T-Rex - Electric Warrior Two Hoots and a Holler - No Man's Land I'm ion a huge T-Rex kick lately. Marc Bolan was really insane(read a biography on him) but a lot of his music is really upbeat. It's almost as if he truly loved where his madness had taken him. I laugh frequently while listening to his stuff.

Kind of late chiming in, but I always love these threads as some of you guys really have great taste and I never fail to pick up a gem or two as a result. Well, the 5 cds in the player are: Jayhawks - Rainy Day Music Saidies - Favourite Colours - Caught the guys with Neko Case recently and they are incredible musicians. I bought this cd at the show. Brian Wilson - Smile - I already expressed my love for this cd in a lame attempt at a review here. Surprisingly, Smile is up for a grammy. Anna Warronker - Anna - Simply killer! Geraldine Fibbers - Butch - This CD just keeps getting better. BTW, Mr Meowgis' Buzzcock fixation has me wanting to go get a Different Kind of Tension and Singles Going Steady on CD. I lost my vinyl versions years ago and between his mentions of them and a surprising amount of airplay from them on San Diegos' alt radio stations has me Jonsing in a bad way
More stuff: "Amused to Death" - Roger Waters (the best solo Floyd album) "Odelay!" - Beck "Loveless" - My Bloody Valentine "Ghosts of the Great Highway" - Sun Kil Moon "Lift Yr. Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven" - GYBE!

Great f'n CD! BTW, I've been listening to RealRhapsody alot lately through a free 30 day and then a free 14 day trial. I have found so many new artists I can't keep up with them. One I was checking out earlier is Afu-Ra, an east coast hip-hop artist from the 90's. I've also found some really bad artists such as ID-X who did an Eminem dis-song that features none other than his own mother!!! If anyone is interested in how to check out the free trial, shoot me an email. Currently I'm listening to KISS - Smashes, Thrashes And Hits. LET'S PUT THE X IN SEX!
Ok, just started listening to something new so I wanted to update. The Dresden Dolls (self titled) Oh, and in anticipation of the new NIN album coming out in May, Trent has so kindly released a short 20 second clip of new material. So yeah, I've played that about 100 times in the last 12 hours. http://www.nin.com/visuals/with_teeth_teaser.html
Tones on Tail - Everything Cobra Killer - 76~77 Boom Bip - Blue Eyed in the Red Room Analord (Aphex Twin) - Analord 1 & 2 Les Savy Fav - Go Forth! A Live Aquatic with Steve Zissou - soundrack Japanic - first album
Hey kids, I need some new crunching powerchord music but without the vocalist screaming his throat out in angst. Jet is great, The Hives are good...give me a couple of more suggestions. Here's my six in the truck: Yes - Keystudio Neil Young - Greatest Hits (Neil's great on rainy winter days) Southern Culture on the Skids - Mojo Box Kings of Leon - Youth and Young Manhood (still in there) John Hiatt - Beneath This Gruff Exterior The Delgaddo Brothers - A Brother's Dream (blues fan's check them out)
Made a switch today. I have been rotating between the: Libertines - Can't Stand Me Now Cornershop - Woman's Gotta Have it Cornershop - Handcream for a Generation I'm still obsessed with T- Rex. So I will probably slip some more T - Rex listening in sometime during the day. I think the Who Thread is helping keep me focussed on him because of a line from one of the Who Songs which mentions him.
Just put in The Stone Roses self-titled album - brilliant. That is all I can say about it - brilliant.
Wow, is that the same Cornershop from "Brimful of Asha." I loved that song, and have the album. Then I proceeded to forget about the group. Maybe time to find some of their new music.
