miles davis: black satin

from on the corner
i love this track, but it's better in context.
o wait...

edit: so in a self-indulgent moment, i lined up the entire first side of miles' 1972 album "on the corner"

it's my favorite miles, and a masterpiece of tape collage.

The Weakerthans - A Plea From a Cat Named Virtute

The track of the day version was the best I could find. If you don't want to hear the guy describe the song just fast forward to 59 seconds, it's where the song starts.

For you cat lovers out there, this song is written from the perspective of a cat living with a guy who appears to be going through a breakup or breakdown...

Tully Mars

I'm jealous, and I don't get jealous easily.

I saw Rush in Portland, Or. a few weeks prior to joining the Navy, 1982-3? I think they just released "Moving Pictures." I'd been to a lot of concerts by then and the usual substances made crowds fairly rowdy. Rush had no opening act, really unusual back then. Rush took the stage and I swear the for most of the show the crowd sat silent in awe of the magic occurring on stage... either that or everyone dropped the same kind of acid. I remember Peart doing well over a 15min. drum solo. It was really something to see and experience.

Enjoy yourself.

Cadence Weapon - In Search of the Youth Crew

Currently at the top of the Radio 3 Top 30... Cadence Weapon is making some excellent hip hop these days. By the way, this is a live version of the song, so the production values are not as tight as the one on the album.

the chameleons.
one of the great undervalued bands of the 80s.
a huge ice storm prevented me from seeing them live back in the day, before things went south for them. so i always hear them with a little twinge.

3 great albums then nothing. just goes to show you something or other.
