Last night the moon came ...

Ah, new Jon Hassell, anyone else been getting lost in this lately? Very nice, quiet too, really have to give the vc a big twirl. Refreshing in these modern days. Course the guy is old as a rock now, but still blows a cool sound through that horn. One of the best things I've heard this year, if you dig that future jazz sound.

Anybody got a half gone workin' yet? Little over half gone, I guess. Been anticipating the new Signal Morning with all the elephants in one place again, even the elusive Magnum from what I've heard. Could a new one from OTC be far behind? Rockin' new Cracker, but seems a bit adolescent. Do some bands grow younger with age? Manic Street Preachers really crank it up on the new one, even got Steve Albini to do the recording, but CD is one of those big label master jobs, all the same level, not a hint of dynamics or musical nuance. Haven't heard that much other stuff, yet.
