I wouldn't want to ask people to just give me money cause they like my website, but do please take a quick look at Barger's Boutique. You might find yourself a little something-something for 2 or 3 bucks that you just can't resist! Any of the round images you find around MoreThings will get you to an Amazon page to buy my stuff and help ol' Al keep the lights on.
Links
To explicitly state the obvious, these external links go to interesting and provocative websites, but they speak for themselves. I don't necessarily agree with anything they say - especially that no-goodnik Richard Marcus.

New album releases, week of 1-25-2004 The pace picks up a little in new music releases this week. Top cool pick for the week: Now That Sounds Kosher!. It surveys the history of Jewish comedy music, going back to good ol' Allan Sherman and Tom Lehrer, and forward through Weird Al. I'm curious about "Man Of Constant Tsuris" by The Soggy Matzoh Boys. That sounds VERY wrong. It also, naturally, includes "They Ain't Makin' Jews Like Jesus Anymore" by Kinky Friedman. If you don't own this classic song, that alone would constitute a good reason to buy this.
Also, I see a new Ladysmith Black Mambazo album (No Boundaries) which might be worth a listen.
Marianne Faithfull generally rates a spin. Her new album Before the Poison features collaborations with PJ Harvey and Nick Cave among others.
Lee Ann Rimes has a new album out, This Woman, which is said to be an actual country album (whatever that means today) rather than the dance pop whatever that she has indulged in the last couple of years.
Kenny Chesney has never made any impression on me, but he's considered big stuff among the country audience. If that's you, you may want to get up on his new Be as You Are (Songs From an Old Blue Chair). I, however, disapprove on grounds that the album cover is not quite gay enough.
