What is on your turntable, 8-track, cassette, CD player, or MP3 list?

Today is young so here is what I (and cbow) listened t yesterday. We had fun... I got mixed up and thought it was Friday, got out some Bullett Rye and the rest is history...

1> Stanley Road: Paul Weller

2> Salin' Shoes: Little Feat

3> Marshall Tucker Band: Greatest Hits

4> Harvest: Neil Young

5> Killer: Alice Cooper

6> Pretzel Logic: Steely Dan

7> Del Amitri> Twisted

8> American Beauty: The Grateful Dead

9> Layla and Other Assorted Love Songs: Derek and the Dominoes (listened through Little Wing)

10> Axis: Bold as Love: Jimi (istened through Little Wing...(so much better))

11> The Band: The Band


Bedtime, read two pages of a book and fell asleep... feel good today too, life is improving here... and this week I get TWO Fridays! Hey, if there isn't a ballgame check out the online stream of WREK. It is the GA Tech radio station and right around 6:00, sometimes earlier, something a little later they start off with the "Friday Fish Fry", their BLUES show, then they play the Classic Rock Album which is usually really good, then they go into a show for about three hours called Stonehenge and they have a really, really great archive of classic rock... the stuff you NEVER hear on regular FM radio... anyway, if you think about it and want to try it: http://www.wrek.org/fishfry/ and http://stonehengeatlanta.blogspot.com/

Have a great day, and evening and a better tomorrow!

Only one CD in my Bose nightstand player..I go to sleep
with Pat Matheny playing his acoustics.

I'm wanting to write a tune and record it so I'm not
listening to anything else until I'm done. (Matheny won't influence me...he's
in a world of his own :)

If they shot guns you'd know them, roight 'erb?

So who is Arvo Ojala? And don't cheat. If you do...you know you're a cheater.
 
 

These days, a lot of old Alice Cooper - early 70s stuff mostly - including Killers, what an awesome record! - but w/ a few visits to the solo stuff from the late 70s.

Though I can't say that he's my all time favorite artist, I do have great affinities w/ his music. I've recorded covers of many, many Cooper songs over the years, from Levity Ball to I Love the Dead, to Black Juju and in a variety of genre, from rock to electro/industrial. 

In fact, I'm working on 2 or 3 different Alice Cooper covers for our current project w/ my wife - it'll be hard to narrow our choice to just one of these.

I always thought it'd make for a nice Cirque du Soleil show - a Alice Cooper retrospective. 

Incidentally, my wife just brought this thing from 1971 for the walls of my work area. :) Sets the ambience.

The Wishing Tree's 'Ostara', Mark Hollis' eponymous (and only) album, and Wolfstone's 'Almost an Island'. Just finished reading Alan Garner's 'Boneland'.

Dang, I don't know these either. Between, You, Jules, and Craig I have some listening to do.


BTW, your avatar scares me.

Just one play list here but it over 8k songs long.

Rock from 60s to present

I'd put money on the kids these days not knowing them, either.

Brief primer from the world of Jules:


Sigur Ros is crazy interesting Icelandic ambient chill, with much of the lyrics written in a made up language that mimics Icelandic, but isn't.  The idea being, the listener make up his/her own meaning.  It's lovely and ethereal and weird, that stuff.


The Brits will know Pulp... And probaby Curve and Morcheeba (90s British bands).


Cat Power, you should know.  Great songwriter, if a bit out there for most.


Zero 7, Demotchka, Jean-Paul Bondy and Trentmøller are all ambient chill of the languid beat driven variety. My favorite.  It's gotta have a beat, or I'm done.


Santigold is new to me and she has a great voice.

This is on my turntable as we type ...



My favorite song on the album is Mary In The Morning ... just think of all the people involved in this recording and the effort that went in to capturing everything on tape. It really blows my mind. And to think, some guy just sits there with Komplete 8 Ultimate now and does it by point and click. :(

Here's a link to the original from the LP on the toob.

He does an amazing job on Crying by Roy as well on this album.

Wichita Lineman is still, by far, my favorite Glen Campbell song.

Thanks for the reminder... I remember that album from my child hood.


It was from an era when Hollywood did as nice a job as Nashville.


Listening to it NOW!

Similar to The Cocteau Twins then? I liked them.

Listening to 'Valtari' at the moment..great stuff, right up my street.
