(gee, it's been so long since I've actually listened to music while
conferencing that I'd forgotten what it was like.)
(in play: a Bone Thugs-N-Harmony mix tape that I put together. specific
song is "Dayz Of Our Livez.")

Radiohead - "The Bends"
I've owned this album since shortly after it came out but never really got
into it. I dug it up and dusted it off in the great CD reorginization and
have since reached the conclusion that it's better than I originally gave it
credit for being though I still think it could've stood to have a couple
songs left off.. Not brilliant, but good enough..

(( just a note to Mike that I did get his former copy of the
Martha and the Muffins CD from Encore... ))
Tarnation, a tape I made of the best songs from their two albums.

Well, I finally got around to buying the Labyrinth soundtrack, so that's
what's been living in my cd player recently. :) Great stuff.

John Kirkpatrick, WELCOME TO HELL; the title track, of course, is a
song about accordions...

New Kristen Hersh "Strange Angels," I've been waiting for her to do another
solo album for 3 years. So far it seems pretty fine, but it's going to
be hard to match her last effort "Hips & Makers."

The sound of my brother's cat climbing the screen window. She made it almost
to the top this time before taking a fairly dramatic song.

Wha...I don't know how the last word of 434 wound up as 'song'...it should
have been 'fall'.

Pizzicato Five, "Happy End of the World".
Heavily recommended by a friend I was in a music store with. This is like
a Japanese lounge music version of Beck, many styles crammed into each song.

The Beau Hunks Sextet, "Celebration on the Planet Mars A Tribute to Raymond
Scott".
Yes! I had a good day at Flat, Black, and Circular in East Lansing yesterday.
This is the same group that did the Little Rascals music CD. As you may know,
Raymond Scott did a series of unique jazz compositions back in the late
1930's. These are much better known as some of the background music used in
classic Warner Bros. (Bugs Bunny, etc) cartoons. The classic example is the
composition "The Powerhouse", which was used in cartoons with factories and
assembly lines.

Got a bunch of sampler CDs today, and I've been listening to
the radio this afternoon. Well, it started with "Folks like Us" and
doing the laundry. Might be interesting to tune into "Mountain Stage"
in a few minutes (93.9fm in recent hours).

Not listening o it as I type, but spent most of the evening earlier
listening to Opera Grand Rapids' production of Strauss's "Salome".
As Ken and Leslie had warned, it's an especially creepy opera.
Moderately enjoyable but either I'm getting jaded or OGR's productions
have gone downhill in the last year and a half or so..

Yma Sumac, "Voice of the Xtabay". There was a stack of old records on a
"free" table at the Mnet benefit breakfast, and this was in there. A very
interesting relic from the 50's or 60's, a 33 1/3 ten-inch that purports to
be genuine Inca music by a rare, gifted native singer. Inside there are lush,
B-movie orchestra arrangments backing this singer's 4 octave voice doing
rather European opera-sounding things. Cool arrangements! Mellow music!
On the way home later in the day, I showed it to my friends at Boss Guitar,
and got more info. Try spelling the singer's name backwards... ;)
I'm taping this stuff for the car even as I speak. :)

Hey that Yma Sumac is a collectors item you know, those records are hard
to find and in demand from people who know about her. I remember hearing
her records back when I was in school at Oberlin. You scored Scott... :-)
