What is spinning?

[nobody]

Wish I could help you on which track that ones taken from, but I'm clueless.

Been getting in a bit of a reggae mode lately. Looking forward to a week from today when Toots & the Maytals come to town.

Last night, among other things...


Lou Reed

I think this is a wrongly maligned album; his first solo outing. It gets a bad rap because most of the songs appear elsewhere, but I like the versions here in most cases. The arrangements are more straight ahead garagey rock with some fun back-up vocals tossed into the mix. Probably one of the most conventional albums he ever did in many ways. Even the wife, who generally can't stand Lou Reed was digging I Can't Stand It, the opening track. Oh, and I really like the cover.


and this morning...


Modest Mouse: We Were Dead Before The Ship Even Sank

Most of you probably know more about Modest Mouse then I do as I've usually kinda glossed over 'em and found the bits and pieces I have heard a bit boring. But, Johnny Marr joining up for this one got my attention, and I really liked it so far. Seems to be more diversity of sounds than the other stuff I've heard outta them. Not sure if I like this one better than the rest of their output or if I just need to give their other stuff a chance, but I'll keep listening to this one.
