Fred and Ethel were on XM, actually. The names changed when XM merged with Sirius, with most of those channels merging with similarly programmed Sirius channels.
I've had Sirius for about 5 years and have loved it, particularly their Bl… -
Supertramp's Indelibly Stamped is also rather...not subtle.

Jeff Beck live at Ronnie Lee Scott's.
That's a good set. Have you seen the DVD? It has some stuff not on the album, including Clapton (yeah, I know, how many times do those guys need to play together, but at least they don't play "Furt… -
The best pizza in the universe, however, is the Palace Special from Pagliai's in Iowa City, IA. Yeah, you heard me. Iowa.
Naah. Papa Del's, Champaign IL -
Bottom right. Nice tie. Did the jacket have elbow patches?

I got in trouble over there for dissing the Dead, but I stand by it. Musically, they know their influences and are not short on chops, but it all seems like just so much noodling to me. I've also had just a bit too much of specific Deadheads that …

Lucius Malfoy = Jason Isaacs, who was also the bad guy in Mel Gibson's overly-patriotic "The Patriot". When I saw the first HP movie I thought it was Timothy Dalton (1980's James Bond) in a blown-out wig. The connection between the two is that Isa…

I see where you're coming from. I lean more toward the Chicago Blues/Blues Rock, I think cuz I'm into melody, but it's all good. In fact most of my tastes run to the melodic, whether it's jazz, power pop, and even (shudder) AOR… -
Beatles - Revolver
Blind Faith - Blind Faith
B.B. King - Live at the Regal
Johnny Cash - Live at Folsom (the "regular" version--the Legacy version has both sets and that starts to wear thin)
Daniel Lanois - For the Beauty of … -
I wore myself out on Beirut's "Gulag Orkestar". I was so smitten with the sound and depth of it that I literally played it non-stop for about 2 weeks. Now I can barely tolerate listening to a single track, even though I still appreciate it musical…

Yeah, the "Truce" is all about them. My take on what Ray23 posted is that they want amnesty for all the crap they've posted in the past, but make no claims about not doing it again in the future--specifically, Wandy's pathological trait of posting …

Yeah, Big-D, I'm regretting my assistance to Ray-Ray on the Blues thread. I guess I was hoping that enough recs might keep him focused on music, but now he seems to be focusing himself on being one cheek of an enormous ass.
As for Wandy… -
Re: Lonnie Donnegan--the Beatles cited him as an influence, and Mark Knopfler wrote a song about him (Donnegan's Gone).
And that's the limit of any useful information I have there. -
Any Knopfler soundtrack is candy to my ears. Local Hero being one of the best, but Princess Bride, Cal, Metroland, Shot at Glory, and Wag the Dog.
I would also put American Grafitti on this list, and I remember wearing the grooves out o… -
OK, I've been gathered. Wondering if you were really looking for Big-D, but what they heck, I'm game. I like xmas music and love to bash against the pure cultural crassness attached to a religious holiday.
