Thanks, @Bogart, a few names there that were familiar but never before investigated. So that’s Van Der Graaff Generator…and for some reason I always imagined that Eels dabbled in electronica, don’t know what […]

BTW, I’ve no idea why I thought it sounded like Michael Stipe, but not enough like him to actually BE him…that was weird.

But not as weird as not recognizing “In my Time Of Dying” – a song that I have several […]

Her voice has changed quite a bit from her first recordings with the band when she sounded slightly like a cartoon chipmunk girl…these days her voice is deeper and has more range than it used to. Probably took […]

@StellarX, @Bogart: OK, may as well post my track list too then!

1. Oändlig Vals (“Infinite Waltz”) – Barbro Hörberg.
This is an anomaly, being an instrumental track by a popular Swedish singer-songwriter who w […]

Love it, @Bogart – and really interesting to see how differently the two of you reacted to the same tracks! Can’t wait for the reveals, but first I must review your own compilation.
So I’ll do that right away:

1. […]

😀 Thank you, I needed a good laugh after a horrid day at work today!
I’m glad you liked one track at least…I always enjoy throwing in some odd choices on these themed CDs. But this time around I actually like […]

Welcome back, Dolly!
“Full of life”…but with a bunch of physical ailments! 😀
Unfortunately I suspect that most people here are in your shoes regarding old magazines…but good luck, I hope they find a good home.

OK, I’ve digested the CD from @stellarX the required number of times now, so here we go!

1: I’d never heard this track before, but it didn’t take long to figure out the band! An unmistakeable sound with that […]

Had a first listen last night and not a single stinker, which might be a swap first. (I seriously doubt that you feel the same about mine! 😀 )

Got mine today! 🙂

Thanks for the tip, I’m planning to work my way through their works over time (but have quite a substantial stack to get through at the moment, so I’m not allowed to buy any more books right now! 🙂

Hm, I don’t really tell most people that many details about my life, unless I know that it’s a subject we are both interested in, and the few friends I have (after a life of working late hours) are not interested […]

It’s been relegated to Bathroom Book, serving the dual purpose of making me read it, but not keeping me in there forever! 😀

Heard:
Like last month, hardly anything – except choosing between a bunch of tracks more or less suited for the latest swap theme; future. But at least I’ve finally placed another order for new albums, so I’ll […]

Mine are ready to ship out – just need to listen to the burned CDs to check that the audio is fine.

I’d agree with that.

Kim Fowley was a very creative guy…but also a sexual predator type a-hole.

(Making him the worst kind, obviously)

They have a beautiful almost quilted kind of look, makes me want to reach out and touch them to feel the seams and the texture of non-existent fabric. Stunning, as always.

Tara and Merlin. Wow…
