Three versions of 'Maybe Someday'
A super doomy one from Human Beast
A zippy garage one from Evergreen Blueshoes Feat. Skip Battin, who I think was in The Byrds at one point
And the original, by the Incredible String Band, when Clive Palmer was still in 'em.

Monday Morning Jazz Brunch
Ella Fitzgerald--Ella Fitzgerald Sings the Cole Porter Songbook, Vol. One
On top of the hour of awesomeness that is this album, I learned that Malcolm X stole the "Plymouth rock landed on us" line from Cole's "Anything Goes."

this song earwomrming....
I only ever had this album as burned CD-R I received from Ariel the Sexy Roller Derby Chick, back when we were exchanging burned CD-Rs. (It was 2007-10ish and she didn't have a cassette player, hence no mixtapes.)
She often voiced annoyance that I kept giving her "old music" and I imagine that's why she let it drop. She, otoh, was always giving me new releases for which I was appreciative since I had recently left Boston and the used record store for my exciting new career of picking stuff up and putting it down elsewhere, and, consequently, no longer got to listen to music for free all day, everyday.
I, of course, was a meticulous artist-album title-song name indicator, soemtimes even with badly-xeroxed black-and-white booklets, but she would just slap a post-it on each one with only the band name, the album title and, oddly, the year released scrawled on it, so I never knew any of the names of the songs on Vampire Weekend. Now that I'm listening to "Oxford Comma," I am realizing that I have never listened to the words to any of their songs.
Thanks for the opportunity to wax nostalgic!

More waxing nostalgic:
Just got to "Woman" and had my entire childhood flash before my eyes.
In retrospect, kind of surprised my mother listened to these guys. She was pretty adamantly anti-country when my father got into it in the nineties (to be fair, most of the country he listens to is crap), and she even said she gave up on The Byrds went they put out Sweetheart of the Rodeo.

One of the potential names considered for my current band was "Deep Blue Ovals."

You decided against 'Opaque Nosed Harlot', then?

Daily Musical Interludes
The Monks--"I can't Get Over You"
Billy Walker--"Funny How Time Slips Away"
Joe Hinton--"Funny (How Time Slips Away)"
(I did a little research project on this Willie Nelson-penned song today, spurred by the version on Al Green's Call Me. From what I can tell it was a hit two time for country artists before soul artists picked it up and, again, from what I can tell, Willie didn't record his own version, at least in the studio, until the nineties.)
Fugazi--"Cassavettes"
Le Tigre--"What's Yr Take On Cassavettes?"
