Pink would seem more appropriate for a Cockburn CD..

pink? is there a good reason, or are you diswsing him?
green because it's a Rykodisc CD, and we were caught up on that for a while
in Jeopardy...

well, yes, I suppose he IS a touch communist-sympathetic ...
Nothing now, but was listening to Prick, an odd piece I got used for $1 only
to discover that Trent Reznor engineered and Chris Vrenna assisted
engineering. It's got the mildest flavor of NIN, but is fairly far afield from
it. (Prick being a fellow named Kevin McMahon, apparently.)

Thomas Dolby, "The Flat Earth", this time on CD! It's at Borders, for only
$11.99, as is "The Golden Age of Wireless".
OK, I'll admit "Mulu the Rain Forest" is kinda lame. But it's more than made
up for by either the title track and/or "Screen Kiss".

Crystal Method "Busy Child" This is from the MTV Amp compilation. The whole
CD is a good mix of techno music.

Bruce Cockburn's politics? Heh. You might take a listen to Dick Gaughan
(banned from the USA during the Reagan & Bush administrations for
being a Communist Party member), Leon Rosselson, or Attila the Stockbroker.
Sally Barker, "Passion and the Countess." Most recent solo album from the
original Poozies' vocalist. Unfortunately on her own she tends to goop
up the arrangments; the Poozies always keep things clean and simple.

I don't object to him being left-leaning, I object to him being so
predictable and trite about it. I suspect I'd prefer the other artists
you mention..

You object, perhaps, to lyrics like "If I had a rocket launcher, some son of
a bitch would die" in the midst of an anti-violence song, perhaps?
Actually, Cockburns last few albums (including Breakfast in New Orleans...)
have been generally not political, but just lots of artsy, existentialist
stuff. Still trite, but prettier. =}

Right now listening to James Taylor's Fire and Rain. Someone in an IRC
room is typing the lyrics to American Pie so I may have to put that MP3
on.

Folque, "Folque." 1970s-era Dutch band cloning early Fairport and Steeleye
Span, in some cases right down to lifting the songs and arrangements,
like "Twa Corbies." Commended to Twila and David Bratman.
I think there are two or three more CDs by this band which have been
reissued, I'll have to scoop them up.

A series of CDs called The MOJO machine turns you on. A variety
of artists. I take it these where attached to a British music magazine.
