Has anyone seen this? It's a new CD with cover versions and songs inspired by the musical/film Hedwig & the Angry Inch , which is a bit of a - well, I don't really want to sum it up - dark, funny 'alternative' rock opera. There, I've made it sound shit. (Anyway- there was a thread about the film ages ago)

The CD looks interesting. There's songs by Frank Black, Polyphonic Spree, They Might be Giants, the Breeders and Bob Mould, and there's also some very strange team-ups, including: Sleater-Kinney with Fred Schneider of the B-52's, Yoko Ono & Yo La Tengo, Ben Folds and Ben Kweller, and Cyndi Lauper and the Minus 5. (Must confess I don't know all of these people, but all the same - !!!!?????!!).

My sister will, no doubt, bite and kick her way to the front of the line for that. Is there something online about it that I can forward her?

There's samples on amazon...

Frank Black doing 'Sugar Daddy' is dreadful in a fun kind of way...
