Presumably that's the version on "Stop Making Sense", which was re-issued
this year with many of the best parts of the movie soundtrack restored..

Pete Townshend, "Psychoderelict".
This remains my favorite output from the failed "Lifehouse" projects, although
"Who's Next" remains a close second.
Incidentally, the live show at the Brooklyn Academy of the Performing arts
(something like that) video that I got off of PBS "Great Performances" a few
years ago is in fact available, as the Pete Townshend live tape/DVD. It's
a great live show of Psychoderelict, actors and everything.

Tom Waits, "Frank's Wild Years" (the album, not the song).
How the heck does he pull this off? This CD should be terrible, but somehow
it's great.

Dire Straits greatest hits "Sultans of Swing" CD, song on now
is 'Calling Elvis'.
It does have 'Twisting by the Pool' but does not have 'Industrial
Disease'.

re #83: That's OK, it gives you an excuse to buy "Love Over Gold",
which is their best album anyway..

I'm not listening to anything at work, but I'm happy that "Waiting for Mommie"
by Thrill Kill Kult is going through my head on repeat. =)

Thomas Dolby, "The Flat Earth".
My personal favorite, but of course not his big seller. I'm busy doing a Web
search in another window to see if this is available again; for a long time
his earlier stuff was out of distribution in the US and there was only a dumb
compilation.
(Yes! CDNew has it for only $12! Now what else do I need? Maybe Peter
Gabriel's "Security", which is the other side of this old crusty cassette I've
been listening to for years?)

I doubt it'd get enough traffic to justify it, but I'm sometimes tempted
to enter an item where we can announce excellent albums that have finally
come back into print..
"Flat Earth" isn't my favorite Dolby (I still like GAoW) but it didn't
deserve to be deleted from U.S. catalogs, either.. I'm also glad to
note that the (English) Beat's "I Just Can't Stop It" is once again
available domestically.

Some late-night jazz program on 88.3 here in Snowmass Village, Colorado.
Nice stuff, they haven't announced what they are playing in a while.

Ah, the last two tracks were Mingus' "Better Git It In Your Soul"
(which I should have recognized) and a Charlie Hunter song, "Nothing
But Trouble." I looked the album up on Amazon and will see about getting
a copy when I get home.
The station is Community Access Radio from Carbondale, a less pricey
town downvalley from Aspen which is at least in part an artists'
colony. After the long jazz set they switched over to rap and I switched
over to a CD: "Tarentule," by the French 1970s band of the same name,
which is a folk/early music blend. This was in a package of stuff
which arrived today from Rockin' World.

(Does Dolby have enough to have an "early" period? To my knowledge, he only
had four full-length albums, the last of which was a pseudosoundtrack.)
"TheFlat Earth" struck me, frankly, as dolby trying to follow in Gabriel's
footsteps, and failing. "Zulu" especially smacked of someone trying to be
artsier than they were ready for (while on the other end, "Hyperactive" wasa
decent addictive radio track, was an obvious attempt at "This record's gotta
sell!")
And actually, now that I think of it, Dolby had a total of six albums (four
studio, two soundtracks), so I guess he did have an "early period" and a late
period. =}
Of course, my two favorites -- Aliens ate my buick! and the ST to Gotic --
aren't available domestically.
And CDNow tells me it's "Mulu" not "Zulu."
Oh, to the topic, I'm not listening to anything right now.
