Pop Song of the Week: “Put a Lid on It”
Embeddable music videos are fast becoming extinct on the Net so I might well start posting a few before they vanish altogether.
This week I post a song from the Squirrel Nut Zippers' 1996 album Hot. After all, we seem to be still reliving the 30s and the Squirrel Nut Zippers captured the spirit of those days a whole lot better than any of their contemporaries. Plus I like how lead vocalist Katharine Whalen channels the spirit of the late Billie Holiday. Not many female singers can pull off such a feat without looking stupid and many wouldn't even try. But then Ms. Whalen is a goddess. So there.
I hope you all enjoy it.
