The National -- Alligator

 

Came across this in my list, copied and brought to work.  Remember the days....good times....good times.....

 

I feel like a twelve year old posting all this stuff, but whatever.

Try and listen to "Ant Rap" three times in a row, I dare you!

Heck, it was tough to get through some of the album, never mind that video!  This stuff was so campy crap fun in the day, though!

I have a question to the foobar2000 users -- is there a best way that one can group recordings?  For example, I have several recordings from the Cryo Chamber label, and I'm usually in the mood to listen to them as a group or everything else.  Well, except 36 (not a Cryo Chamber artist) fits well with that. 

Ditto Fax, except that's a different grouping.

I also have a bunch of Paulstretched recordings.  Again, I'm either in the mood for all Paulstretched recordings, or I'm not.

I mean, the obvious way is playlists -- yes?  Every time I get a new Cryo Chamber or Fax album, just add it to the appropriate playlist, neh?

But I was thinking it'd be great if it was in the album list in groups.  Can I create off-grid genres, and then sort by genre?  I'll try it.

Am I the last one on earth to see this?

Jaco, Metheny, Don Alias, Michael Brecker

Only if you haven't watched it yet.

(Thanks.)

Gorguts - Obscura

one of the stranger  metal albums, i'd say.

like a slightly slower, more dissonant Atheist.

Red Hot Chili Peppers - Blood Sugar Sex Magik

One of those albums you don't listen to for years, then on revisit you're re-addicted.

Pink Floyd -- Meddle

It just happened to be a "related" video to something I watched, and I watched a pretty cool duet with Pink and Linda Perry doing "What's Up"

Then I proceeded to watch over a dozen covers of people worldwide doing that (lots of XXX Has Talent type shows), and then about 5 or 6 versions of people singing "Me And Bobby McGee" by Janis Joplin.

FWIW, Pink does both those songs REAL well!

Meddle?

Me:  iamthemorning - From the House of Arts live -- fantastic, caught the stream of this, but her Russian between song banter was too fast for me, wish I could slow her down or keep up, myself.

So I guess now that Bowie has passed on, Iggy figures we need someone to channel him? Anyway, I like it.

My sister (a huge Bowie fan) actually posted "It's up to you now, Iggy", meaning the closest thing we have to a replacement.

Steven Wilson live at Wiltern Theater, LA, 13-06-2015 -- so far this seems to be a verbatim performance to the one I saw last year, including the between-song banter.

this band is all over the place.  every album is different.

Giant Kitty - This Stupid Stuff

(my grad student's band's new album - it's pretty fun if you like female fronted post punk/rock music and I approve of anyone doing a Man Size cover)
