  1. A depressingly necessary statement:

    The person behind this account remembers that #AltLeft was a term Donald Trump used as a false equivalence to give comfort to his neo-Nazi supporters after the murders they committed in Charlottesville.

    US neo-Nazis willingly call themselves #AltRight because they got tired of people correctly calling them neo-Nazis. Their enablers have tried to make "alt-left" a thing because they like to fuck with our heads.

    Forgetting that means the terrorists win.

  2. #JukeboxFridayNight #ThisPartInParticular

    From 1957, #BuddyHolly (guitar, vocal) and #JerryAllison (drums) lay down the demo-iest of demos (Buddy's vocals aren't even miked) of #BoDiddley's "Mona". It's deceptively simple until that first guitar solo (1:12), when Buddy turns Bo's original lick into Pete Townshend from ten years in the future.

    They never did a proper recording of this one. Damn shame.

  3. Getting acquainted with Andrew Hickey's "A History of Rock Music in 500 Songs" podcast has opened me up to all kinds of surprises, such as the revelation that Shocking Blue's "Venus" was fundamentally built out of a rocked-up reworking of "Oh! Suzanna" that featured #CassElliott on vocals.

  6. For your contemplation: #CWMcCall and the Old Home Filler-Up an' Keep On a-Truckin' Café saga, a #1970s bakery company ad campaign so popular that it made the TV listings.

    Bill Fries (CW himself) collaborated on the music with future #ManheimSteamroller mastermind Chip Davis. Hope you don't get tired of that jingle, because it just keeps going for a half-hour. Don't say I didn't give you a fighting chance...

  8. Thursday #Music for 8 December 2022.

    You know, some of these are better as a surprise, so I'll just say this is the B-side of a split single #NoveltyRecord and leave it at that.

    Tomorrow: the A-side. Unless my demands are met.
