Jen, T.V.'s pretty scary, in general. What in the world is Pop up video?

RE #281 I believe that "Pop-Up Video" is a music video show that flashes
factoids about the video and/or its artist, and the factoids pop like bubbles.
More information on the show would be appreciated (since I read this in the
newspaper, and I'm not about to pay through the schnazzola for cable TV in
Ann Arbor).

My upstairs neighbors have cable and I've watched PUV a few times. It's
a hoot. Plus they play some older 'classic MTV' type videos that you
wouldn't see anymore.

Okay, I think I've seen this before (PUV). They were showing a video of Cher,
and she had the most horrendous outfit on. I quickly moved on.

Yep, Chris is completely right-- it has been nice to see some of the older
MTV videos that were really dramatic (Hall and Oates's 'Method of Love' was
nice to see again after so, so long, as was even Falco's 'Amadeus')

the Beach Boys, "Pet Sounds".. Yes, I know it's kind of over-hyped
but it really is a pretty good album. Some of it sounds a little dated
in the 90's but many of the songs (especially "God Only Knows") remain
quite heartbreaking..

Steely Dan -- "Aja". I don't think I'll ever figure out how this one
(IMHO their weakest and least interesting album) ever became their
biggest seller (and a pretty huge seller indeed) but even weak as it is
relative to the others it's still a pretty decent album.

Mike, I'll agree with your opinion that _Aja_ is weaker relative to the other
Dan albums, up to _Gaucho_. I think _Aja_ is a much better album. Not to say
that I dislike _Gaucho_. On a scale of 1 to 10, I'd rate everything from
_Can't Buy A Thrill_ up until _Aja_ a 10; _Aja_ a 9; _Goucho_ an 8.
I'm not too familiar with anything Becker and Fagan have recorded since the
New York Rock And Soul Review tour. By the way, that concert was one of the
top three concert experiences of my life. Imagine being in a huge crowd of
Steely Dan fans, and hearing Becker and Fagan (with a very impressive band)
performing Dan tunes live for the first time since their first album came out
(1972-3). Everyone was insane. They did about 6 or 7 tunes, and the audience
was *clearly* there for Becker and Fagan, not the other performers and groups.
When they broke out with _My Old School_, the *entire* audience was jumping
up and down in unison, *everyone* SCREAMING the words, many people in tears
of joy.....it was *amazing*.

Hmmm.. I quite like 'Gaucho', actually -- my only problem with it is
that it's really short.. It took a while for it to grow on me but once
I got to like it I really liked it..

Jimi Hendrix -- "Axis: Bold as Love"
was driving home last night and they were playing a live version of
"Voodoo Chile" on WDET. that song's not one of my favorites but it
reminded me that I hadn't listened to my Hendrix albums in a while.
His stuff has sure aged a lot more gracefully than most of the music
from that period..
