July 24, 200916 yr Terrible name for a new thread (open to change). Bands you are dicovering new or old. For me its The Heads, Pharaoh Overlord and Stinking Lizaveta.
July 24, 200916 yr Listened to Mercan Dede on recommendation from Smeggy last night and can't stop. I now own everything he's done under that name. I'm also trying to work my way through Bowie.
July 24, 200916 yr The Heads, as in the Talking Heads minus David Byrne? My latest old discovery was Wishbone Ash. Dang they were good. Edited July 24, 200916 yr by Dusty Chalk
July 25, 200916 yr Author The Heads, as in the Talking Heads minus David Byrne? My latest old discovery was Wishbone Ash. Dang they were good. The Heads ? Discover music, videos, concerts, & pictures at Last.fm the 2nd band (album under the stress)
July 25, 200916 yr The Rolling Stones Never liked them back in the day. Digging them now, working my way from Beggar's Banquet to Voodoo Lounge.
July 25, 200916 yr David Bowie, I've alway's listened to the odd track, but know I seem to be listening all the time. ( Probablly move on to someone else next week !!! )
July 25, 200916 yr Stormy Six. I always liked Rock in Opposition but somehow never listened to these guys. It was a very pleasant surprise when I "discovered" them
July 26, 200916 yr I'd been getting back into Black Rebel Motorcycle Club after hearing and buying their latest SC (Baby81). Via listening on last.fm to similar, I had run across a few bands that I liked who I will probably be buying cds of... The Black Angels The Ravonettes And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead Shiny Toy Guns The Warlocks Girl in a Coma The Duke Spirit The Kills
July 26, 200916 yr Trilok Gurtu, Nitin Sawhney, Franz Ferdinand. Trilok Gurtu is awesome especially the early stuff and CMP albums. He also played with Embryo and german drummer Peter Giger on some of his percussion extravaganza albums.
August 2, 200916 yr The Minutemen. I was always an East Coast and British Punk kinda guy. I mean I heard and liked Fear and the DK's, but somehow I totally missed the Minutemen. I picked up Double Nickel's on the Dime and it is just awesome.
August 5, 200916 yr ELO I've been an ELO fan from the begining. I use ELO as a reference on all new gear.
August 5, 200916 yr I've been an ELO fan from the begining. I use ELO as a reference on all new gear. ELO is amazing! New for me: Dan La Sac vs Scroobius Pip
August 5, 200916 yr Necks: trio from Austrailia, minimalist jazz. Each CD is one track. Just got Aether and Drive By. These guys are completely new to me, and I'd be really interested in what others might recommend, and/or have heard. Gomez: been around awhile, but new to me. Listening to How We Operate right now, and I really like these guys. Open to suggestions to other CDs. TalkTalk: revisiting, starting with Spirit of Eden. Simple Acoustic Trio: Marcin Wasilewski (piano), Slawomir Kurkicwicz (bass) and Michal Miskiewicz (drums). Knew of some of the players through Tomasz Stanko's CDs and Manu Katch
August 5, 200916 yr Gomez: been around awhile, but new to me. Listening to How We Operate right now, and I really like these guys. Open to suggestions to other CDs. The new one is pretty good. Their first release -- from 1998 or so -- is also solid and it's interesting to see how they've evolved.
August 5, 200916 yr Gomez: been around awhile, but new to me. Listening to How We Operate right now, and I really like these guys. Open to suggestions to other CDs. Great band. They've really captured an eclectic cross-section of music lovers, if the two shows I've been to are any indication. My favorite by a mile is 2002's "In Our Gun". It's kind of a one-off from the rest of their oeuvre, but it's a solid album with lots of fun noises. Do give it a try.
August 5, 200916 yr TalkTalk: revisiting, starting with Spirit of Eden. One of my favourites -- also Laughing Stock, but I like their whole catalog.
