If for some reason you’re unfamiliar with The Walkabouts, it may be time to catch up. I find Carla Torgerson’s voice hypnotic. They were originally a Sub Pop band out of Seattle, but their real fan base has been in Europe for a long time. (And it turns out that the two founders went to my alma mater). Cool video, too.

Every man must decide whether he will walk in the light of creative altruism or in the darkness of destructive selfishness. ~Martin Luther King, Jr.
Happy 78th birthday Brigitte!
That certainly must have made your day, House!
Mitt might not be Stayin’ Alive but Rita Hayworth sure is!
Who knew the jive would sync with the BeeGee’s?
That is brilliant.
Get ready to snap your fingers…one two three four! (Do it in French if you parlez voux!)
Petula Clark – I Couldn’t Live Without Your Love
I loved her when I was a kid. I thought she was so beautiful and her songs were amazing. This is the one I remember most:
Johnny Mathis – Once In A While
Love her voice. Vicki Carr-He’s a Rebel.
After all the years of listening to the version by The Crystals, her voice sounds too rich and professional for that song.
This song has been running through my brain for days. Enjoy!
Great song! I love ELO. Reminds me of The Tubes: Talk to Ya Later.
I didn’t know that was The Tubes! Love it!
Xanadu was a rather dorky movie but it had some interesting music. I like this one though I am more partial to the Swing part. The synthesis at the end was fun. Dancin
The year I graduated high school had such amazing fashions.
Said no one EVER.
Fashion of the era no wonder I’m bad at finding clothes!
Same era, and fashion, Bonny M: Rasputin
I’m fashion challenged, too. I blame the times.
Funny thing, fashion. Seems to me your bags are quite fashionable!
Awww, thanks dycker.
Joel Plasket – Fashionable People
Oh Canada…
Oh lordy, I couldn’t get through that video.
Since I Fell For You – Al Jarreau and David Sanborn
hmm, do you have a theme goin’ on here, House?
Not really. I’ve just been listening to mostly smooth, pretty stuff lately.
There’s a Barbra Streisand cover of that song that’s real good too. Be aware that about 2:45 is eargasm territory, if you’re a Barbra fan.
Driving by the HP Pavilion the Marquee states she’ll be there on 03 November.
So much for her being retired
I like this one:
The Smithereens – Only A Memory
Oh dear, the neighbors are having a disagreement for all to hear. Have I mentioned how much I love apartment living?
Empathetic!
Emphasis on “pathetic.”
Last month – this was in the house next to the apartments:
he was shouting and throwing things out the backdoor as she was shouting and throwing things out the front door …
until the cops showed up!
Then they were united together against the cops, right?
The volume was turned way down when the cops arrived so we were no longer privy to the *conversation*.
Small blessings.
I don’t know why some people think everyone needs to be in on their stupid shit.
Walter Trout – Red House
This lady turned 65 on Wednesday.
Lynn Anderson – How Can I Unlove You
John Mayall
- California
- (with Eric Clapton) Hideaway
- Parchman Farm
Danny Michel: “Feather Fur and Fin”
I had to minimize that to listen to it. The video was giving me vertigo!
Yeah that’s potentially a problem – honestly, I had to continue surfing rather than watch it.
I watched it. I guess I’m weird.
I’m sober. Maybe that’s the problem.
Touche, mon ami.
I think that might be it!
Neato.
Liked the music!
You should here more from him. He’s got something, whatever it is.
Danny Michel: “If God’s on Your Side”
Father John Misty: “I’m Writing a Novel”
Dan Mangan: “The Indie Queens Are Waiting”
Hey Rosetta: “Red Heart”
In Canada our radio stations, by law, have to have a certain percentage of Canadian content. It’s an awesome law that enables people like Danny Michel, Dan Mangan, Hey Rosetta (Father John got mixed in there), Luc Ducet and Melissa McClelland (below) and a whole host of great Canadian talent to get noticed.
Whitehorse: “Broken”
Whitehorse: “Emerald Isle”
Luc Ducet: “Sundown” (Classic Gordon Lightfoot song)
Truly appreciate your posting new, to me anyway, music/talent/performers!
Good for Canada giving the opportunity to expose this talent.
If we didn’t do that years ago, it probably would be impossible today. It’s just amazing how many talented people there are out there.
Echo and the Bunnymen
Bedbugs and Ballyhoo
Seven Seas
Elliot Brood: “Northern Air”
House, I think you and luwslips must have been separated at birth. Truly amazing you posted the same artist and song at the exact same time — 9/28/12 8:51pm over at C&L!
He did the same thing with General Jack on Van Morrison just before that.
I would have beat him if I’d only done the first song, plus I use html code and he just pastes the URL directly in.
I can’t carpet bomb ‘em in there the way he does though. I go for surgical strikes.
Kim Barlow – “Garage Sale”
Jenn Grant – “You’ll Go Far”
Buck 65′s “Paper Airplane”, featuring Jenn Grant
Royal Wood – “Do You Recall”
That’s it. Canada out. Good Night America!
Good night, Dycker!
Pleasant dreams if dreams there be. Goodnight, dycker!
We’re waxing to a full Moon (30 Sept.)
Norah Jones – Moon Song
Moon is in Your Eyes (live in Paris)
Shoot the Moon
Moonlight On The Colorado
The Sons of the Pioneers – 1967
For the Turtle
Goodnight, all.
Sleep well, Z!
Another BLS

KZOO signing off. Remember be cool, but if you can’t be cool, be as cool as you can.
