Have you read "Beneath the Underdog?"

-sm

no - i haven't sm. i have to admit that i haven't listened to any real jazz in years. i am just rediscovering the joys and a friend made me the mingus comp. i don't even know what specifically i am listening to.

interestingly enough - the first mingus compositions that i was aware of were performed by a metal(ish) band. 10-12 years ago, they did it as a side project and i just happened to catch them at one of their shows. 2 guitars, 2 basses, a hellacious percussionist and a lot of enthralled folks for 1 hour of nonstop music.

Right this second - Primal Scream Give Out But Don't Give Up (Portishead Remix)

Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy Radio Show.

And I just finished editing out the dialog from the Pulp Fiction soundtrack CD. I've got a pet peeve against breaking up a soundtrack with dialog segments.

Cool! Major Tom was one of my favorites back in the early days of MTV. But I could NOT remember the name of the song or artist! Peter Schilling sounded familiar so I Amazoned it and lo, mystery solved! I hope its in iTunes but a surprising number of early 80s stuff is not in there.

I have several of his german only release albums thanks to the magic that is half.com

Couldn't find CDs of American Releases. I loved the "Major Tom" song, but liked the other tunes on his first album so much that I wore out the cassette.

I am totally addicted to a singer called Regina Spectre. Her album Soviet Kitsche is amazing. It's not often I am moved to tears by a song, but Chemo Limousine did. Just the way she phrases things. Her songs are about real life in all its mundane grandeur. She's funny too at times and her voice is enchanting. She can rock some too. Sometimes she has a touch of the whitestripes to her.

Komeda - Kokomemedada

I picked this up after hearing one of their songs on NPR. I really don't know how to describe it, except to say that it's pop music, only... without the suck.
