Very fine tasty acoustic guitarist. -
Ear worms - what a curse. As a young teenager I found myself constantly haunted by commercial jingles. Thankfully when I got slightly older and expanded my "horizons" (and my music listening) it got replaced by songs, but the wrong song can reall…

Yippee on the fiver this AM - thanks, dd.
@amclark - Somewhere Back In Time as a sort of best of early years is pretty close to my Iron Maiden favorites playlist, just don't… -
I am reading an advance copy of this very weird fiction, very weird, but I have enjoyed it. The Gulag Archipelago with a hint of Exorcist filtered through a Philip K. Dick bad acid trip just about sums it up.

Must be like being the zillionth customer on that cashier line or something.
@amclark2 - saw your Number Of The Beast post in the Listening thread - is Maiden is new … -
There's something goin' on here but I don't know what it is.....but there seem to be an unusual number of CDs available around the $4.99 mark, but I can't suss the pattern. The fact that I don't think there is a Master Search by price for CDs as th…

I tried to like Galactica based on near blood-oath recs by friends but I just couldn't get into it, and Blood and Chrome got squeezed out by other viewing.
Still hooked on The Following based on the first three episodes (only saw #3 yest… -
And don't miss RT's cover of Oops, I Did It Again on 1000 Years of Popular Music - hysterical, yes, but curiously it really works too. Love it.
For the shred fans in the audience, a Guitar World online feature I just saw rated th… -
Oh, bother, another Big Box? I suppose I'll just have to stuff it into that 14GB Mozart Smart Playlist somehow, but anything for Big Mo. Look to be some good performers in there - thanks, BT.

Just picked this one up at G. before, along with Another Workout.

G has the last Sofia Talvik album I notice - she is one of my favorite discoveries from back at Amie.
-
Just finished the 14th and final volume of the Wheel Of Time series (that's a lot of subway commutes) and am pretty well satisfied with the finale. The three posthumous volumes, coauthored by Brandon Sanderson, redeemed the series for me after the …

Got the house to myself, so time to make some eardrums bleed - love this album cover too.
-
Never mind.
-
@ac2 - looked that one up but it didn't seem like the one I thought I remembered - just having a Finnegan's Wake moment I guess.
-
I feel the Downton writing has been a letdown so far this season - we were strung along on a few crises that turned out not to be crises after all, the major one involving the Abbey itself, and now this rather heavy handed touch. Of course, compare…

(Quote) What, you don't like Alice? She may grow on you as things progress. Luther was one of our favorites from the last couple of years. I believe Sherlock is from the producers of Doctor Who, and there are certain quirks about it that remin…

Deluxe package of Billy Gibbons pre-Top psych-rock Texas late 60's. Found 7digital had the best price for the 2-fer at $9.99. -
My biggest, and likely last, mistake would have been going to a show alone - Richard Thompson, some years ago at the Bottom Line on Valentine's Day. I found out about it late and when I went to the box office there was only one ticket left. Being …

Easy one for me. In 1973 I had a roommate fond of this English quartet whose previous several albums had tended towards a psychedelic space-rock kind of vibe that I hadn't found that attractive (they are still the albums in their catalog I listen t…

Kargatron, there must be something because the average artist search should yield more - say Miles Davis - this should yield three columns of results, left to right, as Artists, being Miles Davis and any other group the words Miles Davis appears in,…

Thanks, BT, will be up next.

Courtesy of G. - all the tracks incl. Album Only available. -
GP, try using the tracks on this CD at Amazon as a guide - Nat …

Just found that G has Insane Times - 25 British Psychedelic Artyfacts From the EMI Vaults, a most entertaining comp that I have the CD of, but G has a 30 song bonus version as found on in Guvera Comment by BigD-Bluez January 2013

(Quote) @ac2 - The Nat King Cole trio stuff is primo - they swung hard and Nat was truly kinda badass on the piano, and Oscar Moore was a terrific guitarist - great tone, almost p…

Very interesting album thematically linked only by being played on acoustic guitars I guess - when you go from Cephas & Wiggins to Badi Assad it's odd - but it's good music. I unfortunately made the mistake of downloading it at eMu and got all …

From the New This Week this caught my eye - on Ace Records a collection of old and pretty obscure blues - Blues For Do…

Here's my G. list for the last 18 months or so -
Anson Funderburgh and the Rockets

Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers,or & the Jazz Messengers
Art Farmer Quintet with Gigi Gryce
Art Tatum (the Group Mas… -
Just fleshed out almost the whole set at G. - only missing a few Album Onlys, not bad.
