After years of toiling, I’ve finally hit the big time. I’ve been selected as a finalist as one of America’s next Top Hot Messes!

But now it’s up to you, readers. Can you make me and Morris Day stars? I have to be honest, the competition is top-notch - not sure how I could ever compete with #11, but I’m gonna try.

Vote for hot mess #5 here!  And in honor of all the messes, a song from the year this picture was taken:

Boogie Boys
You Ain’t Fresh (Morning Dew Mix)
12″, 1985
“It’s like a bulldog in an UGLY show!”

Hey my people. Just wanted to drop a line and let you know I’m still here - I guess my real life (I mean the non-ridiculous one where I have a job and a family and talk about other stuff besides obscure boogie and frenching) has been keeping me away from my bloggy blog lately.

But I haven’t forgotten about you. I’ll be back in the next few weeks…

Until then, enjoy a couple joints I can’t stop with these days:

Run-DMC
Mary, Mary
Tougher Than Leather, 1988

Nas Feat. Lauryn Hill
If I Ruled the World (Imagine That)
It Was Written, 1996

Love De-Luxe
Here Comes That Sound Again
12″, 1979

Some of you may have noticed that my old Atom news feed doesn’t work any more. That’s because Wordpress doesn’t use Atom feeds. Eff Blogger!

Please update your feeds to http://morebounce-oz.com/feed. You can copy the url by clicking my funky RSS icon in the upper right, below my header. Or you can grab my Feedburner feed by clicking the icon at the bottom of my sidebar.

Thanks to Aaron for reminding me.

Hey y’all - check my new bloggy blog. What do you think? It’s more, no?

ps - big ups to Pauly B for the superdef header, and to R$ for nerd support.

Zapp & Roger
More Bounce to the Ounce
Zapp, 1980

Because of crazy hotlinking (Lawd, who needs that many copies of “Fergalicious?”) links on >bounce/oz to mp3s will now only be available for about 90 days.

But I know some of the older joints I post are hard to find - so if you read a post with a song you’d like, hit my sky pager: morebounce.oz [at] gmail.com and I will be happy to hook a brother or sister up.
