OK kid. If you're so polish, then tell me what's it with all the sheep? (Man I love that dark slavic tone...)

What CB means, or may have meant, isn't important. He's dead, and has worms kissing him good night. Try to imagine why a little 6 year old kid would say something like this. A poem is supposed to make you think (and feel) for yourself. It doesn't have any clear cut answers. (Neither does your...

Apparently not. I've heard worse, I guess. Have a listen: click to "listen"

Welcome churchmouse! But watch out - there are some nasty cats in here...;) In exactly what song does Sage Francis mention Bukowski?

Grant Green " Albums Ballads...

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh much better. thanks. now I almost feel polish, or even irish. now were did I put that plate of lutefisk... :cool:

How come a newbie gets attention like this? How come us "supporting members" never get attention like this? I live in Europe too you know! I could use some indoor plumbing as well! Not to mention 2 or three days of sunshine. Don't need the fridge though - cold as hell here already. And American...

New Year here I am! To all Buk.netters! Happy Good Night!

I never could resist the ingenious silliness of Paul. What a contrast to Happy Xmas (War is Over). My apologies...;) 8a. Paul Mccartney & Wings - Wonderful Christmas Time ...and put to good use here: 8b. Barenaked Ladies: Wonderful Christmas Time2

Nice interview mjp. In the spirit of Buk you strew out thoughts here that seem off the cuff, but which have have been acutely well thought thru. That makes things easy for the interviewer. I thoroughly agree with the quote above and Buk.net is one of the best examples of the "free spirit...

As of late I've been logged on a lot to: WWW.SPOTIFY.COM. Apply for an invite and you'll get one in a week or 3. (PPL in England apparently don't need to wait.) This site is chock full of complete albums with the ability to play tracks at will. Scrobbling to Last.fm is also available. Only...

:eek:

Have to agree with you on this one MJ. But many thanks C! (It just doesn't feel right to write "mjp" somehow. Why is that? The letters seem to have a textual feel/ring to them. They don't work verbally for me. MJ sounds better. Oh well Mikey... ;))

Interesting bit of info C. Just shows one more time Buk's willingness to have an unflinching look at reality...

The best way to get through christmas? 7. Dr. Hook - I Got Stoned and I Missed it

John Lennon's 4-disk "Anthology" is a treasure trove. Now available for streaming in its completeness on grooveshark.com. Try it out HERE!

Norwegian prog-rock from 1973? Yup:

While we're on the subject of Ladies Auxiliaries, here's another one: 4. Mojo Nixon & Skid Roper: She's Vibrator Dependent 220 on the money honey!

Congrats Father Bill!

Agreed. Cheery without Laura's ironic tinge. First thing I've ever heard of Laura Cantrell. Gonna check her out. First time I've heard Sam Stone as well, actually.

Yes, but somehow I like Laura's version better, something about the contrast. Try the Johnny Cash version I just added...

This one just won't let go of my brain cells... it's something about the combination of a tragic, gritty story told in a childish pure voice. Magic. 7. Laura Cantrell - Sam Stone + John Prine's original +Or what about Johnny Cash's take on it?

This technique has been used in Europe for quite some years now. They attach a skimmer to the ATM and a small camera to film the pin-code being typed in. They can also just look over your shoulder. You should always cover the hand typing the code. MJP: I really don't see how they can get the...

In that case I sure you could fit Neil Young in there somewhere... maybe after Bo Diddley?

vodka: No, you're not being a dolt, especially not for starting this thread! You are right in pointing out that love, as a theme, gets less attention than Bukowski's other, more "macho", subjects. No argument there. Good point. I may have jumped the gun a bit because lately the word...
