tried that, to no avail (can't even open the 7D DLM; i know it's there, but it won't open when i click the icon). i do appreciate the suggestions, tho.
now in sixth hour of efforts to download six albums. -

now my "locker" says i've downloaded one of my purchases too many times, and can't download it again. and, of course, the repeated downloads are because i'm trying to get the DLM to work.
never again, i think. not that it matters; only… -
again i'm convinced that 7digital is a pain-in-the-ass (i downloaded the download manager, but the albums i bought aren't getting processed through it; so i think i'll -- once again -- have to (a) save them in my external drive; (b) burn them to a d…

the fuss is justified. -
i'm also kind of in love with this lush, vamping piano-driven remix of the commodores' easy. it's by some act affiliated with divine recordings (a band/group …

this year's best-of lists are unearthing more gems than i remember in recent years; tho maybe the reason is really that i'm paying more attention to singles than albums this year. in any event, i'll use this space to mention some noteworthy gems th…

also craig, if you get into dub, you may also want to explore dubstep, maybe even as a gateway to other underground uk dance/electronic genres. there are tenuous connections between dub and dubstep (dubstep draws far more directly from prior uk gen…

brighternow is right: king tubby and lee perry are essential. The Island 50 is a nice overview. To go deeper, Id say at least these…

you're welcome!
just over the past weekend, that disc made my wife a low fan (i'm not sure she'd remember the name of the band, but she loved the disc). -

but sometimes his words are awkward and jarring (lines sometimes end with a thud when the lyrics don't rhyme and sometimes his lyrics are just unseemly, e.g., "I wanted to change the world/But I could not even change my underwear")… -

yeah. i've been on a singles-kick this year. but i am looking forward to more from a lot of those bands -- chiefly, the dirty beaches, whose debut (badlands) is out on the zoo music label early next year. -

i never got around to downloading caribou. i was out of town when emusic announced that we had two-days left to download albums from caribou's label, and i didn't make it back home in time to grab it. i see it on a lot of lists, … -

UPDATE: Fixed (I hope). Better?i didn't alter anything; just cut-and-paste the url.
does anyone know how to embed youtube clips inside a thread here? on another forum (ilx) you can just cut-and-paste the youtube url, and the clip directly appears in the thread. any …yeah . . . frustrating.interesting concept for an album (made me think of the "red guitar + three chords + the truth" meme i just learned).
are you just a fan, or are you in this band?i noticed the change, too. i didn't see the note craig refers to, tho.oh, i have a ton of them. it's a good list. i'd put runaway over round and round, but that's quibbling (i'd also put gil scott heron's the devil and me and grinderman's worm tamer in my top 5, but again, quibbling).^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
