I'm always hesitant between 100th Window and Mezzanine. I think both are great works very correlated. However Blue Lines is still very special.

Example:

Diverse album with a lot of different styles. I liked it; I will check out her recent stuff

Great album! I discovered it by accident -- they were playing it at Borders and I was immediately smitten. I was informed of the Tricky connection when I asked what the album was, but was already sold.

Big Tuesday - For You - a local band comprised of a few young kids going to university here, where they get airplay on the college radio station, turning up so many times in my Shazams that I ended up buying all their downloads. Reminiscent (to me, anyway) of early Everything But The Girl:

Vega Trails: Milo Fitzpatrick (Portico Quartet) and Jordan Smart (Mammal Hands)

These people from Gondwana Records have exquisite musicians.

A fun guilty pleasure listen.... Japanese Female Pop-Punk band, Otoboke Beaver.

That Yakitori song repetitiveness reminded me of this old gem:

Is it just me and my slow computer, or is it the thread getting so huge that it takes like forever to load?

I just cleared out a bunch of boxes of my momentos, family memorabilia, and files from my parents' house that had been in boxes in front of my main rig for many months. I decided to pick a Jeff Beck album (There & Back) from my high school years to celebrate clearing it away (sadly, just into the basement--sorry Marie Kondo). I still like it, but there is a whole lot of Jan Hammer on this album!

*blessingx* · May 16, 2022

Anyone know if Jeff Beck sales ever suffered because he couldn’t fit his long name on LP covers?

I don't kn

So I am having lunch with a Whisky buddy the other day and he mentions that he was listening to one of our whisky friends in Europe's album. Album? Lars' has an album, Lars is in a band? I have not met Lars in person yet, just international zoom meetings to talk about important stuff (like whisky).

This is how I picture Lars (long beard) ... {and yes, I probably could name a lot of the whiskies by the back of the bottles}
