Unfortunately nothing as I am waiting for my M3's to get here. Can't wait!

Jane Horrocks - The Further Adventures of Little Voice

From the CD booklet: "My idea was to make a Further Adventures of Little Voice album, featuring the same stars but performing songs that they had never recorded."

How funny. I wouldn't have known they didn't sing the songs she's singing in their voices.

Also, I started listening to some Neko Case this week. Don't laugh at me, but I always assumed it was a band name. I didn't know it was her name. I just figured that since neko is cat in Japanese that the band name was referencing a box of kittens or something. Anyway, I haven't really latched onto any songs yet, but we'll see how it goes.

Which Neko Case album are you exploring? I've been a fan since The Virginian. I really love her earlier stuff. Enjoy! Now I've got pull out her CDs too!

Last night I watched the Tom Petty concert on PBS in Gainsville, FL, pretty awesome...

Right now I have Canadian Amp and Fox Confessor Brings the Flood.

I also bought a couple New Pornographers CDs.

Oh, I also bought a used copy of her live DVD, Live From Austin TX, but I won't watch that until I get my replacement amplifier.

Which New Pornographers did you get?

Electric Version and Challengers. I forget which other CDs are on the way. It was a spree.

Doesn't matter, really, they are all excellent. A very consistent band. Hope you enjoy them.

It's weird comparing Neko Case between New Pornographers and her solo stuff. From pop to alternative country she does both well.

Grab The Virginian, Furnace Room Lullaby and Blacklisted if you can. All are great, but I love Blacklisted.

New Pornographers are not comparable to Neko's solo stuff. I also have the Corn Sisters CD, which is unlike the rest too. She's a very diverse artist, which is admirable.

I've been eying that Live in Austin DVD too. Hmm, let us know your thoughts once you get your new amp.

I'm listening to the Jeff Buckley compilation called So Real which is a non-loud remaster of some of his greatest songs and some rarities. His mother was involved in making sure that it wasn't turned up the way so many remasters and recordings are these days. Here's a great article about that new and horrible phenomenon.

Randy, was that the SoundStage program?

If so, here's the DVD ... Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers SoundStage ... And again if so, I thought all of the SoundStage performances were filmed in Chicago?
