I listened to "Keasbey Nights" by Catch 22 today. I love how their improv sounds like a high school jazz band. It's so quaint.

I also really dug on "Bone Machine" by Tom Waits.

Today I was listening to the reissue of Grant Green's "Alive!" Very enjoyable album.

I'm getting into the Beatles again. It's amazing how as my musical knowledge increases, there's always something new to appreciate in their music.

Hah, this is an unbiased opinion:

While a good band, This Heat are little more than nothing compared to Can. Oh yeah, they aren't noise either.

I heard somebody singing guantanamera the today. I am listening to peete seeger now.

I hate Kings of Leon. Probably one of the only bands that get a reaction out of me. ( that I don't like)

What's that in your avatar? I can't make it out.

[I]Monster Movie[/I] - The Can.

I think it's a limited version or someones just made it up.

I've been listening to the Smiths and wallowing in self pity. Yeah!

Also been rockin some John Lennon and some Talking Heads.

dude! the wallflowers!

It's Bob Dylan's son, how bad* could it be?


*awesome.

the wallflowers are good on their albums, but majorly boring live.

Fall Out Boy - Grand Theft Autumn / Where Is Your Boy

I'm digging my MX Secret Santa mix-CD at the moment, which is totally awesome. It's got some Unicorns, Minus the Bear, Massive Attack, Decemberists, !!! and Xiu Xiu, plus so much more.

Great stuff.

I think the person who sent it may be a regular here, if they are then THAAAAANK YOOOOU!

MX Secret Santa?

Today I have been mostly digging Lauryn Hill and The Eagles.

Ja, Inside Me organised it at the end of last month in The Pit.

I've been into Prefuse 73 recently....can't believe I've only gotten into this just now...great stuff.

Tom Waits' Rain Dogs is dominating now...once this album grows on me...it'll become one of my favorites...I'm convinced of it.

Oh, and St. Germain is cool easy listening music...very recommended.

Yeah, my CD is awesome too. Much more 'indie' than I usually listen to but it's really cool. Some stuff I already knew (Incubus, The Roots) plus some great bands I never knew of (Stroke 9, Eve 6, And Christopher O'Riley's Radiohead covers).

I have an idea of who sent it but I don't want to say right now. :)

I've been diggin' some Black Uhuru, The Mars Volta and Agent Orange lately, among much other stuff.

I am quite interested in hearing Panda Bear's [I]Young Prayer[/I]. WRM, you're right about Bat You'll fly;)

I saw Animal Collective's 2CD album last weekend:eek:

Frank Sinatra- Strangers in the Night :cool:

My roommate's got good taste.

Mazzy Star - So Tonight That I Might See

Brilliant, brilliant album.

Also, Psychocandy is finally gracing my ears.

I've basically only listened to Talking Heads today. Such a loadblowingly good band. They might actually be on the way to being one of my favourite bands ever.

picked up a few...

Cocteau Twins - "Treasure"
XTC - "Skylarking"
Duran Duran - "Rio"
Roxy Music - "Country Life"

Oh nice, [I]Treasure[/I] is a great album. And of course, Duran Duran rule the world.

yeah, [i]Treasure[/i] has been very nice to me so far. I can easily see myself picking up more Cocteau Twins during my Christmas break...
