SURPRISE!!! I'm gone for two weeks. No posts no music. Oh MY!. If you are desperate for a music fix check out Doctor Mooney's blog. He's always good for a few interesting tunes and info. Until then, see you in APRIL when the flowers might start to bloom.

Weekly MP3 share Another share of one of my MP3s. I set up a new one once a week and give you seven days to check it out. After that it will be gone and replaced by a new selection. Please don't link to this. Just click on the link and save it. Until I can make some money and buy some, if you get the message BANDWIDTH exceeded, just try again tomorrow. For this week:

Mp3 Share Sam Roberts
"Where Have All The Good People Gone"

or you can try here too!

This album by Montreal native Sam Roberts called "We Were Born In A Flame" contains the song I am sharing this week called "Where Have All the Good People Gone?". I've liked the style and voice of Sam for a long time and this selection from the 2003 album just shows why. I hope you have enjoyed him for as long as I have and if not maybe this will introduce you. Sam is also a 2007 Juno Awards nominee with his "Chemical City" album. You can check him out at his own website.

Gollum and Smeagol get their groove on

Gollum A hilarious new video that appeared on the Web recently is a creative, creepy, and delightful duet version of a Barry White classic. It's performed by none other than those loveable Lord of the Rings creatures, Gollum and Smeagol.

The characters do a great job of lip-syncing the song, at least as edited by a director who goes by the handle of amds. This definitely puts a new twist on the old soul classic. Watch the video

Mp3 Share The Broken West
"Baby on My Arm"

This album by The Broken West was released in January of this year. They have been together since 2004 but only recently started to use a new name. I ran across the album and their myspace site and decided to share this song with you.

Check out all the Douglas Adams quotes at Quotatio.com. Have some fun with quotes like one of my favorites:
"A common mistake people make when trying to design something completely foolproof is to underestimate the ingenuity of complete fools" Douglas Adams
