Yeah, they didn't strike me as terribly Dave Matthews-esque, except that the
Dave Matthews Band is the only place you're gonna hear a fiddle on rock radio.

On "rock" radio? I suppose you might get Jefferson Airplane/Starship on
the oldies station, or maybe The Corrs. What else did you have in mind,
happyboy?

He (almost) has a point, though -- I had to choose my adjective carefully so
as to rule out country, jazz, folk, bluegrass, etc. My point was that, apart
from the fiddle, the music on the album sounded entirely like mainstream
(non-country, non-fusion, un-folk-influenced) rock, while Dave Matthews Band
has a bit more of a distinctive (fusion-ish, folk-influenced) sound.

Alison Moyet, "Falling" (I've been listening to Ms. Moyet all morning, and
I'm pleased to find so many songs about love: "Love Resurrection," "Is This
Love?" "Love Letters," "Weak in the Presence of Beauty," and others. (don't
mind me, I'm in a bouncy Valentine's Day mood....)

Better watch it man, or I'll play the Anti-Valentine mix:
Love Stinks, J.Giles Band
Love Kills, Def Leppard
I Love You, Sarah McLaughlan
You give love a bad name, Bon Jovi
<giggles and wishes everyone a Happy Valentine's Day>

Happyboy: I dunno, do "All You Need Is Love" and "Got To Get You
Into My Life" make the Beatles a brass band? You're naming bands
which have used an occasional violin part as a special effect.
NP: Hedningarna, "Tra."

Does Ashley MacIssac get played on any rock station not subject to
Canadian Content rules?

Steely Dan, "Two Against Nature".
This album is definitely growing on me.

Now playing: Mojave 3 - "Out of Tune" After a long period of dislike,
I'm re-evaluating this one. Seems much better than when I first heard it,
though I still prefer their first album "Ask Me Tomorrow."

Happyboy knows that, ashke. But he has trouble showing his true feelings,
and his desperate, doomed infatuation with Babra is at the core of it.
Just remember whenever you see one of his obnoxious postings that he's really
trying to act out from a core of loneliness and fear.

I find it ironic that both people defending Barbra Streisand misspelled her
first name. Although I assume Scott's was a typo.
While I harbor no hostile feelings toward Ms. Streisand, I must respectfully
disagree with Ashke on the aesthetic quality of her singing.

Truly? I like her rendition of "Memory" the best, I like "Evergreen", "you
don't bring me flowers" and many others. I think on the whole she is a great
singer.

Now playing:
King Crimson -- "Lizard"
Over the years, many of their albums have competed in my opinions
for the title of "favorite King Crimson album" but I think that
"Lizard" will remain the long-term winner for me, though that's an
opinion I don't expect any other Crimson fan to agree with..
"Lizard" is one of a small group of albums (less than 20, surely)
that I didn't like at first, in fact couldn't stand for months after
buying it. Then one day it was like someone filled in the rest of the
music I wasn't hearing and in no time at all it went from despised and
regretted impulse purchase to long-lasting favorite.

(For me, "Babra" isn't a typo; it's a dialect)
