Rick Craig gave me this CD, it is really cool. It's weird like Carlman's music, jazzy in a modern way, innovative, proud, moody, smart. Incredible recording quality for a studio session.

I just picked this CD up at the library last week based on the recomendation of an earlier post on this thread. I agree with Rich, it is kind of hard to describe exactly what it is, but I like it.  :D

I feel like I kind of cheated on the tail end of Retro Weekend.  :^o

Q104.3 ws playing the Top 104 classic rock songs of all time yesterday afternoon and evening (based on a list compiled in a 2003 survey, they will be doing the 2010 list of the top 1043 song this coming Thanksgiving weekend) After pulling and swapping CDs for most of the weekend I decided why fight it and just listened to their choices for the rest of the day (which included a good amount of the things I would have played anyhow.)  8)

The station posted the list on their web site today, but unfortunately it gets blocked by the firewall here at work.  :(  I will post a link to the list as soon as I can get to it.

50% off Columbus Day sale at the Crack House today. While this meant good prices, it also meant that everybody and his brother was there, so there was lots of competition and pickings were on the slim side and I was only able to find a few CDs. (No vinyl today :cry:)

Vangelis: Mythodea



Music for the NASA Mission: 2001 Mars Odyssey

I am listening to this now on my computer speakers. Even so it sounds very "big" in nature. Almost like a new Wagner epic.

I will be interested to hear this get the full treatment in the mancave.
