Nice. I heard a song by them on the radio recently, which was a first in a long time. Its amazing how limited the playlist is on classic rock radio stations when they have so much material to choose from.

Just might be our first ever G Lightfoot post.

Love him and had the pleasure of serving him and his wife a private dinner this past summer.

a little St Germain this morning

... I never really listened to Lightfoot until I heard him on a pair of Klipschorn Corner floor standing speakers, Crown tube Amp and Continuum Caliburn turntable.

There's something about floor standing speakers. They may be old school but I'll be kicking and screaming if my KEF q900s ever get replaced with wussie wall mount speakers.
Personally, I think they complement each other well.

When she was in her prime, 4 figures was really quite a lot of money.

Great album. Listen to the Lion is one of my favorite songs of Van.

Finally got one of these tablet thingies, which made me search for some old CD's to convert into mp3's.
Found some old synthie stuff i've not listened to for ages:
Album: Continents , from a synthie/new-age band called Peru

excellent!

Beethoven middle period sonatas.

The Cramps Off The Bone CD.

Muffled garbage. It looks like one of my Dynaudio's blew a crossover.

A recent recording of Haydn's "The Creation" by Martin Pearlman and the Boston Baroque.

Continuing to work my way through my new Beethoven sonata set. It's pretty good. I wish I could play.

Molly Ringwald (Yeah, 16 Candles Molly Ringwald) is releasing her first jazz album next month. I plan to give that a spin. She is playing in Seattle next month also, but I'll be out of town.

Great record. Making Plans for Nigel, along with Once in a Lifetime by the Talking Heads, is a song that really caught my attention when I started university. Such a different sound from what I grew up listening to as a spotty faced, long hair kid.

Complicated Game I think I'll give it a spin tonight after work.

Dave Grisman, dawgnation

Too much Neil Young. Now I'm depressed. And really pissed off at Nixon.

Nope. Missed Ford and Carter, too. (Well, technically, I think I was alive for a few months of Carter, don't remember much of it, though ...)


Pretty pissed off at Atila the Hunn, too. He just isn't referenced in "Ohio" quite as often.

Nothing good to remember about Jimmy. Now that said, when I retire I would love to see those 16% jumbo CD's return like when Jimmy and his brother Billy were in charge.

Thanks for the heads up on them. I had never heard of them before, but I am enjoying 11:11 as I type.

Jason White / Jason White & The Dying Breed / The Janglers

Mostly from a bootleg my friend made at The Last Drop in 1996. His studio albums later on do him no justice. And, The Janglers were too sloppy / young. But, MAN, how did he never make it?...

Felt like going classic Paul Van Dyk tonight... "Out There And Back" from 2000. Still an outstanding Progressive Trance album. One of the best ever released.

The Bridge: A Tribute to Neil Young

Get Ready (2002)
- New Order
* Possibly the best album ever put out by New Order. I cannot believe how much I love this album still after 12 years.

Good for you. I am a bit out of practice myself. I should get some inspiration and scrape away some scales this weekend.

Am I the only one to note that Alvin Lee passed? I managed to see this guy at a small club, early '90's, I was about 3 rows deep...amazing guitarist.

I'll give up opera before that, however she'll GO to an opera, just isn't as much into listening in the car or hanging around the house. Usually when I listen it's during "me time" when I'm driving a long distance or relaxing, so I'm OK with it.
