  1. I HIGHLY recommend Toots and the Maytals. Like them a lot more than any Marley. Esp. the two-fer of Funky Kingston/In the Dark -- the most soulful music this side of Otis Redding. In fact, the Redding comparisons are by no means out of bounds. What a voice!

  3. First Yuck and now these guys. I'm starting to feel like my parents. Damn.
  4. I can't believe that I forgot this one: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GHpqrSnXos
  5. The first Dylan album I was able to actually ENJOY, as opposed to just appreciating. Yeah. Great album.
  6. I disagree. "You Still Believe In Me" and "God Only Knows" But I do love "Don't Worry Baby".
  7. The musical sophistication on display is more than just "the sound" it's the whole content. Things like the swelling harmonies on "You Still Believe In Me". The sheer gorgeousness of "God Only Knows" (which is a particularly sophisticated composition, by the way). And, as a frothing Pet Sounds advocate, I still say that, even with those isolated examples of transcendental beauty, the whole is still greater than the sum of its parts. That said, there is no need for anyone to ever apologize for "not getting" something. You like what you like and you set the rest aside. I'm sure that there are
  8. That was the first thing that I thought of when I saw that Sharon Van Etten album cover, too.
  9. Of course it's unconstitutional.

States rights do NOT supercede an individual's civil rights, motherfuckers.
  10. Also, listening to current mixes for a solo/acoustic EP that I am making.
  11. Radiohead. I mean, I get it. I just don't get it.
  12. Here's the vid for my pick: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3VP_frpZK30
  13. Diggin' it. The first one took a little time to really get it's hooks into me, so I am expecting the same of this one, too. But, so far, I am really enjoying it. I think that it's gonna be a good one. Also, anthony: Agreed. Today:
  14. My big show right now: The Mentalist It's all about Jain; without him, it's just another crime show. But with him, it's a hoot!
