Little Feats/Waiting For Columbus/ Remastered: There's a fat man in the bathtub and he's got the blues...
Brian Wilson/Smile

An oldie (kinda) but a great one. Johnny Cash-"Unchained" this may be the best of the late career of JC excellent backing musicians and great sound.
Some of the most sincere/heart felt vocals from Cash to be sure.
This is late night, individual listening music at its finest. "Spiritual" is one track that stands out ,to me, as a "window" into the mind/heart of Cash at this point in his career.If ever a song sung by him could be called "sweet" then this is the track.

Dire Straights - Brothers In arms - Remaster
Fleetwood Mac - The Dance

Listening through the Carver Amazings once again but minus the Carver C-9 and loving it!
Not using the C-9 again until I upgrade the RCA jacks. Not real happy with the stockers somewhat small diameter, at least for the ICs on my main 2-ch rig.

**audiobliss** · 12-17-2005 11:19 PM

Just picked out and listened to five country songs.

The Tractors
The Blue Collar Rock (gotta be about my favorite song)
Settin' the Woods On Fire
Tryin' To Get To New Orleans

Alan Jackson
The Sounds
Designated Drinker (duet with George Strait)

"The Sounds" has really been growing on me here lately.

**BobMcG** · 12-18-2005 12:44 AM

Collective Soul - Collective Soul

The Freebe concert on Direct-TV put me in the mood for more.

**aaharvel** · 12-18-2005 12:55 AM

Nick Drake - Man in a Shed

**Tour2ma** · 12-20-2005 01:41 AM

Needed something light (due to various threads raging around here).

This fits the bill...

10cc is pretty damn fluffy actually, but kinda clever. And in the midst of the all the "stuff" out pops "I'm Not in Love"... just a drop dead gorgeous love song.

**ND13** · 12-20-2005 01:46 AM

"THE PAUL SIMON COLLECTION" - A collection of his greatest hits and very well engineered/remastered. It's a treat for the senses when played on the SDAs.

**dorokusai** · 12-20-2005 02:01 AM

Milli Vanilli - Greatest Hits

**Tour2ma** · 12-20-2005 02:08 AM

... and you're lip-sync'ing no doubt...

Now playing...
Bela Fleck and the Flecktones - Three Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

Electric banjo? Yes, but only 'cause we can...

Reminds me of Dad's boxset "Paul Simon 1964-1993." I should get that out and give it a listen sometime.

**jbowl** · 12-21-2005 10:29 AM

Clutch Robot Hive/Exodus

Funky hard rock, yeah baby :D

**Tour2ma** · 12-21-2005 04:19 PM

Arc Angels - self titled... hell it was their only one.

A couple of SRV's boys trying to keep the blues alive with help from some fresh blood. The talent was there, but the band disintegrated.

Very good stuff...

**Tour2ma** · 12-22-2005 01:41 AM

Maxwell's Urban Hang Suite

Some knucklehead gave me this almost one-year ago so I feel obligated to at least play it every late-December. :p

It has an honest to goodness, Old-School, Motown flavor to it. Takes me right back to the early 70's and my days as a feature dancer on Soul Train... the good Soul Train with Don Cornelius hosting...

Wishing you Peace, Love and So-o-o-o-o-ul-l-l-l-l-l

**Tour2ma** · 12-22-2005 02:54 AM

... and some funky Texas Blues.

Been a while Ham. Good to hear you again...

**Tour2ma** · 12-22-2005 03:11 AM

And while we are gettin' funky in the wee hours...

Maybe my favorite Little Feat release, Feats Don't Fail Me Now. For sure it holds my favorite Little Feat song, "Spanish Moon" although I like the live track on Waitin' for Columbus a bit better.

**Mike682** · 12-22-2005 08:18 PM

Last day was today, returning after New Year's. So today, I threw in the good 'ol Burl Ives Christmas CD: "Have A Holly Jolly Christmas"

That's right folks, Burl Ives. :D

**heiney9** · 12-22-2005 08:52 PM

UFO- Force It. Reminiscing a bit back to the middle school days.

H9

**Tour2ma** · 12-23-2005 01:01 AM

Just wrapped up one of the great live albums...

And now a visit from an old friend doing the one-man band thing. Been too long Todd...

**swerve** · 12-23-2005 01:06 AM

Nick Drake - Bryter Layter

**audiobliss** · 12-24-2005 11:39 PM

I just lined up a few CD's and listened to 'em on my Sony shelf system and curb-salvaged speakers. I've also listed the songs that I particulary wanted to listen to and/or stood out to me.

Dwight Yoakam - There Was A Way
The Distance Between You and Me
Since I Started Drinkin' Again
Turn It On, Turn It Up, Turn Me Loose
It Only Hurts When I Cry

I've relatively recently discovered Dwight Yoakam and have grown pretty fond of his style. I thought the chorus from It Only Hurts When I Cry was pretty cool:
"The only time I feel the pain
Is in the sunshine or the rain
And I don't feel no hurt at all
Unless you count when teardrops fall
I tell the truth 'cept when I lie
And it only hurts me when I cry"

Brad Paisley - Mud On the Tires
Mud On the Tires
That's Love
Whiskey Lullaby
The Best Thing That I Had Goin'

Eric Clapton - Pilgrim
My Father's Eyes
River of Tears

The Eagles - Hotel California
Hotel California

Alan Jackson - Drive
Bring On the Night
The Sounds
Designated Drinker

I've listened to this CD many times before, and I have almost always skipped over these three songs. But not long ago, for some reason, I listened to them, and they grabbed me. I thought (and still do) they're quite powerful, and beautiful to boot.

The tune from Bring On the Night is what catches my attention. The Sounds is just as beautiful, and it has some neat lyrics: "You can't hear it, but the noise is killing me." Then at the end, it changes to "I can hear it, and the silence is killing me." Designated Drinker is a great song, and on this CD it's a duet with George Strait - it just couldn't be any better!

George Strait - Ten Strait Hits
Baby's Gotten Good At Goodbye
What's Going On In Your World

Michael Buble - It's Time
Feeling Good
A Foggy Day (In London Town)
You Don't Know Me
Quando, Quando, Quando (Duet with Nelly Furtado)
Home

I can't express how amazed I am by Michael Buble. He's just an amazing singer. You Don't Know Me is a neat song, and so is Quando, Quando, Quando. Plus, the latter is a duet with Nelly Furtado, who I've never heard of before, but judging from her performance in this song, I want to find out more about her. And, of course, you have Home, the song I bought this CD for. Amazing song.

Anna Nalick - Wreck of the Day
Breath (2 AM)
Citadel

I'm also amazed by Anna Nalick's voice. I had planned on listening to more of the CD, but practically everything on it is good and it was getting late, so I just turned off the CD-player.

I had also planned on listening to some Jack Johnson, but I guess I'll have to let that wait until tomorrow...assuming I don't have some new CD's to listen to tomorrow...:D:D:D:D

**Tour2ma** · 12-25-2005 12:00 AM

INXS Switch

New music from 80's down under rockers INXS. Good tunes.

to early to give a detailed review yet. but so far i like what i'm hearing.

**HBombToo** · 12-25-2005 12:22 AM

The Bomb shelter is very quite with only the sounds of the lovely Sherry putting the final Bling on Santa's deliveries.
