what's everyone listening to?

[terryg11]

for some reason I put in Beastie Boys "Ill Communication" which I havent listened to in a few years. I forgot they have some long, real groovy instrumentals on here

[tjwmason]

1. William Byrd - Mass for 5 voices.

Gorgeous piece, written under some of the most fascinating circumstances (recusant under Elizabeth I, yet still a court favourite).

[FuzzySlippers]

13. I'm listening to a mass, too.

Bach - Mass in B minor

[MissHoneychurch]

2. some 80s music on web radio

it is fun listening to

[LynneSin]

3. Anything and everything Led Zeppelin

I crunch numbers better when jamming to my favorites. Right now it's Page/Plant doing "Four Sticks" from their Unledded tour!

[LaraMN]

4. "Mom! Jack is banging things!"

and Jack's defense of his behavior:
"Maaaa! I,I,I,I,I,I,I..."

[terryg11]

6. kids are at school

otherwise I would probably be listening to a somewhat different version of that tune

[LaraMN]

7. Ahhh. I'm down one, today. Two more years and they'll ALL be in school!

:bounce: :cry:

[lizziegrace]

5. The cats

tearing through the house chasing each other. They've been so goofy the last few days.

Other than that, the quiet.

[LSK]

8. podcast of Scott Ritter vs Hitchens

After that its off to the Alito hearings.

[Lochloosa]

9. Have you tried this BB's?

In Sound From Way Out


Only instrumental. I was shocked at how good it is.

I think it's out of print.

[terryg11]

10. never seen that

you say it's good though?

[Lochloosa]

11. Excellent!

And I'm not a BB fan. My brother had it on his IPod. He is a great jazz sax player and needless to say I was shocked to see it. He just smiled and put the headphones on me. I ordered it from Alibris the next day.

[WeRQ4U]

26. Just had to show you this:

I'm interested in hearing a couple tracks from this album, so I went to Amazon. There weren't any tracks to listen to but there were really good reviews........except for one. He wrote:

"It's a shame that the Beastie Boys stole the cover art and title of Perrey & Kingsley's great album, because, unlike their music, the Beastie Boys is complete and utter trash. I would rather have my genitals nailed to a fan than listen to the Beastie Boys for ten minutes, and that's no lie."


I thought that was funny. Wrong, probably, but funny.

[Monkey see Monkey Do]

14. cspan

listening to the alito hearing.

[ghostsofgiants]

15. I just listened to The Evens' self-titled album

Ian Mackaye (of Minor Threat/Fugazi) and his wife playing relatively mellow indie rock (or whatever the fuck you'd call it). Good stuff.

[rbnyc]

16. Echo and the Bunnymen

I kid you not.

[Arugula Latte]

17. Love it!

"The Killing Moon" is one of my favorite songs.

[rbnyc]

18. They were one of my favorites in High School.

And I've been on a big 80s thing lately.

:hi:

[Arugula Latte]

21. Me too (re: 80s kick)

I think it's 'cuz I just turned 40 (literally yesterday). You kind of look back to your youth, I guess. My son is starting to roll his eyes and say: "Oh, great. More 80s music..." I don't want to be like the mom in that song "1985," so I'd better not get too carried away... :hi:

[2bfree]

19. Chuck Prophet.

He's awesome!

[khashka]

20. Dar Beida

Khash.

[mvd]

22. Today

Nickel Creek - Why Should The Fire Die? (great - equal to their other two CDs)
Veronicas - Secret Life Of.. (wonderful pop/rock)

And heard clips from a band called Stars. Their CD Set Yourself On Fire sounds beautiful.

[SofaKingLiberal]

Early Prestige sides, circa 1953. With Sweets Edison, Georgie Auld, Jimmy Rowles and Red Mitchell. Mmm.

[Gatchaman]

Operatic power metal from Europe, where all the good metal comes from.

[Mojambo]

31. Fever Tree.

It's a shame the "classic rock" format dumped them from their playlists.

[ChoralScholar]
