I was just reading that “Baby It’s Cold Outside” has been banned from some radio stations. I can only imagine how this proto-punk classic would go down.

Makerbot’s Malcolm Young post reminded me of this great song by the Easybeats, featuring his older brother George on guitar. Later covered by Bowie on Pin Ups album.

Insane Watch Restoration
For you, Makerbot.

Some of these are hilarious. Great parody of “jazz dance” beginning at 12:40.
