Roxy Music -- Heart Still Beating

Wilco - Wilco

Jarvi, Rite of Spring, SACD

Cannibal Corpse - The Wretched Spawn

on a whim. Much different than any Cannibal Corpse I've ever heard.

I'll refrain from posting the graphics

Paul McCartney & Wings -- Band On The Run

Nimbus Supercut needledrop.

Big Star -- Radio City

24/96 vinyl rip.

Crowded House -- Together Alone

You know how some albums are so tied to a particular period of your life and so freighted with emotional resonances that you can hardly bear to hear them even though you love them?

Hit me.

Both AWESOME!! I can never decide whether #1 Record or Radio City is my fav... leaning towards Radio City these days. As for Together Alone... very good but not sure Time On Earth isn't my fav of theirs! It's seriously frickin' good! Saw them on their latest tour, in the pissing rain... so worth it!

Luckily I can't think of many albums I can't enjoy due to heavy play during shitty life periods... only thing that pops out is Feist, which reminds me of when things were *seriously* fucked up with The Girl I'm Gonna Marry Some Day ...

Currently spinning on the 'pod:

The Sighs - What Goes On (1992)

Stretchy, have you heard this? You'll love it!!! Let me know...

The Pursuit of Happiness - Love Junk (1988)

Ridiculously good Canadian college-radio pop rock with a decent amount of bite and a somewhat-more-than-healthy dollop of sexual frustration. This, their debut, was produced by Todd Rundgren... 13 tracks, 9 of which are killer, which is a pretty damn good ratio!

Rossini - Famous Overtures

Duncan Browne - Streets of Fire (1979)

Though I only really like 4 of the 7 tracks, those four are absolutely, ridiculously, outrageously fantastic...

Malevolent Creation - Retribution

Have you discovered Ephel Duath yet? Painter's Palette. Metal with a lot of variety, some jazz elements.

not yet...hmm

Cliff Martinez - Solaris Motion Picture Soundtrack

Fuck, this is a beautiful album.

Trumpet time!

Dave Douglas -- Keystone

Enrico Rava | Stefano Bollani -- The Third Man

Lee Morgan -- Tomcat

Dead Can Dance -- Selections From North America 2005

Nice session with mostly originals, including some by Wayne Shorter who is also part of the line-up.

Soft Cell -- The Art Of Falling Apart

The synth medley of Hendrix hits is worth the price of admission on its own.

I prefer the 10 minute "Martin".

I prefer the 10 minute "Martin".

Also good.

Others involved agree.

Neil Young & Crazy Horse -- Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere

Massive Attack vs. Mad Professor -- No Protection

This is my new favorite Chopin recording.

Hollow Bamboo - Ronu Majumdar [HYBRID SACD]

Indian Architexture - Ustad Ali Akhbar Khan [Water Lily Acoustics Vinyl LP]

Khansahib passed away June 19th, 2009. I will really miss him. He has been an inspiring Indian Classical figure with a great influence on the musical part of my life. A massive loss to the Indian Classical genre. His soul really quenched the thirst of many an Indian Classical lovers life.

Lutoslawski/Bartok, Concertos for Orchestra, Jarvi, SACD
