The 10 CDs I ordered were in Wyoming, MI early in the afternoon and should be here tomorrow. The Heart CD has Barracuda as the first song. Not a bad playlist.

Here are some one hit wonders from the '80s. I can't remember who it was but someone told me he was in a bar and one of the members of Vixen was the bartender there. I just read that the drummer is from the Detroit area.

That guy runs a studio in Norway but sings in English pretty well. He plays everything himself as well as recording, mixing, mastering, shooting and editing the music & videos. I like his music but not enough to buy it.

As far as the number of instruments on a song or album I think Mike Oldfield has him beat. On Tubular Bells he plays grand piano, glockenspiel, Farfisa organ, bass guitar, electric guitar (including "speed guitar", "fuzz guitar", "mandolin-like guitar" and "guitars sounding like bagpipes"), taped motor drive amplifier organ chord, assorted percussion, acoustic guitar, flageolet, honky tonk piano, Lowrey organ, tubular bells, concert tympani, Hammond organ, Spanish guitar, plus he does some of the vocals. He did a series of overdubs of himself playing a bunch of instruments but it sounds like a whole band instead of one person.

I don't really care for the way he sings but it's still much better than a lot of other bands that just grunt and growl, and I still like his music. His cover of Highway Star wasn't the first metal version.

Fleetwood Mac's version of Black Magic Woman from 1968, 2 years before Santana covered it. It was a single a year before this album came out in 1969.

In 1980 when The Empire Strikes Back came out "Weird Al" Yankovic made a parody song called Yoda about it to the tune of Lola by the Kinks. He recorded a version of it that Dr. Demento played on the radio but it took 5 years to get permission from Ray Davies to release it on an album. Weird Al asked Ray Davies' management and they said no, but when they met in person years later, Davies said no one ever asked him before and he said yes. Unfortunately there's no video but the song sung from Luke Skywalker's point of view was prophetic when Weird Al wrote toward the end:

Well, I heard my friends really got in a mess
So I'm gonna have to leave Yoda I guess
But I know that I'll be coming back some day
I'll be playing this part 'till I'm old and gray

The long-term contract I had to sign
Says I'll be making these movies till the end of time
With my Yoda
Yo-yo-yo-yo Yoda

Mark Hamill is now old and gray like Weird Al said. He's a 67 year old senior citizen, and when Star Wars: Episode IX comes out next year Mark Hamill will still be playing Luke Skywalker 39 years after this song was written. When Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace came out in 1999 Weird Al made a parody song of American Pie by Don McLean called The Saga Begins. It sums up the plot of the movie and the video for it is pretty good.

I recently heard the Red Hot Chili Peppers song Give It Away on the radio and couldn't help thinking of Weird Al's Bedrock Anthem. It's parody of Under the Bridge and Give It Away, from his 1993 album Alapalooza. That was 5 years before he had LASIK for his nearsightedness. I forgot how big his glasses are and don't blame him for not wanting to wear them anymore. The Bee Girl tap dancing is the same girl from the Blind Melon video for No Rain. Here are the videos for all 4 songs.
