Dizzies Music Supplement

I.
Dizzies Team Member Hua—whose cell-block tag is 'The Professor'—has two rare versions of a Fab Four ditty about eternal fruit patches up at his blog...

II.
Toward a partial list of groups who've written songs with the same title as their name (as a songwriter, do you feel pressure to make this your best song, your defining statement?):
Bad Company, "Bad Company"
They Might Be Giants, "They Might Be Giants"
Hallelujah the Hills, "Hallelujah the Hills" (This band is great!)
UPDATE: Friend Edward Crouse's band Logjam's "Logjam"

III.
Slight variation: Doktor X, "The Sickening Sound of Doktor X"
The Beatles, "The Ballad of John and Yoko"

IV.
Any other ones you can think of?
UPDATE: "Fergielicious"!

V.
The intricate lyrics of Sarah Johns—check out "The One in the Middle," at first you think, this is corny, but then the lyric keeps going...I also get a kick out of "He Hates Me," this sentiment should appear more frequently in songs, no? (This is inside baseball, but for some reason these songs remind me of old tracks recorded by the man currently known as Team Knucklehead, a/k/a composer of "The Theme to 'The New-York Ghost.' ")

Sound advice

From Pinky: "[D]uring the early days of sound, the studios had such trouble with recording that some banned jewelry from their sets (too jangly) and oiled down all the actors’ hair (to prevent static-y crackles)."

Brian Evenson at Moistworks has some mighty Conan musings.

At Office Naps, Smokey Robinson's "I Care About Detroit."

We've got a fuzzbox and we're going to use it

Over at Office Naps, some short and sweet garage rock—a Hawaiian band covering The Who! A Los Angeles East Side Hispanic band covering Them!

This was one of a number of American ‘60s bands named the Jagged Edge. Nothing seems to be known about this particular permutation, though it can be reasonably inferred that their “Midnight to Six” was recorded in 1966, that zenith year of the garage band experience.
