Oh, my gollies...

You have to Check the Cool Wax.

We're talking hours and hours of time lost in my life from just today alone. I've never been there before, but I know I'm going to be spending a whole crapload of time there in the future.

The concept is a simple one. Some guy - no clue who he is other than my frickin' hero - has taken a bunch of music from old LPs and 78s and 45s and burned them into mp3 format, which he then posts.

We're talking stuff like...

• A disco Wonder Woman theme
• William Shatner Live
• Joe Piscipo and Eddie Murphy together
• Jerry Reed's "The Bandit"
• Dean Martin doing "I Walk the Line"
• Beasite Boys "She's On It" which didn't appear on cd until the Sounds of Science compilation
• Mel Torme's "Secret Agent Man"
• Pee Wee's "Surfin' Bird"
• The Merry Marvel Marching Society
• Old Beastie Boys commercials
• Rappin' Rodney Dangerfield

Honestly, I could post hundreds and hundreds of links from this that entertained me. Go, spend an hour or two on broadband and have a blast.
