The folks over at slatch.com are hosting the Jewelboxing Celebrity Playlist Prediction Contest, where entrants supply a fictional iTunes playlist for a celebrity that does not already have one. I think mine is a stroke of genius.
Celebrity Playlist: Yngwie Malmsteen
01. Jimi Hendrix - Little Miss Strange
02. Jimi Hendrix - Purple Haze
03. Jimi Hendrix - Foxey Lady
04. Jimi Hendrix - All Along the Watchtower
05. Jimi Hendrix - May This Be Love
06. Jimi Hendrix - Have You Ever Been To Electric Ladyland
07. Jimi Hendrix - The Wind Cries Mary
08. Jimi Hendrix - Little Wing
09. Deep Purple - Highway Star
10. Jimi Hendrix - Star Spangled Banner
Hear songs from the new Mastodon album here.
Check out the Gawker interview with the ever-wondeful Ted Leo:
So yeah -- it hurts a bit, but I'm not going to tell people to not do it, it would just be nice if we could put all our cards on the table and forego some of the unproductive rhetoric that surrounds the issue. The RIAA can go fuck itself for all I care -- my interaction with that world is almost nil, and I really don't care if so-and-so has to put that last piece of bling they bought into hock. I'm just saying that there are people out there trying to do it righteously who could use a bit more support, and a good way to show it would be to give them something in return for what they give you. A musician can't download a guitar, you know?
yngwie! fuck yeah! "rising force" has easily one of the best album covers ever. and your playlist? genius.
sweep arpeggio the leg,
