I liked the Sharon Jones record, but it's not her best.

I also enjoyed Psonic Psunspot - pretty good for a spoof project.

The 13th Floor Elevators are already wildly overrated - the Roky Erickson disc, what I've heard of it anyway, seems completely underwhelming.

[Gurn]

Drive By Truckers - The Big To-Do

Black Crowes - Before the Freeze

The Dexateens - Red Dirt Rising

The Hold Steady - Stay Positive

Lucero - 1372 Overton Park

Note: The Crowes and Lucero are first among equals on this list.

Note, pt. 2: Miley Cyrus? Really?

[doodad]

Webb Wilder - More like me
Unknown Hinson - Target Practice
John Hiatt - The Open Road
Kaiser Chiefs - Off with Their Heads
REM - Accelerate

can’t remember any more off the top of my head.

The Sharon Jones record is definitely more sedate than the others and not a good place to start (I had seen her a number of times over the year but picked this one up when it came out). I’ve played it through more than the others on my list.

I wanted some of the cuts from both of the Dukes of Stratosphear albums but the pressings aren’t cheap and this one had more cuts. Some of it is hit and miss for me, not as strong as the individual tracks I’d heard.

I’ve been seeing Roky’s revival shows over the past 5 years and liked them. This is new (some “salvaged”) work accompanied by Okervill River (which have been the least interesting of the performers I’ve seen backing him). It was a record store day purchase, originally the hype was the vinyl would be a RSD purchase only.

I did have another Record Store Day purchase now that I think of it, The Flaming Lips (with others) covering Dark Side of the Moon (LP + CD included).

I'll be damned if I am going to send money to an industry who is instrumental in the destruction of my country.

I also love the irony that they screamed for socialism and now their industry is being destroyed by it. I love it! love it! love it!

I like Muse, too.

[GSWarrior]

I like Lucero a lot...one of my favorites.

[SamiGirl]

Mozart Piano Concertos 15 and 27.

Mozart Piano Concerto 21 and Chopin Piano Concerto 1 performed by Dinu Lipatti.

[wku man]

They were great. Back in 1989-'90, every few months they would play a bar called Picasso's in Bowling Green, KY. I didn't realize they were from Nashville, and I remember thinking they should be on tour nationwide, not playing a little (but very cool) bar in BG. A while back I finally tracked down their CD on E-Bay, and snapped it up. Sounds just as good now as it did back then.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

[GSWarrior]

I recommend this solo release by Steve Taylor. Very much in the vein of Chagall Guevara.

[wku man]

I'll check it out. Did Dave Perkins play on it or write any of the songs?

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!

[Non-Sequitur]

People still buy CDs?

[discostu]

I bought a 9 disc Stravinsky box set recently, is that 1 or 9. Bought a bunch of other stuff (some Blood Sweat and Tears, Wings, Bob Marley, Bob Dylan and van Morrison) at the same time. And since then the wife got me Valley of Neptune (Jimi Hendrix).
