the Folk Implosion -- "One Part Lullaby"
rhythm-heavy indie rock from duo Lou Barlow (of Sebadoh) and John Davis (of ?)
their second album, afaik, and not the one which contains their surprise hit
"Natural One" (which is just fine by me..) I remember passing it over when
it first came out because I'd just bought a bunch of CDs and didn't want to
take a gamble on what was to me an unknown quantity.
I finally bought it about a week ago because (a) I was trying to use up the
tail end of a Best Buy gift certificate that some friends had given me, and
(b) whereas most new CDs were priced at around $15-16, for some reason this
one was only $10, which very neatly used up the remaining gift credit.
Without that fortunate coincidence I would almost certainly have passed it
over yet again and would never have made my favorite record purchase of the
year to date..

Is the music that the Xymox folks released on 4AD as "Clan of Xymox"
significantly different from the stuff that was later released on Mercury
as "Xymox"? I kindof liked some of the stuff off of a cheap used copy
of "Phoenix" (by Xymox) that I picked up years ago but have always
wondered whether their 4AD recordings sound more like, well, a 4AD band..
now playing:
R.E.M. -- Life's Rich Pageant
it was the first R.E.M. album I bought (followed rapidly by "Murmur")
and is still my favorite..

I've never noticed a difference. I think it's just in the name. There's My
Life with the Thrill Kill Kult and Thrill Kill Kult, but the music never
changes...same with Xymox. =) Great band.

Supernatural CD by Santana. Wish I brought the remote over to
skip "Smooth". I'm tired of that tune.

Okay, can't keep up the typing: Allan Sherman "Hello Mudduh,
Hello Fadduh!". (also checking spelling after bringing the disks
over to the computer). Let's see what's next: ....track changing....

Will Oldham, "Guarapero: Lost Blues 2." Oldham has the most cracked,
sorrowful, pain-filled voice in the world.

The Grammy 2000 CDs. The Rap CD is on now. I wonder what else
Werid Al or The Great Luke Ski will parody from these tracks.

The Round Sound vol1 -- A collection of recordings of aircraft with radial
engines. It's not music, but it's a sweet sound to my ears.

Sally Timms -- "Cowboy Sally's Twilight Laments for Lost Buckaroos"
this album has grown on me and I've listened to it considerably more
than I first thought I would. it's quite short (35 minutes including
two throwaway lead-in/lead-out tracks, even shorter when I skip the
couple of songs that still irritate me) but she has such a gorgeous voice..

Yo La Tengo -- "And Then Nothing Turned Itself Inside Out"
I'm starting to really like this one. It's very, very laid back..
I love the song "Tears Are In Your Eyes"..
