May 24, 20179 yr Art of Noise, In Visible Silence (deluxe edition) -- damn, this remaster sounds excellent ... the noise floor is practically gone.
May 25, 20179 yr Whatever you may think about Susan Boyle, her rendition of Wild Horses chokes me up every time.
May 25, 20179 yr Well not being fond of the Stones, it was pretty easy for me to give her a fair shake -- yeah, that's pretty...pretty. It has a Tori Amos-ish vibe to it, if you're not familiar with her. Although I'd be surprised if anyone could make "Shattered" listenable. Yes, that's a challenge, set it out there. And Silvertone is such a great album. I remember being frustrated for the longest time until that came out on CD. Going on a Chris Issak binge nao...(Silvertone, second album, Heart Shaped World, San Francisco Days, etc.)
May 26, 20179 yr this is by far the best of Bill Evans I have ever heard...if you can find this at a decent price don't pause and just grab it!
May 26, 20179 yr He's a redneck. He's a racist. In no way do I condone the racial slurs in this song, but if this song doesn't paint a picture of the deep South in the mid 20th century, nothin' does. Edited May 26, 20179 yr by swt61
May 28, 20179 yr Beatles Sgt Pepper 2014 mono Holy shit did they do a good job on this reissue. Truly is like listening to this for the first time.
May 28, 20179 yr I have the original mono 1967 first pressing. Bought new when I was but a pre-pubescent lad.
May 28, 20179 yr Max Richter, Sleep (the full 8-hour version, made 9 by tacking on "from Sleep" to the playlist) -- this is the most beautiful and most tranquil music I've ever heard. I've heard new age music described as music "...with all the evil taken out of it." Well, I don't like it when they take all the evil out of it (except for medicinal purposes -- e.g., Steven Halpern's music), then you get static music like Brian Eno's ambient works. In this case, they left just enough in.

May 30, 20179 yr I think Closer is even more depressing. Especially Decades......even the keyboard "solo" is depressing...... "We knocked on the door of Hell's darker chamber. Pushed to the limits, we dragged ourselves in...."
