Is that Lucifuge? That one and the first one are the only two I have. I don't listen to them often, but I like them. At the end of the day, though, to me nothing Danzig has done compares to that early Misfits material.

yeah it's Lucifuge. III - How The Gods Kill is very good too

I am currently 'Relaxing with Miles Davis' :)

hmmm...I have that one, too - the cheap original jazz classics lp (most of them sound just as good as the 180gm deluxe versions). Haven't listened to Relaxin' in a long, long time. I'll give it a spin this weekend.

Back to Daphnis et Chloe -- sort of. Another ballet that I would like to get is Prokofiev's Romeo & Juliet. Do you have a recommendation for a particular version of this piece?

...was innocently coming home and got caught in the tractor beam...couldn't help it...picked up the following for Sat. afternoon:

Pink Floyd-DSOTM SACD( yeah, I should have gotten this sooner,a MUST HAVE,blah,blah blah, leave me alone I'm new )

Keb' Mo'--Just Like You

Allison Krause+US--New Favorite ( see above )

Netrebko and Villazon--Violetta

DiMeola,McLaughlin,DeLucia--Friday Night in San Fransisco

Hillary Hahn--Bach Violin Concertos

Munch/BS--Saint-Saens/Debussy

Sarah Brightman--Harem

Lined up to take their turn at the start of the weekend are:

Jerry Harrison-Casual Gods

Richard Hawley-Coles Corner

Jimmy Little-Messenger

Bernd

I don't have it yet Dave. Only listened to the three full mp3 songs that have been out there for a few months, but it was released in Europe last year so has gotten some good press. Might make a sojourn to the record store today myself, but lately all I've been spinning is that excellent new Steve Wynn ...tick...tick...tick CD, which was coincidentally released in Europe last year as well, but not until a few weeks ago here.

That John Fahey CD is pretty cool. Some of us were just talking about him, and a bunch of tangents, and relations, over at Head-Fi last month ... http://www5.head-fi.org/forums/showt...26#post1886126 ... are you a very big fan? That CD you played is actually the only one I have.

Grabbed Starving Winter Report today and it is very tasty. I'll have it rotation for an extended period.

I'm a pretty big Fahey fan - but I'm a bigger Leo Kottke fan. Most folks seem to prefer Transfiguration, but I really like I Remember Blind Joe Death better. Don't really know why, but 20 some-odd years had passed and I just liked where Fahey was at that particular point in time. Now the original Blind Joe Death is a masterpiece and is what set the standard for folks like Leo Kottke, Peter Lang (for the short time he was with us) and others to measure themselves against. Just my opinion mind you.

If you get a chance to check out the John Fahey, Leo Kottke & Peter Lang collaboration, do so - it is knock you on your knees good.

How old is that Dave? Sounds like it would be kinda nice. What kind of backing?

Hey, I stopped by your old place yesterday to see what our old bud tentoze was listening to and got myself banned too. Boy, sure don't take much to get that old grumpy guy mad at you ;)

Handsome Family: Twilight is playing right now.

Great music and even greater Sunday coming down music...

Dang, this reminds me that I really need to fill out my collection of that wacky duo. Been a while since they put a new one out, also.

You said it Davey!

Austin Sessions was released in 1999 and contains new recordings of his best songs. Great supporting lineup - Jackson Browne, Steve Earle, Matraca Berg, Vince Gill, Marc Cohn, Alison Krauss, Catie Curtis and Mark knopfler. Kris has never sounded better IMO.

I salute your selection Mr. Nobody, most excellent!

-dave

Yup Handsome Family is a must listen around here. Singing Bones was their last release in like 2003 or so, I think. Haven't heard of anything in the works, but I'd think its about time they came out with something new soon.

I haven't heard anything they've put out that I didn't like, although I did miss the first couple...didn't hear anything prior to Through the Trees. Anyone think any of the earlier ones are must-haves?

Oh yeah...and now that Twilight is over, I stuck with 'em and have Invisible Hands playing...vinyl only EP.

Odessa and Milk & Scissors are the earliest Handsome Family releases that I'm aware of. Neither are very highly regarded. They figured out what and who they are with Through the Trees IMO.

-dave

Humpday is drawing to a close and the B.O.T. has been out all day (bloody cold never the less).

And rotating to ease me into the evening is:

Thea Gilmore - Avalanche

followed by

The Finn Brothers - Everyone is here

Greetings

Bernd

...as all projects are complete and I found myself walking around the office in circles.
Easing in to the day with Telarc's Weather Report compilation ( God, Omar Hakim can play some drums! ) and on deck are:

Robert Lockwood's " Delta Crossroads"

John Coltrane's " Blue Train "

Dave Brubeck's " Time Out "

Clapton's " Me and Mr. Johnson "


Cheers to all!

Nice choice.Enjoy.

Taking his deserved turn on the circular spot is:

Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers - The Last DJ

Greetings

Bernd

lo and behold the sun came out today ( it's been miserable here for weeks ) so, of course,it is time to put away the cellos, violins, horns, etc. and bring out the GUITARS.
With car keys in hand I run out into the city to find some R'nR. Hope your enjoying yours.

M

Francis Poulenc - Sonata for Clarinet and Piano

Mozart - Violin Concerto No. 3, 4

People Under the Stairs - Original Sound Track (O.S.T.)

Horace Paraln - On the Spur of the Moment

Joe Puma - Shining Hour

Grant Green - His Majestik King Funk


Does anybody know any great classical recordings? Nothing orchestral just small ensembles.

Why did we ban you Davey?


Alan

Lending a helping hand on the circle to ease me into the weekend is:

The House of Love - Days Run Away

Superb

Bernd

Going round at the moment are:

Southside Johnny & the Ashbury Jukes - Better Days.

Have good one

Bernd

Maria Muldaur "Waitress In The Donut Shop"

Thanks bobsticks I did not know there was a Weather Report compilation on Telarc. I have been a WR fan for a long time. I will be checking it out.

Nothing really. I jokingly took issue with grumpy's rudeness and foul language, and he apparently didn't appreciate it so put up the ban and deleted my posts (and of course his too since he was the instigator ;)). Guess it was only for a week since it seems to be down now. No biggie since I don't really post over there anyway.

Got Lucinda Williams Austin City Limits playing right now. "Pineola". Hot stuff ...

Born and raised in Pineola his mama believed in the Pentecost
She got the preacher to say some words so his soul wouldn't get lost

Went looking in the stacks for an oldy but a goody today - and I found one!

Bruce Cockburn ~ Dancing in the Dragon's Jaws

To quote Mr. Lund - Woooooooo-wee. Boy, that was a miiiighty fine a-pickin' and a-singin' :6:

-dave

A point of clarification, the Telarc release is actually a tribute abulm..."Celebrating the Music of"...kind of deal. Pretty much a who's who; the rogues gallery of bass players includes Victor Bailey, Marcus Miller, Will Lee and John Patitucci.
Definately a collection of heavyweights with an unpredictable result. The cd has some new interpretations of classic material, and while the production is polished it doesn't come of as poppy or trite. Should please both purists and casual listeners alike. I highly recommend you give it a listen but didn't want you to purchase it under the impression that it was remastered originals or the like.
Enjoy

Been spinning some records today...nothing new or that I haven't mentioned here before...

<b>Hall & Oates: Rock & Soul part 1</b>
Not much of a fan of their work as the 80s progressed, but Sara Smiles, Rick Girl and She's Gone are fantastic songs.

<b>The Clash: London Calling</b>
Simply a classic...no point in saying anything more than if you haven't herard it...what are you waiting for?

<b>Junior Byles: Chant Down Babylon</b>
Lee Perry produced reggae. Good groves on a lazy day.

<b>The Skatallites: Last Train to Skaville</b>
If you are interested in Jamaican ska, not many better places to start.

needles about to drop on <b>Erykah Badu: Worldwide Underground</b>...an excellent slice of neo-soul from my favorite modern, female r&b singer...so I gotta run...

Starting off with Kate York's self titled EP to be followed by Michelle Malone ~ Beneath the Devil Moon

Tasty!

-dave

Perfect Sunday afternoon listening is provided by:

Graham Parker - Human Soul

Bernd

...blasts from the past coming from every direction.

Nobody: London Calling was an eventuality for this forum,not stuffy enough for others. But, you really got me with "Skatallites". Thats great it, takes me back to college.

Bernd: Ya hit me with Southside Johnny and then one-upped it with Graham Parker!
By the way, checked with local hole in the wall, specialty cd/vinyl cave for the Waterboys.Evidence was left in form of titled divider card but no product. The gentleman behind the makeshift counter agreed to order me a couple of titles so I'll check those out later in the week.

Enjoy your music

Murray Head ~ Emotions

here is an artist that took Quebec and surrounding areas by storm. He had hits with *say It Ain't So Joe*

He has always been a favorite

As of late, anything and just about everything by The Band.
