Why don't you just get one super-wide one? ?

I definitely agree with you regarding his work with Miles, and yes, most of his Return to Forever work, but Romantic Warrior is a standout. (The first three tracks are from that album. The other two are from Al Di Meola albums.) And I will admit to not being familiar with his entire catalog, but lyrical melodicism ( ) is top notch when it's there.

I love Chick Corea. One of the things I have always loved about his music is his melodies -- Medieval Overture, Romantic Warrior, Duel of the Jester and the Tyrant, Señor Mouse, Isfahan, etc. -- he always had a lyricism to his melodies that I much prefer to the more abstract jazzes. But he's done "simple" before -- specifically, the album that woke me up to his melodies, I rented from the library once and almost never returned it (I now have my own copy), Children's Songs. Definitely check it out if this interests you. I need to revisit Leprechaun and My Spanish Heart. I seem to remember they were particularly melodious as well, but I don't remember them that well, so I could be remembering wrong. So...thanks for sharing!

Heal well and quickly!

Prolly somewhere between rubbing alcohol and appletini

(makes a note of it) I haven't read anything like Tim Powers, so I will definitely give him a go.

...or an excellent choice.

I just couldn't figure out how to do it, otherwise I would.

Pictures, we want pictures.

The Avalanches make the greatest music videos.

What does she keep saying? "I'm your man"? No you ain't. Me: looking forward to the remixes.

Want. And I just got an old Mac Mini a couple months ago.

Happy belated! (party favour noise)

This makes me giggle like a 5th grader

I saw boobies.

Everything I know about life as a Brit comes from Doctor Who, the Cornetto trilogy, and my imaginary friends on the Internet, of which I have surprisingly many.

Is it in the cellar?

Thank you, everyone! This thread makes me smile like visiting a strip club do. It's like you know me. The day started out pretty lazy -- I've been trying to have a different fine meal for lunch and dinner every day this weekend, and I totes screwed up yesterday, and barely remembered to eat, but it ended with a very nice concert in Philadelphia (the farthest I've driven in months by a long shot).

Steak, done Thai style. It's ackshully quite medium rare, emphasis on the rare.
