Invisible Jukeboxes

Busy busy busy. The machinery of life is complicated and unpredictable.

This post is lifted from Feuilleton.

“Invisible Jukebox is one of the longest running regular features in The Wire magazine, a cross between music interview and music quiz in which a different interviewee each month is asked to listen to a piece of music and identify the title and artist.”
