriter/musician.
