Excited full album shows are back!

Although this episode was about Live, it got a Violent Femmes lyric stuck in my head:

We got the mother and her kids
We got the guy and his date
We all get mad
WE ALL GET ATE!

Thanks, Jake :)

Re: Hidden Jukebox Episode 2: 69 Love Songs

Great episode! Reminds me of the old "Playing God" articles in Stylus Magazine

I know 12 is roughly the minimal magic number of songs for a standard album (fewer isn't quite enough; more starts to feel bloated), but here 15 would have been more appropriate for two reasons:

1. It's hard to reduce 69 songs to just 12, so 15 allows a few extra.
2. More importantly, it sets up calling this exercise "6+9 Love Songs" :)

Here's my 6+9 list, for what it's worth:

A Chicken with it's Head Cut Off
Come Back from San Francisco
It's a Crime
Fido, Your Leash is Too Long
All My Little Words
Kiss Me Like You Mean It
The Luckiest Guy on the Lower East Side
I'm Sorry I Love You
The Sun Goes Down and the World Goes Dancing
Time Enough for Rocking When We're Old
Crazy for You (But Not That Crazy)
Nothing Matters When We're Dancing
Sweet Lovin' Man
The One You Really Love
Papa Was A Rodeo

Thought you’d like (and somewhat surprised you didn’t already know and reference!) the best song about a DQ Butterfinger Blizzard:

Thanks for the review. I'm glad the book resonated with you on both the music and time travel sides. Passionate responses like this from readers make it all worthwhile. Keep on keepin' on!

Scott,

I'm the author of Timely Persuasion. I'm honored by your interest in the book, and just as disappointed and surprised as you in your Lulu experience. I've heard of this happening one time before, but never heard anything about the number of hoops that needed to be jumped through to remedy the situation.

I'm putting in a complaint to Lulu on your behalf. In the meantime, shoot me an email with your mailing address and I'll take care of you with a free autographed copy at my own expense.

Best,
