Passion Pit -Manners
It's a little vintage-electronica sounding with a strong, simple beat and a vocalist style like early Modest Mouse or Wolf Parade.
An odd mix of genre falling right where I want to be right now.

Found this info on the web:
"Their self-titled first album closed out with a cut that was initially intended to be Led Zeppelin's final song but was never recorded; the Zeppelin cut was known as "Swan Song," and on the Firm's 1984 debut it was titled "Midnight Moonlight." "
Worth owning just for this cut.

Roger Waters - Amused To Death
&
The Cure - Disintegration
Waters is so freaking weird, umm... yeah. But man, he records some amazing sounds.
I had to replace my copy of Disintegration as it had not survived the many parties it has played over the years. Consequently, I had not listened to it in a long time. Good stuff.

I feel like I'm in a club when I listen to Gordon Lightfoots' music and I'm glad I'm not the last man on earth who still listens to him once in a while. "The wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald" on the sda srs2's is pretty nice...:D

Most people just listen to music and watch movies . I am glad to be a part of a select group that tries to take our auditory and visual senses to a higher level: we EXPERIENCE them.... GOT SDA?...GOT SUNFIRE? ...GOT Maggies?

Actually it is Nov. 10th, next Tuesday. Here are the lyrics to the song:
The Wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald
The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee
The lake, it is said, never gives up her dead
When the skies of November turn gloomy.
With a load of iron ore - 26,000 tons more
Than the Edmund Fitzgerald weighed empty
That good ship and crew was a bone to be chewed
When the gales of November came early
The ship was the pride of the American side
Coming back from some mill in Wisconson
As the big freighters go it was bigger than most
With a crew and good Captain well seasoned.
Concluding some terms with a couple of steel firms
When they left fully loaded for Cleveland
And later that night when the ships bell rang
Could it be the North Wind they'd been feeling.
The wind in the wires made a tattletale sound
And a wave broke over the railing
And every man knew, as the Captain did, too,
T'was the witch of November come stealing.
The dawn came late and the breakfast had to wait
When the gales of November came slashing
When afternoon came it was freezing rain
In the face of a hurricane West Wind
When supper time came the old cook came on deck
Saying fellows it's too rough to feed ya
At 7PM a main hatchway caved in
He said fellas it's been good to know ya.
The Captain wired in he had water coming in
And the good ship and crew was in peril
And later that night when his lights went out of sight
Came the wreck of the Edmund Fitzgerald.
Does anyone know where the love of God goes
When the waves turn the minutes to hours
The searchers all say they'd have made Whitefish Bay
If they'd put fifteen more miles behind her.
They might have split up or they might have capsized
They may have broke deep and took water
And all that remains are the faces and the names
Of the wives and the sons and the daughters.
Lake Huron rolls, Superior sings
In the ruins of her ice water mansion
Old Michigan steams like a young man's dreams,
The islands and bays are for sportsmen.
And farther below Lake Ontario
Takes in what Lake Erie can send her
And the iron boats go as the mariners all know
With the gales of November remembered.
In a musty old hall in Detroit they prayed
In the Maritime Sailors' Cathedral
The church bell chimed, 'til it rang 29 times
For each man on the Edmund Fitzgerald.
The legend lives on from the Chippewa on down
Of the big lake they call Gitche Gumee
Superior, they say, never gives up her dead
When the gales of November come early.
Most of them only hear how loud it sounds, and the rest of us hear everything else -
Woop's! My bad :o Was actualy listenin' to that very song/lightfoot yesterday in the truck with my pop's....
Great tune
