Afro Celt Sound System - Sound Magic.

Recommend this highly, followed by Release (wait, I think I like Release better), followed by "Pod" which is, by and large, remixes and extended versions. High energy fusion of African rhythms and celtic music.

I like that cover. Implication seems to be 'at my age I don't give a toss so I'm going to pour this cup of tea over that poncey plant and feel myself up at the same time'.

"Hollywood Bass Player," the latest single from Josh Rouse. The new album Country Mouse, City House comes out on July 31.

In the meantime, you can download this song here:

I was disappointed by Subtitulo after the heights of the previous 2. Pleasant enough, but nothing memorable enough compared to those. This single sounds like more pleasantness, but Josh is the kind that needs a few plays (maybe I didn't play Sub enough?).

I love the name of his side project with Spanish girlfriend (which I haven't heard about): 'She's Spanish, I'm American'!

A Bruce Springsteen show from the The Ghost Of Tom Joad tour. Awesome. Great anecdote at the end of The New Timer, check it out (or not): http://www.captainsdead.com/

That artwork looks to me like an American 50's print advertisement style, or as used for posterwork for 50's movies, attempting to depict an carefree idealized existence in the post-war boom.

A Windows Media Player 11 shuffle consisting of these albums thrown together in a folder:

So much good music coming up all the time!

I posted the image in another forum and asked if anyone could name the artists behind each album without looking it up. The record was a low 17. If anyone here can name them all I'd be really impressed (but not surprised

)

I've never liked WMP much in the past but the new library system is great.

Little Box and the Red Crosses.

The last 3 gaps are Arcade Fire, Iron & Wine and Paul Simon.

Led Zeppelin III was way before 1980, but I don't have a correct answer either.

Chrille · Post by **Chrille** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 6:55 pm

That is impressive, Mike (though I'm not surprised

)

III is a tad unfair. it's also known as 'Melt'

Mike Boom · Post by **Mike Boom** » Mon Jun 25, 2007 10:22 pm

ahh, didnt even notice the date. Peter Gabriel.

the Iron and Wine I wouldnt have gotten, should have known the Arcade Fire and Paul Simon

Currently been listening to the Jefferson Airplanes Surrealistic Pillow

Brilliant record - Today especially.

"Otis Wilbury" has quite a nice ring to it.

Brilliant Frank Zappa steeped in Jazz idiom.
