The people from western Mass are OK, it's the people east of 495 that are Massholes. Of course, in the 23 years since I lived there, the event horizon may have expanded somewhat to the west.

And north!

Ben And Sweets

Crowded House -- Time On Earth

McCoy Tyner -- Hip Toe

Amon Duul II - Phallus Dei (MPO France)

Sin

Labradford- A stable reference

Revolting - Dreadful Pleasures

This is the best death metal I've heard in ages. Old school.

Son Volt -- American Central Dust

Boards of Canada - Dayvan Cowboy

This song is way too good.

Requiem, C Hogwood

Neil Young -- Live At Massey Hall 1971

Like being there. Whoa.

Mazzy Star -- So Tonight That I Might See

Produced by Walter Becker... first run through, just half way through the third track... sounding great on the 'planars (bass guitar on this track sounds wicked, drums/percussion elements as well, signature WB...), songs pretty good thus far too! All-star session musicians all over... Lots of elements absolutely stink of WB...

Have I mentioned that 'stretch is most unquestionably The Man?

Smashing Pumpkins - Adore

De La Soul - The Grind Date

Kaki King - Dreaming of Revenge

In Rainbows - radiohead.

Rage Against The Machine - Rage Against The Machine

It is one of those days at work, less than 3 weeks as assistant manager and massive fuckups from both above (huge budget shortfall) and below (stupid shit). Yay!

Massive Attack -- 100th Window

Morrissey -- Bona Drag

Stan Getz, Gerry Mulligan DCCgold

Regina Spektor - Far
