Me? I should probably just lay on it...

After the breakup of the Beatles in 1970, Paul McCartney began teaching his wife, Linda McCartney (September 1941 - April 1998), to play keyboards, and added her to the lineup for his new band, Wings. Paul was ridiculed by music critics for her poor singing and playing skills,
LINDA McCARTNEY SINGS "HEY JUDE" (2.8 Mb mp3 at 64Kbps)
The link above is supposedly of a bootleg recording originating from isolating Linda McCartney's microphone at a Wings concert taken by a sound engineer, but whether it is genuine has not been definitively established. The track is taken off the first disc of the two disc set Celebrities at their Worst, Volume Two.

I stumbled across a rather infamous Bill Hicks show from Chicago in 1989 most often referred to as the "Bill Loses It Show", and later released as the bootleg I'm Sorry, Folks.
These are some of the classic moments from that show:
Bill 1 (290 Kb mp3 @ 24 Kbps)
Bill 2 (338 Kb mp3 @ 24 Kbps)
Bill 3 (277 Kb mp3 @ 24 Kbps)
Bill 4 (273 Kb mp3 @ 24 Kbps)
Bill 5 (410 Kb mp3 @ 24 Kbps)
Comedian Bill Hicks (Dec 1961 - Feb 1994), though appearing many times on Letterman and in Rolling Stone magazine, is mostly an underground legend. His dark humor, satire, controversial subject matter, wit and social criticisms brought him many deserved fans, as well as praise from the bands Tool and Radiohead to comedians David Cross, Jon Stewart and Joe Rogan.

I was just recently (thanks
to a cyberpal) turned on to Scopitones.
France's Scopitones (and its Italian cousin Cinebox) were music video jukeboxes.
Twenty years before Mtv and with way better material.
They had sexy... James Darren's "Because You're Mine" (13 megabyte Quicktime movie)
They had weird... The Martin Circus' "Je M'eclate Au Senegal" plus Arabic videos like Oukil Amar's "Tizi Ouzou" and Noura's "Ammi Belcacem"
They had classics... Herb Alpert's "Tijuana Taxi" (12 megabyte Quicktime movie)
They had garage... Les 5 Gentlemen's "Cara-Lin" and The Legendaries' "Good For Nothing Bill"
And they even had S&M…
George De Giafferi's "Sado Maso"
(18 megabytes Quicktime movie)
By the way, the first few lines of that last song go as follows:
Opening line: Owwww! That's
good.
Man: Eat this spider!
Woman: Ok, but that's the last one.
Man: It's time for you to get whipped!
Woman: Oh great, I love that!
Man: Now burn my chest!
Woman: With what my love?
Man: Use your cigarette!
Woman: It's smells like grilled pork!

Anyone see the new Mexican stamps considered racist by many?
The five-stamp series features
Memín Pinguín, a character from a comic book Pepín
created in 1940 by Alberto Cabrera, which later became Memín in
1943.
A spokesman for the Mexican Embassy described the depiction as a cultural image
that has no meaning and is not intended to offend, but folks like Jesse Jackson
and Al Sharpton didn't agree.

Backmasking is the intentional or unintentional placing of messages either regularly so when played backwards they say something different, or backwards so the are unintelligible when heard regularly. For years the Christian right has used supposed instances of backmasking to rail against popular music, calling it "Satanic". The links below are believed to be coincidences of unintentional messages when a song is played backwards.

As you may have seen on
many a screen, almost all TV shows are "closed captioned" for the
hearing impaired, but did you know that with a DVS box (Descriptive Video Service)
the visually impaired can enjoy TV as an audio feed which describes the action
going on.
This system attaches to a television and will then pick up an audio feed run
by the television program that we cannot hear, as it is on a specific audio
channel that only the box can receive.
The Simpsons - DVS episode "Rapture" (May 08, 2005) (4Mb mp3 @ 24Kbps)
The above link is to an
episode where Homer rents a Christian movie called Left Below (based
on the LaHaye Left Behind series) and begins to predict the end of times
and becomes a prophet to many of the Springfield townsfolk.
You may notice that while they are trying to be descriptive, they are also omitting
scenes, such as when Homer tells the news crew that hippies may want to smoke
marijuana (by pretending to smoke a joint) to view the apocalypse - the announcer
just says, "Homer pretends to smoke," and when Homer and Marge make
love, they don't say a word about it.

Volcanology researchers
were growing bored of looking at numbers and graphs when charting volcanic activity,
so they turned seismographic patterns into musical scores and then played them
using a MIDI interpreter on a computer.
Here are two volcanoes whose activity you can compare "musically":
MT. ETNA in Italy (1.3 Mb mp3 @ 192Kbps)
TUNGURAHUA in Ecuador (1.3 Mb mp3 @ 192Kbps)
The researcher responsible for this synthpunk weirdness is Domenico Vicinanza of Italy.
