28. Have you heard Brendan Benson's latest disc?
Falkner co-wrote most of the songs, produces, and plays most of the instruments on it, and apart from the weak lyrics, it's a minor masterpiece. Not as good as Benson's last album, "One Mississippi," (1996) but still pretty good by 2003's lower standards....

I've been searching for that record since I was 13 and obsessed with Zappa's Straight/Bizarre roster.....I've got one track on a Zappa comp, but I NEED the rest of that album!!! I don't wanto have to go over your head and talk to AL HEDGES about thius, but I will if I have to!


And kudos on the Wire. If Pink Flag is not in your collection, you don't have a collection.

39. Woody Guthrie, Jimmy Buffet
I just bought the WG CD because my daughter and I couldn't remember all the verses to "This Land is My Land."

BTW, there's a great song about Lindberg that could inspire a lot of discussion.

The Jimm Buffet CD fell behind my daughter's desk, and was recovered while I was looking for stuff to sell at my garage sale last week. Good CD. Haven't listened to it yet, it's just sitting there.

58. Have listened to these most recently
Evan And Jaron - self-titled (it's in the vein of great pop/rock like New Pornographers, Kay Hanley, Michelle Branch, Avril Lavigne, etc! Very overlooked CD.)

Abba - Gold (Abba heaven with all these songs!)

Kenny Chesney - When The Sun Goes Down (Bought this because there are some very good country lyrics here, even though the production is mostly standard modern Nashville production. I'd give this CD a B.)

Abra Moore - Strangest Places (has a new CD coming tomorrow, Everything Changed, that I will buy. I'm sure I'll like the new songs, but it's too bad that certain greats from the No Fear project are left out - like "First Date" and "Home.")

And always will, so get used to it. :-) I am open-minded towards music. There are obscure artists I love, and there are also mainstream artists with a flair for pop music. I love those pop artists as much as the Cat Powers. You won't just see the obscure artist of the day in my lists.

Haven't heard Poi Dog Pondering.

From the polls I posted before, some people may be afraid to list their choices, and there's no reason to be. On one poll, I saw a few people think MY taste is snobby, and I think ProfessorGAC had a good answer for that. :-)

78. The Aquabats...
I found an Aquabats DVD of live concerts and skits at x-mas and bought it for myself..uh, I MEAN I bought it for my 13 year old son, who had no idea who they were. He was resistant at first, but eventually came to appreciate the weirdness.

It's part of our duty as parents to expose our children to alternatives to the corporate c**p they hear on the radio!

80. been a SAHB fan
since the day my older brother put a brand-spanking new 8-track player in my mom's '73 Pontiac Catalina!
He introduced me to bands like SAHB, Uriah Heep, Jethro Tull, UFO, and even Be Bop Deluxe.

XTC has been a long fav of mine. Never got to see them live though. Back around '80 or '81 I was at an Echo and The Bunnymen show at a club in Connecticut. One of the first "big-name" British bands I ever saw. Anyway, I see the club has this band called
"The Police" booked the next month, and my friend says "yeah, I heard they're good" so we decide to buy tickets. The opening act was some bunch none of us had heard of... XTC.
Long story short, The gig was cancelled. Apparently Terry Chambers broke his leg a week prior to the show.

The early songs were sooo pop, harmless rollicking tunes. Part of the fun was trying to figure out just what in the hell Partridge or Moulding were singing about.

Best lines ever in ANY song (No Thugs in our House):
"The insect-headed worker-wife will hang her waspies on the line. Her husband burns his paper, sucks his pipe while studying their cushion-floor, his viscous poly-paste breath comes out, their
wall-paper world is shattered by his shout, A boy in blue is busy
banging out a headache on the kitchen door.

86. A LOT of Nick Cave...
"Let Love In", "Murder Ballads", "No More Shall We Part", "Tender Prey"...been on a bit of a Nick Cave kick lately, for some reason (re-reading "And the Ass Saw the Angel", too).

Also, Barry Adamson's "Oedipus Schmoedipus", Charles Mingus ("Mingus Ah Um"), Tom Waits ("Rain Dogs"), Miles Davis ("Kind of Blue") and Aphex Twin ("Selected Ambient Works Vol. 2").

101. I think he's one of the most underrated musicians, personally.
Or at least most unrecognised. He's a brilliantly talented multi-instrumentalist and composer...I think "Oedipus Schmoedipus" and "As Above, So Below" are the best of his solo work. And Mute released a best-of a few years back called "The Murky World of Barry Adamson", which has a few decent exclusive tracks.

Joni Mitchell - Ladies of the Canyon

Chuck Prophet - No Other Love (bought after hearing CP's performance of "Summertime Thing" on Austin City Limits, still waiting for rest of disc to grow on me...)

Frank Zappa - Jazz From Hell (My third of what will inevitably be numerous future Zappa purchases...)

-SM, currently listening to awful Vancouver radio, for reasons unknown...
