Senator: Decency Rules Should Apply to Pay TV, Radio
Hey Senator, since it's PAY TV and Radio, and it's been taken off the FREE channels that the kids have access to, maybe your tactic of paying off your brats to stay out of the cigar parlor should be re-examined so they can't use that money to see the indecency. God forbid you protect your own kids before "protecting" everyone else's. Yeah I'm generalizing, but this shit pisses me off.

So this past Saturday at 3am I'm pulling up in my driveway, home from a hang with some friends. CBC RadioTwo is playing this jzzzJAM! that bound me inside the car. I went inside after, booted up the computer to see the playlist (CBC does an awesome job of showing you what's being played) and learned it was this Bootsy Collins/Bernie Worrel tune from the soundtrack to a documentary about the Moog keyboard. The song is called 'When Bernie Speaks' and Glory B, the fonk was indeed on Bootsee. I highly recommend acquiring this song, you can get it for a buck from iTunes Music Store, just look up the Moog soundtrack.

Fyi, Bernie Worrel was the black guy playing guitar and dancing along in the Talking Head's 'Stop Making Sense' concert film. He's played with all the greats who could jam. And of course you know who Bootsy is.
