This record was released in 1989 (so too early for AI accusations), and I have known it for many years. But today is the first time I realized this guy has six fingers on his right hand.
If you're in the Towson area, there's a new El Salvadorian restaurant called El Rincón Salvadoreño at 905 York Road next to the Towson Vaporium - pupusas are excellent (my mother is El Salvadorian so I know from good pupusas!)
More evidence of the importance of the Oxford comma. I thought Glen Hansard and Moby sounded like crazy collab.

This exclusive edition of John Prine’s Lost Dogs & Mixed Blessings was worth the wait! Thanks, @ohboyrecords.bsky.social!

Won tickets from my favorite radio station (WERS 88.9) to see David Byrne this Saturday!
Rediscovering the intense graphics and thrilling gameplay of my first handheld digital gaming device.
Both of these album covers feature photographs by Henry Diltz, whose artwork will soon be featured in a new exhibition at Emerson College.
Here are some of the records in my collection that include versions of the song “Stagger Lee” (or “Stack-A-Lee,” “Stackerlee,” etc.).
