666

The title of this track is the lemniscate or 'infinity symbol' of a horizontal figure 8 - It is taken from the 1971 double-LP entitled 666 by the Greek prog rock group Aphrodite's Child - The breathtaking vocal performance is by Irene Pappas (better known as an actess, e.g. Costa Gavras Z)...

Perhaps I should've waited 'til Valentine's Day to post this, but an evil streak compels me to share it with you without delay...

"This is the original tape Troy made to his girlfriend Melissa on their 6 month anniversary. She left him 3 days after."

Johnny Appleseed

Joe Strummer and the Mescaleroes. This song has been on heavy rotation for me for a few months now. I love the line “If you’re after gettin’ the honey, then you don’t go killin’ all the bees.”

Which Way You Goin' Billy?

This was the one big hit by the Poppy Family (1970)...

A great essay on this marginal, slightly twisted bubblegum group entitled "The Partridge Family + The Manson Family = The Poppy Family" by Kim Cooper may be read here...

(I'm searching for some MP3s of some of their 'weirder' songs, like "There's No Blood In Bone" - When I find some I will post 'em here)...
