RE #61 BTW, did you know that "Video Killed The Radio Star" was the very first
video shown on MTV?

Tara Jane O'Neill - former bassist from Rodan, practitioner of the
music genre known as "math rock." Quite good.

resp:64 resp:61 From what I heard, not only was it the first video
shown on MTV (ironic, isn't it?), but the lead singer was Trevor Horn,
now a successful music producer.

Math rock... sort of angular, dry, abstract music with an emphasis on
texture rather than vocals or melody... lots of improvising. Well-
known practitioners include Slint, Gastr del Sol, the aforementioned
Rodan. Most math rock is on the Quarterstick or Touch and Go labels
out of Chicago.
Think of it as "hipster prog." :)

Wow, I'd never put Slint in there with those bands, but would add Rachels,
June of 44, and Rex.
slint is ROCK straight up! ;-)

Antonio Carlos Jobim & Elis Regina, "Elis and Tom." I bought this
record because it has "Waters of March" on it. I love that song!

I'm doing much the same thing, but with CDs, in preparation for a
road trip (I don't much like to risk my CDs in the car, so I dupe
the ones I know I'm listen to in the car..)

Uv Da $exx $ymbol", lag prevented me.)

Clannad with Bono - "In a Lifetime". It's a great blend of both their
styles...his vocals with hers as undertones, and her music. It's haunting,
peaceful, and powerful all at once.
