On a search for the Music Machine


While working at Brian and Heather’s yesterday somehow we got a couple Music Machine songs stuck in our head.

I think it started with, “Have patience, have patience. Don’t be in such a hurry. Remember, remember you’ll only start to worry. If you get impatient know you need patience too and think about the times when others have to wait on you.”

I’m a little foggy on the lyrics there in the middle but we had fun remembering the great albums of our childhood like the Music Machine, Music Machine II, Bullfrogs and Butterflies, Sir Oliver’s Song, Psalty and Charity the Churchmouse.

I did some searching and was able to find some cool info on Wikipedia about them and now I’m wondering if maybe I or my parents have those records around the house somewhere. I really want to get my hands on them if possible.

I would imagine they were tossed out at some point and now I’m going to have to pay a lot more to get them off eBay. But my search has now begun.

I also found that Psalty has actually kept up with the times and has his own webpage as well as a Myspace page.

Flyleaf to perform on Jimmy Kimmel

Flyleaf Performing on Jimmy Kimmel

Awesome – sad I missed this live. It’s Flyleaf from Belton and Temple, Texas on Jimmy Kimmel Live. Flyleaf bass player Pat Seals went to UMHB the same time I did. I didn’t get to hang with him too often but he was always a fun guy to be around. His dad was a pretty cool art prof too.

And in his name all oppression shall cease

Truly He taught us to love one another,
His law is love and His gospel is peace.
Chains he shall break, for the slave is our brother.
And in his name all oppression shall cease.
Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we,
With all our hearts we praise His holy name.
Christ is the Lord! Then ever, ever praise we,
His power and glory ever more proclaim!
His power and glory ever more proclaim!
Holy Night (verse 3)
Take a moment to read Thomas’ thoughts on Christmas.
I’m glad to be able to count people like Thomas as a friend.
Merry Christmas to you all! Sweet hymns of joy in grateful chorus raise we.
