Beating a dead horse called Tunesday

Caravan & The New Symphonia - the band didles with a symphony back in 1973.

Proto-Kaw - Before Became After. I don't know, this got raving reviews but I must be missing something. I'll have to listen some more. It just doesn't have the musical hooks that Kansas had. It is heavier though than I expected it to be.

David Myers Plays Genesis. Myers was the keyboard player in The Musical Box from their start until 2004. Here he plays a number of older Genesis tunes on the grand piano.

Okay, FA. Are you trying to tell me that you listened to all of those albums today? Or is the Tuesday thread for all of the albums you listened to in the past week?

Lately:

The 88 - Over and Over
I expected something a little more on the punk side (not sure why) but this is heavily Beatles and Kinks influenced. Nice, but haven't spent a ton of time with it yet.

Boris - Akuma No Uta
Wow, this is some rockin' sh*t. Good stuff, but I wish they didn't have the space-pop interludes.

High On Fire - Blessed Black Wings
I can't get enough of this one.

Bob Dylan - John Wesley Harding
In my estimation, one of his best albums.

Gang Gang Dance - God's Money
I've only listened to this once, but my reaction was: WTF is this?

Bonnie "Prince" Billie - I See a Darkness

Kraftwerk - The Man-Machine

[BradH]

Otis Redding - Otis Blue (MoFi Ultradisc)
Iron Butterfly - Metamorphosis
Earth, Wind & Fire - That's The Way Of The World (MoFi Ultradisc)
Parliament - P-Funk Earth Tour
Earth, Wind & Fire - All N All
Captain Beyond
Isaac Hayes - Hot Buttered Soul (MoFi Ultradisc)
Gong - Gazeuse!
Parliament - Motor Booty Affair
The Syn - Joe's Pub, NYC Jan 8, 2006
Funkadelic - One Nation Under A Groove
Earth, Wind & Fire - The Eternal Dance Rarities (I picked these out of the 3-disc set)

That may have been more than one week. I just grabbed the stack and started typing.

English Settlement is in heavy rotation when I grab the Carvin lately. (I don't want to have to actually learn anything new. Sort of an air guitar mentality, I guess.)

[Slosh]

Boris - Akuma No Uta
Wow, this is some rockin' shit. Good stuff, but I wish they didn't have the space-pop interludes.

I downloaded Pink but haven't had enough spin time to see if I want to buy it or just delete the damn thing. Kinda like a faster Melvins, only Japanese.

I also downloaded most of Tapes 'n Tapes The Loon a couple of days ago. Funny that Pitchfork reviewed it today. Only a couple of spins so far but I'll probably end up buying this one. I'll need to make a CD-RW copy to listen to on the way to work to know for sure first.

NP:Spoon - Telephono

[BradH]

More from the cutting edge...

Jeff Beck - Flash (Even worse than I remember. Only one good track.)
R.E.M. - Murmur (MFSL)
The Beatles - A Hard Day's Night (DESS Blue Box)
The Beatles - Revolver (DESS Blue Box)
Kate Bush - The Kick Inside
The Mahavishnu Orchestra - The Inner Mounting Flame (MFSL)
Yes - Wembley, Oct 26, 1978 (Too bad the Beeb didn't record this night instead of the 28th.)

Seems like there was more but I can't remember.

Isobel Campbell\Mark Lanegan ~ Ramblin' Man ep prelude to their new release.This is one great 4 song cd. Can't wait for the biggie size.

M.E. Smith and the Farm Noir Ensemble..think Dolly with an edge. Think $1.CDN at Cash Converters

Wow - I haven't been here in many moons. Hope all my old RR amigos are doing well.

Earlier, I was spinning Jimmy Smith - Got My Mojo Workin'. It is a Verve vinyl version I recorded to my HDD.

Now I just finished Jay Farrar - Live in Seattle.

Okay, FA. Are you trying to tell me that you listened to all of those albums today? Or is the Tuesday thread for all of the albums you listened to in the past week?

I was going to tell you to "do the math genius", but after looking at the list and since I didn't post until after 3:00pm, I guess that it could be possible that I did listen to all those disks today....if I didn't sleep. But since we share genetic sleeping habits..."do the math genius!".

After putting up with the hassles of vision-correction for over 30 years, I finally got my eyeballs lasered on Friday. It was fast and relatively painless (after the first 5 hours or so), and now I can see 20/20 without contacts or glasses.

Sorry to jack the thread, but I'm pretty torqued up over this. Carry on.

And you should be torqued up! Congratulations Mr M. I can only imagine how great it must feel to wake up in the morning, open your eyes, and be able to see clearly. I too have been wearing glasses full-time for 30 years. I would give up my entire CD collection and all future purchases to have unassisted 20/20 vision. But I'm not a good candidate for long-term success with this surgery. You, however, enjoy your new eyes!!

Ditto!!

I've been toying with the idea, myself.

Way to go, Mr. M.

My week has not been too musical.

In short,

Bobby Bare -- The Moon Was Blue
Jackson Browne -- Saturate Before Using & Late For the Sky
U2 - War
The Who - My Generation (Deluxe Edition)

Took a break from new music (cleansing the old palatte with comfortably old music), other than the Bobby Bare which sounds good'n'old, any way.

[Dave_G]

You people here are sooooooo weird.

That's why I fit in 100%.

Kerry Livgren - One of several Possible Musics - acoustic instrumental fluff. zzzz.

Pendragon - Believe. The new one. Typical Pendragon stuff.

PT - Warazawa - good.

The Fixx - React. I doggoned LOVE The Fixx. Muy Excelente.

Gary Numan - Living Ornaments 1981. Uh huh live Numan. Wish there was video...

Thin Lizzy - Johnny the Fox - excellent. On vinyl to boot.

The Police - Synchronicity concert, laserdisc. I was at this gig. Best part? Stewart Copeland on drums. That guy was awesome. Sting of sourse had the chicks throwing panties at him (must be nice)
