Sari Kaasinen & Sirmaaka, "Tshi Tshi." Sari was the original leader of
Varttina until she left that band about five years ago. Her spinoff
album is pretty good.

Talking Heads, "The Warner Brothers Music Show," a 1979 live promo LP.
Getting ready for a big vinyl binge this weekend.
This obscurity is mostly of interest for a fast arrangement of the song
"Electricity" from the FEAR OF MUSIC album, but there are a few other
nice touches. Too bad it was already pretty scratched up when I got it,
though a treatment with LAST record preservative in the mid 80s seems to
have quieted it down somewhat.

Five Hand Reel, first album. Completely brilliant 70s Scottish electric
folk band, now fading fast into the mists of obscurity because legal
disputes have prevented any CD issues.

Saliva "Every 6 seconds" It's a great album, honest, just get over the name,
and it's good!

CDs that I got this past weekend at MarCon
Michael Longcor - Kitchen Junk Drawer
Michael Longcor - Heartburn
Nate Bucklin - Rainbow's Edge
Barry and Sally Childs-Helton - Tempus Fugitives
Heather Alexander - A Gypsy's Home
ookla the mok - smell no evil
The first four contain a lot of material that is on out-of-print
cassettes that I already have. Michael Longcor has the highest percent
of 'new anywhere' of those. Heather and ookla are all new material.

Adrian Belew, "Lone Rhino". It's a CD I made from the vinyl copy I've owned
for years. This album and the following "Twang Bar King" are *still* out of
print and essentially moldering in the record company's vault despite Belew's
attempts to get possesion.

Well, I'd like to cheat and say I was listening to LAIS, the Belgian group
of extraordinary female harmonisers, but I'm not. :) What's more, I don't know
who I'm listening to, since *whoever* sent this didn't bother to label the
song or artist. ;-P I think it's in French.

Right now, "The Rhythm of the Goat" by Jim Fidler, from Newfoundland. This
is off the Naciones Celtas IV compilation, which includes many diverse
Canadian groups like Les Charbonniers de L'Enfer & Les Batinses from Quebec,
Barachois from P.E.I., Gordie Sampson and Mary Jane Lamond from Nova Scotia,
and Orealis and Rare Air from Ontario.

The Moulin Rouge Soundtrack. It has Ewan McGregor and Nicole Kidman singing
on it, and they both have pretty good voices. I really dig Ewan's rendition
of "Your Song", and a few of their songs are medolys of other stuff. My
favorite has to be "Elephant Love Medely", which has about 9 or 10 different
love songs, all tied together with some other stuff. Quite good.

Ben Folds Five, _The Unauthorized Biography etc. etc._ I know this is the
album of theirs that you're not supposed to like, but I've fallen madly in
love with it. Typical. :)

re #328: Any opinion on the Massive Attack / David Bowie collaboration
on the Moulin Rouge soundtrack?

Did nothing for me....but I think it's because I really didn't like the song
all that much, so really don't pay any attention to it.

I'll have to seek it out somewhere, I guess.. It doesn't really sound
like a promising match-up, but I like Bowie and love Massive Attack, so..

(Then again, I imagine Freddy Mercury and David Bowie struck some people as
a bad matchup until they went and did it.)
