Radcliffe loves him. He does a song with Bare Naked Ladies on his latest album.

Yes if you skip "Alabama Chrome." The Barenaked Ladies guest on that track and it never should've made it onto the album. I love Jim White's willingness to throw anything against the wall to see if it sticks, but with that song he managed to miss the entire wall.

Yep. Think of him as a more sing-songy Tom Waits.

Without giving away too much, I'll just tell you to keep an eye on the daily Hip-D updates...

Bob, you are the most self-deprecating, yet self-promoting S.O.B. i've ever come across. Kudos.

You already sent me your top 20 list in the poll, so there's nothing left to give away.

As I said earlier, this is a great album, and should easily break my top 10.

You hit the nail on the head, Bloor. I am filled with the yin-yang of self-loathing and self-importance.

No. It gets better. Favourite tracks (of mine) are that hairstyle song and "Jesus Drove A Motorhome".

Is this the same Jim White that done "Wrong-Eyed Jesus"?

_________________
Throughout his life, from childhood until death, he was beset by severe swings of mood. His depressions frequently encouraged, and were exacerbated by, his various vices. His character mixed a superficial Enlightenment sensibility for reason and taste with a genuine and somewhat Romantic love of the sublime and a propensity for occasionally puerile whimsy.
