Clever me.

forgot Fats Waller with your super-duper way old school!

anyone who's kidnapped by Al Capone to play at his b-day party has my vote!

NO WAY! That would be terrifying, and awesome all at the same time.

I have some Fats Waller, actually. And again, this is why we shall never divorce.

:X

[whatever]

ooohh... we could have an Elvis impersonator sing Fats Waller's "ain't misbehavin' " at the reception!

never, ever divorce my dear good music taste laden wifey!

I'm obsessed with Interpol, and you should check them out--listen to either Turn On The Bright Lights or Our Love To Admire first if we're talking albums. Interpol is somewhat difficult to get into, especially if you start with Turn On The Bright Lights, but give them time and you'll turn around.You can check out some of Interpol's Our Love stuff on MySpace. The Heinrich Maneuver, Mammoth, No I In Threesome, and Pioneer To The Falls are all good samplings, with the last two being the better ones.

My tastes vary over various kinds of indie/alternative stuff: The Secret Machines, Jimmy Eat World, At The Drive-In, Sparta, Mew, The Dillinger Escape Plan, August Burns Red, From Autumn To Ashes, Chevelle, Vaux, As Tall As Lions, Wilco, Sigur Ros, Fugazi, Belle & Sebastian, Arcade Fire, Keane, and Explosions In The Sky.

Pretty good list there, as well.
