What Are You Listening to?

[Pumpkin-22]

A couple good albums I've just glommed onto:

Los Campesinos!: Sticking Fingers Into Sockets (6 songs, 16 minutes, a punk group that finds the right balance between "pretentious and pop").

Nellie McKay: Obligatory Villagers (A feminist with a sense of humor).

If you've heard anything great lately, let us all know, eh?

Looking forward to hearing the 3 hour Hold Steady concert I just got from the NPR Live Concert podcast.

And a steady diet of the Coverville Podcast, which comes out 2 or 3 times a week.

And a bunch of late 70s Little Feat concerts from www.archive.com. Love that funky sound.

And I just can't quit listening to Dread's 2004 MagnoliaFest show, from www.tapers.org.

It's all JohnR's fault. I used to just order up some tunes from Amazon. Now I'm a FLAC addict.

I wasted a perfectly good hour last night surfing Doug Sahm videos on YouTube.

Anybody going to San Antone?

[TreeFrog]

John Coltrane: A Love Supreme Live.

2nd CD of the deluxe edition, or the Marsalis?

Most people leave the room when I fire this one up...

[Pumpkin-22]

I am not sure if this is the same recording as what's on the deluxe ed. I found it on emusic. 30 tracks for $9.99, so the Coltrane cost me a grand total of 2 tracks (66 cents) as opposed to the album only ****e they pull on iTunes.

You should consider ditching those people who leave the room when you put on Trane!

[Pumpkin-22]

My Morning Jacket, New Panic and Drive-By Truckers for me!!

the new Truckers is first-rate. I grew up in the North Alabama town where Hood and Cooley formed their first band, Adam's House Cat. I was extremely happy over their success, which surprised me since I'm usually such an envious type.

[Pumpkin-22]

This week I'm spinning Lily Allen's "Alright, Still" an early 2007 release but new to me. Also a bunch of love songs since Cupid finally got around to me.

[TreeFrog]

I am not sure if this is the same recording as what's on the deluxe ed.

If it's live and actually Coltrane, it's the recording from the deluxe edition. That's the only live performance available. It was from a festival in France.

Who's listened to the new Counting Crows? Thoughts?

[supermom262]

I absolutely love this guy and hope he has a great career ahead of him!

Careful there SJ.

Bet most of your peeps discreetly wander off when you crank that up...

[Johnrudy]

Vampire Weekend, constantly, for the past two days. Absolutely loving this CD.

oooooo, they're playing to a sold out show at the Metro this weekend.

[Smiling JOe]

Funny you say that, because just today, I had it cranking, and the thought ran through my mind that most people just don't get it, and that is fine by me. Miles plays some very personal music, which speaks only to the lucky few.

Vampire Weekend, constantly, for the past two days. Absolutely loving this CD.

We were separated at birth, I am absolutely convinced. I've been listening to Vampire Weekend for the last month or so. VW is the up music, and the new Jack Johnson is the downtime music.

I believe all of the above have some live shows which can be downloaded for free at tapers.org, but you have to have some skills. (compliments of John R and a few other tapers -- free to download and share, but not for selling)
