I have just started a subscription with eMusic, 'cos I got 50 free downloads when I downloaded Winamp & because I can fill in a few gaps in my Muslimgauze collection

Currently listening to Reuber - ruhig blut b

Really nice, long version of a Staubgold label sampler track I've loved for ages...

Magnum - Vigilante

Super uplifting album from 1986 with near perfect songs, my favourite is the title track itself

A collection of stuff by Curtis Mayfield. A beautiful man.

The Best of Eddie Cochran. I found the CD after buying it at a charity shop a few years ago. It's wonderful. A bit of a nostalgia-fest, since my parents and my uncle used to listen to him when I was a kid - but boy, could he play guitar.

Miracle of the Voice - Natalie Dessay

Two CDs worth of highlights from recordings by the French Soprano. This is one of a bundle of classical CDs I picked up cheap in France last weekend. It's the enhanced package with a DVD I am saving for Friday night with a bottle of red. I have a weakness for French sopranos ....

Hellbilly Deluxe - Rob Zombie
The Best of Black Sabbath

They seemed to be the most appropriate choices today.

Someone's lent me Sacred Hearts and Fallen Angels, the best of Gram Parsons. After Eddie Cochran, someone else who died young. I am enjoying it, though

New Okkervil River album. It's okay, but gets a bit bland after a while.

Imelda May - love tattoo. The first time I've ever asked the staff in a music shop 'what's this CD you're playing?'

It's absolutely fantastic!!

Last night I spent an uncomfortable 3 hours in the company of Eddi Reader and her band. Eddi was wonderful as always, but the seats at Pacific Road are like something out of a torture museum!

The opening act was a chap called Dean Owens from Leith. Dean did 30 minutes with guitar & harmonica (and was joined by Kevin McGuire on double bass for a couple of tracks).

My favourite was "The Man From Leith", a tribute to his father. I enjoyed his session so much I bought his new CD "Whiskey Hearts"

A few sample tracks here http://www.deanowens.com/content/multimedia/audio/

Old Wild Men - 10cc

How on earth did they come across as a pop band in the early 70's when they were doing this stuff at the same time?

The Renaissance - Q-Tip (from A Tribe Called Quest) - it just seems so entirely appropriate to be listening to intelligent hip hop in the circumstances!

Because you were too young to understand the references.
