Quasi, "Field Studies." Good solid indie pop, with a bit of weird
synth noise, boy-girl harmonies, and cynical lyrics. 3.5 stars,
maybe 4 if it grows on me.

Definitely the kings of the "creepy cover version" genre..
Now playing: the Magnetic Fields - "Holiday"
I've been frustrated about not being able to get the new box set --
it sold out *far* faster than anyone anticipated. Now I can't even
find the seperate releases that accompanied the box. I'm told there'll
be a second printing soon, but am getting tired of waiting..

WDET-FM: a set of tunes by jazz bagpiper Rufus Harley.
Hey, I just checked Amazon.com and there is an import release of his
old album BAGPIPE BLUES out this summer... I need to look into that.

Babylon 5 "War Without End Part 1" soundtrack - Good instrumental music
including the entire Season 3 opening theme with the dialogue. The only
drawback is that 3 to 5 tracks under a single number (as in 1A, 1B, 1C, etc.)
instead of giving each track its own number. I don't know why they chose to
do that.

ritsu - voodoo
She plays electric violin with a band. I really like it.. kinda sounds
like basic blues, and at times it's hard to tell that she's playing the
violin and not guitar...

re #182: Anyone remember *index* markers in CD tracks?
The better models from among the early generations of CD players had
both "track" and "index" forward and reverse features (in addition to
the within-track seek functions..) "Indexes" were points within a track
that you might want to skip to -- I think they were originally envisioned
for classical music where you might have a long work be a single track
but where listeners might want to start with, say, the second movement..
Anyway, indexed tracks never caught on (I think that out of around 1200
CDs in my collection I only know of about three CDs that have indexes)
and the feature died out on nearly all CD players -- I'd be surprised if
you could still find a consumer- grade player with buttons on the front
for the index features, though with some brands (like my old Magnavox)
you could use older remotes to access the feature on the newer units
(even though there wasn't a button for it on the new one's front panel
*or* remote..) Must've used the same control circuitry..

My family's CD player will tell you what index number you're on, but has no
index skip buttons. None of our CDs have index numbers. Pity -- it sounds
like it would've been a useful feature.

np: John Kirkpatrick Band, WELCOME TO HELL. (As in "Welcome to Hell,
here's your accordion.") A great revival of the classic
English electric folk sound of the 1970s Albion Band -- no surprise,
since the band includes the Albions' old guitarist and drummer.
Kirkpatrick will be best known to readers here as an associate
of Richard Thompson.

Tom Waits, "Mule Variations". Ahhh, I've gotten past the learning curve on
this one. Tom Waits albums seem to be an acquired taste, and each one is an
acquired taste.
