I will respond to anyone who suggests some music. But if you quote MC5 in your note to me I will respond a little quicker than usual. That’s what B-Sides singer Michel “Mick” Moreau did and that alone qualifies the band for a post to this site. Fans of garage-punk-rock-and-roll should check out their music at the B-Sides MySpace page.

The latest Plastilina Mosh record came out just in time for my birthday a few weeks ago. After the first full listen of All U Need is Mosh I was stunned that is wasn’t the greatest record ever made, because I’m huge, huge fan. I guess it’s bound to happen, but it’s always a downer when a band seems to take a step backward. I know, it’s all in my head. After several more complete listens I do love more than at first. There are a large number of great tunes and the whole world should buy it. My favorites in general are the more electronic stuff, but the punk-pop single “Let U Know” is totally fun. Other standouts include the slow electro-funk “Paso Fino” and the pretty “Pervert Pop Song.”

This ain’t for everyone, but some will love it. The three Ds remind me of some of the ’60s garage punkers on the Back from the Grave compilations. All I know for sure is that “Dean Dion and Dan have a master plan.”

David Byrne is one of the most prolific, creative people around. He’s been doing interesting work continuously since the ’70s (though much of it has been a bit under the popular radar). He recently rigged up a whole building as a musical instrument for his Playing the Building project. A whole building that you can play from a keyboard — how cool is that?

Everything That Happens Will Happen Today is his latest effort — a collaboration with fellow prolific creative guy Brian Eno. This effort is mellow and airy, without the bouncy world beats with which Byrne has been known to spice his music. This work reminds me more of True Stories without the shopping mall and John Goodman and all the cowboy hats.

The player will stream the whole album, and it’s available in a wide variety of DRM-free digital formats for your listening and sharing pleasure.

I am always ready to hear some good new music. That’s why there’s a “Suggest Some Music” link at the top of this page. Thanks to Mason for the tip on FSR. Other than that the band members are also cyclists (Thumbs up!) all I know about them is what I see and hear on their site. I see that they have a lot of “friends” and I’m hearing some tasty grooves. My favorite is probably “Broad Street Thriller.” Check out FSR at MySpace.
