"Christina Deutekom Sings Verdi." A $5 album from Harmony House
Classical. A live recording mostly of excerpts from Verdi's "Attila,"
which we hope to be seeing in Chicago in a few weeks.

"Last Christmas" by George Michael and Wham! Yes, I'm into
listening to Christmas CDs. New ones I got this year.

(Apotheosis, "O Fortuna." it's been *so* long... and, yes, it's still
illegal.)

While in a very entertaining late-night/early morning party, I heard several
brilliant songs by the Asturian group, Felpeyu. Playing now, "Quirosanu"

The wonders of the Internet. :)
Joe Strummer and the Mescaleros, "Rock Art and the X-Ray Style."
It could probably pass for a good Clash album.

Peter Gabriel, OVO. Er, um. "The Weavers Reel" is nice, but most of the
rest of the first five tracks are not essential.

(I'm at the North Wind offices, and they're listening to the D'Angelo
album [you know, *the* D'Angelo album <no, I'm not going to get up and
see what the name of it is; it's *that* one {for the love of... ok, it's
"Voodoo." are you happy now?}. if you don't know, ask someone else.>, the
new one.]. I'm not sure which track is playing. heck, I only recognize
something like three tracks off the album.)

On the way to work today, the radio station played Burl Ives "Have a Holly
Jolly Christmas"...and it's in my head now. There were 2...well...3 christmas
albums that were played in my house growing up a lot. Burl Ives, Ferrante
and Teicher (please forgive the spelling if it is wrong...it's been y ears
since I have seen it) with two women dressed as santa's helpers on the cover,
and Jim Neighbors with "Go Tell it on the Mountain"...Burl Ives was perfect
today...I'm gonna have to go find it on CD

A British Import CD call "Ultimate Christmas". A two CD set again
packaging many tunes more popular in England. I like listeing to them.
Strange though, this package has a lot of rather recent British stuff,
plus some 60's Motown, and Bing Crosby's White Christmas.

Pete Townshend's "All the Best Cowboys have Chinese Eyes". Title aside, this
is my favorite of his earlier solo albums.

I'd agree that it's the best of his earlier solo stuff, though I've never
been a huge fan of his solo releases. (Actually, I think if you put all
of them together you could come up with two or three really great albums
but the classic to filler ratio on many of his solo releases is way too
high for me..)

errr.. make that "the classic to filler ratio is much too low"
in general I'd prefer more classics, less filler.

Out of all the songs on ".. Chinese Eyes" only one is annoying enough to make
me usually fast forward to the next.
Mike, would you care to contrast the average Who release with the average
Townshend solo release around that period? ;)

Janacek's "Sinfonietta" and "Glagolitic Mass," conducted by Simon
Rattle. Emerson Lake and Palmer grabbed a riff out of the "Sinfonietta"
in one of their albums, but I can't remember which one...

re #361: Next time we negotiate a trade treaty with Canada, I'm all in
favor of a clause demanding an "Underwhelmed" moratorium. It's an
entertaining enough, if not particularly brilliant, song but I'd like to
hear some other song by Sloan on the radio at some point. It's my
understanding that they have entire albums of songs that *aren't*
"underwhelmed"
