Anyone remember the Kids In The Hall? Remember Bruce McCullough stating that "Jazz was musical barf"? Love that line....love physicsgenius's as well....but have to disagree on all accounts.

Beck - Golden Age
(Oct 19, 2005 - 14:31) | Is this brilliant or what? This is what "new country" could have become... Oh well, we will keep him for ourselves.

Live - Lightning Crashes
(Oct 14, 2005 - 15:14) | Never got this band...the more I hear it this song, the more I hate it....it blows goats!

Beethoven - Symphony No.5 - Allegro Con Brio
(Oct 13, 2005 - 12:45) | Very cool.
Here's a silly question, if Beethoven were born today, which artist would he most resemble? Not physically, but artistically? Okay, so I'm a little bored at work....

Joe Strummer & The Mescaleros - Mondo Bongo
(Oct 12, 2005 - 09:05) | What's wrong with people who can't handle a song that is 5 minutes long? Do we really all have such short attention spans?
Maybe that is why Classical is dead, no one can sit through a symphony anymore. Sure this song is on the long side, but it does not do so unnecessarily.

Aromabar - Velvet Nights
(Oct 12, 2005 - 08:15) | Yes, drumming has quite a bit of syncopation. Man or machine...it's good drumming.
|
Miss Chaos - Mama Cries
(Oct 11, 2005 - 14:52) | This song is good once in a while...but after repeated listenings it gets tiresome. There is not a whole lot of substance here.
|
Steely Dan - Haitian Divorce
(Oct 11, 2005 - 10:43) | Come on, does anyone really like Steely Dan? I try with every track to find something good.....I can't. Maybe I can't detect their subtle jazz structure or thier layered what-not, but I just don't get it.

Depeche Mode - Precious
(Oct 06, 2005 - 08:41) | I too have to admit I am an old fan. I saw a live DVD from several years ago and it had me going. Once a DM fan always a DM fan....even if you don't come out and say it.

The Tea Party - Winter Solstice
(Sep 30, 2005 - 14:10) | I was really trying to place this song, before having to go to the Playlist. Have not heard it in a dog's age...and I have the CD!

Natalie Merchant - Ophelia (live)
(Sep 21, 2005 - 11:58) | OK, this is not the best song on this album, but there are some gems on it. Whether you like her singing or not, the recording quality on this "live" album is remarkable. Someone at the mixing board knew what they were doing. Track 2 really proves this. Saw her perform at the Edmonton Folk Festival last year and the sound was just as good....that in an open air natural amphitheatre. I happen to enjoy her singing style, but will admit I would not want to listen to her all day.
