I've got the gorgeous and incredibly talented Diana Krall in my living room, singing to me about The Look Of Love right now

My new MP3 player should be here today. Now I just need to steal a 19 year old kid to teach me how to use it.

I got an ipod shuffle for Christmas. I loaded albums by: Led Zepalin, Paul Simon, Eric Clapton, U2, Crosby Stills Nash and Young, Blue Rodeo, and Susan Latimer (local artist). I want to get some Tragically Hip in there too.

 

[bennybo]

FrankS... I was listening to "Road Apples" just the other day. Tragically Hip rules.

I've been on a serious alt.country bender for a few years now.

Robert Earl Keen
James McMurtry - Childish Things
Patty Griffin
Mindy Smith
Old Crow Medicine Show (Great!)
Gillian Welch (the BEST)

...are some of the recent faves...

[physiognomy]

Sublime is playing here at the moment... Then I might dig out a Bob Marley album... I'm landlocked and miss the beach! ... Bring on Summer break!!!

 

[physiognomy]

Joan Baez.

Not 'Dark Chords...' by any chance Bill? I saw her in concert at the Denver Botanic Gardens 2 summers ago... She is amazing live! Unfortunately I was in nappies in her early days, but to see her now is still really cool.

Cheers!

Has anyone watched the Bob Dylan DVD, No Direction Home? Joan Biaez figured prominently in Dylan's early years. Dylan wrote hauntingly beautiful protest songs, but bailed-out when he had the chance to make a difference. When he spoke to some government committee he was invited to, the best he could come up with was to comment on the government leaders' lack of hair. It is almost as though he was a channel for some great music, but personally was not so deep. There is some opportunity for camera-spotting in the vintage footage: Nikon F, Leica M, Rolleiflex.
