View Uncle Michael's profile |
Turning over the toy box and jamming together the gloriously mismatched musical Lincoln Logs, Legos and Tinker Toys from Tin Pan Alley pluggers, pickled egg tavern weepers, lockstep soul ensembles, skinny-tie power poppers, Eurotrash ravers, moontanned art school rockers, drunken soccer anthems and anything else that seems like a good idea at the time. There are no guilty pleasures.

i wasn't thinking about it at all but when the Everly brothers came on i thought of that other song

Jeff Moore:
I mean, you'd expect a grave accent on something like Chère, an acute one on Chérie, and then there's this album's apparent acute Chér, which... well, she IS unique.

Prior to that comp coming out and the amount of artists covering Cohen's music (Nick Cave being the first I noticed), I mainly knew him as a joke in The Young Ones.
