It’s been a long, stressful day.  There are sorrows.  There are worries.  But not with lounge music.  Take a listne to the mellow “doop-dooos” of Dave Pell’s classic cocktail song. “Like Young” by Dave Pell

grave 300x200  Gay News Roundup Monday

Today’s Gay News Roundup will not be as varied.  The reason is because I literally have no room is my heart today for stories other than the one of Harold Scull and Clay Greene.  My heart is so heavy that I can’t think of anything else.  I can’t comprehend anything else.  I can’t comprehend this [...]

drewandsass2 300x300  Drew & Sass Lost Podcast # 9!

Drew returns!  And quite triumphantly I might add, as this is our long, most bestest podcast yet!  Thoughtful and soft-spoken duet Ike Jablon & Adam Gottlieb join us and show us that a podcast need not be endless venom (although that is a lot of fun, isn’t it?  Don’t worry, the venom’s still there!) to [...]

This easy-going, hypnotic strummer about who-knows-what (I guess, a cherished ukelele?) is a rarity:  is it fast?  Is it slow?  Is it sweet?  Is it bitter?  It’s one of those inkblot test songs that will play you differently with the day. “Darlin’ Ukelele” by Jolie Holland

Don’t hate me because I found this band off the “Gossip Girl” soundtrack.  Hate me because now that’s where you’re gonna have to tell people you got it from. “Teen Lovers“ by The Virgins

*A creepy neighborhood perv solicited a rub and a hug from his twinky music student this weekend— what? Oh, sorry, that’s one of the Jonas Brothers performing at Angels Stadium for Saddeblack Ranch’s Easter Sunday Service.  The older gentleman (who looks like he lost out to Stanley Tucci for the role of the child murderer [...]

It’s raining today, but for the past week, Summer has been starting to show a little skin.  This always gets me in the mood for surf rock.  It’s a cliche, but it’s soooo relaxing to listen to.  Surf rock gained a big renaissance when “Pulp Fiction” broke out, and one of the 60′s band to [...]

Welcome back, everybody! Today we review and bitch about what we feel was a laughable episode, “The Package.” We have special guest star, friend and Wet Cookies Comedy cohort Cat Lamb!

Take a listen to this super-sized podcast, that is, if you haven’t gotten a bonk and the head and can only understand Korean.

Badly Drawn Boy, how lovably quirky, how sweetly sentimental, how much I love his album “Hour of the Bewilderbeast.”  But it’s his score for “About a Boy” that I feature today.  ”I Love N.Y.E.” has been featured not just in this film, but in commercials and TV shows, as well.  It’s purely instrumental, bells and [...]

“THE COMMUNIST” What’s In It? 1 oz Gin, 1 oz OJ, 1/2 oz Cherry Brandy (Cherry Heering is good), and 3/4 oz Lemon Juice.  Pour contents into shaker filled with ice, drain into a cocktail glass and garnish with a cherry. Where’d You Get It, Adam? The Communist, to my mild disappointment, is only slightly [...]

I cannot recommend the bizarre musicians Beirut enough.  The young Americans combine Indie Pop with World Music like Eastern Folk to create raucousness that seems well beyond their years. I demand you download “My Family’s Role in the World Revolution” immediately, and CELEBRATE! There’s something in your life now worth celebrating, and this song will [...]
