Waiting for the new NIN CD to be released. Other then that there really hasn't been much of any really good Rock, Alt, Ind or Metal put out in a long time.

I'm having withdrawls, I think I need to go to OzzFest this year.

Nothing new in my collection since I spend most of my music time changing stations. I haven't found much music I feel a need to purchase. May be because I listen to a WIDE variety of music depending on the activity. If I'm writing at work it's classical. If I'm actually working it's rock, new and classic. If I'm woking on my Scout or out dancing it's country. Drinking on Sunday afternoon it's Reggae. Not much music I don't like, rap of course isn't even fit to be called poetry in my book. Hope I don't offend anyone... Wink  I have started recording my sons CD's though. Some of the new stuff ain't half bad!

Pink Floyd...

Only tape in the truck at the moment. *grin*

Have to find another Allman Bros, Bob Seger, and ZZ Top tape for the truck...Hey I am old, drive an old truck with a cassette deck.

One thing for sure - cassettes take up less room than the 8 tracks did. *smirk*

I haven't made any new purchases lately, but since watching a lot of metal retrospectives on VH1 this week I pulled out "Use Your Illusion I&II" by Guns N' Roses tonight.  I stood in line at midnight to buy that one.  Still good.

I work nights, alone, and I've been streaming WOXY, the very first "Alternative" Rock station.  I grew up on the fringe of it's broadcast range.  New stuff I like are The Kills, MIA, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, and Lucinda Williams.  And I can't wait to hear all of "Has Been", William Shatner's newest album.   I'm LMAO from what I've heard so far.

I'm a sucker for a well-played guitar (Clapton, Santana, Buddy Guy, Joe Walsh, etc) or a really good singing voice (Jewel, Sarah Maclachlan, Leann Rimes, etc), not that yodeling that seems to pass for vocals lately.

It's a fairly representative sample, actually.

Got a taste for Little Feat the other day.  Waiting for Columbus CD.  Been listening to "Willin'" a bit.  Also cable had "The Last Waltz" (the movie) by The Band on the other night.  Hooked up swmbo's Wave Machine to the TV and cranked it up to about 99.  I played the best air guitar in years that night.  Yah mamma, I still got it!

PS:  Thanks Barbara, I just put in the Little Feat CD again and am listening right now to "Fatman in the Bathtub"  Ahhhhhh  "Oh Atlanta" just started.  See later.

If there really was intelligent life on other planets, we'd be sending them foreign aid.

Conservatives see George Orwell's "1984" as a cautionary tale.  Progressives view it as a "how to" manual.

My wife often says to me, "You are evil and must be destroyed." She may be right.

Liberals believe one should never let reason, logic and facts get in the way of a good emotional argument.

Hell if I know what it is I'm listening to...

But it's XM radio, and it's pretty darned good.  I have to push the little display button to get the name of the group and the song.  Wink

I've really gotten hooked on this band Wovenhand lately as well as another band with the same main guy, 16 Horsepower.  Both feature David Eugene Edwards and I've heard their style called "Appalachian gothic" or "southern gothic."  All I know is I'm loving it...it's incredible music with great lyrics as well.  Kind of dark acoustic folk with bluegrass, celtic and other americana influences.  16 horsepower has more overt rock influences  and wovenhand is mostly straight acoustic.

Here's a couple of (legal) free mp3 from Wovenhand:
Sparrow Falls
White Bird

For a 16 Horsepower song go to this page and stream or download:
16 Horsepower at Epitonic.com
and if you have a cdnow/amazon account you can download a free mp3 from them here as well.  

I'm also really digging what I'm hearing of this Austin band called The Murder Mystery but I can't track down any CDs.  Apparently they only sell them at shows.  Here are a couple of mp3s:

Tom Waits fans might appreciate this first one, Paint the Town
The Reason Why

I've also been digging some stuff from this group The Shivers but they're kind of hit or miss:
Beauty

Of course I always dig Tom Waits, Soul Junk, Medeski Martin and Wood, King Crimson, etc...

I really do listen to a large variety of music but lately I've been on this kind of melancholy acoustic type thing.

Well, the most recent thing I've heard that made me prick up my ears is Shooter Jennings, son of Waylon Jennings. He looks and sounds just like his dad did, early on. It's actually a little creepy.

Oh also I just ordered The Eels - "Shootenanny!"  I love what h'e's been doing on his last couple of albums.  Especially "Souljacker"...excellent CD.  I made sure to play "Fresh Feeling" off that album at my wedding reception.

Been listening to a lot of Robert Earl Keen lately.  Just bought his Live in Austin cd but I've pulled everything else off of the shelf and put it in the truck so I've been listening to all of them.

I'm eagerly awaithing the new Audioslave album; really like the last one and I hope the new one is as good.  Haven't bought anything new in quite a while.  As of late I've been going through some old Stone Temple Pilots, Soundgarden, Alice In Chains, etc. and burning compilations of my favorite songs to CD & MP3.
