Queens 'n' Greens (Monkeys & PJs)

Many thanks to our Last.fm/We (Heart) Jangle Rock/other places friend Tom Cruz for turning us on to Seattle band, The Queen Annes.


We also very much like #1 & #13, as well as this one from their LP, The Mire.



BTW, The Queen Annes are on the same label (Green Monkey Records) as longtime faveband The Green Pajamas. Of the many loved numbers by The Green Pajamas, below's our favorite. We usually prefer our songs uptempo, but holy shiksa, this one burns slow and sensual-like.

Around the Blogosphere: Records, Tchaikovsky, Someloves, Holly, Green PJ's, Say Hi, Sparklehorse, J & M Chain, Raveonettes, Petty, Stars, et. al.

Attention, poppers. Attention, poppers. Tom over on Aisle Bag of Songs has hit a grand slam and then circled the bases on a victory lap. One click takes you to all five.

Milburn - Lipstick Licking - A Plague of Angels
Alpinestars - Snow Patrol, pt. 2 - A Plague of Angels – Takes 40 seconds to really get going, but when it does it does it.

Stars - Sleep Tonight - Battle of the Midwestern Housewives
Tom Petty - Feel A Whole Lot Better - Are You Embarrassed Easily? - Not as good as the original but what is?


Dearest hostesses and hosts,

Lay, Lady Lay. . .: High Water Marks, Trolleyvox, Green Pajamas, Quarter After, Masonic, West Indian Girl, 1900s, Tulsa

. . .lay across my big brass blog. . . Yes, yes, I know, that's the first album, but I like this picture better, mkay?

Mind if I. . .lay a little music on you? Thanks very.

High Water Marks - The Leaves mp3 - I just now downloaded the new album, Polar, sight-unheard over at eMusic. "Sight-unheard [gasp, spit]? Are you crazy???" Maybe, but not in this case. I fell for 2004's Songs About the Ocean like sixteen tons. Its "Good I Feel Bad" delivers incandescent pleasure every listen, and "Queen of Verlaine" does some effective fancy-tickling as well. Anyway, that's enough emotin'.

The Trolleyvox - Much have I loved these Brotherly Lovers, as seen here. This new effort but fans the flames.
Your Secret Safe

The Green Pajamas - Wild Pony mp3 - from Box Of Secrets... - I said it before and I just might again: These Norwesters know how to dress for success.
The Night Races Into Anna

Masonic - from Austin!
Tulsa - Mass mp3 - I Was Submerged - Thanks to Pirate Brook, who, along with Pirate Meredith, has put together a fab little mix tape you might want to check out.

Not that anyone would get jealous (it'd be pathetic if they did), but just because I didn't say more doesn't mean I don't like every single song posted here because I very much do.

The Green Pajamas

Seattle’s favorite apparel-monikered outfit proved in “The Secret of Bethany’s Mouth” and “She Smiles Sweetly” they know how to dress for the occasion. Happily, they’re still appropriately clad, as you’ll hear below. I blew a wad of my first eMusic downloads getting up to scratch with this fabulous psych troupe and can’t recommend them too highly. Released November 14, The Night Races Into Anna is a compilation of rare and unreleased tracks from 1997-2006. Parasol have a couple more freebies, if you're interested, and you can check out a GP's song I previously posted here.
