  Ride -- "Carnival of Light"

  (guitar-oriented British shoegazer band decides they want to be the Byrds
   when they grow up and records a loving tribute to their favorite sixties
   sound, pissing off large parts of their fan base in the process..  well
   *I* think it's a great album..)

"Summer Of Fair Weather," from the video _Saturday's Warrior_, originally a
BYU production of the mid 70's.  (Julie's watching movies.)

(something by Eric Clapton. [my knowledge of 70's rock is spotty at best.])

The remains of my Mojave 3 CD, or at least the parts that could be
salvaged to CD-R after my housemate's CD-changer scrathed it.  Most
of it was recoverable but there're a couple of tracks that have a
nasty, speaker-rending burst of raw digital noise in the middle.

I guess my next move is to try polishing out the scratch on the original
but it's a pretty big gouge.  The whole incident has made me realize
how many hard-to-replace CDs I have that I really should be backing up..

"Come to my Window," Melissa Etheridge. Something that sounds nice
and raging...

Ack. I can't stand Melissa Etheridge's music.

Mike, liquid optical polish is the key.  Go to an optometrist.

   Oohh--can you be more specific, Christopher?  Do you know the
chemical by any chance?

Tony MacManus, "Pourquoi Quebec."  Scottish folk guitarist; the disk 
is part of a severely truncated haul from a truncated holiday trip.

RE#247 -- Sorry I can't.  It's been years since I've seen the stuff, but it
came in at least two "grits" a "coarse" and a "fine."  It's whatever
eye doctors use on plastic lenses.  I'm going to pick up my glasses
later today, and I'll try and ask what their grinding guy uses.

   I've always suspected that there was some chemical that could
be used to polish poly-carbonate plastic, somehow.
   If you find out, let us know here.

Will do.  The woman at the optometrist was going to leave a note for
their lab tech and the doctor so I may get a call about it.

The Dear Janes, NO SKIN.  Two women singers, pop-rock with faint folk 
influence, lots of harmonies and good melodies.  At their best, reminiscent
of the Tansads.  Twila would like this, I have to remember to send it 
her way.

"Just You" by Sonny & Cher

The Walkabouts, SEE BEAUTIFUL RATTLESNAKE GARDENS.  Yee gods, this album
is 12 years old already!  Seattle band whose folk-rooted guitar rock
with good singing and first-rank melodies got swamped in the 
grunge tidal wave.  They moved their career to Europe, but they also 
lost their melodic gifts for quite a few years.
 
However, this album, and its followup CATARACT, remain high on my 
all time favorite rock album list.
