Massive Attack -- "Blue Lines"
the proto trip-hop album, it's much easier to see the relationship
between "hip-hop" and "trip-hop" on this album than it is on later
releases.. an interesting mix of hip-hop, dub, and a lot of other
stuff. I prefer the later stuff but this one's got some interesting
things on it.. "Safe From Harm" and "Unfinished Sympathy" foreshadow
their later sound and "Five Man Army" develops in an interesting way
from fairly straightforward toasting/rapping into an echo of Lee Perry's
classic dub track "Satan Dub"

re:163 (sorry, old stuff, but I haven't been around in a while) No, "Battle
of Epping Forest," which describes a territory battle between a couple of
street gangs, was on Genesis's album "Selling England by the Pound," published
(I think) in 1974, at the height of Peter Gabrial's era of band leadership,
back when Phil Collin's just did drums and back-up vocals. Of course, Phil
has split from Genesis too, and they have since found a new vocalist, but I
doubt their ability to regain the popularity they used to have.

Flashback show on WUPX.)

That's interesting, carson, considering that I just popped my copy of
"Billboard Top Hits 1984," and I'm now listening to (you guessed it!)
Yes doing "Owner Of A Lonely Heart," too.

"A Folksinger's Christmas." Wonderful CD with 14 selections from Joan Baez,
Odetta, the Weavers, Erik Darling, and Jackie Washington. All cuts were
recorded between 1959 and 1970.

re #201: That's interesting-- I hadn't heard Phil finally left Genesis. I
thought that he was balancing the band and his solo work together-- he's done
that for quite a number of years, but, well..
any press release as to why he left now and not earlier?

Orgy's version of "Blue Monday" (originally by New Order). I LOVE
this, and I'm usually not one for covers. =)

A medley of old cheezy songs covered by barenaked ladies, titled
barenaked rap. They do this type of stuff at their concerts.. they just
finished up with that suzanne vega song that they put the beat to around
90-91... someone's diner, maybe? now it's that song "joy, and pain,
sunshine and rain" I love it. It's such utter cheeze.

re 214: yeah, that album would rule:) but it's just a bunch of
downloaded MP3's... I have 80-some... wow, lots. (Barenaked Ladies MP3's
alone).
right now, Jenny Jones is on in the backround, I hardly call two people
yelling at each other music.

They don't, but his "I'm the happiest kitty in the world purr"
sounds like a pigeon's warble. =)

Just finished: Desmond Dekker -- "The Best and the Rest of"
(one of the weaker entries in what I am prepared to
assert is Michigan's largest private collection of
Desmond Dekker "greatest hits" CDs.. :-)
Next up: Lush -- "Gala"
