The Doors
My “This Week In Music History” feature went out again this week over at the Spinner.
This was one of the weirdest columns I’d done in awhile. There was Jim Morrison of The Doors getting arrested on stage, George Harrison getting stabbed over 40 times by a crazy person, and James Brown in an interstate car chase.

John Lennon
My “This Week In Music History” feature went out again this week over at the Spinner.
Technically this was last week’s This Week In Music History column, but I’ve been busy, and sick, so stuff it. There’s stuff about John Lennon, Black Flag and The Rolling Stones‘ Altamont adventure in there.

Zombies
Sarah has an uneven history with zombies.
You might even go so far as to suggest she hates them.
Her feelings on the undead didn’t stop her, however, when she was asked to compile a list of the best zombie songs for Spinner.
The resulting list featured the likes of Buck 65, Harry Belafonte and Insane Clown Posse.

Carmen Electra
For those of you not up on your back-in-the-day music history, former Baywatch babe Carmen Electra was once a protege of Prince and put out an album in 1993 that he helped guide.
Then she became a Baywatch babe and never really recorded any more music. Because, well, Baywatch was the biggest show in the world at one point.
Anyway, Electra’s making music again and Sarah talked to her about it for Spinner. Electra wants to do a song with Skrillex.

Because Spinner is RIP you can now read this interview here.
Here’s a wonderful video of her called “Go Go Dancer”:
