I usually go with vinyl, CD, or iPod when I'm jogging. Regardless of the format I tend to play the records all the way through.

Dress Sexy at My Funeral is pretty fantastic too.

Would love to try one out, not sure if any of my local stores are gonna bring this one in though. Hope this one doesn't have tuning issues, I've found SGs to be pretty bad with that generally.

The Beatles The Kinks The Zombies The Rolling Stones The Who David Bowie T.Rex Small Faces/Faces (a bit of a cheat here) Black Sabbath The Move 10 ain't enough so a few more... Nick Drake Nick Lowe Elton John Badfinger The Action Radiohead The Smiths Joe Meek The Creation XTC and if we're doing Irish/Scotish/Welsh: Van Morisson Thin Lizzy Belle and Sebastian Super Furry Animals

Right now the only thing I have bought tickets for is: The Magnetic Fields - March 30th

Just finished the Ace Frehley book. Haven't been a KISS fan since the early '80s but couldn't resist grabbing this when I saw it at the library.

Thanks for posting that Sarah. Looks like this was done the same day as the ACL peformance.

That's some grade A camp with a big dollop of soulless cheese right there.

Funnily enough I was looking up just the other day what happened to Miki ( indeed) and the other surviving Lush members. Good band, too bad they didn't last too long.

Yeah, definitely sounds like a Coral on that one.

Yeah, what's listed so far doesn't spark any interest for me either. The T.Rex release is cool, but I already have that record on vinyl and CD. Not sure I'm gonna spring for another edition.

Jimmy Cliff did some stuff that would probably appeal to the not really big on reggae crowd. It's hard not to like "The Harder They Come" soundtrack.

I'm guessing Neil probably meant that the sampling rate would be 20 times better than the current rate for CDs/FLACs which is between 44.1 kHz and 92 kHz. Of course there are better audio formats out there already such as SACD (sampling rate of 2822.4 kHz) but hardly anyone buys those, and there isn't a wide selection of discs available in the format. It's mostly audiophiles that care about this stuff, most people these days seem content with substandard MP3s so I'm not sure how many would embrace a better audio format.

Yeah, love Fully Qualified Survivor too, such a great record. I just picked up the Rainmaker reissue yesterday, but after one listen I can say I'm quite impressed. Chapman's guitar playing on this is quite superb and the songwriting is topnotch. This one's a more straightforward folk/folk-rock record and not quite as adventurous as FQS, but still very highly recommended. I'm pretty sure this one's gonna be getting a lot of spins in the coming weeks.

Damn, that sucks. Watched a doc on Soul Train the other month, pretty interesting story.

Michael Chapman - Rainmaker

Ditto on that. I'm hoping the cheesy sounding keyboards that have plagued some of his recent records are nowhere to be seen on this one.
