Antony and the Johnsons… The Cripple and the Starfish…

Wow.  It’s a super duper party pooper gay… like this gay… song about a good old fashioned S&M relationship. It’s sung by the masochist/pain pig. The singing and delivery make it for me. It’s a live version from last week in Portland, OR.  Antony and the Johnsons were accompanied by an orchestra, and … well, Antony sings with so much emotion it’s…. almost too much, but… he hooks me. It is, without a doubt, the Coolest Shit Ever

You can hear what I hear by downloading this song here. It’s a live version, and I’m giving it away. If you like it, go see Antony and the Johnsons. They’re haunting.

Cut to Pink Floyd in Boston in 1977. Rick Wright’s unfortunate passing has resulted in a huge number of Pink Floyd shows to be released on various live music torrent sites. This excellent quality audience tape from Boston 1977 is indeed excellent. The quality is great, even with the occasional, “Sit the fuck down!” from people around the taper. It is Boston, after all. You can download this excellent show, where they do all of Animals, Wish You Were Here, and some tracks from Dark Side, by clicking the link at the beginning of this paragraph. Enjoy the music.

Thanks for reading, Youdopians.
