Maite Dono, "Os Reis do Caurel" ... yet another Galician vocalist, singing
in front of traditional CeltIberian instrumentation. Her style is very
lyrical, and I enjoy hearing a range of emotion in her voice.

resp:62 :: I didn't know there were multiple Bests of Pete Townshend.
This one is a 1996 compilation which is subtitled "Cool Walking...etc"

REM, "Fables of the Reconstruction."  Eeek, I feel old.

Bill Jones, "Tam Lin" - from a performance recorded live off BBC Radio 3.
Piano and flugelhorn make an interesting mix for this song.

Oooh.
 
Beatles, MAGICAL MYSTERY TOUR.  I feel very old.

Steely Dan, "Aja".  An old vinyl copy; I really should buy the CD.  Fantastic
album.

  It's definitely an amazing piece of work.  I think there are several
  other Steely Dan albums I prefer, but "Aja" is perhaps the "Steely Dan-iest"
  they ever got -- their obsessive studio perfectionism reaches a sort of
  climax on that album..

Piano and flugelhorn does sound interesting, and "Tam Lin" is one of my
favorite tunes.  Do you know if that version of the tune's been released
publicly, or should I beg for a copy of your copy?

I do know that "Tam Lin" appears on Bill Jones' newest CD, PANCHPURAN, but
I don't own it, yet, and can't say if the recorded arrangement is the same
piano and flugelhorn that she uses on the live performance. Several reviewers
have spoken about her version of the song, and I've read that the arrangement
on the CD is for string quartet and "sparse piano." It's worth mentioning that
she's written an entirely new tune for the words, as well.

I certainly don't mind sharing, and won't make you beg. In fact, I've already
made a copy for krj; another copy won't be a problem.

I could tell you about the studio performance if the living room hadn't
eaten the bleeping CD.  Bill's PANCHPURAN has been picked up for 
US domestic release -- on Compass Records, I think -- so there should 
be some used promo copies around.

"a new tune for the words" -- Ah, so this is the ballad called 'Tam Lin,' not
the fiddle tune.  Ah well.  Still interested, though.

What fiddle tune is known as "Tam Lin?"

        My Halloween music, listed in item 46.

resp:77 :: boy, do I feel dumb.  I was looking at Steeleye Span's album
TIME tonight, and the ending part of "The Old Maid in the Garrett" 
is an instrumental tune named "Tam Lin."

Yep.  That's the one.  It's getting pretty common as a contra dance tune.

Adrian Belew, "Young Lions".

The Monkees, "Greatest Hits," the 1995 package from Rhino.  
I'd wanted copies of the songs "Last Train to Clarksville" and "Stepping
Stone" for years, and then yesterday at dinner the muzak was playing 
"I'm A Believer," so we decided that it was time to get a good 
Monkees anthology.

        The Markets 'Outer Limits' (theme) from my "Oldies but Ghoulies
from the Crypt" collection out of the list in item 46.  The collection
has 31 tunes from the 50's and 60's.

Incubus, "Morning View."  There's a conference item in here, I imagine.

  re #83:  I'd never thought of the Marketts' (two 't's) "Out of Limits"
  as a Hallowe'en song, but I suppose one could stretch, given its obvious
  Twilight Zone inspiration..

        It came on a Halloween compilation I got.  Yes, loose association.

Kay Starr's version of "Headless Horseman" is playing now.  I think it
is the same tune Bing Crosby sang in Disney's "Legend of Sleepy Hollow".
