Stet.   I like irony, or at least a reasonable facsimile.

This one doesn't ring a bell, and I've got just about everything he's
released.    'Sitting' and 'I Can't Keep It In' are two of my personal faves.

[ooooh...'Careful With That Axe, Eugene' just came on.]

Of course, I was raised on a steady diet of Cat Stevens, The Carpenters,
Bread, Led Zeppelin, and Cream from my father, and a whole boatload of funky
70's Jesus music from my mother.  Add to that mix the fact that during my
formative years, I spent weeks at a time with my grandparents, where my
grandmother shared her love for Russian composers [Scheherezade - ahhh], and
my uncle played old Genesis and Zappa all the time. 

And people wonder where my tastes in music comes from.

Another movie I saw recently where the music seemed well integrated into the
movie was 'Jackie Brown'.   That was a cool movie.
