I think you're right. This does appear to be the best post ever. I'm pretty sure that there has never been a better post...

Chris Brummel - you could click on the link before you snark. But whatever.

I have nothing to add, other than I know who Newcleus is. I also know who Dynamix II is.

And I lost my virginity to Debbie Deb.

I've been wanting to write a 50's style news article based on the events in the song; Superman losing to the Jam-On Production Crew. Maybe throwing in a bit of 'Oh the humanity' kinda of rhetoric with regard to the earthquakes and assorted devastation it caused.

I was never planning on mentioning that it was from a song just to see how many people would remember it and/ or had actually listened to the lyrics.

Never got around to it, but the idea still amuses me.

Was that snark? I read it as being totally serious, and agreed.

Aaaaaaagh! It's going to take me a week to get "Jam On It" out of my head, again, and I love it. Or hate it. No, love it.

But as penance, you should purchase a copy of "Destination: Boogie" and set up a torrent ASAP. You know, for the children.

Thanks for the heads up Vervain - very cool. I like lots of music but my two real loves are early eighties electro (see my last post) and the Replacements. Can't get enough of either.

nice. I have this in front of me in 12". I have the single and the LP.

Go Me.

The treasures unearthed here cannot be underestimated. It's like if you found a tomb that held the 10 Commandments, Noah's Ark, and the mummified remains of a previously unrecorded ancestor, and the mummy was shaped just like this.

Um, yeah. This is wiki-wiki-wiki, as some have noted.

Still, great find, and yes, great post.

Go crazy. Go crazy. Don't let your body be lazy.

That way over the top introduction is why I linked to moistworks instead of the main site mrgrimm. Too funny, but understandable to hardcore electro fans.

Thanks for the wiki link. I quit reading BB last year because I got tired of hearing about drm and copyright lawsuits. But I just checked it out and may have to bookmark it again.

"Or for you Dylan fans, if you found a box of never-before-heard bootlegs and at the bottom of the box was a DVD and you put it on and it's a Dylan sex tape, and on the tape he's having sex with you."
