"Court and Spark" is one of the Greatest Albums of the 70s.

Perhaps I'll check it out, then.. Although I have to say that
my personal list of "Greatest Albums of the 70s" tends to look
absolutely nothing like the generally propounded version..
I will confess to owning a copy of "Rumours", but that's about
as far as it goes.. ;-)

In the absence of affordable CD "one-time" playback, maybe we could have some
sort of trading party so people could check out stuff they don't want to buy
outright (without knowing if they like it).

I loan CDs out all the time. Sometimes they even come back.
However, all my Joni Mitchell albums are on vinyl.

I listened to Billy Mumy's "In The Current" CD today at work.
A 1999 project.

The Monks, "5 Upstart Americans" (mid-60's angry garage rock, mainly
consisting of the same 2 chords played over and over. Brilliant!)

Talking Heads, "Sand in the Vaseline" After seeing Stop Making Sense, I'm
listening to a lot of Talking Heads again.

Talking Heads, "Stop Making Sense," the 1984 release, which just happens to be
the oldest CD in my collection.

Re #250: Ken, are there different versions of "Stop Making Sense"? Do any of
them have the entire concert in order on it?

There are now two different CD releases of "Stop Making Sense".
The older release omits several songs present in the theatrical release
of the film. The newer release restores those songs, but still omits
several songs that were cut from the film but present in the video version.
None of the versions has "the entire concert" -- there wasn't exactly
an "entire concert".. The band played (I think) four shows in L.A.
during the Speaking in Tongues tour and Demme and his crew edited pieces
of several of them together for the film "Stop Making Sense".

There was a middle edition, which could be identified by the top plastic
strip printed as "Stop Making Sense -- 2nd ed." I never got a clear
explanation of what was different about this "second edition" and
I never bought one.

The vinyl version had all sorts of neat stuff enclosed.
Now playing: Nine Inch Nails, "The Fragile". It'll probably be a few
listenings before I have any real opinion, since I don't tend to listen very
carefully these days.

Sin E', "It's About Time." Umm, for want of a better term I might
call them "progressive Irish folk..." their new album is on
Paddy Maloney's boutique label Wicklow (distributed by BMG)
so it *should* be getting American distribution.

Cry of Love, "Hand Me Down". The sort of thing you'd hear too much of on
"classic rock" stations, but well-done. And there's a song on the same album
about how bad the weather in Michigan is, so how can you not like them?

Right now I'm listening to Grunt: Pigorian Chant from Snouto Domoinko de Silo.
A highly amusing album. :)

The Red Elvises, "Grooving to the Moscow Beat". Yup, the same Russian surf
music band featured in the film "Six String Samurai".

The Red Elvises again. Not really surf music (that term came off the CD
cover) but early rock with a lot of bluegrass and of course Russian folk
influences.

Sounds interesting.. How was "Six String Samurai"?
the Magnetic Fields -- "Holiday" I'm getting tired of waiting
for "69 Love Songs" to be re-printed..
