Madlib-Shades of Blue (some amazing ****!) Blackalicious-Blazing Arrow MF Doom-Mmm...Food Quannam-Quannam Spectrum Madvillain-Madvillainy Jurassic 5-Quality Control Dave Matthews-Some Devil Keane-Hopes and Fears The Killers-Hot Fuss The Roots-Tipping Point As you can see, I'm on a big hip-hop thing right now. Shades of Blue has been an epiphany for me. Dude takes all these old Blue Note recordings and layers them with a nice beat. Mostly instrumental, but still bad.
I'm currently filling up my home cd player with all of my favorite songs and bands I loved through the ages since I was a little kid. This includes all the bands I don't really care about anymore these days but still like to hear for old times sake (after a few beers...). Put the system on all cd shuffle and let the memories roll!
"These Things I Believe" by Johnny Calhoun, a spoken word album of his right wing political beliefs that kinda killed his career.
I dunno. I don't have a.m. right now. Just giving a hard time about a well-hidden "What's in CD" thread.
I'm a huge Doom fan...not so much Madlib/Quasimoto. I've been listening to M.O.T.O., The Wipers, and the latest Black Keys record a lot lately.
different channels on my new Sirius radio.... I havent played a CD since I got this thing.....too many good things to listen to. Spend most of my time on Buzzsaw and Hair Nation....flipping between those and Classic Vinyl, Raw Dog Comedy and Octane.
Green Day - American Idiot Libertines - Libertines Arcade Fire - Funeral Ted Leo & Pharmacists - Shake the Sheets Brian Wilson - Smile
Clever thread title - I was expecting "What are you listening to" or "What's in the CD player", but you threw me for a huge loop there. And then adding 'The New Years Edition' - I'm all off-kilter now. Anyway ... The new Beatles box, mainly "The Beatles' Second Album" Val Emmich - "Slow Down Kid" Eddie Spaghetti - "The Sauce" Supersuckers - "Live at the Magic Bag" "Motown - the Classic Years" Neil Diamond - "Hot August Night" reissue (that's for you RM) Rolling Stones - "Between the Buttons" and "Out of Our Heads"
Haha - 3 things that are constant in life: 1) Death 2) Taxes 3) A What's in the CD Player Thread in the Hangout In my car: "Staring at the Sea" - The Cure "Kiss Me, Kiss Me, Kiss Me" - The Cure "Disintegration" - The Cure "All Mixed Up" - The Cure "Wish" - The Cure "Galore" - The Cure Hmmm, I guess I really like the Cure. At home: "Introducing the Eleventh House with Larry Coryell" - Eleventh House "Turn It Over" - Tony Williams Lifetime "The Procrastinator" - Lee Morgan "The First Seven Days" - Jan Hammer "Coltrane Plays the Blues" - John Coltrane "My Funny Valentine + Four and More: The Complete 1964 Concert" - Miles Davis "Enigmatic Ocean" - Jean-Luc Ponty "Birds of Fire" - Mahavishnu Orchestra
I'll go with some Doom too... MF Doom - Vaudeville Villian Bjork - Medulla Cee-Lo - Green Is the Soul Machine Sonic Youth - Sonic Nurse (yeah, finally getting around to some of the big ones) Triosk - I forget the name Black Forest/Black Sea - something about Constellations Architecture in Helsinki - Fingers Crossed Iron & Wine - 9/20/02 (or some date...damn, I don't know the titles of half my stuff) Avhak - Avhak Sleepy Time Gorilla Museum - Of Natural History Black Moth Super Rainbow - I forget the name, ugh
Classic "Red, Red Wine" and "Holly Holy" right there. Good stuff. BTW, have you ever seen Agent Cody Banks? There's a scene with a Butch song. Talk about being off-kilter.
New Stuff: "Double Up" - Bill Connors "Restful Mind" - Larry Coryell "A Love Supreme" - John Coltrane "Coltrane Jazz" - John Coltrane "Ready for Freddie" - Freddie Hubbard "Go" - Dexter Gordon "Hand Jive" - John Scofield
Man, I hate to post in this thread again but currently listening to "War" by U2, specifically "New Year's Day".
Bah... My New Years song has always been "Manny's Christmas" It goes: (in George Michael verbage) Last Christmas, I gave you my soap But the very next day, you pooped on the rope This year, in front of my peers I'll toss it to someone special....
