Steve Albini:

"Music has entered the environment as an atmospheric element, like the wind, and in that capacity should not be subject to control and compensation. Well, not unless the rights holders are willing to let me turn the tables on it. If you think my listening is worth something, OK then, so do I. Play a Phil Collins song while I’m grocery shopping? Pay me $20. Def Leppard? Make it $100. Miley Cyrus? They don’t print money big enough."

As I no longer live in NJ, I am now legally permitted to say that Frank Sinatra is a wanker and his voice sounds like smooth, processed horse baloney. With those gross little olive slices in it.

Sinatra is great. Without him what would we have crooner-wise? Bing Crosby? Mel Torme? Those just sound like mothballs. Frank Sinatra is class.

I see Jake agrees w me about Crosby. Sinatra is to Crosby as music is to sound effects.

I like Sammy Davis Jr. But without Frank Sinatra nobody would know or care about Sammy Davis Jr. on account of the racism. You like Sammy Davis Jr.? You need to respect Sinatra.

I always though Crosby was uninteresting until I heard his really early recordings, where the crooning was a real innovation. He coasted on that for decades. That and Orange Juice commercials.

I want all of these in any media form. WFMU at an apex. All possibilities of radio seemed opened up to me. Back then, it ALL seemed mysterious and new, especially Mr. Frank's hour which I never missed. I shoulda recorded them. You had Muriel's Treasure hour at the end of your show.
